I thought about some WCW ones, but the thing with WCW is that they were always going to make bone-headed decisions just because of the philosophy and mentality of people there. You can change one finish, then you're going to get politics fucking up something a month later.

In a perfect world, Hogan would have been willing to play ball and maybe build to something with Bret. But it isn't and he wasn't.

I don't blame Austin's performances or anything. There was an air around the product, you're right, and it didn't help that they were losing all their babyfaces. They probably should have had a tiny bit more foresight and had people built up to go against a heel Austin should they have wanted to go down that route.

Admit it.
Murdoch had one of the best punches ever. He just looked like a sack of shit. But he was amazing.

Billy Graham had a three matches series with Dusty at the Garden, and the matches are really good.

I agree that Sting going over clean in a cage really wouldn't have changed much but that's just how it should have been.

Also, haven't been real active recently and thought Gustavo Fringe was a Guru Dave phase at first. Pretty cool thread idea though Gustavo.

A lot of stuff you can change. With WWE being in the state that it's in currently, I'd probably go change something more recent.

So, I'll go with Survivor Series 2012. The Main Event is CM Punk vs. John Cena vs. Ryback in a triple threat match for the belt. And, this is where The Shield is introduced to us for the first time.

I would have had CM Punk go over squeaky clean with zero Shield interference. So, they would be nullified and would eventually find their own way to the roster.

Roman Reigns would not be shoved down our throats as Vince's eventual true love AKA "The Guy".

Seth Rollins probably wouldn't have 25 nicknames to his credit, change his finisher multiple times, be a more careful worker in the ring, and probably find his own way to stardom with the talent he got.

Dean Ambrose probably ends up being the most popular of the bunch with his attitude and durability.

Trying to think of other big, recent moment that can be changed so the product can be better. Definitely something with John Cena.

My goodness... Im gonna say you messed up the entire WWE timeline with these little changes. So bad that now Vince cloned himself and now is starting to clone more John Cenas! Duh du nana!

I'm gonna say Mania 34 WWE Title Match with Shinsuke going over. It wouldn't have hurt AJ at all, but WWE flushed their biggest ever opportunity have a Japanese Superstar. Not to mention Shinsuke could have been a cornerstone for the company going to Fox, instead of in a turd of a tag team.

Vince had the money to pay Shawn. Charging extra for PPVs got him out of the hole. He just didn't want to pay Bret that much anymore and the Bret/Shawn dynamic was a headache. Plus, I think Vince understood that having talent clogging the top, even if it is someone as good as Bret Hart, was counterproductive then.

One thing I never hear getting talked about is why Bret over Shawn. I mean, Bret was getting paid double, but I wonder about the other factors compounding that issue. Bret ran with Davey Boy and Owen. He had no allies in WCW. Shawn ran with Hunter and had Nash & Hall with influence in WCW.

I wonder if the risk of Shawn being used well in WCW scared Vince out of ever letting him go. Shawn may not have been the biggest ratings or PPV draw in the WWF, but if he went to WCW where he could have been "cool?" Well, who knows how that would change history?

He'd have to be used to unseat Hogan as the lead of the NWO as Bret really should have if they wanted to go that way. Overall I don't think it changes anything other than Shawn not taking the casket bump and not having to retire early on the WCW side. WWF would have seen some changes with Bret hanging around but I still think Austin, Rock, and HHH out do him.

Hogan was never going to play ball with Bret. It's doubtful he would have with Shawn, but he'd be dealing with someone that might have had more of a backstage backing and someone that might have been able to manipulate Hogan back into being a face and edging himself out more.

Shawn's back injury was exaggerated. He did get the surgery, but his personal problems were keeping him away from a proper comeback. I think he was working matches in 2000.

If Shawn manages to get a hold in WCW, no way HHH doesn't jump. He signed a five-year deal once he knew the WCW ship was sinking, or he was at least hedging his bets and playing Pascal's wager a little bit. If Vince went broke, he could always go to WCW. But I don't think he outdoes Bret in the WWF if Shawn is not there to be the top guy and they actually need to lean on him a bit. Without Shawn to buddy up to, he probably finds himself without allies and may not get out of the mid-card there.

God damn, a Bret vs. Rock feud could have been tremendous.

