Match observations:
DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?!?!?! Chris Benoit walked out of the Elimination Chamber as the new NWA World Heavyweight Champion. He had to eliminate 2 of his good friends to do so but both congradulated him as soon as the bell rung.

The other big story coming out of the main event is Shane Douglas and his superhuman performance. Not only did he survive until the end, but, he eliminated the most men from the chamber. Two of them being Kane & The Undertaker. Who would have ever guessed the "The Franchise" would make such a huge impact in the match?

AMW regained the NWA World Tag Team Title but next week they will defend it against La Resistance.

AJ Styles again walked out as X Division Champion. Word on the street is that starting next week, new challengers for that title will be coming to NWA United.

Jinsei Shinzaki earned the opportunity to wrestle new NWA Champ: Chris Benoit next week as well. Benoit will be the only man that competed in the Elimination Chamber in action next week.

Edge has finally captured the US Title from Randy Orton in a match that rivaled the Elimination Chamber in excitement. Now he has to defend it next week.

There will be some drastic roster changes as some contracts expired this week. No longer with NWA United are:
Kaz Hayashi
Teddy Hart
Abyss
Justin Credible
Dallas
Pat Kenney
Sabu
Batista
Johnny Nitro

Chris Benoit's on his way out? That must really scupper your plans there. I guess he'll be dropping that belt pretty quickly, maybe to Shane Douglas?
