5 feuds WWE teased but didn't go ahead with

#3 Shane McMahon vs Brock Lesnar

This faceoff took place just minutes after Brock Lesnar annihilated Randy Orton. In what was supposed to be a match for the ages, Lesnar busted Orton's head open and wouldn't stop mauling him. After Orton had lost a considerable amount of blood, and Lesnar refused to let go, Shane McMahon ran down the ramp to save his SmackDown Superstar.

The Commissioner of SmackDown Live came face to face with The Beast Incarnate and tried to reason with him. But Lesnar wouldn't budge and attacked McMahon. He laid McMahon down with an F5 and left the ring after Paul Heyman pleaded him to.

Lesnar was let go with a $500 fine and neither he nor McMahon mentioned of this incident ever again. This match would have been one for the ages with Lesnar's unforgiving attacking arsenal and Shane McMahon's never say die attitude. Their brawls could spill to backstage areas with McMahon taking hellacious bumps as he has before. Audiences around the globe wouldn't be bitter if this feud is revisited.
