7. Daniel Bryan vs. Santino Marella vs. Wade Barrett vs. Big Show vs. Cody Rhodes vs. The Great Khali (Elimination Chamber 2012)
Daniel Bryan competed in an Elimination Chamber match for the first time at Elimination Chamber 2012 when he had a plethora of opponents looking to dethrone him for the World Heavyweight Championship. However, the inclusions of Santino Marella and former World Heavyweight Champion The Great Khali seemed out of place.
Cody Rhodes, bidding to become a double Champion, held the Intercontinental Championship. However, Marella’s elimination of Rhodes and Wade Barrett was illogical. Nevertheless, Marella was a runner-up in the 2011 Royal Rumble match, and he was looking to cause another upset as he reached the final two alongside Bryan. Marella hit Bryan with the Cobra, making fans think that Marella was going to upset the odds. However, Bryan retained the World Heavyweight Championship in an average Chamber match.
6. Triple H vs. Goldberg vs. Randy Orton vs. Shawn Michaels vs. Chris Jericho vs. Kevin Nash (SummerSlam 2003)
The Elimination Chamber match for the World Heavyweight Championship at SummerSlam 2003 is notorious for a couple of things. The Game wore his biker shorts as he was suffering from a groin injury, and Goldberg’s destructive performance. Furthermore, Randy Orton featured in his first Elimination Chamber match at the age of 23. While he was bidding to become the youngest World Champion in WWE history, he aimed to help his Evolution mentor Triple H retain the World Heavyweight Championship.
Goldberg was on a rampage, and he speared Jericho through a pod. However, Goldberg eliminated Jericho, Randy Orton, and Shawn Michaels from the Chamber. The Game was the last to enter because of his injury and briefly wrestled with Goldberg. Goldberg’s coronation should’ve been at SummerSlam, but Ric Flair slid a sledgehammer into the ring. Triple H clocked Goldberg with the sledgehammer to retain the World Heavyweight Championship.
