The 2019 Elimination Chamber (known as No Escape in Germany) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming event produced by WWE, held for wrestlers from the promotion's main roster brands, Raw, SmackDown, and 205 Live. It was the ninth Elimination Chamber event and took place on February 17, 2019, at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas. The event centered on the Elimination Chamber match, a type of roofed steel cage that surrounds the ring and ringside area with no disqualifications; the objective is to eliminate all other opponents either by pinfall or submission with championship implications at stake.
Seven matches were contested at the event, including one on the Kickoff pre-show. Two Elimination Chamber matches were held, including the main event in which Daniel Bryan defeated AJ Styles, Samoa Joe, Kofi Kingston, Randy Orton, and Jeff Hardy to retain SmackDown's WWE Championship. In the other, which was the opening bout and was an interbrand women's tag team Elimination Chamber match, Raw's The Boss 'n' Hug Connection (Bayley and Sasha Banks) defeated the teams of Nia Jax and Tamina and The Riott Squad (Liv Morgan and Sarah Logan) from Raw and the teams of Carmella and Naomi, Mandy Rose and Sonya Deville, and The IIconics (Billie Kay and Peyton Royce) from SmackDown to become the inaugural holders of the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship. In other prominent matches, Finn Bálor defeated defending champion Bobby Lashley and Lio Rush in a 2-on-1 handicap match to win Raw's Intercontinental Championship and Ronda Rousey defeated Ruby Riott to retain the Raw Women's Championship.
Following the discontinuation of brand-exclusive PPV and livestreaming events for the main roster under the second brand split after WrestleMania 34 in April 2018, this was the first Elimination Chamber event since 2011 to feature multiple brands during a brand split. It was also the first to feature three brands.
