I don't see Test getting a world title run being an option at all. Even in 1999. Like I said, I do agree more should've been done in regard to a feud with Triple H after the wedding debacle but a world title run? Test? No way, man. Even if it was a short run...there's no way it would've been short enough. While I think Test shouldn't have been in the title picture over a certain ass-man, there's no denying his talent and popularity in 99. I mean...I guess. I was a Test fan in 99-00 myself but still not seeing how he should've had a world title run.

People say about how bad Arquette was, but Vince was just as bad IMO. Should have been Billy, but Test would have been alright too.

Best things Test ever did in his career were Stacy Keibler and Kelly Kelly.

Both Test and Steiner were on so much "juice" at one point that I'm surprised Stacy didn't start looking like Chyna just from the bodily contact alone.

That's put some rather bizarre images into my head that I want to unsee.

Didn't you hear? Scott Steiner is the greatest tag team of all time. He can tag team Stacy all by himself.

Interesting fact, Show wining the title at SS99 came only a month or so after Russo and Ferrara jumped to WCW. How is that interesting if you don't mind me asking?

People say about how bad Arquette was, but Vince was just as bad IMO. Should have been Billy, but Test would have been alright too. Billy should have never been Champion, and the only time I could ever see and accept him being in the Championship picture was during the 'One' Billy Gunn stint. Billy could have never been THE guy, sure he was a good in-ring guy, and he had good charisma with DX, BUT he just didn't have what it took to get over on his own without Dogg. The same goes for Jesse and X-Pac too; they tried but just could never get other as much as they did with DX on their own or as part of another team. None of the lowercard guys in DX ever could have sustained in the Main Event picture, least with Test he was KINDA over and the fans were into the feud, but instead the Test/Steph stuff kinda just fizzled out and became all about McMahon and Trips. I would have liked to have seen Test get his hands on Trips atleast once in a hellacious match, they did have a short one on one on one of the SD!'s, but forgettable and could have been taken further I think.

Don't want to get in an argument about whether he was deserving or not, but he WAS over.

Don't want to get in an argument about whether he was deserving or not, but he WAS over. No argument at all man; nothing wrong with a discussion though Oh I will admit he was over, like I said, as The One he was damn over, but just couldn't have hit the big time I dont think. Maybe if the original plans of him being the guy that rundown Austin, maybe that could have given him a fighting chance, totally if he didn't get injured in early 2000 - they probably could have used another heel for Rock to feud with in the Summer. Billy was easily the best midcarder in DX though, and easily was the one that most likely COULD be the man, but even then he just wouldn't have been able to hang with who they had in late 00

Do you really think, show would have won the title if Russo and Ferrara were still in charge if writing for TV. Hell, it's a known fact that Russo's final written show was in raw October 99 with Rock vs Y2J in the main event. Russo had it the newly debuted Jericho go over the hugely over Rock. After Russo left for WcW they changed it to rock going over. Show would not have had that lousy run, had there not been a major change in the writing team just a few prior. Get it ?

I did just read that by Russo. Jericho would have been huge at that time period, instead of a short feud with Shamrock and a useless one with Chyna. Big Show was nowhere near ready for a reign at the top, but I don't know if Russo would have vetoed it.
