| #1 Posted on 12.5.15 1109.11 Reposted on: 12.5.22 1109.58 | Though this was going to be another World Title chamber match. Nope!
WWE says
- elimination chamber for the vacant IC title - elimination chamber for the tag team titles (?!?!) - a John Cena appearance - a Heavyweight title defense
That's probably a better show than the one they're doing Sunday.

| #3 Posted on 12.5.15 1132.52 Reposted on: 12.5.22 1139.16 | There was a late-night rewrite on that article. Last night it read "John Cena will defend the U.S. title." I guess they figured that was a spoiler for Payback (even though it isn't really when it comes to Cena).
They're calling this a "pay-per-view," even though it isn't on pay-per-view. I know they dabbled with calling these shows "specials" when the network first launched, but they really need a name for the big shows now. "Blockbuster event" maybe? | BigDaddyLoco

| #4 Posted on 12.5.15 1201.33 Reposted on: 12.5.22 1201.59 | Wow, I was right for once. It is for the IC Title.
New Day vs Cesaro-Kidd vs Rowan and Harper in a cell sounds pretty sweet to me. That alone will draw me in.
I agree that this event sounds much better than the actual PPV. How are PPV buys doing these days anyways? | JustinShapiro

Let's jokingly entertain the idea that there will be six teams and see how far we get. Real Canadians, NEW DAY, Wyatts (Harpers?) ... Prime Time Players, Megapowers, Ascension. Yeah, let's stick to three. Or let's jokingly entertain the idea that the six will be Langston, Kofi, Woods, Cesaro, Kidd, and Nattie. | thecubsfan

You could add the Lucha Dragons instead of the MegaPowers if you were to go the 6 team route. | JustinShapiro

Whoooops. I knew I was forgetting someone that wasn't the Matadors. Yes, the LD/LM program would make more sense there than Negapowers vs. LOD0000. | It's False

I don't think any of the big-time high-flyers have ever worked this kind of match, aside from maybe Jeff Hardy waaaaaaaay back when the concept was first introduced. | Dr Unlikely

New Day should be the last out of their chamber so all three of them have to spend 15 minutes squashed into a pod trying to clap and not use up all the oxygen. | texasranger9
