In WWE history some of the most storied events and characters have been reactions of other events. What are some events that if not occuring may have resulted in a different WWE land scape immediatly and in the future.
What I mean is what are some things that did not happen, or did happen that caused something else major to happen, and if they didnt what would it mean for the WWE today. Eg. If Curtain Call didnt happen at the infamous house show in the WWE HHH would have won the 1996 King of the Ring, and there may have never been a 'Stone Cold Steve Austin'.
For those who dont know Curtain Call was in 1996 when the Clique (HBK, HHH, Nash and Hall) all broke Kayfabe at a house show and hugged after a Diesal Michels cage match. As a result HHH was punished as Hall and Nash were leaving and Michels was champ and was immune, and HHH didnt win the King of the Ring he was scedualed to that year. As a reaction Austin won that year and the rest is history.
What are some other moments in WWE history that if not occuring the future landscape would be changed?

Honky Tonk Man refusing to drop the IC title to Randy Savage at The Main Event cost Ted DiBiase the WWE title at Wrestlemania 4. That changed not only who was champion, but the final match of WM 4 and the main event for the following WM.
Hulk Hogan refusing to put over Bret Hart at Summerslam 1993 caused Yokozuna to win the title back at King of the Ring and Lex Luger was turned face and pushed as the new Hogan.
Owen Hart refusing to do an angle where he steals Debra away from Jeff Jarrett. Instead, he would don the Blue Blazer mask again.
The Briscos going behind everyone's back and selling Georgia Championship Wrestling to Vince McMahon thus keeping the World Championship Wrestling television show away from Bill Watts and the Mid-South Championship wrestling killed that territory.

I did not know that. Wow! That's scary.
What if the whole Montreal screwjob hadn't happened? If Bret and WWF parted on good terms we may have seen Hart return to WWF when his WCW contract was up. But we would never have seen the Mr. McMahon character born and thus Stone Cold would not have had that epic fued with him that shot him into the atmosphere in terms of overness.

Whether Bret left on good terms or not, he was still two years away from a stiff Goldberg kick that would keep him from wrestling again. However, I can see Bret doing some non-wrestling stuff such as talking on DVD's and inducting some HOF'ers.
However, while the Screw Job did help the Mr. McMahon character become instantly hated, the Austin/McMahon feud had already begun. Austin stunned McMahon a couple months before Montreal. As long as they had McMahon admit he was the CEO of the WWE, the feud would of worked just as well. The Screw Job just helped it along.

If Eric Bischoff didnt get let go by WCW, WWE may have died and thus causeing WCW, which may mean no TNA Wrestlin....
Bischoff was losing WCW a lot of money. Ratings and buy rates were continually dropping. Bischoff needed to be removed if WCW would have any shot to recover from a terrible 1999. As bad as Russo was, it was Bischoff who caused the hole in the ship of WCW. The only thing Russo did was make that whole bigger.

If Triple H never tore his quad Jericho wouldn't have been pushed to fill the Main Event void and thus would not have been the first Undisputed Champion.

If he was doing so well, he wouldn't have been replaced. The fact is, Bischoff was an one trick pony who got lucky with the nWo but had no idea what to do next. Three years after stumbling upon the nWo and having everyone except for himself mold it into the success it was, he was still hitless. Russo ended up costing WCW a lot more money, but Bischoff was a far cry from being called a success.
And it's not like I made anything up. You can check out the Nitro ratings and PPV buy rates on any site.
