10 Best WWE Elimination Chamber Moments Ever

7. Jeff Hardy's Swanton Bomb - No Way Out 2009

And one of those epic moments came just over six years later at No Way Out, this time courtesy of Jeff Hardy.

Much like Van Dam all those years before him, Jeff found himself atop one of the pods, this time with the Big Show laying beneath him. No prizes for guessing what happened next, as Hardy came crashing back down to earth with a picture perfect Swanton Bomb onto the unfortunate giant below.

What made Hardy’s spot all the more impressive was the excellence in the execution—not to mention the heightened risk that a Swanton Bomb entails.

A splash from the top is one thing, but to dive from that height, tuck your neck and rotate 270 degrees adds a whole new dimension of danger. Van Dam may have set the precedent with his leap from 2002, but in 2009 Jeff Hardy’s Swanton set the bar that little bit higher.
