Every WWE Royal Rumble 'Final Four' - From Worst To Best

13. 2010 - Shawn Michaels, Batista, John Cena & Edge

This is a pretty great field in terms of star power. All four men had been World champions, while Michaels, Batista and Cena had also won Rumbles in the past. Edge's entrance was a surprise, as he'd been out with an achilles tendon injury for a long time. Jericho sold it beautifully. I'm not a fan of a babyface entering at the end of the match and tossing out a few weary rivals for an easy win. I mean, it's not against the rules or anything, but neither is taking a count-out loss to retain a title and I don't see babyfaces lining up to exploit that loophole! It's just an extremely opportunistic move, which is why it fit Edge like a glove. The Rated-R Superstar got a hero€™s welcome for his return, and he got the win by dumping his blood rival Cena, who had pulled the same trick two years before. Unfortunately, Edge wasn't able to defeat Chris Jericho at WrestleMania, which takes a bit of the thrill out of this victory. Still, a damn good, star-powered final four.
