Would be easy enough to see Owen getting the title in a similar fashion, but you add the fact that he was way better on the mic than benoit, and was actually a phenomenal heel, and I don't see how one could completely count out Owen winning the title.
I'm not saying Owen would make a really great champion like the rock or austin, but that doesn't mean the WWE wouldn't ever put the belt on him.

Agreed. At this point, if Owen were still alive, you'd have to think he would've gotten the strap at some point had he stayed with the company. He would've fallen into the same category as Benoit and Eddie inthat they were all phenominal workers, and like Eddie, Owen could be a great heel. I'm sure at some point, post 2001 and with the brand split, Owen would've gotten at the very least one run.
