Match, Replacement Confirmed\"\/><\/p>\n<p>                    WWE<\/p>\n<p>A WWE star has officially been removed from tomorrow night\u2019s men\u2019s Elimination Chamber match in Chicago, Illinois.<\/p>\n<p>Tonight\u2019s pre-Chamber edition of SmackDown kicked off with footage showing Jey Uso being loaded into an ambulance after being attacked backstage.<\/p>\n<p>Uso had qualified for the Elimination Chamber match this past Monday on Raw after WWE was forced to change plans due to a mid-match injury to Bronson Reed, who was supposed to win their qualifier.<\/p>\n<p>Who Will Replace Jey Uso At WWE Elimination Chamber<\/p>\n<p>Throughout tonight\u2019s show, WWE SmackDown General Manager Nick Aldis had been trying to figure out how to fill Uso\u2019s spot in the Chamber.<\/p>\n<p>The first man to request Uso\u2019s spot was The Vision\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/wrestletalk.com\/topic\/logan-paul\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Logan Paul<\/a>, with Aldis saying he would consider it but had to make some calls.<\/p>\n<p>Later, Aldis was talking to Jacob Fatu, who had been with Uso and blamed WWE Champion Drew McIntyre for the attack, pointing out that McIntyre also attacked Fatu himself a few months ago.<\/p>\n<p>Fatu then requested a spot in the Chamber to help Aldis deal with the McIntyre problem by earning a WWE Title shot against McIntyre at WrestleMania.<\/p>\n<p>Aldis again said he would consider it but had to make more calls.<\/p>\n<p>Later, Aldis spoke to The Vision and said that, after agreeing with Raw General Manager Adam Pearce, Logan Paul will face <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wwe.com\/superstars\/jacob-fatu\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Jacob Fatu<\/a> tonight, and the winner of that will be Uso\u2019s replacement in the Elimination Chamber match.<\/p>\n<p>UPDATE: It was Logan Paul who picked up the win over Fatu to qualify after Drew McIntyre attacked Fatu.<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the men\u2019s Chamber field is made up of Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, LA Knight, Trick Williams and Je\u2019Von Evans.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wrestlingmasterclass.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow
