Good evening Mr. Keith. So I'm going through the RAWs on the network, from the beginning, and something came to mind that kind of ticked me off. Events/angles unfolded that lead to a brighter road that didn't end up happening, but came very close . Two instances:
Janetty & Kid win the tag-titles from the Quebecers, weeks before the Hart Brothers shot at Royal Rumble. They lose them back before the PPV. I know it was to show anything can happen on RAW, but c'mon, That match would have friggin Rocked at the Rumble, Owen still could have turned on Bret, and the Quebecers could have got their rematch at Mania, and we wouldn't have had to sit through Men on a Mission
Savage comes to the aid of someone in Backlunds chicken wing. I think it was just an audience member, but watching I would have loved to have this lead to a match between the two. Both slowly getting crazier and crazier. Savage wouldn't even have to give up or job, just let Backlund snap to get him and the move over.
I'm starting Nitro slowly so i haven't come across anything as of note yet, so what are your biggest instances of a Possible awesome match coming thiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close to happening, but for whatever reason, didn't? And for the sake of the discussion on the blog, Benoit/Punk does not count
MEGAPOWERS V. STING & LUGER!!!!!
OK, I've been beating that drum for a while now, but I feel we need to build a time machine and make it happen at Starrcade 95.
Also, the recently discussed heel Ramon v. Undertaker match at WM11 that was set up with vignettes that never aired probably could have saved that show to a certain degree. Probably would have revived Hall's career too.
I also feel like World champion Shawn defending against the former Kliq members in goodbye blowoffs (heel Kid, heel Ramon) would have been epic and could have carried them through the summer. But then 96 sucked for a lot of reasons anyway.
