Solid show from top to bottom....and one wonderful moment
A historic night for the WWE, as it is the first PPV with three women's matches in it - and they're all good! (more or less) The best is Nikki Bella vs. Natalya (Nikki probably had the best total package of looks, moves, attitude and crowd control of all the women on the roster at that time), despite a disappointing double-count-out finish, but the wonderful moment I wrote about above occurs in Naomi vs. Alexa Bliss. It's a moment where the thin line between script and real life gets crossed. Obviously it was scripted for Naomi to win the title (and go to Wrestlemania in her hometown as champion), but the crowd's reaction was not (they break out into a "You deserved this!" chant), and she is visibly and legitimately moved. The Elimination Chamber match itself is not one of the greatest, but it does its job. *** out of 4.score 7/10
