'''No Way Out''' was a Wrestling/{{WWE}} pay-per-view event that debuted in February 1998 as an ''In Your House'' event, and then two years later became the event rebranded to its current title and was WWE's annual February event. During the brand extension, No Way Out was an exclusive PPV event for ''[[Wrestling/WWESmackdown Smackdown]]'' from 2004 to 2007. After ''Wrestling/WrestleMania 23'', brand-exclusive pay-per-view events cease to be held, being that ''No Way Out'' 2007 was the last ever brand-exclusive PPV event in WWE. In 2008, the annual [[GimmickMatches Elimination Chamber match]] was added to the ''No Way Out'' pay-per-view and began conducting two a year at the event, one for ''Raw'' and one for ''Smackdown''.

In 2010, ''No Way Out'' was discontinued, and WWE ''Elimination Chamber'' was created as its replacement. However, the PPV name was brought back in June 2012.

!!This event has examples of:
* TheBadGuyWins:
** 2000: Wrestling/TripleH beats [[Wrestling/MickFoley Cactus Jack]] inside Hell in a Cell, thus putting an end to his career ([[TenMinuteRetirement albeit temporarily]]).
** 2001: Wrestling/TripleH defeated Wrestling/StoneColdSteveAustin in 3 Stages of Hell, which ended their bitter feud that lasted for a year and a half.
** 2002: Wrestling/KurtAngle defeated Wrestling/TripleH to win his [=WrestleMania=] title shot, with Wrestling/StephanieMcMahon as the guest referee. [[note]]Triple H won back his title shot the next night, however.[[/note]] Wrestling/ChrisJericho defeated Steve Austin to retain the WWF Undisputed Championship with the help of [[Wrestling/NewWorldOrder the nWo]].
** 2003: [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]], who had [[FaceHeelTurn turned on the fans weeks prior]], defeated Wrestling/HulkHogan in a ''[=WrestleMania X-8=]'' rematch with the help of Wrestling/VinceMcMahon and special referee Sylvain Grenier.
** 2005: JBL defeated Wrestling/TheBigShow in a Barbed Wire Steel Cage match to retain his title.
** 2006: Wrestling/RandyOrton, who had been making distasteful remarks about Wrestling/EddieGuerrero's death, defeated [[Wrestling/ReyMysterioJr Rey Mysterio]] for the latter's spot to face Wrestling/KurtAngle at [=WM22=] for the World Heavyweight Title, albeit by cheating. Fortunately for Rey, he gets added to the match on ''Smackdown'' a few days later.
* BigDamnKiss: At 2012, Wrestling/{{Kane}} gave Wrestling/AJLee a kiss days after the latter planted one on him on the 6/11/12 episode of ''Raw''.
* BlatantLies: During the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match in 2012, Wrestling/JerryLawler claimed the crowd was chanting "Let's go, Wrestling/{{Sheamus}}!" when they were clearly cheering for Wrestling/DolphZiggler.
* BrokenWinLossStreak: In 2006, Wrestling/BobbyLashley, who had been undefeated since debuting in late 2005, was defeated by [[Wrestling/JohnBradshawLayfield JBL]] due to interference from Finlay.
* CurbStompBattle: The match between Stone Cold and Eric Bischoff in 2003 revolved around Austin beating the hell out of him and winning the match.
* DisqualificationInducedVictory: In 2008, Randy Orton deliberately got himself disqualified in a match against Wrestling/JohnCena by slapping the referee. This was all just a ruse for Orton to retain the WWE title.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: No Way Out 2004 had Wrestling/EddieGuerrero achieving his dream of winning the WWE Championship by defeating Wrestling/BrockLesnar.
* EndOfAnEra: The 2007 event was the last brand-exclusive event until the second brand extension in 2016.
* EnemyMine: The main event of 2007 had Wrestling/WrestleMania opponents from both brands teaming up against each other - Cena and HBK (RAW) against Batista and Undertaker (Smackdown). Things didn't go well for Batista and Undertaker, though.
* HistoryRepeats:
** Chavo Guerrero had won the Cruiserweight Championship 3 times in this event (2004, 2005, and 2007).
** Wrestling/TripleH had won two Elimination Chamber matches in this event in 2008 and 2009.
* HotBlooded: [[Wrestling/JimRoss J.R.]] in 2003, when Steve Austin faced Wrestling/EricBischoff. Not only was Stone Cold coming back from a ten month absence, but Eric Bischoff had kicked a cinder block through Ross's head. Suffice to say, JR was as pumped for Bischoff's comeuppance as the red-hot Montreal crowd.
* HumiliationConga: Happened to Wrestling/JohnLaurinaitis at 2012. Wrestling/BrodusClay held him down while John Cena escaped the cage and sealed Laurinaitis' fate. He was then promptly fired and put through the announce table by Cena.
* LoserLeavesTown:
** From 2000, the Hell in a Cell match between Triple H and Cactus Jack had the stipulation that if Cactus lost, he must retire.
** For the Wrestling/JohnCena vs Wrestling/TheBigShow steel cage match at 2012, both Cena and Wrestling/JohnLaurinaitis' careers were on the line. It ended up with the latter losing his job.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: At 2003 (which took place in Montreal, Quebec), Wrestling/KurtAngle insulted Canadians in general and Wrestling/ChrisBenoit and Wrestling/{{Edge}} in particular, mocking their French heritage (although Edge is Anglo-Canadian, and has insulted French Canadians himself) in the CheeseEatingSurrenderMonkeys idiom. [[UnintentionalPeriodPiece Extremely common at the time]].
* SoreLoser: In 2001, Wrestling/KurtAngle was walking up the ramp crying after losing the WWE title to [[Wrestling/DwayneJohnson The Rock]].
* ThreeRoundDeathmatch: From 2001, Stone Cold and Triple H competed in the first-ever "Three Stages of Hell" match.
