10 WWE Wrestlers Who Just Missed A Grand Slam Championship

4. Steve Austin

One of the biggest stars in WWE history, Stone Cold Steve Austin is the only three-time Royal Rumble winner, and a triple crown winner (as are most men on this list).

Despite being a six-time world champion, two-time Intercontinental champ and four-time tag champ, Austin never tasted European or (WWE) United States gold, meaning the Hall-of-Famer missed out on being a Grand Slam champion.

It’s worth noting that Austin did hold the Million Dollar Championship during his run as the Ringmaster, but like the Cruiserweight Championship, it has never been acknowledged as an acceptable tertiary title to qualify for a Grand Slam.
