Angle: Whats that?
Heyman: You see, tonight in the Elimination Chamber, three men will start in the ring. Kurt, Shawn, by the results of a random drawing, the two of you will be starting things off, along with one other man.

Carlito: Paul, these guests are gonna be the biggest surprise of the night. Carlitos Cabana is gonna be the spotlight of the show.
