The WWE brings us yet another incredible wrestling event on February 20th live from the Oracle Arena in Oakland, CA. This the WWE’s February pay per view and it is the last pay per view event before Wrestle mania XXVII.
If you can’t be there in Oakland on Sunday, and you are unable to watch this event on your television, then you should watch wwe elimination chamber 2011 online because it will pretty much determine what happens at Wrestle mania.
Below you will see the matches that have been announced for the show so far as described by Eric Cohen of About.com:
RAW Elimination Chamber Match: John Cena (2-1) vs. Sheamus (0-1) vs. Randy Orton (0-3) vs. John Morrison (0-1) vs. R-Truth (0-1) vs. CM Punk (0-2)
The Chamber: The structure is a giant circle that covers the ringside area. There are four plexiglass chambers for the wrestlers to wait in and the area outside the ring between the chambers is made of steel grating. The domed structure is made of solid steel beams with thick ropes of chain making the structure impossible to escape. The Elimination Chamber is 36 foot in diameter, consists of over 2 miles of chain, is 16 feet high, and weighs over 10 tons. The WWE claims to have spent over $500,000 to construct it.
Rules of the match: The match involves 6 people. The match starts with 2 men in the ring and the other 4 men confined to their own plexiglass chamber. At a specified interval (either 3 or 5 minutes) a pod will open at random (unless a wrestler has earned the right to enter the ring last). A competitor is eliminated by either pin fall or submission and that can happen at any point in the match. The last wrestler remaining is the winner of the match.
Events leading to this match: The six men in this match lost the RAW Rumble Match that was won by Jerry Lawler. The winner of this match will earn a WWE Championship match at WrestleMania XXVII.
SmackDown Elimination Chamber Match for the World Heavyweight Championship: Champion Dolph Ziggler (0-0) vs. Edge (1-2) vs. Kane (0-3) vs. Drew McIntyre (0-0) vs. Rey Mysterio (0-2) vs. Wade Barrett (0-0)
Rules of the match: The only difference between this match and the RAW one is that the winner of this bout will leave the ring as the World Heavyweight Champion.
Events leading to this match: Edge and Dolph Ziggler were named as competitors in this bout prior to their Intergender Handicap Match for the title on the SmackDown that followed the Royal Rumble. The following week, Edge again retained his title in a match against Dolph Ziggler but the following Monday Vickie Guerrero named Dolph the new champion because Edge used the spear in that match. The other four men in this match all won qualifying matches during that show to earn a spot in this match.
WWE Championship: Champion The Miz vs. Jerry Lawler
Events leading to this match: Hall of Famer Jerry Lawler earned this title shot by winning the 7-man RAW Rumble Match. There is recent history between these men as “The King” almost won the title from the Miz in a TLC Match during an episode of Monday Night RAW two months ago. Lawler wound up losing that match when his commentary partner, Michael Cole, interfered in the bout.
