2006 New Year's Revolution WWE championship
John Cena(c) defeated Carlito, Chris Masters, Shawn Micheals, Kane and Kurt Angle to retain.
This was the 4th chamber match chronologically but #24 on my rankings.
This match was another really bad one it was on the bottom for a while and the only thing that really saved it was that I love Kurt Angle and Hbk. It was pretty boring for the first 3 entrants then when Angle entered it started to pick up he was definitely my favorite part. Hbk giving him sweet chin music and eliminating him to save Cena was really stupid but at least Angle was the only one who was actually eliminated by a finisher. The rest of the eliminations were wack and rushed. They spent the whole match trying to hype up the Carlito and Masters alliance just for Carlito to roll him up and betray him for the elimination and then get rolled up right after by Cena. Ending a match like this on two roll up pins was just a terrible idea and having them as f3 knowing damn well neither had a shot of taking the belt from Cena was lame. No one took any big risks or dives off the cage and they barely used the chamber at all in the match.
Edge cashing in the money in the bank contract for the first time to win the belt after was iconic but not really a part of the chamber match so I didn't include it in the grading.(maybe ill do mitb matches next)
Length: 28 mins. Could have been longer instead of rushing through with weak eliminations.
Best performer: Kurt Angle. He had no eliminations but really was only thing saving this match from being an F.
Best moment: Angle entering. He came into the match on fire hitting all of the other 4 with suplexes making Hbk bleed by scraping his face against the chains and then locking everyone in Angle locks. Hbk eliminating him while he was doing it to Cena was so dumb and annoying
Grade: D. like I said angle saved it from being an F or D- to put it ahead of the other two.
2012 world heavyweight championship match.
Daniel bryan(c) defeated great khali, cody rhodes, santino marella, wade barrett and big show to retain title. This was the 15th chamber match chronologically but #25 in my ranking.
This was actually my first time ever seeing this match but with the cast I wasn't expecting much people like Santino and Khali should not be in chamber matches. This was another really bad one and was on the bottom of my list until I got to the last one but it wasn't much better. Majority of the eliminations were after weak moves or a roll up which also shouldn't happen in this type of match. There was a couple bright spots like Big Show ripping open top of Bryans cage to fuck him up inside the pod. Bryan and Barrett also had a few good moments in f3 which is why I put it above the other one. Santino Marella having most eliminations and being in f2 was a total joke they tried to have a few close calls but no one in the audience actually believed Santino would win
.
Length: 34minutes which was honestly to long because there wasn't many exciting moments
Best performer: Big show. Bryan won but only eliminated Santino and Show eliminated Khali and had all the best moments.
Best moment: Big show breaking the chains off the top of Bryans pod and jumping down and fucking him up until the time ran out for his door to open.
It took me a little over 2 weeks but I've finally watched all 26 of them and now it is time to do rankings coming in at
#26. 2020 Women's elimination chamber match for raw womens title match at Wrestlemania
Shayna Bayzler defeated Natalya, Liv Morgan, Sarah Logan, Ruby Riott and Asuka.
I watched this match live at wellsfargo center and that's what inspired me to do this ranking system because I was pretty sure it was the worst one ever. After watching all 26 in a row I can now confirm this. I thought maybe it would be better on tv than live but no it wasn't.
It started out decent enough with Nattie Ruby and Sarah all getting some good shots in using the chains and pods. Once Shayna entered it went downhill fast. I understand they wanted her to look like an unstoppable monster but it was so predictable and boring her eliminating everyone right away then standing in the ring for 3 mins by herself until the next pod opened was just a terrible idea. Since the beginning was ok and they set out what they wanted to do with Shayna instead of an F I give it a
Length 21mins
Best performer: Shayna obviously since she was only one given a chance.
Best moment: hard to pick because the match was pretty bad but I guess Nattie powerbombing ruby off the chains and then Sarah diving on them both from the pod.
Grade D-
