Mustafa Ali was undoubtedly one of the breakout stars of the past eighteen months.

With a string of impressive performances and victories under his belt, it was apparently planned for the Chicago native to wrestle Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania for the WWE title that year, before an unfortunate injury saw Kofi Kingston take his spot.

Cody Rhodes' uncle is a WWE Hall of Famer. More details HERE.

Kingston would go on to win the title, which must have hurt Ali on some level. But, his flexible, high-flying style could be the perfect gel for a returning Edge, who has sung Ali's praises on more than one occassion.

Edge would be going in with the size advantage, but let's be honest: In WWE, when did that ever matter? It would be a fast-paced, balls-to-the-wall clash with superkicks and spears galore. What's not to love?

Besides, having missed out on a spot in the Royal Rumble, leaving most fans bemused as to why such a talent would be dismissed completely, a dream match with one of his idols could be the perfect confidence and profile booster.

Here's hoping this one happens sooner rather than later.
