Khali got pinned within a minute of entering lol, apparently the SD chamber shat all over the Raw chamber, despite being full of midcarders.

On a side note: Q: How does the WWE outshit the Lawler/Cole feud of 2011?
A: With a Long vs Lauranitis feud in 2012.

wow, no sign of zack or eve in the cena-kane match, rendering that kiss not only cheesy but completely f**king pointless...

Haven't watched the show yet and judging by the reaction on here I don't think I'll bother.

Just came in here to post this...

For a lesser PPV, I enjoyed it.... God they did a great job with Jericho. There were points I was wondering if he was really hurt.

The crowd for Santino was amazing.

btw what was with Cole saying "I'm sitting here at ringside with Hall of Famer, Jerry The King Lawler and soon to be hall of famer, Booker T". did I miss something? did Cole give something away?

Daniel Bryan is so good..... the smile on his face when he realises its just him and Santino is brilliant.

Both Chamber matches are worth a look for different reasons. The Raw Chamber is quite fast paced and had some good moments (particularly the finishing sequence), but a bunch of unnecessary bumps to the outside.

The Smackdown Chamber surprised me. Big Show, Barrett, Bryan, Rhodes, and Marella all played their parts to perfection. Barrett would be my MVP, but everybody bar Khali worked hard. Bryan bumped like nothing else, Show has one of the better EC moments you'll find, and Rhodes looked good.

The rest was utter shit though.

Watched it and the show met my earlier expectations.

I get the feeling that creative had already mapped out their Mania card & this show was something of an obstacle to book around. The promotion of this PPV really wasn't that well thought out and as a result it won't be remembered as one of the best EC PPVs.

The only aspect of this show that stood out was how terrible the John Cena-Kane match turned out. The Ambulance/Car/Stretcher match is a mediocre gimmick at the worst of times but given the build up this match made absolutely no sense. Cena didn't work any of the build up into the match and was still pandering to the crowd and messing around with WWE officials. The guy is meant to be facing this seven foot mad man monster who just came in between him and one of his good friends that he's been assaulting for months & he's cracking jokes?

Dumb dumb dumb dumb.

Apart from that, I think other have expressed my points for me.

I quite enjoyed both EC matches and was pleasantly surprised by the role that Santino was able to play.

The rest of the show was a waste of time though.
