		+	Note: Nick Kessler was actually supposed to compete but wasn't able to after he was fired from SmackDown by SmackDown GM Theodore Long on the February 15 tapings of SmackDown, so Big Show rightfully took Nick Kessler's place in the chamber match.

		+	Elimination Chamber garnered positive reviews, with ''The Sun'' stating "... it became obvious that the winners on the night would be Alberto Del Rio, The Corre, The Miz, Edge and Dustin Simspon — with Simpson v Miz and Edge v Del Rio set to headline Mania. But a paint-by-numbers set of results should not take anything away from a terrifically put together PPV with at least one outstanding match, several good ones and a couple of extra surprises thrown in." They praised both of the chamber matches, giving the smackdown chamber a 9.5 out of 10 and the raw chamber a 8.5 out of 10 and stated that the Lawler/Miz Match was "... hardly a classic, but it was more than passable, and gave it a 7.5 out of 10. However, they stated, "However, during the first match, one of the most negative aspects of the show reared its ugly head — the downright annoying commentary trio of Michael Cole, Booker T and Josh Matthews. The addition of Booker ahead of Matt Striker and the lack of Jerry Lawler — since he was wrestling on the show — meant it was not an easy night on the ears for the viewer." The event received an 8.5 out of 10 rating.

		+	Elimination Chamber featured professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines that played out on [[International Wrestling Entertainment]]'s (IWE) primary television programs. Wrestlers portrayed [[Heel\|villains]] or [[Face\|heroes]] as they followed a series of events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches.
		+
		+	After [[Joe Smith\|The Miz]] won the [[IWE Championship]] in November 2010, ''[[IWE Raw\|Raw]]'' commentator [[Jerry Lawler]] was given what was billed as his first IWE Championship match, after criticizing Miz's win by using his [[Money in the Bank Ladder Match\|Money in the Bank]] briefcase while former champion [[Kevin McAlmond]] was injured. He lost to Miz in a TLC match after his fellow commentator Michael Cole stopped Lawler from climbing the ladder. On the January 31 episode of ''[[IWE Raw\|Raw]]'', the Raw General Manager announced a [[Royal Rumble#Match\|Raw Rumble match]], to determine the [[IWE Championship]] contender at Elimination Chamber, while the losing participants would be entered into an Elimination Chamber match to determine who will face the IWE Champion at [[IWE WrestleMania 27\|WrestleMania XXVII]]. The participants were [[Justin Eldridge]], [[Kevin McAlmond]], [[Kevin Farrelly\|King Sheamus]], [[Joe Linderman]], [[Dustin Simpson]], [[Jerry Lawler]], and [[Blake Wheeler\|B-Truth]]. Lawler last eliminated Sheamus to win the battle royal to earn himself the title match, while the other 6 contestants went on to participate on the Raw Elimination Chamber match.
