Brian Pillman

How long do you think he would have lasted with the WWF/E if he hadnt died, would he ever have been as big as Austin? who would he have fueded with and where would his character have gone?

Tyler Durden

I certainly don't see him having anywhere near the influence of Austin or the career he had. For starters, Pillman was not a pumped up pretty big dude, he was a skinny runt by comparison. He was also banged up far worse than even Austin was by that time (courtesy of Owen's slip) and had trouble walking correctly. I do think he would have made an excellent mid card heel with his awesome promo skills, but I don't know how long his own "attitude" would have kept sweet with Vince and the gang. Plus he would have likely been offered a role back in WCW when Bret went there a few months later. I guess it's hard to tell what would have gone down

I think he would have been stuck in the mid-card status and eventually gotten rid of, ending up in TNA, since they seem to be the ones picking up WWE's firees.

Lynch

I'll say solid upper midcarder, cuz he was very good.

I suppose the loos cannon gimmick would have grown a bit old after a while wouldnt it? Although i do remember him stabbing a planted fan in the face with JR's pen/pencil which amused me greatly
