The main events for the Raw and SmackDown brands were their at-the-time annual Elimination Chamber matches for their respective world championships. The WWE Championship was contested for in the Smackdown main event with champion Edge defending against Jeff Hardy, Triple H, The Undertaker, The Big Show, and Vladimir Kozlov. Triple H emerged victorious by eliminating Undertaker last. Later in the evening, the World Heavyweight Championship was on the line in the Raw main event. The match was to originally feature champion John Cena defend against Kane, Rey Mysterio, Mike Knox, Chris Jericho, and Kofi Kingston. However, as Kingston was making his way to the structure, he was attacked by Edge and taken out of the match. Edge then assumed Kingston's place in the match and won by eliminating Mysterio last, resulting in two of WWE's world championships belonging to members of the SmackDown brand.
No Way Out featured professional wrestling matches that involve different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines that were played out on Raw, Friday Night SmackDown, and ECW on Sci Fi—World Wrestling Entertainment's (WWE) primary television programs. Wrestlers were portrayed as either a villain or a hero as they followed a series of events that built tension, and culminated into a wrestling match or series of matches.[6][7] All wrestlers were from WWE's Raw, SmackDown, and ECW brands—a storyline division in which WWE employees are assigned to a television program of the same name.[8]
After Randy Orton punted the WWE Chairman Vince McMahon, he threatened legal action (kayfabe) against the promotion if he were fired, due to the fact he had won the 2009 Royal Rumble and therefore he was guaranteed a World Championship match at WrestleMania 25. So Vince's son Shane retaliated by returning and attacking Orton on the January 26 episode of Raw. Orton's lawyers proposed a challenge from Orton to Shane for a No Holds Barred match at No Way Out, which Shane accepted.[11]
Another rivalry from the Raw brand heading into No Way Out was between Shawn Michaels and John "Bradshaw" Layfield (JBL). At WWE's December pay-per-view, Armageddon, Michaels was engaged in a narrative in which he announced that he was in need of money to support his family and hence, had agreed to work for JBL. JBL began using Michaels to help him become the World Heavyweight Champion, but all of Michaels' efforts failed. On the February 2, 2009, episode of Raw, JBL challenged Michaels to a match at No Way Out, stipulating that should Michaels win, he would be freed from JBL's employment with all the money JBL has promised him, but if Michaels lost, JBL would have gained ownership of Michaels' name and likeness.
The main rivalry from the ECW brand was between Jack Swagger and Finlay, who were battling over the ECW Championship. On the February 3 episode of ECW, Finlay defeated Swagger in a non-title match to hand the latter his first defeat in a singles match via pinfall in his WWE career. The next day on WWE.com, it was announced that Swagger would defend his ECW Championship against Finlay at No Way Out.
The event opened with the Elimination Chamber match for the WWE Championship involving Edge, Jeff Hardy, Triple H, The Undertaker, Big Show, and Vladimir Kozlov. Edge and Hardy were the first two entrants. Almost three minutes into the match, Edge attempted a Spear on Hardy, who pinned Edge with a Small Package to eliminate him. Edge was shocked that his WWE Championship was no longer in his hands. Kozlov entered at #3, Big Show entered at #4, Triple H entered at #5 and The Undertaker entered at #6. The Undertaker performed a Last Ride on Kozlov to eliminate him, becoming the first man in the WWE to pin Kozlov. The Undertaker then superplexed Big Show from the top turnbuckle, following which Triple H performed a Pedigree on Big Show and Hardy performed a Swanton Bomb off a pod on Big Show. Triple H then pinned Big Show to eliminate him. The Undertaker performed a Tombstone Piledriver on Hardy to eliminate him. The Undertaker performed a Tombstone Piledriver on Triple H, who placed his foot on the bottom rope to void the pinfall at a two count. Triple H performed a pedigree on The Undertaker for a near-fall. Triple H performed a second Pedigree on The Undertaker to win the WWE Championship for a record-setting eighth time, his 13th World Championship overall.[2]
