Update: Rusev has officially been scratched from the Elimination Chamber PPV, WWE announced shortly before Sunday's event.

Rusev was scheduled for the Intercontinental Title Elimination Chamber match, but WWE says Rusev has "not been medically cleared to compete" after suffering a reported injury at Tuesday's Smackdown TV taping.

WWE did not announce who will replace Rusev in the Chamber match.
