The 2024 Elimination Chamber was a fan fest. The match card looked strong with three title defenses, two Elimination Chamber matches, and the much-awaited Grayson Waller Effect segment. While Perth was full of big WWE stars, fans still had some expectations. One such expectation was to see Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson who recently became a member of The Bloodline.

But when one Australian fan decided to ask The Judgment Day’s Finn Balor whether Johnson would show up for the Elimination Chamber, he received a reply that he was not expecting to hear.

A video is now circulating on social media in which Balor could be seen walking on a beach in Perth, Australia, along with British Strong Style‘s Pete Dunne and Tyler Bate. In the clip, a fan approached Balor to ask whether The Brahma Bull would be present at the Elimination Chamber. To this the former Demon replied by saying, “No, he is one lazy motherf****r.”

The fan then went on to ask whether Roman Reigns will make an appearance at the Premium Live Event. Balor again replied with a no. It is hard to say whether Balor was being in his usual heel persona or was taking a friendly jab at Johnson. But maybe Balor won’t think about it much as he had his Undisputed Tag Team Championship title defense coming up.
