WWE's Elimination Chamber was a huge event for the company, marking their first PLE in Australia in more than five years. It also represented a homecoming for several stars, including Rhea Ripley, Grayson Waller and Indi Hartwell.

One Aussie superstar who did not make the trip was Bronson Reed, who vied for a spot in the men's Elimination Chamber match but lost to Bobby Lashley a couple weeks ago. The apparent snub raised questions among fans who wondered why he was being excluded from the PLE when it obviously would have been a big deal for him -- as it was for Ripley, Waller and Hartwell.

Saturday, Reed himself weighed in with an explanation, and it's cause for celebration:

So there you go. No conspiracy or effort to keep him down, just happy news for the new parents. Triple H sent his congratulations along, noting that "You’re exactly where you needed to be!" That's a welcome and refreshing view for a company that previously would have expected an expectant or new father to put his family on the back burner for the show.
