10 Exact Moments We Gave Up On A WWE Wrestler's Push

Maven had a funny career in WWE. It began with the mother of all upsets when he eliminated Undertaker from the 2002 Royal Rumble, after which he began feuding with Chris Jericho - briefly - for the Undisputed title. Then, after that, nothing - for about two years.

Eventually, he found himself on the same side as the likes of Randy Orton, Chris Jericho, and Chris Benoit in a feud against Evolution, and it appeared, finally, that he was about to get his big break. It didn't last long, though. Shelton Benjamin already occupied Raw's sole "plucky underdog" spot and there was no more room at the inn.

In fact, it was Shelton who put paid to Maven's push by beating him with a roll-up after the former Tough Enough star - now an unconvincing heel - made fun of the Puerto Rican crowd at New Year's Revolution for speaking Spanish. El fin.
