Whilst Survivor Series this past Sunday wasn't the most fruitful of nights for Randy Orton, it was still a landmark match for him. The Viper's appearance as part of Team RAW saw him enter the top 5 for most matches in the history of the PPV.

It is a fitting career achievement for a man often described as 'Mr Survivor Series', given his past accomplishments on the show. He joins an illustrious list of Survivor Series mainstays over the years.

Here are the Superstars who have wrestled the most matches in Survivor Series history.

We kick things off with the aforementioned Orton, whose appearance this past weekend was his 14th overall. His elimination at the hands of NXT's Matt Riddle put his record at 8 wins and 6 losses.

'The Apex Predator' first appeared at the event in 2003 where he made up part of Team Bischoff as they fought Team Austin in a battle for control of Monday Night RAW.

With things coming down to Orton and Shawn Michaels, 'The Legend Killer' used the help of Evolution stablemate Batista to end the night as the sole survivor.

It kicked off a run of three straight years in which Orton would be one of the last men standing in Survivor Series match-ups. His streak would end though in comprehensive style as Team Rated RKO were clean swept by Team DX in 2006.

While he is most associated with multi-man match-ups at the event, Orton can also boast of three successful world championship defenses at Survivor Series on his CV.

2007 saw him once against best Shawn Michaels whilst Wade Barrett was put to the sword in 2010. His most recent defense at the event was in 2013 when he got the better of Big Show in the last title match before the WWE Championship was unified with the World Heavyweight Title.
