Well this PPV to me is the best of the past 3-4 years....
.
.
HHH winning elimination chamber
Me never wanted to see HHH win this ...but after watching the quality of the match I got no complaints... Show,Jeff,Koslov, HHH & Taker all had their parts to play in this one and it never looked like a one sided match.....
Edge Winning the other one...
I was concerned at the they book Edge ....Always the same stuff....But again all those times it came as a big surprise...And this match too was great and I got no complaints for this one too....
;
Orton - Shane.....
It was a great one too...good to see Shane back on the ring doing those extreme moves...I wanted Shane to win this one ....But again the quality of the match left me with no complaint.......

I have to disagree, this pay-per-view was one of the worst ones WWE has put on in recent years. One plus to the show was that it was unpredictable like recent WWE shows.
The SmackDown Elimination Chamber was a bit of a let down. I really wanted The Undertaker to take the title leading into WrestleMania 25 but instead Triple H won. I don't mind Triple H, but I think The Undertaker deserved it a little bit more right now. After Monday Night Raw this week, Triple H will likely be facing Randy Orton as WrestleMania and there really isn't a need for the title to be involved because of the way the feud is being built up. If The Undertaker had won the title he could have face Shawn Michaels in an all or nothing match; 16-0 streak and the WWE Championship would be on the line. Seeing Edge being eliminated with-in the first 3 minutes was a surprise. The only other memorable moment was the reversal of the Tombstone that was done by Triple H and the Undertaker. The spot where Triple H hit the Big Show with the Pedigree and Jeff Hardy hitting the Swanton Bomb off of the chamber was done last year; bad idea to pull the same spot 2 years in a row. The last complaint I have is there was no blood in this match; how do you have an elimination chamber with-out blood? That's like having a ladder match with-out a championship up for grabs. This of course is due to the WWE switching to a PG rating instead of PG-13 which is saddening to the older fans that loved the attitude era.
Randy Orton vs. Shane McMahon was decent but nothing special. Bringing Legacy into the match was a bad move because it makes Randy Orton seem like he needs Legacy to win a match now and someone with his talent does not need help to make himself look good in a match. The only reason their was blood in this match was because the shot to the head with the monitor was real.
I didn't watch the Jack Swagger vs. Finlay because I knew Jack Swagger would win setting up the Christian vs. Swagger feud for ECW. I also don't like Finlay's ring work so there was no point in watching this match.
JBL vs. HBK was a pretty good match but this match was predictable. There was no way JBL was going to win the likeness of HBK. Nice touch adding HBK's wife into the mix with a nice slap to JBL. It's nice to know this feud is over because it was getting a bit ridiculous. I don't see how they expected the late teen to adult fans to believe HBK was broke, but it's easy to trick the kids into thinking he is.
The Raw Elimination Chamber was good and had some memorable moments. Now I am an Edge fan but it was a bit ridiculous having him win the title. Seeing how he got into the chamber gave away the ending that he would be leaving the champion though no one expected him to be in the match. Rey Mysterio had the only memorable moments in this match. Like the SmackDown elimination chamber, there was no blood but again this is due to the PG rating.
Coming off of an awesome Royal Rumble gave WrestleMania 25 a bit of momentum but after No Way Out that momentum is gone. I'm not saying WrestleMania 25 will be bad and I highly doubt it will be bad but not the best way to build up to the biggest show of the year. I think the PG rating has gone a bit to far now with no blood in 2 elimination chamber matches.

Well your comments sound markish... The quality of both the chamber matches were awesome.. About Finlay's ring work...Dude he is one of the bests at it.. But the match was a huge disappointment...I expected a lot from it even though I was sure Swagger gonna retain his belt...

Are you kidding me? Both chambers were bad, sure they had some minor spots but nothing amazing. It's the same old match year in and year out however this time it was just bad. Repetitive spots from previous years gets annoying after awhile.
As for Finlay, he is not one of the best. Maybe back in the day he was better but not anymore. If he is "one of the best" then why isn't he ranked with Triple H, The Undertaker, The Rock? Because he isn't that good, he's only on the show because of Hornswaggle, other than that he would be jobbing.
I'm sorry but it seems like you are a mark or a WWE fan boy because that PPV sucked. Saying Finlay is one of the best just furthers my opinion. If you think Finlay is the best then what the hell is Kurt Angle, Chris Benoit, and Eddie Guerrero? They were/are the best of the best.

I liked this PPV too. I think it will produce some good storylines leading up the WM25, if raw this pass monday was any clue. HHH face at the end was priceless, I havent ever seen him sell like that before. I can't wait to see him what him and Orton.

Oh I know he is really good at making angry faces. I just meant that this face was the best one I've seen him do, he was practily foaming at the mouth.
