10 Infamous WWE Elimination Chamber Moments

7. The Intercontinental Chamber

If the tag team chamber match was a car crash, then this was a car crashing into a bus, which then crashed into a train, which then had a plane fall on it.

The match, which was to crown a new Intercontinental Champion, was already off to a bad start when Rusev had to be pulled due to an injury. He was replaced by Mark Henry, which was a bit like expecting a PlayStation for Christmas and getting an Etch-a-Sketch.

Once the bell rang, this match went to pieces. It all broke down when Henry was accidentally brought into the match early after his pod broke. This threw everyone off script, forcing Dolph Ziggler to very loudly call spots for the remainder of his time in the match.

Then there was the confusion surrounding Sheamus.

His number was called, but he'd locked himself in his pod using his Celtic Cross. However, somebody clearly hadn't told the commentary team that this was part of the story, because they told the audience at home that the pod was stuck, leading to further confusion.

Top to bottom, this match was a total mess. It's absolutely worth watching, but only to see how quickly it all goes down the toilet.
