How would you have booked the final Starrcade?

Pre-Show Stalwart
I've been watching the last few PPVs of WCW on youtube and I was watching Starrcade 2000. I remember ordering this but it didn't feel like Starrcade at all. They went from having Hogan vs. Piper, Hogan vs. Sting, Nash vs. Goldberg, Bret Hart vs. Goldberg to Scott Steiner vs. Sid?? Steiner was good but give him someone else like Goldberg (frist choice), Flair, DDP, Kevin Nash or someone.

First the actual card...

Ladder match Jung Dragons vs. 3 Count
Lance Storm vs. The Cat
Crowbar vs. Terry Funk
KroniK vs. Big Veto & Reno
Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Mike Awesome
Shane Douglas vs. General Rection
Filthy Animals vs. Jeff Jarrett & the Harris Brothers
DDP & Kevin Nash vs. Perfect Event
Lex Luger vs. Goldberg
Sid vs. Scott Steiner

My top matches for Starrcade 2000 would have been...

Goldberg vs. Scott Steiner. Honestly, why wasn't this the main event? They should have dropped that whole beat the former win streak and just gone with the match that would have been great for the PPV. The top face vs. top heel of the company.

Sting vs. Lex Luger. They had been teasing a match for so long between them yet it never happened. I would have had Luger come out and attack Sting in one of his matches against Jeff Jarrett and cost Sting the match setting this match up at Starrcade.

Ric Flair vs. Jeff Jarrett. They never had a really good match. I would have had Jarrett call out Flair (who was basically retired at that point) and kept on calling him out until Flair responded and accepted the challenge. These two could have put on a great match at the time.

DDP vs. Kanyon. Why wasn't this match on the card? They had set it up perfectly during the summer of 2000 yet when they brought DDP back they never mentioned DDP and Kanyon's feud. Give them a hardcore match and it would have been pretty damn good, IMO.

Kevin Nash & The Filthy Animals (Konnan, Billy Kidman, Rey Mysterio) vs. Natural Born Thrillers (Mike Sanders, Chuck Palumbo, Sean O'Haire and Mark Jindrak). The Filthy Animals were always over and Kevin Nash always fit with them too. It would have made sense for Nash to go to them for assistance or for them to come out and save him from a beat down by the Natural Born Thrillers since that was around the time that Nash was feuding with them.

The only match I would have kept would have been 3 Count vs. the Jung Dragons ladder match because that one was pretty cool.

How would you have booked it?
 
Sting and Luger had already happened at a Starrcade, possibly the year prior if I am not mistaken. I'm pretty sure Steiner vs. Goldberg had also been done at various ppvs, details are hazy. I remember Goldberg getting Montreal'd via Vince Russo with a Steiner Recliner using a baseball bat. I can't make any recommendations for what I would have done because I was so disgusted with what was going on in WCW that I thought it was all a big joke. Kronik vs. Harris bros would have been a nice match, not too sure if it had happened.
