WWE No Way Out 2008

Customer Reviews:

• 2 Chambers was overkill: I enjoyed the PPV, however, the SmackDown / ECW Chamber match was unnecessary and inferior to the RAW one. Otherwise a good PPV.
  
  Also, I was hoping this would be in Anamorphic Widescreen, now that WWE is all HD now.
• Decent with Chambers: I have been a wrestling fan since 1996 and have watched all kinds of wrestling. I have a wrestling DVD/VHS collection spanning over 50 all together. This is the most complete and accurate review of this DVD you will find. I hope you find this review helpful; remember to vote helpful or not helpful. (Note-Each DVD I review has a "Match of the DVD" award somewhere in it.)
  
  WWE No Way Out 2008
  For the first night in WWE history, two elimination chambers will be contested in one night. One for the Raw Main Event of WWE: Wrestlemania 24 and one for the Smackdown Main Event of WWE: Wrestlemania 24. Three world titles are on the line and Ric Flair puts his career on the line one again. This event is decent, but without the Chamber matches this wouldn't be anything worth picking up. The cover and DVD menu's are well done. Also, I really like the theme song.
  
  ECW Championship Match
  Chavo Guerrero(c) VS CM Punk
  Why is Chavo the ECW Champion? I have no idea. Either way, this is a solid match. Nothing amazing, but nothing horrible. You probably will only watch this match once.
  RATING-7/10
  
  Mike Adamle interviews Rey Mysterio and it is reveals that Mysterio has a torn bicep. Floyd "Money" Mayweather makes an appearance as well.
  
  Smackdown Elimination Chamber
  Undertaker VS Batista VS Finlay VS Big Daddy V VS MVP VS Great Khali
  Four of the wrestlers in this match are big men wrestlers, so expect a slower paced match. The match starts with Batista and Undertaker and honestly doesn't get good until the 3rd man enters the match. There are some nice spots including BDV being hit with a DDT on the steel and MVP being thrown off the internal chamber.
  RATING- 8.5/10
  
  Career Threatening Match
  Ric Flair VS Mr. Kennedy
  Flair has been having many of these matches lately due to his new storyline. Vince McMahon says that if Flair loses any one-on-one match then he has to retire. This match is your average Raw match at best.
  RATING- 5/10
  
  World Heavyweight Championship
  Edge(c) VS Rey Mysterio
  Mysterio has a torn bicep in this match, so you can't expect an amazing match here. Your average Smackdown match with a decent, despite being almost the same as the one at WWE Royal Rumble 2008, ending.
  RATING-5/10
  
  After the match, final Mysterio is being helped from ringside, Big Show's music hits. Big Show makes his return and tells us how he's lost 108 pounds and will be champion again. Then, he goes out of the ring and attacks Mysterio. He brings him back into the ring and sets him up for a chokeslam. Floyd Mayweather takes it upon himself to enter the ring and confront Big Show. What happens next will go down in history for years to come.
  
  WWE Championship
  John Cena VS Randy Orton(c)
  Cena returned at WWE Royal Rumble 2008 and went on to win the Rumble match. Cena couldn't wait for WWE: Wrestlemania 24 to get his title shot, so he's facing Orton tonight. The crowd already hates Cena and that always makes for an interesting dynamic. You get a lot of punch-punch and kick-kick and your Cena/Orton moves, and that is all. The ending and a RKO on the floor make this only a little bit more interesting than the previous two matches.
  RATING-6/10
  
  Raw Elimination Chamber (Match of the DVD)
  Triple H VS Shawn Michaels VS Jeff Hardy VS Chris Jericho VS Umaga VS JBL
  No Elimination Chamber match has been as good as the original from WWE Survivor Series 2002 - Elimination Chamber, but I must say that this one is. This match starts with Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho. These two start the match off very well. Every single person has highlights in this match. Michaels bleeds all over the place. Umaga plays his character very well in this match. The final two in the match put on an amazing final few minutes.
  RATING- 10/10
  
  Extra Include-
  Shawn Michaels Congratulates Ric Flair on winning his match and Shawn hints his ideas for WWE: Wrestlemania 24.

• If It Aint In Widescreen, Dont Buy It: Royal Rumble 2008, and WWE starts broadcasting in Widescreen. Royal Rumble 2008 DVD, released as Full Screen.... No Way Out 2008 DVD, released as Full Screen...
  
  WWE wont be getting any money from me in 2008 untill they start releasing their PPV DVDs in Widescreen. It seems a waste of time buying these DVD releases, when you know that there is a Widescreen version available on the internet in 720p already. Wrestlemania 24 is coming out on Blu-Ray I know that, but is the WWE just going to not worry about the other PPVs?
• No Way Out 2008: No Way Out 2008 was a good event to begin the road to Wrestlemania 24 unlike the rumble. The 2 Elimination Chamber Matches were the highlights of the night and also the return of the Big Show.
  
  1. Ecw World Championship
  Chavo Guererro vs. Cm Punk
  a good decent match to start off no way out. cm punk is a good competitor and chavo is a guererro so you can't go wrong with him. i'm glad the fans booed punk when he tryed to pull off the 3 amigos, punk shouldnt have tryed to pull that off but still a decent match to watch. 3.5/5
  
  2. Smackdown Elimination Chamber Match
  Undertaker vs. Batista vs. Great Khali vs. Big Daddy V vs. MVP vs. Finlay
  a great elimination chamber match. i loved how undertaker and batista started it off and ended the match, that was good. it went kind of slow at first with the big guys entering the match but then it really got picked up when they got eliminated. great match. 4.5/5
  
  3. Ric Flair vs. Mr. Kennedy
  an alright decent match. kennedy is getting better and flair always makes his matches entertainable no matter how old he is. decent match. 3/5
  
  4. World Heavyweight Championship
  Edge vs. Rey Mysterio
  not your typical edge and mysterio match due to rey's injury. it went slow and it was short, not a lot of high flying impact moves except for the end where edge speared rey out of mid-air for the win, other than that nothing exciting. 2.5/5
  
  Big Show makes his big return back to show how much weight he lost and he also confronts Floyd Mayweather which leads to their match at wrestlemania.
  
  5. WWE Championship
  Randy Orton vs. John Cena
  this wasn't their best confrontation they had but they did gave something to watch on the other hand. it had some good brawling between them too and some good outside action where orton rkoed cena on the floor. this match wasn't great but it's pretty watchable though.it was a little unexpected in the way it eneded. 3.5/5
  
  6. Raw Elimination Chamber Match
  Triple H vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Umaga vs. Chris Jericho vs. JBL
  this match was one step further than smackdowns ec match, this match was unbeleiveable. it started out with some good wrestling between jericho and hbk. once umaga and triple h got in there, it got pretty violent and they brought some furiousness into the match. some chairs got introduced and they used some/what. it came down to triple h and hardy. hardy would have been a good candidate to become # 1 contender but i guess it wasn't meant to be, but nevertheless amazing match all the way. 5/5
  
  no way out 2008 was a pretty good ppv. i would buy to see the elimination chambers match if i was yall, they were really something. its worth the purchase on dvd.
