So what’s you guys fav dream match scenarios which never ended up happening... there were many dream matches that did actually happen but also way too many that never took place...
You can choose as many as you want, I’ll do a top 10 now & maybe 10 honourable mentions later on in the thread...
Austin/Hogan Austin/Lesnar Austin/Goldberg Austin/Cena Austin/Orton Austin/Punk Rock/HBK HBK/Eddie Hogan/Cena Taker/Sting

Going based on one’s we could have had, Angle/Bryan is very high on the list. Austin/Hogan is an obvious one. Would have loved to see Michaels/Eddie too.

So many dream matches were caused by the Brand Split.

Rock vs HBK
Would have been an instant classic
Honorable mentions would be Kurt vs Hitman, Omega vs Kurt, and prime Hardy’s vs prime Young Bucks.

Rock/HBK
Taker/Sting
Kurt Angle/D-Bryan
Bryan/HBK
AJ/HBK
A Lot we got years to late like
BOD Vs. DX in 2018? Could of got away with it in 2010.
Taker/Goldberg. Could of happened and been good anytime before 2010. Mainly 2006 Timeline imo.

Cocaine HBK would have won that one. He didn't lie down for noooooboooodddyyyyy!!
Jesus HBK refused to be champion it seemed at times, so he'd lie down for anyone as long as he got a pay check.

Sting/Undertaker - I think the story, promos and build-up would be 10x better than the match.
Austin/Goldberg - I think the match itself would be hot garbage and would have to be a slugfest. The layout spears and stunners to close the episodes of RAW/Smackdown leading up to their eventual PPV match would be great and anybody on the roster who got in-between them would surely regret it. It would be a "full locker room needed to separate two guys" kind of feud for sure but I don't think there's any longevity there beyond one or two marquee matches.
Austin/Orton or Rock/Orton - I'm a huge mark for the Legend Killer gimmick (what can I say, it was the perfect gimmick for the perfect guy) and there's only two relevant names missing from his list of defeated Legends that were still alive, able to perform and viable options to choose from. It just so happens that those two names are also arguably two of the biggest in wrestling history, Stone Cold and The Rock. More points for Austin/Orton as their finishers and styles would have clashed well imo.
Mysterio/Styles - I really think this would be a great match anywhere between 2006-2009 as both were near their primes.
Andre/Big Show - Just for the pure spectacle.
Andre/Lesnar - Same as above but different styles and it would be a moment of the lifetime to see Andre take an F5.
Angle/Hart - A 5 star classic guaranteed
Benoit/Bryan - An instant classic and of course their similarities would be showcased but also we'd see that Benoit had 100x the intensity that Bryan has.
Cena/Hogan - Sure we've seen Rock/Hogan and Rock/Cena but this would truly be a battle between the ultimate babyfaces. Eat your vitamins and say your prayers meets hustle, loyalty, respect and never give up.

#1 is Flair vs Hogan @wm.
Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle Ken Shamrock vs Kurt Angle Taz vs Shamrock HBK vs Eddie Ut vs Cena @wm when the streak was live & Cena was a legit threat to it. My god I can only imagine the drama.
I think Austin vs Hogan or Goldberg never interested me because I genuinely don't think they'd have been any good....I can't imagine them gelling.
