"It Should Have Been _______"

It should have been Eric Bischoff and Paul Heyman leading the WCW and ECW factions during the Invasion. While Vince eventually shelled out the money to get Goldberg and Ric Flair and the nWo and Rey Mysterio later on, if there was one guy he absolutely should have spent the extra money to get right at the beginning of doing the WCW invasion, it absolutely should have been Bischoff. Their rivalry, the idea that those two men and their billion-dollar empires were actually sworn enemies, was the last thing that anyone believed was 'real' in wrestling, and the two of them leading factions against each other on the same show, with Heyman and the ECW guys being an anarchic wild-card group in between, would have been absolutely huge (and would have made up for the fact that the Alliance didn't have any names bigger than DDP and Booker T in their camp).
