Reviews

Owen Ogletree As the final stop before WrestleMania 24, this show was surprisingly good. Both Elimination Chamber matches delivered, as did the Cena/Orton match.ECW Championship Match: Chavo Guerrero (c) vs. CM Punk - This was a TV quality match, nothing more. These two are capable of much better, in my opinion. Chavo Guerrero retains with the Frog Splash. RATING: **Elimination Chamber Match to Become the #1 Contender for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania 24: The Undertaker vs. Batista vs. The Great Khali vs. Big Daddy V vs. MVP vs. Finlay - This EC match was very good, but it would have been better without Great Khali and Big Daddy. They weren't in there for very long, and they felt like a waste of time. The rest of the competitors did a good job, though, and the sequences between The Undertaker and Batista were especially thrilling. The Undertaker wins by last eliminating Batista with a Tombstone Piledriver. RATING: ***3/4Career Threatening Match: Ric Flair vs. Mr. Kennedy - Average match. It was just a filler bout for the most part, and these two don't have much chemistry. Ric Flair wins with the Figure Four Leg Lock. RATING: **1/2World Heavyweight Championship Match: Edge (c) vs. Rey Mysterio - A very disappointing match. It was way too short for a world title match, and it never kicked into second gear. They were perhaps limited due to Rey's injury. Their match from the Royal Rumble was much better. Edge retains with a Spear in mid-air. RATING: *3/4WWE Championship Match: Randy Orton (c) vs. John Cena - This is one of the better matches in the Cena/Orton saga, in my opinion. There was some solid storytelling and some well-done near-falls. The ending however, sucked. Being done for storyline purposes doesn't make it any less irritating. Randy Orton retains his championship by intentionally disqualifying himself. RATING: ***1/2Elimination Chamber Match to Become the #1 Contender for the WWE Championship at WrestleMania 24: Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho vs. JBL vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Umaga - This is one of the top 5 EC matches of all time, in my opinion. The action is non-stop and everyone gets to shine in this match. Umaga, in particular, put on a truly show-stopping performance, and the final sequence between Jeff Hardy and Triple H was fantastic. Triple H wins with a Pedigree on a steel chair. RATING: ****1/2While weighed down by a lacking undercard and a disappointing Edge/Mysterio match, the Cena/Orton match and the two Chamber matches make this show worth your time.RATING: B
kliko400 When I found out that there were going to be 2 elimination chambers in one night, i was had high hopes and was looking forward to this one, since Elimination Chamber is one of my favourite WWE Gimmick matches.FIRST MATCH- CHAVO GUERRERO {CHAMPION} VS. CM PUNK FOR THE ECW CHAMPIONSHIP A solid opener in which I was not too disappointed with. However it could have gone for at least a couple of more minutes, The crowd also played a role in this one, as Chavo is supposed to be the heel, but the fans were chanting for him anyway. Chavo wins after hitting Punk with the Frog Splash. 5/10SECOND MATCH- UNDERTAKER VS. BATISTA VS. FINLAY VS. MVP VS. GREAT KHALI VS. BIG DADDY V IN A 6 MAN ELIMINATION CHAMBER MATCH WINNER BECOMES NO. 1 CONTENDER AND FACES WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION AT WRESTLEMANIA 24 It started off a bit slow which is no surprise considering Great Khali and Big Daddy V were put into this match {Why couldn't they put Kane or Shelton Benjamin instead}. This match had it's moments {Like MVP getting choke slammed of the pod, and Batista spinebustering Big Daddy V}. Overall I was quite impressed with this match, but it could have been more exciting and brutal like most Elimination Chamber matches should. Undertaker wins after a Tombstone on Batista. 