As revealed Saturday evening on the return of WWE Backstage on FS1, Randy Orton will enter the men’s Rumble in the first position. He will be followed by Edge in the second spot, allowing the two men to pick-up where they left off when they last fought in the “Greatest Wrestling Match Ever” back at WWE Backlash in June.
