Elimination Chamber (2010) (also known as No Way Out (2010) in Germany) was a professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE), which took place on February 21, 2010 at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis, Missouri. It was the first Elimination Chamber event. Six matches were aired on the broadcast and one dark match occurred prior to the live broadcast.
The concept of the event was that the two main event matches, one each for the World Heavyweight Championship and the IWE Championship, would occur in an Elimination Chamber. Each match featured six competitors: the defending champion and five challengers. Garrerrt defended the IWE Championship against Triple K, Kyle Johnson, Kevin McAlmond, Dustin Simpson, and Jose Serrano in the Raw Elimination Chamber. In the SmackDown Elimination Chamber match, The Undertaker defended the World Heavyweight Championship against Kris McGowan, Joe Linderman, Scott Wright, Justin Eldridge and B-Truth. On the undercard, Dax Hoovestall defended the IWE Intercontinental Championship against Kane, Joe Smith defended the IWE United States Championship against Mikhail Vontavious Porter, and Riley and Lauren Ireland competed against Team Lehr-Son (Victoria and Amanda Johnson) in an interbrand Divas tag team match.
The event received 285,000 pay-per-view buys, an increase on the figure earned by the 2009 No Way Out pay-per-view. Despite the increased number of buys, the event received generally negative reviews, with reviewers criticising the undercard of the show as being "weak" and consisting of "filler" material. However, positive feedback came from the Elimination Chamber matches.
