This isn't related to politicking really, but anytime Bret/Montreal gets brought up I laugh imagining what could have happened had Bret not gotten the lucrative WCW contract offer and therefore decided to milk the WWF for all it was worth with his 20 year contract offer.

Offering a 20 year contract to a guy who was about to turn 40 is just absolutely mad in any scenario. Even if you assume he'd have stayed healthy, how much longer would he have realistically been working a full-time schedule? I know there were provisions in the deal for him to transition to an office job at some point but still...just an insanely long commitment to make to anybody.
