Lance Storm was never a main eventer in WCW, but you could have used him as a solid hand in the mid-card or tag division. I think audiences would have loved seeing The Impact Players mix it up with Edge & Christian, The Hardyz and The Dudleyz. You had these cruiserweights come in which could have livened up shows.
90 percent of the people in the Invasion army were chumps to begin with. If they weren't chumps they would have had Turner contracts. Making them look good for no reason wouldn't make sense either.
