Another former Champion in the WWE who embarrassingly lost his gold is Orlando Jordan. Heading into the MCI Center in Washington, D.C., Jordan's United States Championship title defence against Chris Benoit was the very first match on the main card.

Even though Jordan entered the squared circle with such confidence, the night ended horrifically for him, with Benoit squashing him in just twenty-five seconds.

The Rabid Wolverine, after losing the World Heavyweight Championship to Orton in 2004 was determined to get his hands on some gold and left no stone unturned in catching Jordan off-guard.

With one German Suplex followed by a Crippler Crossface, Jordan suffered Benoit's wrath and tapped out within twenty-five seconds.

As shocking as it came across on television, the former United States Champion went on to lose to Benoit multiple times, with most of the matches ending in less than a minute.
