So another thread ended up inspiring this one as I was answering it. That other thread was asking if Cena would still be in the same place he is now if Lesnar had stayed in WWE. Well, it honestly would have affected JBL more in my opinion. He got his WWE Championship push in 2004 during a time when Smackdown was in desparate need of a top heel. Lesnar would have filled that spot if he had stuck around. That title reign ended up being the best JBL's career ever got. He never held another world title. That brings me to my discussion question....
Would JBL still have become a world champion if Lesnar had stayed in WWE? Why or why not?
It's hard to say. He might not even have gotten the JBL character either. Cena would eventually have earned his top face status, so it is honestly JBL who would have suffered if Lesnar had left. I would like to think he eventually might have gotten a world title, but the only reason he got one in the first place was because of being in the right place at the right time when they needed him. What do you guys think?
