Elimination Chamber Sun Feb 17 8E/5P

The elimination chamber is one of my favorite gimmick matches, so I always like this PPV. Hopefully we end up getting two EC matches rather than just the one that's officially scheduled.

Here's the tentative card:

WWE Championship
(If Rock is counted out or DQ'd, Punk wins the WWE Title)
The Rock (c) vs. CM Punk

6-Man Tag Team Match (possible second EC match)
The Shield vs. John Cena, Sheamus & Ryback

World Heavyweight Championship
Alberto Del Rio (c) vs. Big Show

World Heavyweight Championship #1 Contender Elimination Chamber Match
Randy Orton vs. Jack Swagger vs. Chris Jericho vs. Mark Henry vs. Kane vs. Daniel Bryan

United States Championship
Antonio Cesaro (c) vs. The Miz

Divas Championship
Kaitlyn (c) vs. Tamina Snuka

Youtube Pre-Show Match
Brosai vs. Rhodes Scholars

That's a pretty strong card for a B-level PPV if you ignore the pre-show match, Divas match, and the fact that ADR and Show is going to be anti-climactic as it's a regular singles match following two LMS matches. Why they couldn't have had a WHC chamber match with those two inserted and Hell No removed is a head-scratcher. Maybe the plan is to have Ziggles cash in.

Who else is pumped?

I'm excited, looks like a pretty good card. It will be interesting to see the 3 on 3 EC match if that is how it goes, I don't think any titles will change hands but Ziggler cashing in wouldn't surprise me.

Who does everyone think will win the number 1 contender EC? I'm guessing Mark Henry

Only way I could see title changes hands is if Brock comes out and attacks punk automatically awarding punk the title back. And if that's the case, it'd be a 3 way for the title and I'd guess Taker isn't performing at mania

Jericho if Ziggler cashes in, Henry or Swagger if he doesn't.

Henry would seem like the logical choice for Chamber winner. He's being booked super-strong since his return which sets up for a win in this match. Swagger's new character would seem to foreshadow a feud with ADR, but I think that's probably a couple months down the line. I think he gets built up a bit more before that feud.

I'm fine with Swagger now. Swagger w Zeb vs Del Rio w Ricardo at Mania. I like.

First option is Bryan winning EC, and Mr. Ziggy cashin in on Del Rio. Ziggler-Bryan for the WHC at Mania. AJ gets involved again, costing Bryan another title at WM.

I am predicting a Cena heel turn at long last. Key moment of the match he attacks Ryback to help the Shield win. Cena immediately takes over the Shield

I'm not against it but I think it should be put off until later. Doing it 2-3 months from now, Swagger and Colter would be more over, ADR would be a stronger champion and the feud wouldn't get lost in the shuffle of Mania

I was thinking the samething with D-Bry and Ziggler for the title. I could also seem them do like Swagger vs Del Rio with a big build up leading to Mania in a flag match or something.

If someone could PM me a ________ when the show stars I'll be very appreciative. I was going to straight up order it and watch it in HD, but I want to watch the ASG at the same time.

I'm going to take a stab in the dark and say this will be more fun than the ASG.

You don't know what they're saying, Cole. If you did, you would know they were making fun of you.

Glad they opened with this, it will lead to a hint at the EC.
