WWE Elimination Chamber Results and Recap

Last night was the WWE Elimination Chamber and a lot of things happened. The first match of the night was the Raw Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Championship. Alot of things happening in this match. It was the first time all 6 men were in the Chamber at once. That’s never happened before to my knowledge. Ted Dibiase eliminated Randy Orton with use of a led pipe brought down to the ring by Cody Rhodes. Kofi Kingston eliminated DiBiase shortly there after and Kofi was quickly eliminated by Sheamus. The last three were Sheamus, John Cena and Triple H. Sheamus looked like he was going to beat Cena then Triple H low blowed him and Pedigreed him for the pin. It came down to Cena and Triple H and it was another classic battle with Cena defeated Triple H with the STFU to become the new WWE Champion. After the match was over Vince McMahon congratulated Cena and said he had to defend the title against Batista righ now. Batista came in and destroyed Cena to become the new WWE Champion.

Next up was Drew McIntrye against Kane for the IC Championship. It was a solid contest that saw Drew take some shortcuts to win the match and retain his title. After that match it was suppose to be Gail Kim taking on Maryse for the Divas Championship but Vickie Guerrero made it a tag match between the Smackdown Divas against the the two Raw Divas. Michelle McCool and Layla beat Gail and Maryse.

A lot of stuff happened after that with William Regal being interupted by Edge and being speared. Miz and MVP had a backstage confrontation which led to their United States title match. It was a very good match that saw a lot interference from the Big Show and Mark Henry. Miz retained his title and will probably have a big role in Wrestlemania.

The Main Event of the evening was the Smackdown Elimination Chamber for the World Heavyweight Championship. The match started off with R-Truth and CM Punk with Punk eliminating Truth before anyone could get in. Then it was Mysterio who entered next and didn’t waste much time eliminating CM Punk. Jericho came in, and the Morrison. The three men were put on some highlights for the match with their high flying skills. Morrison eliminated Mysterio before The Undertaker entered. Undertaker beat up on Jericho and then took out Morrison with a chokeslam to the steel. It came down to Undertaker and Chris Jericho. Undertaker looked like he had the match won until Shawn Michaels sneaked into the chamber and superkicked the Undertaker giving Chris Jericho the World Heavyweight Championship.

Last night WWE did a lot to give us shock value but I really didn’t buy into it. The only two good matches were the chamber matches and they were just okay. I am so sick on the PG and no blood thing, it’s getting a little cheesy. What ever happened to the WWE of the 90’s where they would push the edge, be controversial and do crazy things. They need to have a great Wrestlemania this year otherwise they should just write off the rest of the year.

Speaking of Wrestlemania 26, here is the rumored matches for Wrestlemania 26 based on what I’ve seen, read or heard.

-The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels
-Chris Jericho vs. Edge – World Heavyweight Title
-John Cena/Bret Hart vs. Batista/Vince McMahon – WWE Title
Whoever gets the pinfall or submission wins the match and WWE Title
-Triple H vs. Sheamus
-Cody Rhodes vs. Ted DiBiase vs. Randy Orton – The Fathers Of All Three Men Will Be In Their Corners.
-Hair vs. Mask- CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio.

That’s 6 matches right there and all of them have a chance to be great but without Money in the Bank where does that leave guys like Matt Hardy, Kofi Kingston, Christian, and a whole bunch of other guys. It should be very interested. Keep checking back for my extended coverage on Wrestlemania 26.
