From a Terri Runnels interview:

The way that angle would have finished, Dustin and I would have had the renewal of our vows. I had a wedding dress that my designer had made for me. We were going to be in the ring. The preacher doing a renewal of our vows. At the time he would say, is there anyone here who has reason that these two people should not be married, let them speak now or forever hold their peace. And that would have been…Brian was going to come down and say, you know, me. I was going to actually, there was gonna be juice and lots of blood. I was gonna throw myself on top of Brian and say, Dustin, during those 30 days, I fell in love with Brian. I can't help myself, so, you know, I have to leave you and Dakota and go with Brian. The visual of that, I thought, would have been so amazing with this wedding dress, all the color all over it. And me leaving my husband and child to be with Brian.

Not bad, kinda predictable, but cool.

The imagery of it sure woulda been unique.

[Stab Sword]

Sounds like a very cool conclusion but I doubt it would end there.

It feels like she missed a step -- why would there be all that blood all of a sudden?

That time of the month???

I though Dakota was his daughter in Kayfaybe? You know,

"She's mine Dustin, she's my love child!"

[Crappler El 0 M]

She's told that story before. I wish we could have seen what her golden wedding dress was supposed to look like. They made it especially for that segment, but obviously they never got a chance to do it. I believe Terri said she still has the dress.

I always thought Dustin/Goldust turned into a big sappy dweeb once they revealed that he and Terri were married. It was like he became "Loving Family Man" Dustin Runnels, except he still had the Goldust get-up for some reason.

I would have enjoyed the "Pillman steals Dustin's wife" angle the same way I enjoyed the "Venis steals Dustin's wife" angle. Suffer, Dustin, suffer!

Presumably, once Pillman came down to object, he and Dustin would've beaten the out of each other.

[Andrew is Good]

At the time, I wouldn't have expected it. But also, the concept of leaving your entire family for a twisted lunatic like Pillman would have definitely been something to see.

[horsemen4ever]

I liked the way it actully happened better, with Dustin leaving Terri and becoming the AFKAG. There would be no baby new year.

[Professor Chaos]

This would've ruled. Death sucks.

[Cactus Jack]

That would have been awesome.

What is it with Russo and blood baths?

[Splinter]

Wasn't that a time when the USA network wanted family friendly shows with NO blood? You know when business was so bad Vince couldn't afford to pay Bret any more
