Hopes were raised to an unimaginable degree, but nothing came out of this. Austin ended up stunning AJ Styles on two separate occasions that night, and fans didn't get to see him face The Fiend.

Imagine if WWE lets Austin come back to give one of the biggest rubs of all time, to The Fiend! All it would need is for Austin to acknowledge Wyatt's comments, and kick off the feud.

#3 AJ Styles

The Universal title contract signing between Rollins and Strowman was interrupted by The O.C. but it didn't end well for AJ Styles. He fell prey to a thunderous Stunner from The Rattlesnake. Things didn't end here though. Austin lured Styles in after the show and hit another Stunner on him.

The story is there and all it needs is for Austin to get cleared to wrestle one more match. Styles is someone who can get a good match out of almost anyone, and this bout could possibly be the best out of this list, if WWE lets these two men go at it on a major PPV.

Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
