— Christan beat Ezekiel Jackson in a dark match prior to the WWE Elimination Chamber pay-per-view. Jackson did not have the ECW Championship belt with him and didn’t work with it this weekend so it appears the belt has been retired.

— As for the World Heavyweight Championship Elimination Chamber match, Chris Jericho won the match off interference by Shawn Michaels setting up The Undertaker vs. Shawn Michaels.
— Edge will announce his Wrestlemania opponent this week on RAW. It’s unknown as of this writing if he’ll challenge Batista or Chris Jericho. While the storyline would suggest Jericho, we cannot confirm that at this time.
