yeah he's a pretty good parody of the right wing nonsense at the time. "Deport santa claus" is so purposefully absurd as if to make fun of the sentiments at the time.
To give the IC chamber some credit. They did their best, their biggest problem is that WWE doesn't do well with improv so they weren't prepared or knew what to do in a situation like that (especially the guys who didn't have indie experience). I genuinely applaud Ziggler for what he did there, even if it didn't work out that great
Shayna going on to lose at Mania made the Chamber match feel even worse in hindsight. Big E was treated so badly as WWE Champion. WWE and messing up Sasha, they made something of a habit of that.
I also hated that Shayna lost the same way she lost to Kairi Sane for the NXT title; a reversal from her submission finisher. Like cmon you should’ve seen that coming, ‘submission magician’
Why didn't they just all gang up, beat Mark Henry down and then say to him: "Wait until you were meant to come in, and 'recover' from the beatdown at that point."
I think at the time the pod glass came off, there were still “too few” people in the ring to sell/justify a beatdown of who was supposed to be the monster of the match.🤷
I'll never understand why they didn't just work Hunter's injury into the match. Have Evolution and Goldberg come face to face backstage, Goldberg says something about Ric Flair who gets so pissed that he throws his drink in Billy-boy's face, and Goldberg spears Flair out of his shoes and into Triple H, who takes an awkward fall, tearing his groin That way, when Trips loses, he doesn't look weak because everyone knows he was hurt already and Jackhammer Jerry can look strong by winning the match and the title
It's because WWE had just started doing separate brand PPVs at the time, Unforgiven 2003 was the second ever Raw brand PPV and they needed a big match for it, and since the money is more in the chase, they felt that it was a better business decision to have Goldberg beat HHH for the belt there instead. Which, btw, worked. The show was a massive success from a buyrate perspective. But nobody EVER wants to bring that up, because they are still complaining that Goldberg got buried...because apparently the guy who concusses himself on doors could NEVER be pinned from running headfirst into a sledgehammer. People just like to bitch without understanding all the context.
Triple H was already wearing those shorts going into SummerSlam, everyone knew he was injured so there was no kayfabe reason to have to contrive. They should have just pulled the title but Triple H couldn't have that, he had to defend his belt.
and he was putting on one of the most dominant showings in the chamber until that point, Braun only wishes he'd come off as well as that. The spear through the perspex and just kicking another one in to get at people, he was on fire, actually one of the best performances he had, until he ran into Trips ego
@@bobmarshall8527 Vince also listened to HHH when he decided last minute he wasn't going to lose to Booker after the build up to the WM match was making Booker look bad so he'd look amazing when he got the win. Booker was also super over with the fans. After, looking it up that match also happened in 2003. HHH apparently didn't want to lose big ppv matches. He killed at least two peoples mega pushes for no reason.
I saw a thing on Instagram yesterday of someone trying to say that in early 2007 Bobby lashley was insanely over, and then I thought back to December to dismember and politely reminded them how wrong they were
@@syxodude91 well it was everyone who saw the writing on the wall for john cena and where he was heading, they didn't like the clone going in the same direction. thankfully in the 2020s he peaked higher than john cena ever did (another hot take)
I never had a problem with the separate branded PPV's starting in 2016. Main reason was because the PPV's were no longer 4+ hours and were whittled down to 2 1/2. And most of those Smackdown PPV's were absolute bangers.
With someone running creative that understands the art of long-term storytelling and 2 full rosters of wrestlers (the majority of which are underutilized) to work with, I can see the good in going to a "big 6" PPV calendar with both brands, and splitting the other 6 shows between Raw and SmackDown to give time to develop proper mid-card and lower-card feuds (one of the forgotten things about the Attitude Era is that the roster top to bottom was engaging with the crowds because they spread out the work load across the card and everyone had at least something to do) with the space for a proper PPV blow-off for those down the card. You want to build stars, give the guys lower down the opportunity to show they can connect with the crowd and run with them from there when they do.
I think another way to save the Shayna match would have been for Shayna to get impatient waiting on Asuka and just break down her cell door and rip her out of it to start their fight early.
I actually really liked Miz as transitional champion. Him desperately trying to get out of the defense with Lashley, and it fit the Hurt Business's character to pull a stunt like this imo. Not every title change needs to be some big triumph at Wrestlemania.
Transitional champions are traditionally only used to get the title from one face to another without them having to have a match. Iron Sheik and Bob Backlund (94) are examples. Theres no point in transitioning the title to a heel to drop it to another heel.
