Scott, whats up? 2 quickies but discussion generating questions for the doomers…
1) Was listening to a PTB podcast at the gym (edjoyed your edition by the way) and they mentioned that WWE had discussions of hot shotting Cena/Rock to WM 27, and going with that and Miz/Morrison as the top 2 matches? Was this ever REALLY an option? Seems far fetched consdering how planned out Rocks recent run was.
I was literally not even paying attention to current wrestling at that point so I have no idea how true it was, but considering that Rock needed months of lead-time to get ready for Survivor Series, I seriously doubt that was a real option.
2) They also mentioned how WM 20 should have been HHH/Benoit, Rock/HBK, and Foley/Orton. I love this PPV so have no complaints about the card but why didn't Foley/Orton have a 1-1 match? It would have been a great launching pad for Orton, as it was he kinda got overshadowed by everyone else.
I think that's exactly why they didn't do the singles match there — because Flair and Rock were gonna steal the show in MSG and Orton would be a million spots down the card and everyone knew it, so they waited until Orton could get a proper showcase the next month and make the win over Foley mean something.