6/10THIRD MATCH- MR. KENNEDY VS. RIC FLAIR IN A CAREER THREATENING MATCH IF RIC FLAIR LOSES HE HAS TO RETIRE FROM WRESTLING The most predictable match on the card. In my opinion this match was quite boring and most times very slow. Kennedy should have been in one of the Chamber matches, as he is a wrestler with absolute potential. Very slow and most times boring, Flair wins after Kennedy taps out to a Figure 4 Leg Lock. 4/10FOURTH MATCH- EDGE {CHAMPION} VS. REY MYSTERIO FOR THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP Surprisingly one of the shortest matches on the card all because of Mysterio's bicep injury. Had it not been for his injury, this match could of been a great match, possibly better than their match at The Royal Rumble. Edge wins after spearing Mysterio in mid-air. Afterwards Big Show returns and starts assaulting Mysterio, which leads to Floyd Mayweather to come and hit a series of punches on Big Show's face which makes him bleed. Not a bad segment, and very surprised that Big Show has returned. 4/10FIFTH MATCH- RANDY ORTON {CHAMPION} VS. RANDY ORTON FOR THE WWE CHAMPIONSHIP Their match at Summerslam the past year was absolutely one of the best wrestling matches I have seen in quite a while. Too bad this one did not stand out as it could of been. Both of these men are no doubt the future of the WWE, and there are still way more matches in them. This match was pretty much mediocre to say the least, but it was pretty entertaining nonetheless. Orton gets himself intentionally disqualified after slapping the referee, Cena wins by DQ but Orton is still champion. 5/10SIXTH MATCH- TRIPLE H VS. JEFF HARDY VS. JBL VS. CHRIS JERICHO VS. SHAWN MICHAELS VS. UMAGA Hands down this is the match of the night and even possibly match of the year. Amazing elimination chamber match with great wrestling and incredible spots like Umaga slamming Jericho through the glass, and Hardy swanton of the top pod. Excellent match which was more superior than the Smackdown elimination chamber. It was obvious HHH was going to win, HHH wins after hitting a Pedigree on Jeff Hardy on the steel chair. 7/10As there were 2 elimination chambers in one night, I had very high expectations for this event, especially since it was the last one before Wrestlemania. I was not disappointed at all, but I thought that some of the matches could of took a bit longer such as the World Heavyweight title match or the Raw elimination match. Overall a very exciting event which only makes WWE fans look more forward towards the Road To Wrestlemania.Overall I'll give it a 7/10 and a C+
jts0405 This show would be technically considered average if it had just a bunch of grudge matches, challenges and title matches like normal WWE events. The reason I give this an above average is because it was the first time we saw more than one Elimination Chamber and it was also the first time we have seen an Elimination Chamber match since December 2006 at ECW's December to Dismember.Match 1: Chavo Guerrero vs. CM Punk for ECW Championship - This rivalry is the first of many rivalries that ensued for ECW in 2008. This contest was for the ECW Championship that Chavo took from Punk back in January. This contest was a very good one, Punk really showed that he wanted the title back. For the total of 7 minutes and 6 seconds that this was we really saw them do as much as they could to entertain. Punk goes for the three amigos on Chavo, but gets a very bad reception from the crowd. In the end Chavo picks up the clean win against Punk to retain the ECW title.Match 2: Undertaker vs. Batista vs. Finlay vs. MVP vs. The Great Khali vs. Big Daddy V in the SmackDown/ECW Elimination Chamber - The winner of this first Elimination Chamber will be receiving a World Heavyweight Championship match at Wrestlemania. So this basically starts with the two biggest stars in the match, Undertaker and Batista. The two take it to each other until Big Daddy V enters the match. For an ECW superstar Big Daddy V sure does spend a lot of time on the other brand, but nevertheless so much for adding ECW into the Elimination Chamber title, because as quick as he enters the match he is soon eliminated by Batista following a DDT on the steel floor by Undertaker. Then we follow with the second giant entering the match, The Great Khali. A whole bunch of 'you can't wrestle chants'. He goes out quickly as well due to the Undertaker's new submission hold called the Gogoplata. After the eliminations of Khali and Big Daddy V we are joined in the match by MVP and Finlay. So after Undertaker hits a reverse chokeslam off the pod into the ring on MVP we see Finlay take the easy pin to eliminate MVP. Nearly two minutes later Finlay is chokeslammed onto the steel floor and eliminated by the Undertaker. They really should've just put Batista and The