The Muf-Sasha spot happened at the right moment in the match. It isn't as impactful if it is down to 2 people, because at that point everyone knows you have to fight each other. The problem is Sasha should have followed up by attacking Bayley and eliminated her quickly after. Then leading to the match a Wrestlemania.
Really felt like they had the women's tag titles set to debut at Summerslam, in time for Evolution, and then made the pair look so stupid for 6 months because they weren't ready yet.
Suddenly realized that number 10 is something special heading into WrestleMania 37. First, Miz won the WWE championship again after 10 years. Then, Edge's journey to WM paralleled to the day he won RR and announcement of his retirement 10 years ago at that point.
they did that to both big E and Kofi and probably a few times more... where a mid-card guy wins the WWE title.... instead of presenting it as if this guy is now higher up on the card, and is now a true Main Eventer .... they present it as if "oh, a mid card guy has temporarily seized possession of the WWE title. dont worry it was just a fluke win"
Honorable mention: Lesnar winning the WWE title in last year's Chamber. Not only Rollins, Riddle and AJ were booked to look like total jobbers, but also the way they took the championship from Lashley was poorly executed. What's worse, it's that Bobby since then never was given a rematch for the title. Overall, this Chamber match was a disaster that almost ruined the credibility of nearly all contestants.
The thing about the shayna chamber was... why didn't they just open Asuka's pod early? After shayna walking around and actively seeing the crowd bored just let everyone out early
Adam really should do a "How I would book/get over Baron Corbin" WWE has been struggling with booking him for so long I'd like to hear what Adam thinks could save him
Honestly the Shayna chamber should have had a fifteen minute match between Asuka and Basler to end. Asuka was arguably the only threat to her, and they're the two greatest NXT Women's Champs. That match could have been great
I agree so much plus it would have given the more casual fans a reason to even care about Shayna. And Shayna vs Asuka was such a dream match and they squashed it
I remember when otis won mitb my immediate reaction was "why, theyre not gonna put the title on this guy", then the him vs the miz was announced and I was like "thats more like the wwe (Ie still a terrible choice but at least one I can see them doing)"
Bazler definitely should have come out at number 5. Or at the very least, have her play with her food a bit longer instead of dropping each woman in 10 seconds. Such a powerful moment ruined by bad timing. Also to appease terror lord HHH they could have worked the groin injury into the story showing Goldberg destroyed him because HHH wasn't at 100%. Or idk, at least do MORE THAN ONE SLEDGE HIT
Lashley’s ought to have been just a triple entry, with the Miz cashin, the extreme chamber, and him being written off in the chamber match with Brock, and having the leftovers of a wrestlemania match with….Omos. Yeesh.
To be fair, making Shayna 5th probably wouldn't have been enough either since the first four entrants would have still been involved in totally heatless wrestling
people say the December to Dismember Chamber is the worst of all time. i will say that shayna bazsler one is Worse. its so insanely boring and she is not over at all
@@Drakorre yes. ecw Test was rough but late 90s Test is fondly remembered as a "maybe coulda been something" kinda guy and we have RVD and Punk who were easy to cheer for at the time.
December 2 Dismember's chamber was worse than the IC title one imo. D2D went as booked, but was awful, whereas at least in the IC title one, accidents do happen, and I imagine it is pretty difficult to improvise in this sort of match.
another huge problem with the "Extreme" Elimination chamber is that Sabu was out with a kayfabe injury? A guy who once went all House M.D. on a 7-inch gash in his arm just to finish a match couldn't compete due to a minor injury?!
Isn’t it great that almost all of these videos could be retitled with things like “10 Times Vince McMahon Fucked Up the Booking of Elimination Chamber”
Agree with all these except the miz one, really think he deserved a 2nd world title reign in 2016/2017 especially so to see him get it albeit for a week was cool to see
Goldberg should have won the Chamber in 2003. He had momentum he pretty much squashed everyone in it having Triple H retain only to have him loose to Goldberg a month later at Unforgiven was just dumb and it made Goldberg look so stupid in the Chamber
Honestly it would make less sense for Sasha and Bayley to implode after taking out Alexa at the end (someone has to win so it would just come down to "we got here together so may the best woman win" and not betrayal to create an actual heel turn). What would work best here is to have Sasha enter third (since Bayley started) but she and Bayley don't truly start teaming up until the fourth entry. At this point they begin collectively working to eliminate opponents together to hedge their opportunity later. Alexa enters fifth but is eliminated fourth by the collective efforts of Sasha and Bayley, so there are three women left at the end (with Mickie remaining the final entrant) and guaranteeing a new champion but with three women remaining THEN Sasha pulls the trigger on the turn and eliminates both Mickie and Bayley to become Women's Champion. This way you have an actual betrayal (Bayley thought they were going to be a team to the end then fight it out to decide the champion but Sasha takes advantage of this ignorance and takes her out while her guard is down, believing then proving she is capable of going the rest of the distance on her own). Alternatively having Bayley perform the fourth elimination but Sasha using the opportunity to steal victory by going for the Banks Statement immediately after the pin for a fast final elimination could also work so Bayley couldn't properly ready herself for the final two.
