One Superstar To Change Eras

Most of all I'd like to have seen what Bret would have done in the later Attitude Era, Ruthless era etc.

let's put CM Punk of present day into 2002, and have Shamrock stick around until that time period.

CM Punk vs. Ken Shamrock
CM Punk vs. Edge
CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho
CM Punk vs. Chris Benoit
CM Punk vs. Eddie Guerrero
CM Punk vs. Kurt Angle
CM Punk vs. ABA Undertaker
CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio
CM Punk vs. Brock Lesnar

Ken Shamrock vs. Edge
Ken Shamrock vs. Chris Jericho
Ken Shamrock vs. Chris Benoit
Ken Shamrock vs. Eddie Guerrero
Ken Shamrock vs. Kurt Angle
Ken Shamrock vs. ABA Undertaker
Ken Shamrock vs. Rey Mysterio
Ken Shamrock vs. Brock Lesnar

I know we did end up seeing a few of those (Shamrock/'Taker, Punk/Jericho) but it would be even more surreal to see that era's version of a superstar fight Punk or Shamrock.

CM Punk in the attitude era.

Dynamite Kid to WWE 2002-2003

vs. Eddie
vs. Brock
vs. Kurt
vs. Rey
vs. Benoit
vs. Edge
vs. RVD
vs. HBK
vs. Christian
vs. Lance Storm
vs. Regal

Amazing possibilities.

John Cena thrown smack dab in the middle of the Attitude Era. He wouldnt be a 14 time champ, he wouldnt even be a one time champ.


Ryback in the Attitude Era on the other hand, wouldve torn down the house.

I always wondered what would happen if HBK stuck around through 98-01.

Also if Austin never left in 02,Rock never did movies and stuck around for another 10 or so years. god only knows the possibilities.

I could go on about Dynamite Kid forever. The guy was 10-20 years ahead of his time and his body paid the price because of it too.

I wish he would've gotten off the steroids and lived a clean lifestyle so we could have seen more out of him. I believe Bret Hart even states that Dynamite Kid is/was the best worker he's ever seen.

Too bad he's so crazy now too because he could probably contribute a lot to the business in a training capacity.

Yeah he was beyond done by 1997.

Could you imagine some Dynamite Kid vs. Mr. Perfect matches for the IC title in the late 80s-early 90s?

Good Lord. Plus, if he had stayed healthy we could've gotten some matches with Bret Hart, Owen Hart, Davey Boy Smith and Shawn Michaels out of him.

I don't agree with this. Angle would be a main eventer in that Era as well. 

This isn't a very specific answer, but I have always wondered how anyone other than Hogan would have fared with the monster push that McMahon gave him starting in 1984. There is an argument that certain fans make saying that anyone would have done well in Hogan's position. I'm not sure. That may be right, or it may not. My question is, how would the company do? I don't think it would have done as well. There is no question that Vince McMahon made Hulk Hogan, but I think Hogan had a lot to do with building the WWF. I'm not sure that any other wrestler plugged into that position would have done as well.

Kurt Angle in the Golden Era, where matches were 1/2 shoots.

Angle vs. Thesz
Angle vs. Carpantier
Angle vs. Gagne
Angle vs. Rikidozen

Would be pretty amazing to watch!

Otherwise, Big Show in the 70s when Andre was untouchable!
