Considering his work in TNA...okay...not going to say it...but I'm thinking it.

But he was the every man the crowd could get behind, putting it all on the line for the cause.
He was my favorite wrestler and after Hell in the Cell and everything it took to put him down I figured he could legitimately beat the shit out of Rock and Austin. A super-run is out of the question, but being on top for three-four PPVs as champ was certainly reasonable.
