Elimination Chamber 2013 Review

Elimination Chamber 2013 Review : Swagger Shocks



Alberto Del Rio vs Big Show
To me , it never made sense that these guys were going back to a normal singles match after having two Last Man Standing matches . But still , the match was way better than I thought it was gonna be , and at times I wasn't sure who was gonna win . Del Rio is able to make Show tap out to retain . ***



Antonio Cesaro vs The Miz
Miz was taped up after he was attacked on Raw by Cesaro . This played a big part in the match , as Cesaro constantly targeted the injured shoulder . Miz ended up targeting Cesaro's leg , and it made for an intriguing and entertaining match until the finish came along . It was awful . Cesaro brought down Miz and Miz landed on Cesaro's groin , somehow causing the DQ . Bad finish to a solid match . **1/2



Randy Orton vs Kane vs Daniel Bryan vs Jack Swagger vs Chris Jericho vs Mark Henry : Elimination Chamber
What an awesome chamber match this was . Everyone managed to play a big part in the match , and that can be rare for chamber matches . Mark Henry coming in like a bulldozer was fantastic , and I thought for sure that he would win . He even managed to eliminate both of the tag team champs . The final three was great and unpredictable , but I was really sure that it would come down to Y2J and Orton . Turns out I was wrong , and Swagger managed to shock the world by pinning Orton for the win . ****



John Cena / Sheamus / Ryback vs The Shield
Like most , I was hoping that this would turn into a chamber match to turn it into a war games style of match . Still , it did turn out to be a great match . The Shield was dominant throughout , and somehow managed to pull off the upset win on the three biggest faces in the WWE . Awesome stuff making the Shield look like complete superstars . Rollins pins Ryback to win . ***1/2



Dolph Ziggler vs Kofi Kingston
I'm never going to complain about these two getting a bonus match . The match was way too short to mean anything , but they did manage to pack a lot of action into the four minutes . Dolph hits the zig zag to win . *3/4


Kaitlyn vs Tamina Snuka
I have absolutely no idea with what's happening in the divas division just now . This match was really short and they didn't get too much action in it . Definitely skip it . Kaitlyn retains . 1/2*



The Rock vs CM Punk
I don't know if everyone will agree with me , but I really preferred this match to the one they had at the Royal Rumble . Punk was made to look great in this match , as he was allowed to kick out of both the Rock bottom and the people's elbow . Rock never even got a chance to kick out of the GTS . Brilliant match and the crowd was really into it . Rock hits the people's elbow to retain . ****



8/10 . Great PPV here as the only bad match was the divas match , and you also have two four star matches and two of them at three stars + . Definitely get the replay or just watch again if you have Sky Sports .
