    Fairly shíte looking PPV.

    Shayna is a foregone conclusion.

    Miz/Morrison just won the titles, they're not losing them right away.

    Same with Street Profits. Owens will interfere and cost Rollins.

    Taker shenanigans in Black/AJ.

    Zero interest in Andrade/Toyota Corolla.

    No other women's chamber?
    When did the Kabuki Warriors last defend the title?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,466 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Might be more matches added on SD tomorrow night

    I'll tune in Sunday anyhow

    They should of announced Orton appearing at this doing some promo or some random match but Edge appears and kicks the hell out of him


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,698 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    The ppv tonight is starting at 11pm not midnight ? I was checking the WWE network schedule and it's starting at 11pm according to that.

    edit: Clocks went forward in the US last night and not here so just to note the PPV starts at 11PM our time not midnight.

    I find the use of the Elimination Chamber concept is useless because it doesnt look dangerous as it originally was.
    Ill prob still watch some of the PPV since its on earlier but cant see myself staying awake for the whole thing :pac:

    It's Hell in a Cell's fatter cousin.

    I think there will be a big swerve in women's EC.

    There isn't one match on the card that interests me at all.

    A big swerve ? So Shayna not winning then. I mean there are other women in the chamber who'd make a good opponent for Becky but I think shayna needs to be involved somehow at mania. How they do that will be interested ?

    I think Nia takes someone out, takes their spot and wins.

    Just an inkling I have.

    I don't hate it. I was hoping ruby riott might get the win because I think she's underrated and is a future champion.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,015 ✭✭✭SMC92Ian


    WOW **** what an abysmal match card. If I'm up I might throw it on for the gimmicks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    The actual Chamber looks so shít these days. I remember when it had the loose chain-link and metal grating on the outside.

    The state of it now, padding on the outside and neon trimming all over it.

    Over-produced like everything else


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Very odd spot for this match. Should be the piss-break match before the main event.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭Adiboo


    Downhill from here

    That was great

    Any chance of an Edge Orton confrontation tonight?

    Well the padding takes away a bit but the shape is so it fits into most arenas because the original chamber wasn’t easy to hang in arenas.

    I loved DB putting over Gulak without saying anything. The facial reactions and pointing puts over Gulak.

    Andrade should give Jericho a lesson in the spinning elbow


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,466 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    How many more times are we going get this match


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,698 ✭✭✭✭Itssoeasy


    I found it funny that the DDT on the concrete that cost Andrede a month of his career. Yeah the wellness violation had no role in it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,629 ✭✭✭Adiboo


    Fierce generic WCW cruiserweight vibes from Humberto


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭Ironicname


    I have a surprisingly high expectation for this tag team chamber match.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,466 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Those masked guys are actually decent but hard to care about them really


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭Ironicname


    Starship Pain looks ridiculous

    Alaister Black on the main roster is such a waste of talent

    This match should've been over 10 minutes ago and it's still going. You can tell they're struggling to fill time with this PPV.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,466 ✭✭✭✭PTH2009


    Taker looked cool


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    Make the most out of taker it being the oc vs taker/black could be cool at mania

    Throw Kane or Sting in there too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭Ironicname


    An Alestair Black/Undertaker co-entrance would be great


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    WTF are WWE doing with Rollins? They sure know how to bury their stars.

    I’m actually legit shocked the team with the advantage in a handicap match in wwe actually won


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    It's actually fascinating how quiet the crowd are for this match. So silent.

    Edit: This is one of the worst PPV main events in years, in my opinion. Absolute rubbish.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88


    I see what they were trying to do with Shayna looking unstoppable but I’m not her biggest fan so was boring


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,024 ✭✭✭✭ShaneU


    Tag chamber match was good, everything else was bleh

    Compare this to AEW Revolution that only had one poor match and the rest was great


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,177 ✭✭✭Ironicname


    I quite liked the women's match.

    That was probably the worst chamber match ever, terrible main event, boring and dull as f**k. The PPV was pure ****. Such a shame.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,082 ✭✭✭✭chopperbyrne


    Having a PPV themed around a match type has always been a bad idea.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,429 ✭✭✭Wuff Wuff


    fell asleep during the entrances for the Tag Team chamber match, briefly woke up during the Black/Styles match andfell asleep shortly after....

    take it i didnt miss much haha


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,602 ✭✭✭RocketRaccoon


    I would love to know how many posts a PPV thread would have got back in 2000/01. I'd say a lot more than 2 and a bit pages.

    This is the problem with WWE everyone even Big Dave Meltzer knew what was going to happen.

    I don't mind predictable as long as it's a fun or enjoyable journey, like some films...

    100%

    It was predictable enough Shayna was going to win. Thats fine.

    It was a poor match though, because of who was involved, and should not have been the main event.

    The tag chamber was always going to be a superior match and should have main evented. It was brilliant, imo.

    Bryan/Gulak was a proper fight. I loved it.

    I wonder if they'll do something like Black/Taker vs The OC, to hide Taker's limitations a bit, and give Black a big rub.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,270 ✭✭✭✭J. Marston


    Shayna's time on the main roster has been a bust so far. That awful main event last night, a plodding match against Kairi that received "boring" chants and the very underwhelming triple threat back at Survivor Series.

    I really don't see why she should end a big reign like Becky's. She's 40 so it isn't exactly building for the future, she's boring and receives little to no reaction. All she has is the MMA legit-ness and even that pales in comparison to Ronda.

    Nia is the one to end that reign. There is history there and she gets actual heat.

    I was with you until you mentioned Jax....ya must be on the wind up here. :pac:

    Had Vince had a brain two months ago he would copped Asuka was gaining momentum, and would have been ideal to defeat Becky at Mania. Now we're stuck with two divisions that is utterly bereft of imagination.

    I think fans would be far more interested in a Nia feud than Shayna and honestly, I'd prefer a David vs Goliath match over Shayna methodically picking apart limbs. We'll see over the next few weeks but I think the build is gonna be ice-cold.

    I can see them adding something like a "first blood" stipulation to give it some oomph.
