Obviously there's Daniel Bryan and his many exploits.
Guardians of the Galaxy is another surprising one.
Though, I really confused about why they suddenly just washed their hands of Stacy Keibler while she was getting super popular during the Dancing with the Stars stuff. Before AJ/Kelly/Bellas, I think Stacy was the company's favorite Divas regardless of wrestling ability (Some say it was Torrie Wilson, but I'm pretty sure Vince loved them legs).

Probably because they knew she would be leaving and I think I remember her giving some not-so-positive interviews during that time |

Ummmm I feel like there was something, maybe Punk, did a few years ago that they didn't mention once.Maybe it was Foley though. I can't remember. But, whatever it was, it was big and WWE didn't make a peep about it and the person in question was pissed.

Edge as WWE Champion with Lita after his first cash-in. Sure, his work was great with Foley/Funk/Dreamer, but he was really onto something, but WWE itself wasn't ready for him to have it yet.

The WWE app. You'd think they'd have at least mentioned it on once or twice.

Daniel Bryan and his stopping the robber was actually used on Total Divas, which led to Brie calling it Bob Wire

I know Ricardo was pretty insulted that WWE never really mentioned when he was pushed off of the ladder onto the table on the outside at TLC a few years back. I think a small part of it was because ADR was injured the next night, but yeah.

Not *quite* what's being asked, but a huge missed opportunity in ways: If I am not mistaken, at WM30, they had Hogan, Warrior, Bret, Bruno, Backlund, Flair, Harley Race, Foley, Rock, Undertaker, Austin, HHH, HBK and 3-4 others I'm forgetting, all in the same building at the same time...and there's not a single picture with more than four or five of those guys together.

Jesus Christ, can they at least mention that DX once invaded WCW with a tank? That's like the biggest moment of the Monday Night Wars and they act like it didn't even happen.

Khail's philanthropism towards his home village in India. I think I read about it on here first. Certainly can't remember it being mentioned on TV.

During the years when Khali was being pushed (with feuds with Undertaker, Batista, and John Cena), he was a heel and his real life good deeds didn't really serve WWE's purpose with the character. His real life philanthropy would not have gone with the way they presented Khali. For sure they could have incorporated this into his character when he turned babyface. By this point they didn't have big plans for Khali any more. |

I'm sure I read that somewhere before. |

Not from the same direction, but the Wyatts and The Shield. In different ways though.

The Ice Bucket Challenge. Sure, plenty of guys did it, but on actual WWE TV, there was Seth getting iced by Ambrose and that was pretty much it.

I was disappointed they didn't rehire Chris Masters or Daivari when they did real-life heroic things, both of which would have probably brought the company some publicity. Doesn't help that both guys are good talents, so it's not like if they had to rehire Brakkus or something.

As many mistakes and missed opportunities this company has had, I'm shocked they're still in business.
