WWE Champion The Miz def. U.S. Champion Daniel Bryan in a Non-Title Match (WATCH | PHOTOS)
It was evident that Daniel Bryan wasn't all there. During his battle against WWE Champion The Miz, the United States Champion appeared unfocused, perhaps more concerned with his girlfriend Gail Kim, who had been in a scuffle with The Bellas earlier. As a result, The Cleveland Screamer triumphed in the pair's non-title match just six days before he defends his title against Jerry "The King" Lawler at WWE Elimination Chamber.
Sheamus attacked Mark Henry (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Elimination Chamber mates, you've been warned. Prior to his match with Sheamus, Mark Henry was attacked by the Irishman on the entrance ramp.

He then booted Henry again to put an exclamation on the point.

Edge confronted Alberto Del Rio; Vickie Guerrero made two major announcements (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Mark your calendars. This Friday night on SmackDown promises to be interesting indeed. As Alberto Del Rio bragged about his chances in the World Heavyweight Title Match at WrestleMania, Edge confronted him and pummeled the Mexican aristocrat with a series of blows. Then it was Vickie Guerrero's turn.
SmackDown's "acting" General Manager informed The Rated-R Superstar that there would be an official World Heavyweight Championship coronation of her boyfriend, Dolph Ziggler, on Friday's show. She also revealed that she has evidence of Edge assaulting former GM Theodore Long, and that her revelation will cost her ex-husband his job!
CM Punk def. John Cena (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Raw's anonymous General Manager was at it again. The GM arranged a series of matches involving the six Superstars who will compete in the Raw Elimination Chamber Match. The GM stipulated that if any member of The New Nexus interfered, CM Punk would be eliminated from Sunday's bout. Also, if any of the Elimination Chamber participants themselves were to interfere, they would be barred from competing inside Satan's Structure as well, costing them a possible opportunity at a WWE Title Match at WrestleMania XXVII.
In the first match, John Cena and CM Punk battled to a dirty finish. For WWE's 2010 Superstar of the Year, his demise arrived when Punk tossed a steel chair into the ring to distract the ref. The preachy Superstar then clocked Cena with a wrench before putting him away with a GTS.
