On Raw, we've got John Cena defending against Rey Mysterio, Kofi Kingston and Chris Jericho. On Smackdown, we've got Edge defending against Undertaker, Big Show and Triple H. Two slots remain for each Elimination Chamber match. Who do you think will fill those slots? It would make sense for Jeff Hardy to be in, since he is a former WWE champion, but will they have a Jeff vs. Matt match at No Way Out? Maybe one or both Hardys will be in. What about Umaga? Will Christian Cage finally make his return at the next PPV? On Raw, I'm not even sure. JBL lost his chance to be in the chamber last Monday, but maybe WWE will forget about that (like they sometimes do) and put both JBL and HBK in the match. Thoughts?

Having 2 elimination chambers again at this year's No Way Out for both World Heavyweight titles might be a bit too much but it might bring the PPV sales up. This will probably be the second best PPV, other than Wrestlemania. Jeff Hardy might be in one if he doesn't have a match with his brother and Kane might be in one. HBK has been in many of them and so has JBL. I don't know when Christian Cage will return. I thought it would be at the Royal Rumble.

Well we know all the spots now. From Raw my pick is Chris Jericho. I really think he makes an excellent heel champion but I guess I'd be happy for anyone but John Cena to win. I don't really get what they're doing with Kofi Kingston and Mike Knox in the mix. Kofi Kingston doesn't seem like a main eventer and Mike Knox is all over the place.
From SmackDown my pick is Triple H. As long as Jeff Hardy doesn't win I will be happy =]

I agree with you that John Cena losing would be great, but with WWE being all PG and all the little kids going nuts over him (for some reason), I have a feeling he'll retain. Yeah, I wouldn't mind if Jericho won and got a lengthy reign. Although I'd mark out if Kane won that match. From Smackdown, I think (and hope) that Edge retains just so the WWE title can regain a bit of stability.

Well I hope that Christian does finally get to be in the Elimination Chamber, I was a bit...well I was thinking where was Christian, so mabye he can be a secret entrant, and whichever one he goes into he will be a big surprise, and it'll be his first chamber match. Id like to see umaga in the Smackdown chamber, but if the Feud with undertaker start in the chamber, mabye with a win by Umaga, I would like to see both win at WM., Mainly because knowone should really beat Taker and WM, but if Umaga looses it will be his third straight loss at WM, which I feel most performers should have.

I think there's a lot of possibilities for contenders on the Smackdown side. Yeah, maybe Undertaker will get eliminated by Umaga in the chamber. (or vice-versa) That is, if Umaga is in. Maybe they'll turn Umaga face? He got a pretty good reaction on Smackdown. Of course, if they did that, he probably wouldn't feud with Taker anytime soon. Anyway, I think Edge should kept the title here, because the WWE championship has changed hands too much lately.

Well I guess Jeff Hardy would be included for the Chamber match. Perhaps even Matt. And from RAW i should think that Kane will be in. Maybe HBK would be in and may evenwin it like he did in 2002 so that he would face JBL at WM for a match to end their storyline. From SD i guess MVP will be in. Christian would probably win the MITB match at WM since he's a ladder match specialist. And what about Undertaker? Will he retire at WM or win the title back?

It looks like MVP will be feuding with Shelton Benjamin over the United States Championship. That's another title that doesn't get defended enough. I think Undertaker might wrestle for a few more years. He's supposed to be wrestling Umaga on some live events, so that could be his opponent for Wrestlemania.

Ah does Mike Knox deserve a spot inside the Chamber? I don't think so. WWE is trying to push Knox. And I think Christian will emerge as Jeff Hardy's mystery attacker who caused all the accidents.

Do Rey Mysterio and Kofi Kingston? Mike Knox is a fresh face for main events and I actually like him. Kofi's a fresh face, but he's still pretty young and has plenty of time to better himself. Rey Mysterio was booked like a total wuss of a World Heavyweight Champion and I wouldn't mind at all if Michael Cole never mentioned his World Title reign again. In my opinion, Rey is a tad overrated. Well, I'm pretty sure if Batista wasn't injured, you wouldn't see Kofi or Knox in this match, so it freshens things up.

Well, www.pwinsider.com reported that Mike Knox qualified at a live event, so that leaves one slot open on the Raw side. I like that WWE is letting some new blood in the main events. I guess it's still possible HBK will be added. Maybe we'll find out on Raw tomorrow.
