During the Elimination Chamber Press Event, Michael Cole said it took a month for the structure to arrive and had to be rerouted due to pirates.

"The structure took over a month to get here. Originally it was supposed to ship through the Suez Canal, but pirates made sure that didn't happen. So it was sent to Miami, it was then shipped by truck to Los Angeles, put on a ship to Sydney, sent on a train to Perth, and now the Elimination Chamber is being constructed as we speak," said Cole.

Corey Graves checked in with Cole to make sure he said "pirates."

He did, in fact, say pirates.

Fortunately, the structure arrived and WWE Elimination Chamber can take place.
