Don’t Get Eliminated!
Last night, the Elimination Chamber took place and started putting the WrestleMania picture into focus. Who was able to walk into the demonic structure and walk out champion? Find out right here:

QUICK THOUGHTS:
The show in itself was average at best. The two chamber matches stole the show, and took up a good hour and a half of the PPV broadcast. The impromptu match with The Miz and MVP didn’t completely surprise me, and it was a welcome sight. The Miz is always entertaining to me. The impromptu match between Cena and Batista on the other hand really just pissed me off. I wasn’t as pissed off as I thought I’d be when Cena won the title, but when Batista came out for the “match” I was really upset. I hate when WWE does this to champions after they just went through hell.
One thing we did see tonight was the betrayal of DiBiase when he hit Orton with a lead pipe in the Chamber match. Cody Rhodes came down to the ring with the weapon hoping Ted or Randy would use it to eliminate Cena, but DiBiase decided to use it to his advantage and attacked not just Cena, but Orton as well.
The women’s match was an absolute joke, total waste of time, and stupid! How is it that when Vickie Guerrero wants to make a match on a PPV she can with the RAW diva’s? That makes no sense when she’s co-GM of Smackdown… UGHHH!!!
Oh, and did anyone else hear or see the video of The Undertaker getting burned from his pyro? A friend brought it to my attention. There was a video on Youtube that I was going to post, but WWE pulled it down already, assholes!
Well, this week should be interesting to see all the fall out from the Chamber. I think we all know who Edge is going to choose to be his opponent at WrestleMania, but we’ll see for certain on RAW. Till then…
