FROM LORDS OF PAIN
- Due to injury, Randy Orton was pulled from the World Heavyweight Title Elimination Chamber match at this Sunday's pay-per-view. A battle royal was held at the Smackdown tapings to determine who would fill Orton's spot in the Chamber and that battle royal was won by none other than Santino Marella.
Here's what looks to be the final card for Sunday's pay-per-view:
Elimination Chamber for the WWE Title The Miz vs. R-Truth vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Chris Jericho vs. Dolph Ziggler vs. CM Punk
Elimination Chamber for the World Heavyweight Title Santino Marella vs. The Great Khali vs. Big Show vs. Wade Barrett vs. Cody Rhodes vs. Daniel Bryan
WWE Divas Title Match Tamina Snuka vs. Beth Phoenix
Ambulance Match Kane vs. John Cena

Good for him, he deserves it. Santino has been stale as shit hanging around the same old guys doing the same old bits on the undercard. He was best when they interacted him with the top guys. Hopefully he puts on a hell of a show at the EC. Maybe this will inject much needed life into his character. For having to book on the fly, I admire the choice.
Also get well Orton. Concussions are no joke.

As of yet I am unsure of how I feel about Santino's inclusion in the Chamber. Having stated that, the quick re-book choice is atleast interesting.

Why not...Santino may not win, but it does break up the monotony of the same guys over and over.

I'm all for Santino in the Chamber. Brings something different to the match. I think with orton out, there is no doubt that Daniel Bryan wins this one.

I don't think Santino makes it into the Chamber.

I don't think Santino makes it into the Chamber. You could very well be right, that this could lead to another swerve. But I'm expecting this match to start the PPV and go off pretty much as expected.

The only way I can Santino not making the match is if Drew MacIntyre jumps him and places himself in one of the pods and refuses to leave, forcing Teddy Long to just have the match started.