the shayna one, good lord is hurts, cause kills instantly all the hype that provoke shayna eliminating everyone and how the f**** no one says "hey what about asuka try to enter before her time or shayna broke the glass so they can fight already" or something like that??? I mean all that already happen before and it was accepted, why don't do it then??
The worst one? Exposed the top talent's lack of improv skills. Henry going in was the right call, but the talent needed to just go with it and create a good match thinking on their feet. They plan the match out too much so it doesn't really feel exciting to me.
I can explain the Summer Slam 2003 finish. WWE had JUST started doing single branded PPVs at the time, and Unforgiven, their second Raw brand PPV, was the next show, and they felt Goldberg chasing HHH would make more money than Goldberg defending the belt against HHH. The PPV was actually a huge success business-wise, which I honestly think proves your wrong about this. Also, Goldberg ran headfirst into a sledgehammer. This is a dude that concusses himself on doors, running headfirst into a sledgehammer absolutely WOULD KO him.
Muf-Sasha...LOL it can't be helped. What a misfire WWE did with Bayley and Sasha Banks after they both got taken off the RAW Women's Championship scene from the hot potato or awful angle bull 💩.
i am glad the 2 chamber matches i saw were very good acually. no way out 2008 both chamber matches raws for a shot at wwe title and other for a shot at the world title
Glad to see I'm not the only one who took issue with that first Chamber match for the Women, everything was perfect for Sasha and Bayley to set up their feud at Mania and all they had to do was get rid of their biggest enemy at the time in story Alexa and instead of doing that and getting her out they have Sasha break up her and Bayley's alliance early before you can even say you're guaranteed a new champion like it made absolutely no sense especially given the fact Alexa made both Bayley's and Sasha's lives hell on Raw most of 2017. WWE in the end should've went with Sasha and Bayley beating down with Bayley pinning her only then after she's pinned Sasha kicks Bayley and to set up an underdog moment for Bayley since she started off one of the first women in the chamber, beat Sasha, have Sasha sitting outside the chamber upset like in the actual match, and have Bayley cut the same promo as Alexa before it got heelish and then have Sasha come in and attack Bayley putting her in the Bank Statement without letting go setting up the feud and match for Mania, would've been so much better.
No,lol...Until the moment in which Sasha attacked Bayley, everything in that match was right...They could've had Sasha eliminating Bayley after the betrayal with a brutal attack,then after the heel turn would've been executed,she would've defeated Alexa and then Alexa could've been involved in non title feuds while Bayley would've dethroned Sasha at SummerSlam...There isn't any way of having "underdog" promo becoming a heelish promo or for the attack after the match....
I think WWE is extreme to make Miz a legit champion and not a coward. Sure, he plays the character well, but he has the potential to have great matches, backlash ‘18 with Rollins being prime example. Let him have a legit run and not a boring one
I mean on paper a chamber match filled with weapons sounds fun and could lead to some good spots, it’s just that the big dub gat the execution very very wrong. The weapons should have been in the spaces between the pods so you can have fun weapon spots from the start and have someone actually go through a table. (For the love of god if a hardcore match has a table and no one goes through it you know you did a bad job)
They’ve been getting it wrong since it was its own PPV and since they went with the Weenie Hut Jr chamber. Just like Hell in a Cell, the match means nothing now.
While it wasn't a mistake, imagine if Santino had beaten Bryan for the World Heavyweight Championship in 2012... would've popped me huge tbh. Would also like to mention the 2015 tag team chamber match for being a right mess with too many cooks in the chamber
Imagine the panicking they must've had instead of Dolph Ziggler having to instruct everyone just have them team up on Henry big moves and he's napping until he's supposed to enter the match that's literally what happens in every multi man match people would lie in corners during the rumbles until the end of time
Definitely, the Elimination Chamber match will be worst if a "Mid-Card" title will put on the line. -EC in 2015 put the Intercontinental Title on the line (which is the #1 on this list) -December to Dismember have the ECW Championship (Yes, I considered that a Mid-Card Title. lol) Fast forward to 2023, and WWE is doing it again now for the United States Championship, which is God-awful worst with how the booking has been in the past months.
