First Raw Match: 23rd May, 1994

Last Raw Match: 20th January, 2020

It was a Matt Hardy tweet asking this very question that triggered much deep-diving from longterm fans to see if he had indeed broke or set records for such an amazing span on the flagship, as well as a hearty of nostalgic appreciation for his 1994 opponent.

Wrestling Nikolai Volkoff during some lean years for the big Russian, Hardy was chopped liver for his opponent during a period in which Ted Dibiase was trying to get something out of him after buying him out of destitution for his Million Dollar Corporation. A talented jobber alongside his brother, Hardy made a great impression bumping around for the listless Volkoff, but would be inspecting the lights for several more years before finally breaking through in 1999.

He's been a bit robbed of a top spot in this list too, in truth. But then if anybody was going to swoop in and claim a prize he didn't really deserve, it was destined to be the same heel that oversaw this very defeat all those years earlier...
