15 Superstars With The Most Losses At SummerSlam

2. Chris Jericho – 6 Losses

Of his 10 SummerSlam appearances, Y2J has come out on the losing side more times than not.

For somebody so decorated, SummerSlam hasn’t been kind to Chris Jericho. His very first appearance at the event saw him lose an excellent 2/3 Falls Match to Chris Benoit in 2000, and that largely set the tone for what was ahead for the Ayatollah of Rock ‘n’ Rollah at the annual August extravaganza.

2002 saw Jericho tap out to Ric Flair, 2003 saw him come up short in the Elimination Chamber (eliminated by Goldberg), 2004 was another losing effort in a triple threat involving Edge and Batista, 2005 was a loss to WWE Champion John Cena, and last year was a defeat against the eerie Bray Wyatt.

At times Jericho has been used as the measuring stick to work with up-and-coming talent to help them get over, and that can clearly be seen with some of his SummerSlam matches. And no, I’m not talking about the Nature Boy.
