WM22: Kurt Angle def. Randy Orton & Rey Mysterio to retain the WHC
-Angle was just coming off a great win against Taker from No Way Out, and he seemed to be bringing a lot of credibility to the Championship.
WM27: Alberto Del Rio def. Edge to win the WHC
Turned out to be Edge's last match, and it was a nice ending to his career, but Del Rio was hurt from this big time. I'm still not sure if he's recovered.
Unforgiven 2002: Rob Van Dam def. Triple H to win the WHC
RVD was over and ready to go to the next level. I'm sure they had their reasons for the booking, but I think this was a chance that WWE should have taken.
Summerslam 2007: Randy Orton def. John Cena to win the WWE Championship
We were in the middle of Cena's reign of terror. Orton was on fire, as was the crowd, and it would have been a great moment for the event, the championship, and Orton.
Summerslam 2005: Matt Hardy def. Edge
At the time, there was tons of buzz surrounding this match. This was just the beginning of the feud, but the fans were ready to see Matt get at least some bit of revenge at Summerslam. Instead of making two stars out of this feud, WWE only made one.
