What would the 2001 Invasion be like if.....

[Lionheart_Y2J_fan.]

What if Shawn Michaels never took a break from wrestling and was part of the Invasion of 2001 and Bret Hart never had to retire and stayed in WCW? What if the nWo and D-Generation X were part of the invasion? Would they feud or merge and the kliq be reincarnated? What if Triple H never got injured? Not trying to debate here but would just like some ideas.

i seriously love what if questions..and i think about this sooooo much..i always think about what if hbk never left bret never had to retire or any of that..well hbk would probably not beas huge as is remembered now..cause when he was on that hiatus people who started watching after he left had only like word of mouth and this was wayyy before youtube so really nothing unless wwe showed a package..so it made him somewhat bigger on hiatus and great when he returned..but if that never happened..i think they could have went soooo far with the invasion angle....all that star power and ego..would have made some memorable matches and high angles.. the kilq reformation, the dx vs nwo army..oh crap perfect!!! i could see that five on five match at survivor series in 2001 being team nwo...nash,hall,possibly hogan,sting,stiener vs team dx, hhh,hbk,road dogg,billy gun,x pac...oh mann can we say high ratings.....and have people rock fued with austin and booker with angle..ohh the endless possiblities...good thread

Well for one HBK would more than likely be dead if he didnt take that break. A true blessing in diguise. I don't think Bret was paid by WCW but by AOL therefore would be like Sting, Goldberg etc sitting on the sidelines rolling in the cash. I believe Scott Hall and Nash were on the same deals, so the what if to this would simply be what if HHH wasn't injured because the rest would still not be available.

In terms of fantasy, the WWF would be lead by DX whilst feuding with WCW. NWO returns and tries to destory both companies, leading to the downfall of WCW before WWF kills the NWO off at Survivor Series.

well i think the nwo and dx would merge together, and they would try and take out everyone. they would suceed at first and then when they start losing then you would see the kliq. You would see sting have a crazy feud with the undertaker. i think austin and rock would still be fighting just to have goldberg come in and run roughshot over them. then vince would get mad and say that the only person that could stop goldberg would be kurt angle. i think bret would just fall into place somwhere putting on a good match with whomever maybe eddie r.i.p

I think having the NWO in the Invasion angle, and Hogan joining WWE would have helped.

There were so many top guys on both sides missing, that it prevented it from working. If Triple H and Goldberg had been there too for example, as well as HBK.
