6 Ups And 8 Downs From WWE Elimination Chamber 2015

4. Stealing Your Own Thunder

Everyone knew the moment the tag team Elimination Chamber match was announced that Xavier Woods would find a way to get involved in the match. The door was open to all kinds of creative ways. Maybe he scales to the top of the chamber and lowers himself in through the top. Perhaps he comes up from the trap door Shawn Michaels used in 2010. Or maybe Woods simply walks through the door as one eliminated team exits. Rather than do any of that, Kane simply allowed all three members of New Day to compete in the match. And while that gave them an unfair advantage, it basically removed any mystery from the match. You knew that all three would be involved and that ultimately, the numbers game would catch up to a team €“ which it did for the Prime Time Players. This is probably a case of WWE outthinking itself. Woods getting involved was a certainty, but being placed in the pod was just anti-climactic.
