Paid Members DCW Posted May 12, 2021 Paid Members Posted May 12, 2021 Vince faking his death was never really executed beyond the limo explosion. Wonder where that would have ended up going if the Benoit craic hadn't occurred.

Wonder where that would have ended up going if the Benoit craic hadn't occurred. Apparently the whole thing was designed to establish Mr Kennedy as a Main Eventer. Triple H and Stephanie would've feuded with Kennedy, Vince's bastard son, for control of the company ending in a Wrestlemania main event that Kennedy would've won, with help from a returning Vince. Crazy that it ended up being a comedy feud starring Hornswoggle with the pay off being Finlay vs JBL.

Hide contents Evil Shawn Michaels ...caught me by surprise this week, that can't have been a real idea, surely! ? It wasn't an idea, it was Sullivan trying to be too clever and "explaining" why the Hummer wreck was a work. It wasn't.

JBL in that potato fest 10 minute opening match is an infinitely better payoff than the interminable Triple H Vs. Kennedy main event we would have gotten.
RancidPunx Posted May 12, 2021 Posted May 12, 2021 Al Snow to get a Crow gimmick in late 1995 WWF. Would surely have taken the shine off Sting’s version a year later.

From Prichard’s podcast ; “He had pitched it to everybody around Vince McMahon except Vince McMahon so Vince knew what Goldust was going to pitch him and he had already heard it. He had heard it from me; he had heard it from Vince Russo; he had heard it from Jim Ross. There was no way in hell that Vince McMahon was going to allow him to do this,” Prichard said. “He didn’t want him to do it. We had jumped the shark so many times on this gimmick that this was something that wasn’t going to happen. Dustin Rhodes felt that this is the only thing that can revive his career. He really wanted to get the breast implants. Get Double D’s and stuff, but thank God Vince McMahon talked him out of it.”

I seriously doubt he'd actually do it.
Mr Lawrence Posted May 14, 2021 Posted May 14, 2021 Didn't someone on here claim to have once smoke cigar with Dustin?
