Another interesting thought, I do like the idea of the whole Sid/Hulk thing with Flair, then having Flair think he won only to turn around and see Piper. I would have been all for Piper winning the rumble, he was one of my favorites at the time. I don't think it would have been good to have Piper win the rumble and the title only to lose it one month later at SNME. I think if they let Piper win the belt then he has to go to Mania as the Champion, with the logical opponent being Flair. They could still do the Hogan/Sid match at WM8 with the same ending (Warrior/Shango), and do the Macho/Jake match as well. That would leave Undertaker without an opponent, they could have him beat any random guy like Warlord. They could also put him against the Texas Tornado if Taker was still a heel. If they were still doing the whole "you can't hold two belts at the same time" thing, then I imagine Roddy would have to forfeit the IC title. To me they could do a tournament to crown a new IC Champion with Bret and Mountie having the finals match at WM8. I know Mountie beat Bret for it but if we are doing an entire tournament for a new champ I think I'd rather see Bret vs Martel perhaps. I think Mountie lost all of his characters momentum after dropping it to Piper so quickly. If Piper were to win the Rumble, I think I would've booked a double dq or some sort with Mountie earlier in the night.

Yeah, I could see Bret and Martel facing off for the IC title, that could have easily lead into the Bret/Shawn/Martel feud/angel in the summer of 1992 which happened anyway.
