Perhaps the older villain is Driven by Envy. He may be indulging in Blaming the Victim, if he decides the protagionist is the reason for his jealousy. If he wants a final hand-to-hand match with the protagionist, he may even spare the younger character's life because I Need You Stronger.

These also fit
Hey there is one trope that I am curious about. I don't know if it's already there but what is the trope called where the older villain is jealous of how the young protagonist has achieved everything in their life they themselves never did in their younger years and blames and resents them for it?
Some of the examples are Pearl towards Maxine Minx in X trilogy and Park Min Geon (The Bishop) towards Kim Do-Ki in Taxi Driver (Korean Series)
