loved and hated about Elmination Chamber

Pre-show: was the Rhodes Brothers vs Ryback/Curtis Axel.   Cody got the pin.

Match#1: Big E vs Swagger for the Intercontinental title.  Big E got the pin and kept his belt

Match#2: Usos vs New Age Outlaws for the Tag Titles. Outlaws got the pin and kept their belts

Match#3: Titus O'Neil vs Darren Young.  Titus got the pin.

Match#4 : Shield vs Wyatts. Bray got the pin over Reigns.  Damn it! 
This was a really nice length, at 30 minutes, and had some amazingly brilliant moves by Seth Rollins. There was one point where I was literally wondering how he still had a leg when he flipped and landed on his feet after being thrown off the top turnbuckle. Dean Ambrose was sent off into the crowd by Bray Wyatt at one point as well, and seemed to get lost out in the darkness, while Rollins was put through the announce booth. This left Roman Reigns alone in the ring and the victim of all three Wyatts. 
This match was definitely worth the money for the pay-per-view. (I'm going to have to get the dvd just for this match!) None of the Shield were left standing, which sucks, and more then once all of them looked vomit worthy. As much as I screamed at the tv when Reigns got pinned, I still loved this match. Listening to the crowd throughout the whole time going back and forth with their chants, half for the Shield, half for the Wyatts; you could tell in the first few seconds this was going to be something to remember. (they hadn't even entered the ring yet when the crowd started to chant "this is awesome" )
The very beginning of this match, all six men were just slamming each other with punches, kicks, Ambrose twitching like a little kid off his meds with Rollins having to tell him to settle down, handfuls of blonde streaked hair nearly became a trophy for Luke Harper more then once as he continued to toss Rollins around by it. 
I do believe - no pun intended- that this was the first ppv loss for the Shield as a group? I'm eager to see what kind of feud will be embraced now because of this? As I've stated in my last post, I would love to see Ambrose vs Bray over the next few weeks, as well as more 3 on 3 matches come about between these teams.  
I know Reigns is being given the spotlight for a WWE Heavyweight title match in the coming months, but I have said it before and will say it again, Seth Rollins should be given the spotlight for the chance as well. The fact he had the NXT title should be carrying more weight on the topic than it has been.

Match #5: women's didn't watch

Match#6: Batista vs Del Rio. He got it with a pin.

Main Event: Chamber match - Cena vs Cesaro vs Christian vs Orton vs Bryan vs Sheamus
Sheamus and Cesaro started it, next in was Bryan, next in was Christian, next Cena then Orton.
First elimination was Sheamus by Christian
Second elimination Christian by Bryan
Third elimination was Cesaro by Cena - That sucked massive-
Then the Wyatts  popped into the chamber causing chaos. This led to Cena being eliminated by Orton. This is like the third time in a row over the last few weeks the Wyatts have helped Orton.
This left Bryan and Orton in a one on one match  Kane came out, but got a few kicks to the face for his trouble. Both Orton and Bryan had a bunch of near falls before Kane helped once more giving Orton the chance to get a second RKO on Byran for the win. 
Orton kept his title. Damn it!

I loved that Cesaro was in the main event, I hate the fact he was eliminated, he was my pick for this match.
I loved that the Wyatts had some extra air time, but hate the fact they helped Orton.

For me, the two best matches were the Shield vs Wyatts and the main event. Good to see Cesaro being given the spotlight. I would have liked to see some NXT guys have had a match.

Till next time,
Love Ardeth Blood.
