I bet we're getting the 3-way. If Reigns is taken out of this it probably does major damage to a guy they - justifiably, despite some recent missteps - view as a major prospect. But I think that a good portion of the crowd will reject Reigns is pretty solidified by now, and I don't think he can promo or work his way out of it.

I still firmly believe that if they turn him heel he can be saved. If they want to boo him let them boo him, and if he becomes the kind of worker they want him to be he will win them back over. It worked for Edge.

So I guess my question is if they retired the Elimination Chamber because of overexposure via annual event, or because it's such a tremendous pain in the rear end to transport? Or a third thing?

This was a good Raw. I forgot that I'm snowed in. Wrestling did its job.

Their excuse was #2, arenas and their jumbotrons make it hard to find a place to hold the show anymore.

Keep with the rumored Triple Threat idea and go with Brock vs. Kane vs. Big Show.

It's perfect. Lesnar's grown increasingly facish, and didn't they tease dissension between Kane and Show on Smackdown?

In an interview Steph said it was because it was a pain in the rear end to actually hang in the area but it's probably an expense thing for transporting the whole thing as well.

According to an interview with Stephanie, with the amount of arenas that now have massive electronic scoreboard things mounted on the roof, it's hard to even find a place where they can hang something that big and and heavy

I'm sure they fact that it costs so much to transport figured in too

There's only one world title now and the #1 contender is decided at the royal rumble. and no way are they making brock do a chamber match.

It would be funny if they do the 3-way, Bryan slowly and somehow convincingly works down Brock, and then Reigns spears both of them without having done anything else in the match.

That's kind of how the triple threat ended last year with Orton & Batista smacking around each other near the end and Bryan capitalizing with a Knee Plus/Yes Lock combo on Dave to finish it.
