Honestly, I dont think Owen would have ever had a World Title run. I mean for god's sake he was with the WWE for 10 years before the accedent...and his popularity peaked a few years before anyhow. He was a great talent, however, I think had he not died he would have gone on to be revealed as the Blue Blazer when he slowly turned heel by Jarrett getting mad and ripping the mask off...Jarrett and Owen would have feuded over the IC title instead of Jarrett and Chyna...instead of Chyna dropping the belt to Jericho, Owen would have in some three, a few fours, MAYBE one 5 star match. From there the IC title history woudl continue the same...Owen would have become nearly forgotten wrestling on HeAT, he probably would have been in RTC, and then retire.
The sad fact is, while Owen was a great talent, he didn't have a great body, his character(s) (counting Blazer) where not going to get him over any, and his in ring skill will always be overshadowed by his borthers. I loved Owen Hart, but he was not the man upon which the WWF(E) would have made into the flagship superstar.
As for right now, I dont think he would still be in the game. Maybe he would have made a few WWA or NWA-TNA apearances (similar to that of what Lex Luger, Sting, or Hulk Hogan have done)
I think the BIGGEST thing that would have changed is that Bret would be a little bit more likly to come back and make a few appearances. However that is just my guess.
