WWE Elimination Chamber: 10 Worst Matches Ever

5. WWE Title Elimination Chamber Match - Elimination Chamber (2010)

Kofi Kingston vs Sheamus (c) vs Triple H vs Randy Orton vs Ted DiBiase vs John Cena http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZwoLU57vwQ It's difficult to actually describe this Chamber match, it was just there. You had the story of the Legacy stable of Orton, Rhodes & DiBiase breaking up here, with Rhodes and DiBiase turning on Orton in this match and eliminating him- they would have a triple threat match at Wrestlemania 26 but other than that, this match was simply nothing new. Kingston was making up the numbers, Sheamus was the freshman year Champion WWE pushed too soon for his own good and Cena & Triple H in a Chamber match had been seen and done before- especially Hunter whom had won 4 of the prior 9 Chamber matches before this one. The problem with this match was that we had seen all their tricks before. Sheamus, as the defeated Champion was placed in the match from the start to keep as much heat on him as they could, the Randy Orton elimination mirrored that of Shawn Michaels' I discussed earlier, Triple H in there doing the same stuff he'd done in all his prior matches and Cena winning, of all this had little to no impact. It had all been done, all been seen... including what happened after the match. So Cena wins the Chamber Match only for Vince McMahon to come out and announce Cena was going to immediately defend the title there and then against someone else in another match he then loses in less than two minutes... sound familiar? This was, essentially, a Money in the Bank cash-in angle, without an actual MITB contract and it was cheap as hell. The live crowd in attendance cheered simply in respect of Cena not being Champion and when you consider John has had reigns like this and his random 2-week reign between Del Rio's two in late 2011, it's not hard to see where all of those 14 World Title Reigns WWE likes to mention a lot have come from. This was the first Elimination Chamber match I can recall watching and being completely bored by. There were worse ones that preceded it but none that moved me less.
