The two Chamber matches are awesome. I like the Smackdown one more. The rest of the card is shit. Sorry for the language.

Match 1. Chamber - Taker vs. Kennedy vs. Cena vs. Edge vs. JBL vs. Angle  WWE Championship
Edge and JBL start the match off. Wait a minute, if there are 5 challengers in the match, why bother having a #1 contender's match? The first man to leave the pod was Angle. He waited in the corner while JBL and Edge went at it. Cena was the next to enter. He went right after JBL. The third man to enter was The Deadman.