Undertaker in this as just a one on one match, it would've been more entertaining. Anyway these two battle back and forth for at least 5 more minutes until Undertaker hits a tombstone and pins Batista. Undertaker is going to battle for the World Heavyweight Championship at Wrestlemania.Match 3: Ric Flair vs. Mr. Kennedy in a Career Threatening match - They made Mr. Kennedy play the fact that he was offered a shot in the Raw Elimination Chamber, but he turned it down to face Flair. I honestly don't think somebody would turn down a title shot opportunity like that, but I don't write for WWE. Nobody saw Flair going out until Wrestlemania, so we all knew that just like with MVP at the Royal Rumble, Flair was going to keep his career alive. In the end he defeats Kennedy, big surprise.Match 4: Edge vs. Rey Mysterio for the World Heavyweight Championship - This was a Royal Rumble rematch after Edge successfully retained against Mysterio at that event. This wasn't as good as their Rumble contest and it was a hell of a lot shorter. I have to hand it to Rey Mysterio because the guy competed with an injury he had just recently sustained. Even though the match didn't deliver I still applaud Mysterio for wrestling. In the end Edge hits a spear as Mysterio is in mid air, just like at the Rumble, for the win. Edge retains once again.Match 5: Randy Orton vs. John Cena for the WWE Championship - I personally found this to be ridiculous to have the Royal Rumble winner challenging for the title not at Wrestlemania. Orton really was one of Raw's most dominant champions and he actually retained against different competitors, unlike SmackDown were everybody has to end up defending against Batista every month. This was a very good match for the WWE Championship. Cena was more out for revenge instead of the title. In the end Orton gets himself disqualified to keep the title. Cena is irate.Match 6: Triple H vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Jeff Hardy vs. JBL vs. Umaga vs. Chris Jericho in the Raw Elimination Chamber match - This match had the best culmination of athletes put together to wrestle. Umaga was absolutely unreal in this one, he took it to almost everyone. First to go is JBL, who is hit by a Code Breaker from Jericho. Then he is followed by the dominant Umaga, who gets hit by everyone else's finishing move. Jericho shortly then goes after a sweet chin music by Michaels, in which Hardy covers him. Then in a strange turn of events Michaels is out as well following a twist of fate then a pedigree. We are down to Hardy and Triple H. When we believe Hardy is getting that opportunity to go to Wrestlemania we are thrown a curve ball when Triple H hits a pedigree on a steel chair. Triple H is going to battle for the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania.
nvillesanti I have been a fan of the WWE since the 80s and I have seen the best come and go but I haven't seen the WWE for year now because of John Cena. In my opinion Cena is not good enough to be so famous but well… like WrestleMania its close, I decided to see "No Way Out" just to see who's who in wrestling. The matches... Well the Match between Punk and Guerrero was pretty decent but nothing especial. Smackdown Elimination match was pretty good. At first was a little slow but when the other superstars got in the ring it got better. The Undertaker is going to WrestleMania against Edge for the title. The Undertaker can still kick butt. Kennedy vs. Flair was very stupid. Flair should retire. I know a lot of fans find amusing to see Flair wrestle at his old age, but Flair doesn't need to prove that he was one of the greatest. It is Time to pass the torch. Misterio vs Edge was very lame match, the only thing that saved the match was the return of Big Show. Orton vs. Cena for the WWE title was a very boring match. But it looks like people are starting to love Cena. I don't know what happen to Orton he used to be such a good wrestler. He has become slower. Now Raw Elimination chamber was really good. You had the best the WWE had to offer. Umaga's double Samoan drop was pretty cool. Jeff Hardy was pretty impressive and all the other. HHH ruled the night. Bottom line, Raw Elimination Chamber match was the best of the night. I just hope that WWE gets better because this pass year wasn't very good. Let's just see what happens in WrestleMania.
