Top Ten Content Blizzard Will Recycle

It's a known fact that Blizzard likes to "reintroduce" the "most-popular" content of it's time as "new" content! From Onyxia to the Deadmines to the return of Zul Gurub and Zul Aman next patch. And let's let's not forget Ragnaros in the not "too soon" future. As we're looking at all this rehashed content, the question becomes...what will Blizzard recycle next?
The Top Ten is a contest run by WoW Vault with content chosen for the list from among the replies! Whichever reply gets chosen as #1 will receive 2 weeks if IGN Insider VIP!
Disclaimer: Winners with too many ToS violations on their account may not be eligible to receive the reward.

I'm 50/50 on two scenarios.
They're going to re-re-introduce Naxx with a third scourge invasion. So then we have to go back to the "new and improved" Northrend and kill Bolvar because he couldn't cut it as the jailor of the damned and ended up getting corrupted by Ner'zhul and turning into another Arthasomgmustkill!
Or they're going to have Sargaeras resurrect Kil'jaedan, Archimonde and Illidan. And they're going to cataclysmiclly ravage what's left of Outlands so we have to travel through the dark portal to stop them....for some reason. Because you know. We can't just find a way to permanently close the dark portal and cut off the threat to our world like that.

Unlike the majority, I couldn't care less if the content is "rehashed". I notice less because I know about 1% of the lore. It bores me to tears. I don't give a rat's behind about Arthas or Illidan or whoever else those people are. I just want to kill stuff.
Fix the more important problems like Q times and painfully long instance runs.

I think Heroic version of the remaining 5 man instances from classic will be natural choice for recycled.
Particularly, I will like to see heroic version of :
1. LBRS/UBRS
2. BRD
3. Gnomeregan
4. Marudon
5. Wailing Cavern
I think the World boss can be recycled and revamped as well. Particularly, on PvP servers, having factions/guilds griefing each others have good entertainment value. Particularly, I will like to see:
1. Hogger!
2. Kazzak
3. World dragons
4. White Shark (or any other raid encounter that happen in the water)
Lastly, in Battleground... I will Blizzard to bring back the classic Alterac Valley where you can fight for days in there, and where Ivus and Lokholar actually mean something.

Ah, so the Devs listen to the players when it saves them time in development. (I.E. reusing old content.) Now I understand! If we could just get them to listen to the players about all the broken/boring/tedious underlying mechanics, we'd be in good shape!!

Everyone knows the next recycled content is going to be Kael'Thas Sunstrider resurrected from the death a second time by Deathwing. This time however, he's going to be even more powerful then before and command the forces of the Sunwell which will threaten all of Azeroth.

Well that I agree with, and a very good point.
With all of the bungling of the C team, seems odd though to rag on them for something that's player requested. /shrug

they'll recycle everything.. it's pretty obvious....
MC will be retaken by rag after we "kill" him in the new raid
naxx will come back after bolvar loses control
etc. etc.
and of caorse something will magically "FIX" outland so it's an entire world again and we all have to go back with like 5 new zones
