Oh... PLEASE.
Yeah, imagine it. Imagine the dream matches, the massive PPV cards, the crowds gone wild, the packed arenas...
...and then imagine the egos, the poltics, the quintuple main events, the IWC screaming about how O'Haire, Palumbo, Storm, Jindrak, Van Dam, Dreamer, Awesome, and many more, were released from the company- and make no doubt, no company that employs Austin, Rock, Hogan, Taker, Goldberg, Steiner, Flair, the entire Kliq, and possibly Sting is going to pay for a bunch of guys they're not EVER going to use. With that card you'd have been lucky to get any kind of tag team scene in there.
Additionally, anyone who thinks that WCW wouldn't have ultimately been booked as the heel squad in the end is an idiot.
Yeah, "what if" situations are fun, but let's not pretend this stuff could have worked. Someone's ego would have taken hold, and a main event would have been completely ruined by a Hogan stroke-pull, or Goldberg kicking someone in the head, etc, etc. I ask Jericho fans: would he ever have been the first ever Undisputed Champion if the likes of Hulk Hogan, Goldberg, Flair, and Kevin Nash had all been on the active roster? (The answer is no, btw, you're welcome.)
