For 11 years, No Way Out was the final pay-per-view stop on the road to World Wrestling Entertainment's WrestleMania. Home of some extraordinary matches and moments that have been indelibly etched in the memories of those who watched them, the event was must-see broadcasting for fans as WWE marched toward the biggest event of its calendar year. Unfortunately, the event disappeared from the schedule, replaced by a show devoted to the Elimination Chamber match. It was a disappointing end to a show with such tradition and history behind it. An event that featured extraordinary wrestling matches, monumental returns and the first hints of what fans could expect from the Showcase of the Immortals, No Way Out was one of the signature events during WWE's hottest period as a company. Now, some seven years after the very last incarnation of the event, we relive the 12 matches and moments that helped define the event. From Steve Austin and Triple H's five-star classic in 2001 to Floyd Mayweather breaking Big Show's nose all over his face, the show's legacy is firmly cemented. But which match or moment ranks as the greatest in the history of the pay-per-view? Taking into account only the February editions of the show, thus disqualifying the 2012 broadcast, find out now by clicking the "next" button to your right.
