Just cause we love a good controversy, we’re commenting on this. Apparently, Vince McMahon was quite vigilant in making sure that reports of Edge working both Elimination Chamber Matches at Sunday’s No Way Out pay-per-view did not hit the Internet before the show.

McMahon was quite unhappy to say the least when word got out on Christian being pegged as the guy who attacked Jeff Hardy near a stairwell on the morning of the Survivor Series pay-per-view. This actually led to a change in plans as Matt Hardy ended up with Christian’s spot on SmackDown and Christian getting Matt’s top babyface spot on ECW.

To make sure that nobody on WWE’s crew knew what was going to happen, Vince McMahon actually ordered the entire ring crew to put up a huge tarp over the entire Elimination Chamber in order to prevent people from seeing who was in the ring as the mystery wrestlers worked out how the match was going to be scripted.

At the risk of sounding like Jim Gordon, it sounds like escalation to me. Vince is raising the stakes to monstrous tarps surrounding the ring. What’s our next step.
