Results and Recap from the 2012 WWE Elimination Chamber

Tonight was the final stop before Wrestlemania 28 and the Road to Wrestlemania took some interesting turns tonight. The first match was the Raw Elimination Chamber for the WWE Title. In my opinion this was the better of the two Chamber matches. The story here was Chris Jericho being taken out of the match by a stretcher meaning he was never pinned or submitted. I believe he will use this to advance his storyline with CM Punk. As for Punk he proved tonight he was a top guy. He started first and went the distance. He’s not a legend yet but his reign as WWE Champion is starting to become legendary.

The second match featured Beth Phoenix and Tamina Snuka for the Diva’s title. This was actually a good Diva’s match and I don’t say that often. Beth retains the title and one has to wonder who is left for her to face? Maybe Michael Cole has the answer.

It appears headed into Wrestlemania both Johnny Ace and Teddy Long are pushing themselves to run both shows. Mark Henry, Alberto Del Rio and Christian are all in support of Johnny Ace. I could see at Wrestlemania Team Long vs. Team Ace for control of the WWE.

It is hard to believe that the dark match of Wrestlemania 27 is now a main event match at Wrestlemania 28. Daniel Bryan succcesfully defended his title in the Smackdown Elimination Chamber match. He had a took a huge beating for Barrett and Big Show which proves he’s tough. After the match Sheamus came out and cleaned house signifying that he will take on Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania 28.

The worst part of the show was the fact that John Cena and Kane was the last match. This match had me uninterested from the start. Everyone knew Cena was going to win and then set his sights on The Rock. The last image you should have seen tonight was Daniel Bryan being attacked by Sheamus which adds more buildup to their match.

All in all it was an okay pay-per-view. It’s nothing worth bragging about or getting excited over. I do think the next 6 weeks of WWE Television is going to interesting to watch. The Road to Wrestlemania 28 continues on and the fireworks will begin.
