6. Jeff Avenges Royal Rumble 2008 Defeat

Randy Orton is a relative whippersnapper in this contest, barely out of nappies at the spry young age of just 38. Grizzled vet Hardy (40) tasted defeat to Orton at the Royal Rumble over ten years ago, presumably not long after The Viper learned to walk. Jeff's had more than enough time to plot his reprisal, and won't be making any mistakes in the Providence Center.

There's also an outside chance up-and-comer Shelton Benjamin will be parachuted into the match at the last mo' to spare Randy the embarrassment of defeat, bringing the combined age of the bout's participants up to 120. That's a lot, isn't it?

Result: Jeff Hardy's DDT is better than Randy's.

Benjamin was born in 1987, and is still not dead. He variously enjoys classical music, old-school adventure games (they're not dead), and walks on the beach (albeit short - asthma, you know). He's currently trying to compile a comprehensive history of video game music, yet denies accusations that he purposefully targets niche audiences. He's often wrong about these things.
