Well one thing is Vince signed the Big Show to a ten year deal out the gate

And the plan was to build to Austin vs Big Show at Wrestlemania 2000 which Vince thought would set buyrate records

The main event for Wrestlemania 15 was going to be Mankind as champ vs Rock vs Austin but Shawn step in and convinced vince that the main event for mania should always be on and one

So foley drop to belt to rock like two weeks before

Somehow Shawn didn't feel the same when it was him in The main event triple threat at XX

Vince wanted Owen vs Shawn at royal rumble 98 but shawn talked him out of it some felt he was scared Owen would shoot on him

The Game gimmick was set for Owen Hart first

Shawn was suppose to lose to Bret at Wrestlemania 13 but he lost his smile

The plan was for Bret to catch the super kick and break his ankle with sound affects under the ring to boot and than he would pass out in the sharpshooter ala austin

But shawn heard that and headed for the hills


Shawn was suppose to lose to Vader at summerslam but than cried until he got it changed

Terry Taylor thing isn't true.
Thought Bruce Pritchard talked about that being true in his shoot interview :manny:

Also from Bruce Kayfabe interview on the screwjob, the WWE thought they were gonna resign hogan at the end of 97, but at the last minute he resigned with WCW. He was gonna be doing a program with HBK, basically replacing Bret.

Michael Cole is not even Michael Cole's real name.

UFC's Mike Goldberg was offered the lead announcer job on RAW back in 2005.
I know it's not his real name. Cole started out doing backstage interviews.

Don't forget about Shawn getting his ass kicked by a group of Marines and being forced to drop his Intercontinental Title.

Vince tore his quads


I was there, 2005 Royal Rumble in Fresno. Still salty the live camera close up shot I had next to Vince as he looked back to the ring on his way back to the back never made it to the home video. :stopitslime: I was two seats from the side of the entrance ramp.

Great show though outside of the Batista/Cena RR draw.
