HBK & Smackdown

By Scott Keith on 21 August 2019


If HBK would have agreed to go to Smackdown in 2004, what impact would it have had on JBL and Cena? HBK winning the belt from Eddie could have gave JBL more time to flesh out his new character. I would loved to have seen a heel HBK vs. Cena at WM 21.

That would have been an interesting twist, actually. Shawn fails at Wrestlemania and decides to get a fresh start on the other show. Of course, in real life he had no interest in being World champion again, but I really like that solution and it would have spared us a year of JBL.