I'm confused about the third entry, was that even a chamber match? Kinda just sounded like a brief pause to crap on Miz's two title reigns, which while fair isn't what this list is supposed to be?

Shayna going on to lose at Mania made the Chamber match feel even worse in hindsight.
Big E was treated so badly as WWE Champion.

Like cmon you should’ve seen that coming, ‘submission magician’
They CONSTANTLY have Shayna lose to roll ups and it makes no sense.
Agree with Shayna and E but come on now Sasha won multiple women's titles and main evented WM they never messed her up.
@@ps1de In terms of achievements and such, yes. But her storylines were often very bad indeed
Why didn't they just all gang up, beat Mark Henry down and then say to him: "Wait until you were meant to come in, and 'recover' from the beatdown at that point."
Improv is hard and hindsight is 20/20, because seriously...yeah, that would have been a good call
that would have actually been a good idea but in panicky situation it is very hard to have good ideas
I think at the time the pod glass came off, there were still “too few” people in the ring to sell/justify a beatdown of who was supposed to be the monster of the match.🤷
And have henry slightly recover from time to time and getting ganged up again the moment he stands up
I was expecting a "number 1.5, Shawn's brown trousers - Just why?" But good vid nonetheless.
Don't forget the hair
I'll never understand why they didn't just work Hunter's injury into the match. Have Evolution and Goldberg come face to face backstage, Goldberg says something about Ric Flair who gets so pissed that he throws his drink in Billy-boy's face, and Goldberg spears Flair out of his shoes and into Triple H, who takes an awkward fall, tearing his groin
That way, when Trips loses, he doesn't look weak because everyone knows he was hurt already and Jackhammer Jerry can look strong by winning the match and the title
Apparently Goldberg refused to take HHH’s place on a euro tour which pissed of Vince so this was the punishment
It's because WWE had just started doing separate brand PPVs at the time, Unforgiven 2003 was the second ever Raw brand PPV and they needed a big match for it, and since the money is more in the chase, they felt that it was a better business decision to have Goldberg beat HHH for the belt there instead.
Which, btw, worked. The show was a massive success from a buyrate perspective. But nobody EVER wants to bring that up, because they are still complaining that Goldberg got buried...because apparently the guy who concusses himself on doors could NEVER be pinned from running headfirst into a sledgehammer.

Alternatively having Bayley perform the fourth elimination but Sasha using the opportunity to steal victory by going for the Banks Statement immediately after the pin for a fast final elimination could also work so Bayley couldn't properly ready herself for the final two.
The Miz beats Randy Orton for the WWE title and went on to defend it against Jerry Lawler...Wow
"What a fighting champion"💀😂🤣🤣
No "beefy boys in the pods, beefy boys trading clods, beefy boys sweating bods, lets go limmie chambles"
The only thing they got wrong about the 2020 women's elimination chamber match is the pay-off at Wrestlemania
The Sasha and Bayley one reminds me of Nikki eliminating Brie at the first Rumble to then be eliminated by Asuka immediately
the shayna one, good lord is hurts, cause kills instantly all the hype that provoke shayna eliminating everyone and how the f**** no one says "hey what about asuka try to enter before her time or shayna broke the glass so they can fight already" or something like that??? I mean all that already happen before and it was accepted, why don't do it then??
The worst one? Exposed the top talent's lack of improv skills. Henry going in was the right call, but the talent needed to just go with it and create a good match thinking on their feet. They plan the match out too much so it doesn't really feel exciting to me.
I can explain the Summer Slam 2003 finish.
WWE had JUST started doing single branded PPVs at the time, and Unforgiven, their second Raw brand PPV, was the next show, and they felt Goldberg chasing HHH would make more money than Goldberg defending the belt against HHH.
The PPV was actually a huge success business-wise, which I honestly think proves your wrong about this.
Also, Goldberg ran headfirst into a sledgehammer. This is a dude that concusses himself on doors, running headfirst into a sledgehammer absolutely WOULD KO him.
Muf-Sasha...LOL it can't be helped. What a misfire WWE did with Bayley and Sasha Banks after they both got taken off the RAW Women's Championship scene from the hot potato or awful angle bull 💩.
Solid List.
1995 was the worst year in wwe from a financial standpoint. I would argue 2022 (the first half) was the worst from a creative standpoint.
