Two Chambers For The Price Of One

Tomorrow night's WWE No Way Out pay-per-view will see the Elimination Chamber being brought back for two matches on the card.

The company did this at last year's event as well and I think it's overexposing the gimmick.

One Elimination Chamber match should be enough per year although I think they are right in having it at the PPV event sandwiched between Royal Rumble and WrestleMania.

Say for instance, a wrestler from Raw won the Rumble and secured his title shot at WrestleMania, the No Way Out show could feature the Elimination Chamber match and the winner of that wins the other world title shot at WrestleMania.

Or, if a Smackdown guys walks away victor at the Rumble, the Elimination Chamber will feature Raw stars trying to get their title shot at WrestleMania.

It makes sense, really.

Two speciality matches on one show is overkill and the crowd could tire with it by the time the second Chamber match begins.

As for me - the event is live on Sky Sports. Had it been on Box Office, I wouldn't have ordered it. I doubt I will even stay up and watch it as I have to be up early on Monday. I'll just set the recorder and watch it later in the day.

It will be a game of hiding from spoilers on Monday, I think.
