8 Wrestlers You Forgot Appeared In An Elimination Chamber Match

Throughout WWE history, there have been 30 Elimination Chamber matches, and most have been fantastic, featuring some of the best wrestlers of all time such as Triple H, Shawn Michaels, John Cena, and Daniel Bryan.

However, in some Chamber matches, there have been some wrestlers who just participate to fill a pod, some have put on an impressive performance, such as Santino Marella at Elimination Chamber 2012, but others had a lackluster performance and therefore fans tend to forget them quickly. Without further ado, let's take a look at eight wrestlers you forgot appeared in an Elimination Chamber Match.

8 Chris Masters

On January 8, 2006, at the New Year's Revolution PPV, Chris Masters participated in the Elimination Chamber match in which John Cena defended the WWE Title. Masters came in fifth, had a few seconds to shine, but couldn't do much before being eliminated by Carlito, who had one of the best performances of his career.

Masters was overshadowed by Carlito, Shawn Michaels, Kurt Angle, Kane, and John Cena, who managed to retain the gold. The Champ’s joy didn’t last long though, as after the match Edge cashed in his Money In The Bank briefcase and defeated Cena.

7 Hardcore Holly (2006)

In the main event of December To Dismember 2006, Hardcore Holly attacked Sabu to steal his spot in the Extreme Elimination Chamber match. Holly was one of five men who wanted to take the ECW World Heavyweight Title from The Big Show.

This was one of the worst Elimination Chamber matches in history, so it's no wonder Hardcore Holly had a lackluster performance, as did the other participants, except for Rob Van Dam and Test. Hardcore Holly lasted just over 10 minutes in the battle, doing nothing extraordinary, until he was eliminated by Test.

6 Big Daddy V (2008)

Big Daddy V (also known as Mabel or Viscera) appeared in an Elimination Chamber match at No Way Out 2008. If you don't remember, don't blame yourself, as it's totally normal that you forgot about it, since his performance was terrible.

Big Daddy V's pod was the first to open, and likewise, he was the first wrestler eliminated from the match. Big Daddy V stayed alive for about four minutes before being eliminated by The Undertaker, who eventually won the match and earned a World Heavyweight Title shot at WrestleMania 24.

5 MVP (2008)

In that same Elimination Chamber match in which Big Daddy V participated, Montel Vontavious Porter also appeared, although his performance was fleeting, so it is not surprising that you have forgotten about it.

MVP entered the match last, but he didn't take advantage of that favorable spot and only lasted two minutes in the match. Porter was eliminated by Finlay after taking a brutal Chokeslam by Undertaker from the top of the pod. MVP does such a great job as a manager that sometimes you forget some moments of his wrestling career.

4 Vladimir Kozlov (2009)

At No Way Out 2009, Edge defended the WWE Title inside the Elimination Chamber against Triple H, Jeff Hardy, The Big Show, The Undertaker, and Vladimir Kozlov.

Kozlov lasted quite a long time in the ring. However, when he had the spotlight, the match was quite boring. Kozlov tried to show his power and look dominant, but his performance was just ordinary. Vladimir Kozlov was the second eliminated of the match, after receiving The Last Ride from Undertaker.

3 Mike Knox (2009)

You probably forgot that Mike Knox also appeared in an Elimination Chamber, in fact, many probably forgot that Mike Knox ever worked for WWE.

The main event of No Way Out 2009 was a World Heavyweight Title Elimination Chamber match. Mike Knox was the fourth entrant, he started with some destructive sequences, but quickly cooled down and was eliminated after four minutes by Chris Jericho, who by the way is the wrestler with the most eliminations scored in Elimination Chamber matches, with 10. It was an absolutely forgettable performance for Mike Knox.

2 Ted DiBiase Jr. (2010)

At the first Elimination Chamber PPV, Ted DiBiase Jr. entered the structure looking to take the WWE Title away from Sheamus. John Cena, Randy Orton, Kofi Kingston, and Triple H had the same goal.

Obviously, DiBiase was the weakest link, however, when his pod opened, he looked pretty good, even surprising everyone by eliminating none other than Randy Orton. Kofi Kingston ruined DiBiase's momentum by quickly eliminating him. Subsequently, John Cena stole the show by becoming the new champion. But that’s not all, as Batista also took the spotlight by defeating John Cena and becoming WWE Champion. So, hardly anyone remembers that performance by Ted DiBiase Jr.

1 Cody Rhodes (2012)

Cody Rhodes had both good and bad moments in WWE, some memorable moments and some forgettable ones. One of those Cody moments that people may not remember is when he participated in an Elimination Chamber match in 2012.

Rhodes lasted for almost 20 minutes, his performance was average, but he played a huge role in the match, as he eliminated Big Show. Nonetheless, Cody Rhodes was surprisingly eliminated by Santino Marella via roll-up, who would have won the match if not for Daniel Bryan.
