Let me look at the title timeline.

Okay...

So we had The Rock

NOV 15, 1998 - JAN 4, 1999

50 days

Mankind then won his first title from The Rock on Jan 4th.

Mankind

JAN 4, 1999 - JAN 24, 1999

20 days

Rock won it back for 7 days followed by Mankind for 15 days.

My proposal would have been for a single 42 day reign plus his last reign. Let the guy win 6 or so title defenses before having Rock get the title back. I'm perfectly fine with his "second reign" lasting one day.

However, if I would go any further I'd never feud Triple H and Vince and I'd never have Vince win the title and Big Show would not have been champ ever.

There's so much that was great and done perfectly, but I contend that Mankind having two short reigns sucked, especially for die-hard Foley fans.
