Like Mike Awesome at (I think) Heatwave 1998. Taz and Masato set to square off, Awesome comes out of the crowd and demands the shot. Taz is a fighting champion, why not?
This time around, it's Batista doing a mutual friend a favor. He was friends with Eddie. Benoit was Eddie's best friend. You want the shot? You got it.
Would make for a great story, for sure.
