Elimination Chamber will feature three women's matches - the most at a WWE event in Saudi Arabia.

The women of RAW will take part in a Chamber Match to determine the number one contender for Becky Lynch's (or Lita's) title heading into WrestleMania. Also, Ronda Rousey will team with Naomi against Charlotte Flair and Sonya Deville.

Ever since Natalya and Lacey Evans squared off at Crown Jewel 2019, women have been featured more and more in Saudi Arabia. This is yet another positive step in that respect.
