There is no denying how decorated of a career The Miz has had since joining WWE, achieving almost every accolade there is to accomplish; however, that doesn't necessarily mean he is at home inside the Elimination Chamber.

When you think of Elimination Chamber matches, some of WWE's most intimidating talents including Triple H, Goldberg, John Cena and Chris Jericho might come to mind. Miz won't likely be among those individuals, despite all the success he's had in WWE; he just isn't a force to be reckoned with.

Following his loss of the WWE Championship in the spring of 2011, he floundered on the Raw roster and transitioned from feud to feud without any real direction. Going into 2012, he continued to pursue the prestigious prize and was named one of the entrants in the Elimination Chamber for the WWE title that February.

Mind you, this occurred at a time when he was the victim of heat backstage after nearly injuring R-Truth on an episode of Raw. Due to that, fans expected The Awesome One to be the first eliminated from the contest, and to the surprise of many, he was the last remaining combatant before being defeated by CM Punk.

Despite having an impressive outing that night, he didn't deserve to compete among the elite inside the steel structure.
