WWE ELIMINATION CHAMBER Official Discussion Thread (February 17, 2013)

[AJ]

What if he is eliminated before they enter or vice-versa?

[womenwrestlerfan]

Hey guys, we could see some possibilities for Wrestlemania after this PPV

Like for instance:

Could we be seeing another Cena/Punk Match for the WWE Heavyweight Championship or will we see Rock/Cena II Match, this time for the WWE Heavyweight Championship?

and also, what about the following possibilities for the WORLD Heavyweight Championship?

Could we be seeing another Big Show/Mark Henry Match?

Could we be seeing another Big Show/Jack Swagger Match?

Could we be seeing another Alberto Del Rio/Randy Orton Match?

Could we be seeing another Big Show/Kane Match?

Could we be seeing Daniel Bryan against Show or Del Rio?

Could we be seeing another Big Show/Jericho Match?

or could we be possibly be seeing another match between Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho?

That's the Question!

This is WWE kid, they hardly make sense anaymore

First of all, don't call me a "Kid", I've been here a lot longer than you have. Second of all, don't go shifting the buck on WWE for your mistake. Whether or not they make any sense anymore has nothing to do with your response to me. You were proven wrong, and now you're just trying to make excuses. Third of all, don't tell me to "Deal with it" when obviously YOU'RE the one who's having trouble dealing with it. It doesn't help that you used a picture with someone as unimportant as Kanye West.

Mark Henry - THAT'S WHAT HE DO!!!!

[Darth Shizzel]

Shocked that Henry was eliminated honestly thought he would be the guy to win the chamber but oh well.

[Shockage]

He still left the bodies broken!!!!!!!

[The Canadian Superstar]

This year's Elimination Chamber is a lot like Fully Loaded 2000. Both have three main event calibre matches, one of which is a Rock title defence where he can loss the title by Disqualification.

[Darth Shizzel]

Not liking this its looking like a squash for the shield and crowd reaction for Ryback is not good he needs a new feud asap.

[Mr. Tambourine Man]

Wow. Way to go WWE. That's the second time The Shield have come out of a six man on top. Looks like they learned from the mistake they made with Nexus. Bravo.

[Qore The Conqueror]

Good Six-Men Tag Team Match.. Good to see The Shield came on top, this could lead to a different ways, leading up to Wrestlemania, IMO.. As the comentators pointed out, you could see the unity The Shield has, and that was the edge they needed..

The Rock vs CM Punk, I think it was better than the first one, a faster pace, and a good action through most of the match.. Quick note, on RR the announcer table broke before it suppose, tonight it didn't..

Pretty good show overall, nothing to be amazed but I believe, at the end accomplish what it suppose to do, put the main event for WM, and open the lines for other possible feuds and matches for Mania..

[Shockage]

lol @ Rock beating CM Punk again.

[Shockage]

I really want to see the 2 Nation alumni, The Rock and Mark Henry battle it out for the WWE Title at WrestleMania 29. Who cares about John Cena! "THAT'S WHAT I DO!"

[Goldie79]

Jack Swagger ... the WWE's jobber to the midcarders gets plucked from nowhere to get a Wrestlemania title shot?
That baffled me.

[AJ]

^ Maybe he will end up same as Bryan did last year, maybe even shorter than that. Perhaps the World Heavyweight title is cursed somehow

[metfan51]

I guess we should have seen it coming. Swagger's manager made that controversial promo last week, saying he sees people that don't look like him. Del Rio is the World Champion. The WWE kept having Big Show refer to Del Rio has a hero to Latino people. I don't think I would do it at WrestleMania and I really don't have any interest in that match at all. It's one of those weird instances. Both are very good wrestlers but facing off doesn't do anything for me.

[WWE Gary]

Ridiculous .....Jack Swagger winning the Chamber match and now going onto Wrestlemania . Nuts .....there is no way he deserves that . The guy may be one of the most overrated wrestlers in WWE ever . Having said that the new angle with Uncle Zeb should go down well . Controversy always does an struggling mid carder some favors .They could have still worked the feud with Del Rio but not in a World title match . Imo , Del Rio isn't even deserving of The Big Gold Belt .

I was a little disappointed . What I wanted to see was Ziggler cash in and win the belt and Jericho win the Chamber . Jericho v Ziggler at Mania ,perhaps with a ladder match stipulation , would have rocked. Instead we get some Mexican aristocrat who now wants to be cool against some guy nobody gives a damn about . Man , I remember when Wrestlemania use to something special .

[AJ]

Okay I agree with your argument mostly but I disagree somewhat. First, Swagger is one hell of good wrestler with amateur background. He has some great ground based tactics (just take his matches on ECW) but the way WWE treated him was awful and now they wanna redeem him just like that by putting him in Wrestlemania main event Ipso-facto. And as far as Del-Rio is concerned, there is no doubt about his wrestling abilities there but WWE screwed him up by turning him face with little or no success. Now the guy is stuck somewhere in the middle. I don't rather I can't buy him as a face. If built properly, this would been one darn good mania headline but no what we have is just two guys thrown together randomly. Sure they have about 2 months to build up there's nothing there to begin with, It's gonna be lame and far-fetched.

[Mr. Tambourine Man]

The World Heavyweight Championship is the equivalent to an IC title now that the brand-split is gone. It doesn't really matter who's challenging for it. Last year at Elimination Chamber, Santino Morella was on the verge of beating Daniel Bryan for it in the chamber and then Bryan lost it in 18 seconds the next month in the opener of WrestleMania...

I do like the idea of Jack Swagger vs. Alberto Del Rio. Both are great wrestlers. Del Rio's got that shooting background and of course Swagger was a real wrestler. The Zeb Coulter/Ricarda Rodriguez interaction will be comedic gold as well. But like AJ said above, their momentum isn't in the right place for this to be a great main event.

[AJ]

All this stuff raises one question? What's in it for Dolph Ziggler? I mean the way they are building him or not building him points to nowhere right now

[The Indy Junkie]

Maybe he'll be the first man to forget to cash in the case

[AJ]

Speaking of case, have you seen the condition of that thing? Looks like Big E Sat on it

[womenwrestlerfan]

Well I'm no fan of Mark Henry, but I was stunned to see him be Eliminated, I was also stunned that Jack Swagger won the match

The WORLD Heavyweight Championship to me needs to be unified with the WWE Heavyweight Championship

and I was also stunned that The Shield has once again won another 6-Man Match against Ryback

and I'm not surprised about The Rock winning the Match

[The Indy Junkie]

since the brand extension no longer really exists I am surprised the World titles were not unified. I mean they have had a few chances to set it up

[TheGame]

i'm really not looking forward to Mania this year. the TWICE IN A LIFETIME main event is really getting me down. it's getting me down because It's a rehash of last year and the fact that THE ROCK of all people will be used as a transitional champion for Cena.

to be honest, i wasn't too happy about The Rock winning the title, but i would have liked it more had Cena not won the Rumble. ugh.

anyway, onto the good news:
IT'S SWAGGIE TIME!!!
Swaggie vs Del Rio should be a good match, the Anti-Foreigner American vs the Mexican World Champion will be great.

also the inevitable Kane vs D-Bry WM match should be good too.

it's just TWICE IN A LIFETIME...i can't be doing with it...

also, the Del Rio botch was great.

And then the rock will have another Movie to promote and thrice in a lifetime then maybe WWE will realize once the made made it happen more than once was stupid.
