No Way Out Spoilers?

[PeepShow]

- The Elimination Chamber match is being brought back for the WWE No Way Out pay-per-view in February.

The storyline going into WrestleMania 24 is that the winner of the Royal Rumble in January will get to decide the champion he wants to face at WrestleMania. Then, the champion who isn't chose will have the Superstars from his brand go into an Elimination Chamber match at No Way Out. The winner of the Chamber match will get the other available title shot at WrestleMania 24.

Thoughts?

 

[Great One]

Awesome... Triple H is totally winning the EC.

 

[Switchy]

That's a sick idea but won't it kinda overshadow the WM main event? I think an SD! Superstar is gonna win the rumble 'cause I can't se them putting together a good EC but Raw has a lot more star-power to do so with, SD! would have Khali in it.

 

[Travis40]

Let's see...SD guy wins Rumble..Raw gets the EC

Jericho/HBK/HHH/Umaga/Snitsky/Hardy

HHH wins and faces Orton at WrestleMania...

That's just what I think is going to happen at NWO.

 

[Great One]

Snitsky won't be in it... that will be Kennedy's or more unlikely, Lashley's spot.

 

[Travis40]

^They're pushing the Hardy/Snitsky fued...so...they might put him in there...remember in 06 everyone was saying "They won't put Carlito and Masters in the Elimination Chamber". Not only were they in it, they were 2 of the final 3 people in the match, so I see Snitsky being in the EC at NWO

 

[The Rated R CMStar]

It would be:

HHH, HBK, Jericho, Kennedy, Umaga, Lashely. If Hardy is in there would be too many faces in the match.

 

[Great One]

No, there is no Hardy/Snitsky feud. Go read my thread in the WWE section, it's obvious as hell this is gonna set up something with HHH/Hardy.

And lol, who was saying they wouldn't put Carlito/Masters in there? Who ELSE was there to put in there? Those people were Blue, if any said that.

 

[The Rated R CMStar]

Did you remembered the qualifying matches, they were Carlito vs jobber, Masters vs jobber. It was obvious. Besides, Carlito and Masters were hot characters back then.

 

[Soulpower]

You know, it wouldn't surprise me if neither Kennedy or Lashley wrestled in the EC. Remember that it was Kennedy who "took out" Lashey, so we might see those two wrestle in a singles match.

 

[This Guy]

Course your all assuming that it would be Raw side in the Chamber.

I have mixed feelings on this right now. Chamber match not for a title just seems odd. And doing it on a PPV where there no doubt will already be a WWE Title Match, a World Title Match and an ECW Title Match, again seems odd. I think the right idea last year of having Cena & Michaels take on Batista & Taker was the best course of action (though that also had a lot to do with the fact that they booked 2 face vs. face Main event title matches) I actually wouldn't mind seeing a 6 man tag main event this year at the main event for NWO with all 3 champions and there respective WM opponents. Weather it be Champions vs. Challengers match (ie using the current title scenes, CM Punk, Orton & Batista vs. Morrison, Jericho & Edge) or just faces vs. heels (again using current scene CM Punk, Jericho & Batista vs. Morrison, Orton & Edge). But elimination chamber ontop of your main event matches seems like too much to me.

 

[Marvel26]

Nobody has even thought of the possibilty of SD! having the elimination chamber...heres who I think could fill it nicely:

Undertaker/Edge/Finlay/Mysterio/Kane/Mark henry

 

[MattHardyV1]

Well interesting........My best guess up to this point is that HHH wins the RR and Taker or Mysterio wins the E.C..........I think its a good idea its somitngg new and it goes along with the really good ideas WWE has been having latley...all of u pussies are still gonna whine and complain but ill tell u what..WWE is on a roll

 

[JHar888]

Already heard about it, hopefully it will be as good as the Edge/Evolution/Orton/Y2J/Benoit back in 2005.

I have to agree with pretty much everything you said there, This Guy. The idea of deciding the second (of three) #1 contenders via EC seems way over the top, and would only be used to push a big-time fued such as Taker/Edge or something. You wouldnt have a guy like Kennedy win an EC, then go into WM 6 weeks? later to win/lose his title match.

With the idea of a six man tag, This Guy, a triple threat tag could also be in order - maybe a "see what brand's ME will be the best" kind of situation...

If they have this EC at NWO, what will the champion be doing? Ending a current fued, having a no-point fued, or nothing?

I spose my predictions for SD and RAW would be:

HHH/HBK/Umaga/Kennedy/Lashley/??? - With Orton still being champ
Edge/Taker/Kane/Finlay/Henry/Mysterio - With Batista still being champ
