how would a megamaniacs tag title reign have went?

[calmlikeabomb420]

assuming they won at wm9

[johnnytightlips]

Probably would have lost it right away in a rematch with Money Inc. with Brother Bruti taking the pin.

Yea, not very long. Now had the MegaPOWERS won, they'd still be champs today

[johnnyk9]

Considering the WWE tag divison at the time it's hard to say the only heel teams they have at that point are Money Inc., Beverly Brothers, and The Headshrinkers. The Qubecers, Well Done, and The Heavenly Bodies are set to debute in the Summer. I'd have to agree with Money Inc. retaining them on a dusty finish, but who knows.

A Tag Title run would have been bad unless it was very short. Hogan was a terrible tag team wrestler.

[Futureraven: Beelzebruv]

To be honest, I can't see Hogan working tag matches very long, I've said a few times that I think it was the wrong choice to put the belt on him at Wrestlemania, but if you have Hogan in 1993, he has to be in the main event, he'd just overshadow all the other teams and his own partner too much.

Yes indeed. I always thought they should have won the straps on, say, Saturday Night's Main Event from the Hart Foundation (made perfect sense - watch the angle where the Mega Powers formed) - and I would have had Savage score the pin - and then drop them either because (a) back then, you couldn't kayfabe have two titles, or (b) HTM and Jimmy Hart interfere to smash a guitar over Savage's head so the Foundation can capitalize.

A Hogan/Beefcake championship duo would have been fine for a short run, I think.

They drop back to Money Inc at King Of The Ring 1993. Which is Hogan and Beefcakes last PPV appearance before WCW (was Beefcake still around at King Of The Ring?). That would mean that Yokozunna went home with the belt at WM 9 after Fuji through salt in Hitmans eyes. Yokozunna defeats 'American hero Jim Duggan (who was easily replaceable in the tournament) at King Of The Ring and 'Luger goes over Yokozunna for the belt at Summerslam 1993 and Hitman beats a heel Luger at WM 10 after Luger 'turns his back on America' at the main event at Survivor Series 1993. Stating that he had lost interest in what the fans want and Americas interests and was again back at The Narcissist.

I probably would have enjoyed it somewhat. Though it would be very out of place for them to feud with anyone else other than Money Inc since one was a Main Event caliber guy in Dibiase and a solid midcard guy with IRS. But it would be weird if they feuded with The Beverly Brothers or Headshrinkers.

Yoko vs Duggan may top Mabel/Diesel as Worst WWF Title Match ever on a PPV

It would not be billed as a big match (the Yoko VS Hogan match wasn;t and it was return from Mania). King Of The Ring was about the tournament and Hart winning not who was in the championship match. Simply make the championship match a bonus of the night and not billed up as a big match. 'American Hero' Jim Duggan VS Yokozunna 'the evil forginner'. Diesel VS Mabel outside of the match was so bad because of the push Mabel got at the time how bad Diesel was in the ring and how he couldn;t carry anyone (unlike Bret Hart who many fans at that time felt should have been champion) and it was the main event of the second biggest PPV of all time. WM 11 had one of (voted by PWI as the best) match of 1995. HBK/Diesel. King Of The Ring as previously stated was/is a tournament where the emphasis is on the tournament not a main PPV where the main event and emphasis is on the main event and title match (s). Yoko VS Duggan may be an awful match but it would have been quickly forgotten about.

Hogan and Beefcake could have won the tag titles at WMIX, then Bret could have successfully defended the title that same night against Yokozuna. Then have Yoko and another heel- since Crush was not at that stage yet- fued with Hogan and Beefcake, and transition into the Bret/Luger fued that never really got a chance to get going.

Only problem with this was Hart won King Of The Ring that night which IMO was his finest moment and made it one of the best PPVs in WWF history also he (joint) won Royal Rumble in 1994 which gave him a much needed build up and push before winning the tile back in 1994 (WM 10). I for one was not buying Hart as WWF champions o soon into his singles run and feel that a lot of other fans were not either Hart needed a bigger push (which the rest of 93 and up till WM 10) gave him before he could be a credible champion. I wouldn;t change King Of The Ring and I would still make Yokozunna the champion (not Hogan) coming out of WM 9.