The second match was a No Holds Barred match between Randy Orton and Shane McMahon. During the match, a trash can, an exposed turnbuckle and a Kendo Stick were all used as weapons. Shane hit Orton with a television monitor, causing Orton to bleed. Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase interfered, attacking Shane. Rhodes attempted to hit Shane with a chair but accidentally hit Dibiase with the chair, allowing Shane to perform a DDT on Dibiase onto the chair. Shane performed a Coast-To-Coast into a Trash Can was placed in front of Rhodes. Shane attempted a Leap of Faith on Orton through an announc table, but Orton avoided it and Shane fell through the table. Orton performed a Superplex on Shane through a table for a near-fall. Orton performed an RKO on Shane to win the match.[2]
The third match was for the ECW Championship between Jack Swagger and Finlay. Throughout the match, Hornswoggle, who was in Finlay's corner, attempted to distract Swagger. Swagger performed a Gutwrench Powerbomb on Finlay to retain the title.[2]
The fourth match was an All or Nothing match between Shawn Michaels and John "Bradshaw" Layfield (JBL). Michaels performed Sweet Chin Music on JBL to win the match.[2]
Main event
The main event was an Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Championship, scheduled to involve John Cena, Rey Mysterio, Chris Jericho, Kofi Kingston, Mike Knox, and Kane. Before the match, Edge attacked Kingston and performed a Con-Chair-To on Kofi while he was out cold on the steel steps. Edge then locked himself in a chamber pod, prompting the "ultimate opportunist" to be allowed to stay in the arena by replacing Kofi Kingston in the match. Jericho entered at #1, Mysterio entered at #2 and Kane entered at #3. Kane was eliminated by Mysterio after a Diving Seated Senton off a chamber pod after everything Kane put Mysterio through. Knox entered at #4. Knox was eliminated by Jericho after a Codebreaker. Edge entered at #5 and Cena entered at #6. Cena was eliminated by Edge after a Codebreaker from Jericho, a 619 from Mysterio and a Spear from Edge, guaranteeing a new World Heavyweight Champion. Jericho was eliminated by Mysterio after Mysterio pinned Jericho with a double leg cradle after countering the Walls of Jericho. Mysterio was eliminated by Edge after a Spear, meaning Edge won the match and the World Heavyweight Championship.[2]
Reception
No Way Out was generally well received by critics. John Canton of TJR Wrestling rated the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship a 4.5 star and a 4 star out of 5 stars respectively, these are the two highest rated matches from the event.[2] The event had 272,000 buys, down on the No Way Out 2008 figure of 329,000 buys.[12][2]
Aftermath
Randy Orton continued his feud with the McMahon family, after No Way Out. On the very next night on Raw, Orton faced Shane McMahon in an unsanctioned match, before both Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase had to interfered in the match, after the interference, Orton then punted Shane. When Raw General Manager Stephanie McMahon came out to check on Shane's condition and confront Orton, he attacked her with an RKO, that brought out the furious Triple H to the ring to check on his wife and led to him seeking revenge on Orton any way that he could. On the March 2 episode of Raw, Orton (who was the winner of the Royal Rumble) was goaded by Triple H into choosing to face him in the main event of WrestleMania 25 for the WWE Championship.
Also on the same night, after No Way Out, Edge revealed that he entered the second Elimination Chamber match with the approval of his (kayfabe) wife, SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerrero. John Cena then invoked his rematch clause, but Edge chose not to defend the title on that night and returned to SmackDown with it. Cena and Edge were eventually signed to face off in a triple threat match for the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania with Big Show (who was Edge and Guerrero's ally), as their third opponent.
With their feud now over, Shawn Michaels and John "Bradshaw" Layfield went in different directions. JBL went on to feud with CM Punk over the WWE Intercontinental Championship, which he won on the March 9 episode of Raw to become the ninth Grand Slam winner in company history. Michaels, meanwhile, began feuding with The Undertaker in an effort to set up a match between the two of them for WrestleMania, which eventually took place.
No Way Out 2009 was the final No Way Out held until June 2012. In September 2009, WWE ran a poll on their website to decide a new name for No Way Out. Elimination Chamber was chosen as the new name for the February 2010 event, but WWE in turn decided to end the No Way Out chronology with Elimination Chamber becoming the new February PPV.[13][14] No Way Out 2009 would also be the final No Way Out to occur during a brand split, as the first brand extension ended in August 2011.[15]
All or Nothing singles match[20][2]. Since Michaels won, he was released from his employment contract with JBL. Had JBL won, Michaels would have had to be a permanent employee of JBL.
