I honestly do not understand the post above me. Can you clarify what you mean?

I get that my bias may blind me, but it's difficult for me to trace an angle with a subsequent match involving John Cena that I thought really impressed me (even the amazing CM Punk transformation last year was met with what many people I would agree with thought was simply a good match at Chicago met with a fantastic audience and build to it.) I don't get that invested in the matches he performs in, and the ones that I do are rarely if ever about him (regardless of what phase he was in, I didn't care for his rapper phase either.) That's not really that big a deal, there were good moments last night that didn't involve him and I did enjoy them. So all the WWE fans are allowed to have their opinions, but Cena isn't? I don't even know what the purpose of your question is. I don't think I've given any indication that he isn't allowed anything, much less an opinion. The point is when he airs his opinions, they add to his persona. I've read the rumors that he wanted to have elements of his character changed for years, and maybe they're just that, rumors. I can't imagine he'd be satisfied with half of what he does on these programs, at least not if he cared about it.

Its my birthday today, I hope and want these things to happen tonight - Christian does return for a strong push he deserved all along and this is not just speculation -Daniel Bryan retains - Kofi looks strong in the chamber and is given a crazy spot, Morrison esc - Santino gets given a decent spot in the match, playing off his character and creating unique storytelling for the match - And added bonus of a Big Show and Shaq controntation would be nice as well Make it happen Vince! People hatin Teddy.....*waits for Christian* 3 out of 4 isnt bad. Yes it wasnt a blowaway ppv but not every ppv needs to be. Im happy to have Christian back and in a top angle apparently, Santino was incredible, Kofi looked decent and had a good amount of time in there (though it should have been him and Punk final 2 once Jericho left, Kofi/Punk have INSANE chemistry. I want to see it main event ppv at some point). Hopefully the Shaq thing is still on as the keep on mentioning the celebrities/sports stars that Show has lost to in the past at Mania. I just really want to see that match I loved both Elimination Chamber matches, easily 4 stars each from me. Shout outs go to Dolph for being a crazy f*** taking those bumps, Santino for just being incredible, Punk and DB were great as well (who would have thunk it that they would be going into Mania together as champs, especially coming from this long time indie fan of them both) I can understand why they booked Cena like that as they wanted him to look strong going in against Rock at Mania which is the whole point of the feud i think. And maybe hint at a different bit of the character that may be unleashed at Mania. Either way it kept me awake after a long week, so I was atleast entertained enough. Not a great ppv outside of the EC matches, but not terrible either

So all the WWE fans are allowed to have their opinions, but Cena isn't? You are correct.

Here's my random thoughts after being there live:
Santino is ridiculously over!!! Easily the loudest pop of the night! I wasn't buying Santino before the Chamber, but i think i'm starting to believe. Then when Sheamus came out for the save he got 1/10th of the pop that Santino got!
I have a hard time booing Cena. I respect the crap outta the guy. Yeah he's been shoved down our throats, but the guy is entertaining! I thought for sure that the Rock was coming out at the end, and when it was over i thought "that was it?", but then thinking about it i understand the WWE needs Cena to look damn good in the main event of the PPV leading up to one of the biggest main events in Mania history against the Rock. Only complaint about Cena/Kane is being there live and watching a lot of this match on the jumbo tron kinda sucked.
I thought Rhodes & Barrett and Dolph & Kofi looked really good in there chamber matches...PUSH THESE GUYS!!
The divas match was actually decent. Just goes to show when they give some of the divas that can actually wrestle some time, they can put on a good showing.
Nobody cared about Swagger/Gabriel and it's kind of sad. I don't blame the fans because it was a throw away match, but give this feud some build and maybe people will care. I don't get it because i like both guys and would like to see a feud between the two.
I'm glad i got the new Punk shirt right away because it sold out fairly quickly.
Big Show breaking into Bryans cage was pretty cool! Then Bryan getting thrown through his pod multiple times was awesome too!

Wow I wish I had time to read all 113 pages of this thread right now. I missed the forum, but watched the PPV last night with a couple friends. It was fun watching with other because otherwise I may not have enjoyed this one.
Complaints: - Predictable match outcomes (Kane vs Rock at WM come on) - Swagger vs. Gabriel and its on-the-fly booking - Del Rio/Christian/Henry/Otunga/Laurinaitis segment that belonged on Raw. - Jericho's injury spot - No title changes, no big swerves on the road to Wrestlemania yet - No Kharma - Too much Wrestlemania hype makes this PPV feel secondary - Crowd was crapping all over the show half the time
Pros: - Punk & Bryan retain (YES! YES! YES!) - Big Show, Santino, Rhodes, Bryan - all entertaining - Chamber matches was good - Ambulance match was good
Those are pretty much the things I remember, this being the day after the PPV.

Last night was amazing for me. We had the last row in section 1 and we had the best signs that night. My body had the Oglethorpe sign he made and he had the "Sorensen Sucked Anyway" sign
I had my Big Nasty Bastard sign taken away but what ever. I got to enter the venue with it but when the Smackdown Chamber match started like 10 minutes after a security guard came and asked another security guard where the Big Nasty Bastard sign was.
