11 WWF Title Challengers No One Remembers

11. Carlito

People often forget just how vital to John Cena's push Carlito was. He was the first wrestler to really put a dent in Cena, hitting him with the chain necklace to steal the US title. He also ended Shelton Benjamin's long reign with the intercontinental championship, holding it for 90 days himself before losing it to Ric Flair.

When Cena hit his high point, riding as Raw's top man with the WWE title, he was set to face his biggest challenge up to that point, taking on his old rival Carlito, and three other former world champions in the Elimination Chamber at the 2006 edition of New Year's Revolution.

Carlito was a house on fire that match, eliminating three of the six men before finally succumbing to Super-Cena, who used every ounce of his power to overcome the odds.

Even after winning this match, Cena would still lose the title, becoming the first victim of the Money In The Bank cash-in at the hands of Edge.

Carlito still managed to have a decent career for himself after this match, despite never getting close to the main title again. He and his brother Primo would go on to make history in the WWE as the first unified tag team champions, uniting both the tag titles from Raw and SmackDown.
