So, I was right for some, and wrong for others.
Match 1: Alberto Del Rio vs. Kofi Kingston
It WASN'T a title match for the Intercontinental Championship like I thought. Just a normal match. Alberto won. 3 Stars.
Match 2: Elimination Chamber for the World Heavyweight Championship
Edge retained after surviving all 5 other men. Big Show came in to replace Dolph Ziggler. Also - Teddy Long re-hired Kelly Kelly, which I'm sure made Drew McIntyre happy. Rey Mysterio had most of the highlights, but Drew McIntyre had the hardest hits, throwing people through the glass left and right. 4 Stars.
Match 3: Tag Championship Match, Santino/Koslov vs. Slater/Gabriel
We have new tag champs! The Corre members are now 2-time tag champions after a pretty decent match. Ezekial Jackson from the Corre helped run interference from outside. 3 Stars.
Match 4: WWE Championship match, The Miz vs. Jerry 'The King' Lawler
Lawler did much better than I thought a guy his age could go, but lost to Miz even after Alex Riley was banned from ringside. Micheal Cole got Miz thrown into him by The King, and his reactions were great even without a headset. 2 Stars.
Match 5: Number One Contender match for RAW's Elimination Chamber
As I predicted, Cena won, Orton was mostly concerned with Punk, and Morrison was AWESOME. Sheamus and Morrison spent most of the match on each other, but Morrison came out on top between the two of them. CM Punk got stuck in a malfunctioning pod, and while stuck, Orton beat the heck out of him leading to an immediate RKO and Punk being eliminated first, but the RAW GM said that wasn't fair and let Punk go back in his pod. Later on, CM Punk came out again and this time finished Orton off. Final 3 were Cena, Morrison, and Punk. Morrison was great but hurt his knee quite a bit doing some great aerial maneuvers, and Punk finished him off, just before being caught by Cena's Attitude Adjustment for the win. 5 Stars.
Overall, a solid 4 Star event. Can't wait for Mania.
