PHILADELPHIA Triple H is no fan of losing. So, when The Game got to choose his partner Monday night in a tag team match against Umaga & Snitsky, he went with the sure bet, reuniting with his DX compadre Shawn Michaels. But reunions can sometimes be bittersweet.
Even as the longtime friends showed solidarity and vanquished their foes, the pair knew all too well that in three weeks they will be trying to destroy each other at No Way Out. Earlier in the night, the two were chosen by Raw GM William Regal to compete with four other Superstars Umaga, Chris Jericho, JBL and Jeff Hardy in an Elimination Chamber Match at the pay-per-view, with the winner earning an opportunity to compete against the WWE Champion at WrestleMania XXIV.

Blond Ambition
In his match against Mr. Kennedy, Brian Kendrick hoped to make a statement. Unfortunately, Mr. Kennedy was eager to make his own declaration.

Wardrobe Malfunction
During her match with Melina, Maria found herself with her pants around her knees compliments of her overly aggressive opponent.
