Bischoff said that WWE should pit The Rock against Roman at Elimination Chamber. He said, “So, I think where I’d like to see Rock, Roman is in Perth.” WWE will host its Elimination Chamber PLE at Optus Stadium, Perth, Australia on 24th February.
Bischoff further explained the rationale behind his selection. He said, “And certainly, with Rock there in Perth, it sets a stage for future international growth and I think that’s, I’m guessing, a big part of the strategy.” As per Bischoff, The Rock’s appearance at EC would boost the stakes for the PLE and help WWE’s business globally.
