10 Awesome Wrestlers With Surprisingly Bad WrestleMania Records

10. Shelton Benjamin (1-6)

You can almost guarantee Shelton Benjamin’s name will come-up whenever underutilised WWE midcarders are discussed. One of the most athletic wrestlers in WWE history, Benjamin wasn’t much of a talker, but his in-ring skills were undeniable. He was as flashy and eye-catching as they come, but he was never able to break the glass ceiling, despite going down as one of the best Intercontinental Champions in recent WWE history.

WWE never showed a great deal of faith in Shelton, particularly on the biggest show of the year. His sole WrestleMania victory came in 2003, when he and Charlie Haas defeated Los Guerreros and Chris Benoit/Rhyno to retain the WWE Tag Team Titles. They failed in an attempt to win them back the following year, and from there, Benjamin embarked upon his singles run.

Benjamin’s five remaining WrestleMania appearances came in the Money In The Bank Ladder match, and he was unsuccessful on every occasion. He was pegged to return to WWE prior to a failed medical last year, so there’s still a decent chance he’ll eventually get an opportunity to win a big WrestleMania singles match. Until then, however, Shelton Benjamin goes down as one of the least effective wrestlers in 'Mania history, though his acrobatics have highlighted many a MITB match.