Nah I'd say everything from hell in a cell 2019 to hell in a cell 2021 was the worst era of wwe from a creative standpoint
@@brycemorrell4541 Amen on that, but early 2022 was really rough
@Bryce Morrell split the difference and just go from 2019 to wrestlemania 2022?
@@nathangibbs7149agreed 👍💯
i am glad the 2 chamber matches i saw were very good acually. no way out 2008 both chamber matches raws for a shot at wwe title and other for a shot at the world title
There needs to be a secret base rewind of the elimination chamber , or any wwe match really
Glad to see I'm not the only one who took issue with that first Chamber match for the Women, everything was perfect for Sasha and Bayley to set up their feud at Mania and all they had to do was get rid of their biggest enemy at the time in story Alexa and instead of doing that and getting her out they have Sasha break up her and Bayley's alliance early before you can even say you're guaranteed a new champion like it made absolutely no sense especially given the fact Alexa made both Bayley's and Sasha's lives hell on Raw most of 2017. WWE in the end should've went with Sasha and Bayley beating down with Bayley pinning her only then after she's pinned Sasha kicks Bayley and to set up an underdog moment for Bayley since she started off one of the first women in the chamber, beat Sasha, have Sasha sitting outside the chamber upset like in the actual match, and have Bayley cut the same promo as Alexa before it got heelish and then have Sasha come in and attack Bayley putting her in the Bank Statement without letting go setting up the feud and match for Mania, would've been so much better.
No,lol...Until the moment in which Sasha attacked Bayley, everything in that match was right...They could've had Sasha eliminating Bayley after the betrayal with a brutal attack,then after the heel turn would've been executed,she would've defeated Alexa and then Alexa could've been involved in non title feuds while Bayley would've dethroned Sasha at SummerSlam...There isn't any way of having "underdog" promo becoming a heelish promo or for the attack after the match....
Sarah Hogan-- OH, BROTHER!
Triple H is incredibly full of himself for someone who wasn't even that good.

Any reign by the Miz is awful, Otis winning the MITB was definitely one of my favourite highlites, pity he didn't get to cash it in.
I think WWE is extreme to make Miz a legit champion and not a coward. Sure, he plays the character well, but he has the potential to have great matches, backlash ‘18 with Rollins being prime example. Let him have a legit run and not a boring one
8:41 that was No Way Out 2007 even tho there was a lot of people from other brands
3:06
She killed who? Hogan? Lmao
I mean on paper a chamber match filled with weapons sounds fun and could lead to some good spots, it’s just that the big dub gat the execution very very wrong. The weapons should have been in the spaces between the pods so you can have fun weapon spots from the start and have someone actually go through a table. (For the love of god if a hardcore match has a table and no one goes through it you know you did a bad job)
And I believe Kofi Kingston can enact his rematch clause
If the plan was always bug gifs on the canvas, Bray winning is the worst Chamber moment.
Mu-cades 😂 and Shanya kills the Women's divison, still loses 😢
They’ve been getting it wrong since it was its own PPV and since they went with the Weenie Hut Jr chamber. Just like Hell in a Cell, the match means nothing now.
Did Adam say Hogan instead of Logan while expeaining what happened for #8?
"Main Event Jack Swagger open up a rift to the blandest circle of hell" WtxJaichi would disagree lol
While it wasn't a mistake, imagine if Santino had beaten Bryan for the World Heavyweight Championship in 2012... would've popped me huge tbh. Would also like to mention the 2015 tag team chamber match for being a right mess with too many cooks in the chamber
Imagine the panicking they must've had instead of Dolph Ziggler having to instruct everyone just have them team up on Henry big moves and he's napping until he's supposed to enter the match that's literally what happens in every multi man match people would lie in corners during the rumbles until the end of time
The goldberg call was the worst by far, pissed me off watching when I was 7 years old, and still pisses me off now.
Must've escaped my mind when Hogan entered the 2020 women's chamber
Shayna Baszler entire main event run is going to be a missed opportunity…
Definitely, the Elimination Chamber match will be worst if a "Mid-Card" title will put on the line.
-EC in 2015 put the Intercontinental Title on the line (which is the #1 on this list)
-December to Dismember have the ECW Championship (Yes, I considered that a Mid-Card Title. lol)
Fast forward to 2023, and WWE is doing it again now for the United States Championship, which is God-awful worst with how the booking has been in the past months.
I miss plumpy
I'm confused about the third entry, was that even a chamber match? Kinda just sounded like a brief pause to crap on Miz's two title reigns, which while fair isn't what this list is supposed to be?
Big e should of had one on one vs brock