HHH jumping to WCW is even crazier to think about. Think he'd do fine in WWF without Shawn as he did. But if Shawn and HHH are jumping to WCW around 1998 HHH isn't anything like he is now. Hell that might also pull Chyna over and he stays with her. That's a real time twister there.

There was one match in 2001 I believe that occurred between Jericho and The Rock. It was right before the Invasion angle I believe, but my memory is fading. Jericho and The Rock fought each other in a face-vs-face match. It was a great match and as the match progressed, Jericho slowly started to gain the upper hand before heels interfered and ended the match. I feel like if Jericho had gone over clean here, it would have really put him over the top as a legit guy (as opposed to the flukey transitional champion that he became later).
Believe it or not, the fans were a little more in Jericho's corner than they were The Rock's.

Good point about Shawn. I don't doubt that Shawn had back problems, but I also suspect that he didn't want to play second fiddle to Austin. His ego would not have been able to handle it. Going to WCW also wouldn't have been an option because Bret might have legitimately murdered him. I could be wrong here but I highly suspect that this may have been the case.

I would have put Luke Harper over AJ Styles due to interference from Shane. Then Orton does his "I changed my mind lol" bit. Make Orton vs. Wyatt vs Harper (the WYATT FAMILY EXPLODES!) the Smackdown Title Match and you still get your nonsensical Shane vs AJ match.

Bonjour. Another thought was you have DDP come so close to beating Goldberg at Havoc and coming short like he did. Only, he goes on to win WW3 battle royal and he finally beats Goldberg and wins the World Title at Starrcade 98. If they didn’t hotshot the belt onto Goldberg in July 98, they could have done so much more. Hogan crowns DDP as World Champ at Bash at the Beach and keep building Goldberg up to where you do DDP/Goldberg at Starrcade and it’s a Hogan/Warrior babyface vibe to it.

Wendi Richter retaining over "Spider Lady" Moolah in the Original Screwjob. (Let's say for arguments sake that she stops demanding more pay and actually signs on the dotted line of a contract offer somewhere between what she and Vince want, allowing her to stay on with the company. The match still happens, just without Moolah in a more obvious disguise than "Mr. America".) Richter becomes a megastar and ignites a real women's evolution some 30 years before reality, and the Golden Age of the WWF women's division begins.

Anyone mention Booker T over HHH at Mania 19? Feel like that was a huge blunder as WWE didn't really have a super over babyface on Raw for fans to get behind
Booker was perfect. He was over, great music/entrance, good in the ring and on the mic, and there was clearly an opening.

Thinking about DDP beating Goldberg. Hmm. I'm not a big DDP fan, and he shat the bed as a main eventer. But going back to 1998 and having him be the one to beat Goldberg is...interesting. He certainly was over, and if he proved he could beat Goldberg if he got that Diamond Cutter out of nowhere, it could have created an interesting dynamic between the two.

My gut tells me that even thinking about beating Goldberg in 1998 is stupid. But man, maybe that's just because my mind is too focused on what actually did and didn't happen? If DDP had beat Goldberg, maybe it would have been the biggest talking point at my school and DDP would be one of the hugest deals ever? Who knows?

Still, I think WCW was too fucked to escape its fate.

Taker-Lesnar at Mania 30.

Not only was the match itself not good due to Taker getting hurt, WWE's handling of the streak killing rub was pretty terrible and capped off with Taker being the first guy to beat Lesnar clean. Cena and Rollins beat Lesnar beforehand but those were via DQ and Reigns getting pinned.

Taker beating Lesnar wouldn't have been ideal either since Lesnar was still in the midst of rebuilding his beast aura damaged by the Triple H feud the year before. Taker keeping his Mania streak intact would be the most important thing though.

WWE would have been better off not having that match at all and save Taker's streak till the Reigns match a few years later.

Pretty well summed up in parentheses. Richter kept demanding more and more money from Vince and wouldn't sign a new contract unless she got it. Therefore, as her contract was expiring and she was women's champion, he had Moolah dress up in a ridiculous Spider outfit with a mask in a match with Richter for the title. Richter was pinned; however despite clearly kicking out the ref continued and counted 3, and Moolah was declared the new women's champion.
