Missed Opportunity Dream Matches

By Scott Keith on 22 December 2018

So, in past eras we had VERY obvious dream matches that didn't happen (Austin/Hogan, Austin/Goldberg, Sting/Taker, etc). But in the modern period, is there anything you can predict we'll be bummed we never saw, even if purely for the spectacle (if not match quality)? I can't come up with much. Omega/Punk? Pentagon/Bryan? Even those seem niche and pale in comparison to the previous examples.

Just a further indictment of the lack of true star power and/or secondary company?

You betcha. The big one for the modern era had been Daniel Bryan v. Brock Lesnar hanging from Vince's nose like the booger of Damocles, but now that's been picked. Maybe Brock v. Batista, which we shockingly never got on the main stage?
