5. Number 3
It is usually the beginning or the end of a match that people remember. The middle is either filled with memorable spots or fodder material. The same can be said for Elimination Chamber matches.
Of the twenty-two Elimination Chamber matches, only two have walked out of this match victorious on such an awkward number. The first was Triple H, who won the match at New Year’s Revolution 2005.Triple H would continue to have a feud with the members of his Evolution stable. He defeated Randy Orton several times, dropped the World Heavyweight title to Batista, and had a feud with Ric Flair afterwards.
The second was Jack Swagger at Elimination Chamber 2013, who won with a surprise roll up on Randy Orton. Swagger would start a feud with then champion Alberto Del Rio. Swagger easily played the role of an American extremist, calling out Del Rio as an improper champion. This was oddly similar to the Kurt Angle and Eddie Guerrero rivalry for the WWE Championship heading towards WrestleMania XX.
