The previous three entries on this list have focused on one individual wrestler eliminating multiple opponents. Kofi Kingston only managed to defeat two superstars at Survivor Series 2009 but the manner in which he did it and who they were made it that extra bit special.

Towards the end of 2009, it looked like the current New Day member was being considered as a main eventer. He was involved in a great feud with Randy Orton in the build up to this match which saw his team of Christian, Mark Henry, MVP, and R-Truth face The Viper's quintet of himself, Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase, William Regal, and CM Punk. This was match was great.

After 13 minutes Kingston was left on his own against both Orton and Punk. The conniving Orton didn't want any of the Ghanaian, leaving Punk and Kingston to basically have a singles match with each other for around eight minutes. Kingston eventually pinned the Straight Edge Superstar with a rollup. Then, within the blink of an eye, he had defeated Orton after hitting Trouble in Paradise.

Kingston pinned two former world champions in 30 seconds. It was a tremendous way to end a great back and forth contest and the crowd loved it. At that point, it looked like Kingston was heading all the way to the top but it sadly wasn't to be.
