Also, CM Punk beats the Rock at Rumble and Chamber. Set up Cena/Rock/Punk at WM and have Cena pin Rock for the belt. I would have let Punk keep the belt also, but have The Undertaker win the Royal Rumble so the Punk/Taker match at WrestleMania 29 matches The Regin against The Streak. I like that a lot. Only problem would be that they would never have let it main event over Cena vs Rock 2, as I think having it main event creates an air of unpredictability because it positions them to set CM Punk up as The Guy. Which you can't do without it main eventing.

Does outcome only involve the winner, or does it involve the actual ending itself? I'll do both (two picks). Stone Cold vs. Rock at WM 17. I didn't watch then, but as crazy as it probably was and how great the show was, I don't think Steve Austin should have ever turned heel. In hindsight, I think it was arguably one of the biggest mistakes WWE ever did that had long-term affects on the product. While they did book WCW/ECW badly in the Invasion, of all people, Austin should have been the WWF's leader. As cool as the Two-Man Power Trip looked, they should have just done HHH vs. Austin for the title for a bit while Rock took time off. Most regard 2001 as the year that ended the Attitude Era, and while change was needed, I think Austin's heel turn avalanched into what nerfed the WWF product in 2002 and onward. In summary, Austin could've won, but not turn heel. Goldberg vs. Kevin Nash at Starrcade 98. This easily led to the event that put WCW down in the end. No way Goldberg shouldn't have won. If anything, maybe DDP or Booker T should've ended Goldberg's streak, but man, even though a Wolfpac Nash title run against Hogan might have made some sense (which they never did in the end anyway), no way should Nash have beaten the top babyface like that. You say that Nash should not have ended the Streak but then go on saying DDP or Booker should have ended it which would have been even more wrong. Nash was much more over than DDP and Booker and they were not the sort of powerhouse to do it. Maybe Sting could have been the one or Steiner. Especially given Booker was nowhere near a main event until 2000.

Bret Hart defeats Yokozuna at WM9. The consequences are him losing the belt to Hogan, or to Luger?

Bret Hart defeats Yokozuna at WM9. The consequences are him losing the belt to Hogan, or to Luger? That depends on Hulk Hogan. If he was willing to lose to Bret Hart then SummerSlam would be Hart vs. Hogan. If not, then Hart loses the title to Lex Luger at King of the Ring and wins it back in a steel cage match at SummerSlam.

Nexus winning at Summerslam 2010, with Bryan as the last eliminated. They take out Cena with a ton of shenanigans but the one guy kicked out of the Nexus fights them to the bitter end, elevating Bryan and Barrett at the same time Cena is the first eliminated. Bryan goes til the end and eliminates Justin Gabriel leaving it him and Barrett, then Miz comes in and hits him in the back of the head with the MITB breifcase and Skull Crushing Finale leading Barrett to win. People question Miz's actions and Nexus stays strong

Not so much a result change, but Regal getting suspended right in the middle of his big "insane gm" push. The rumored title match at Summerslam that year was Triple H vs William Regal if I recall, and I was pretty excited to see Main event Regal.

Triple H over Daniel Bryan at Wrestlemania XXX's first match.
Hey, no one said it had to be a positive change.
Real talk: I'm still a little amazed that they somehow made things right in the end there, even if so many things getting there (Bryan fake joining the Wyatts, Batista winning the Rumble) just seemed wrong. It's almost a weird inverse to Hogan v Sting, where the build up was juuuuust right, and they just about screwed it up with the not-so-fast count that made some think 'wait, Hogan pinned him clean'.
And in the vein of seeing the IWC having a meltdown, I do legitimately wonder how the majority would've taken James Ellsworth winning the WWE title.

Hogan v Sheik
Sheik wins, Hogan goes back to the mid card. Tito Santana the reigning IC champ gets a shot and dethrones the Shiek hearaling the Golden Era of wrestling with his Titomaniacs, teaming with Macho Man to become El Mega Powers. Tito has no interest in romancing Liz so they never break up and become tag champs, IC champ and WWF champ undefeated for 15 years.

Damien Sandow should have beaten Cena in his MITB cash in. Seth Rollins should have beaten Finn Balor for the Uni title.

Hogan goes over Warrior at Wrestlemania VI. Toronto was a Hogan town, WWE had no follow up for Warrior and because they didn't know how to book face vs face matches were already having him act heelish.

Talking as a wrestling fan, Austin doesn't turn heel at Mania 17. I agree with the person earlier (and we're in the minority) who thinks it's the worst decision WWE ever made. I'd go so far as to say they've never recovered. Talking personally, Orton over Triple H at Mania 25. I've never been so angry. I HATED Austin turning and siding with Vince...It felt like they were wiping their ass with my adolescence.

-Tatanka d. Shawn Michaels via pinfall at Wrestlemania 9.
Michaels probably would have won it back anyway, but at least Tatanka would have had a slightly more memorable run. That's one of the title changes that never happened that I always wish was different.
-Tazz wins Hardcore Battle Royal at Wrestlemania 2000 and ends the 24/7 rule
Tazz retiring early would have been inevitable, but at least building him up as a badass Hardcore champion would have given the belt more prestige. Once ECW came along in the Invasion angle, you could use the Hardcore division to kind of continue ECW.
-Legion of Doom win Tag Team Battle Royal on the Heat before Wrestlemania 15
Wrestlemania 15 would have still been bad, but at least Legion of Doom getting the spotlight one more time would have been one of the few highlights, and the tag title match would have been less Russo-riffic. Plus it would mean they won the battle royal two years in a row, which would have been sort of cool I think.

Punk walks out of Summerslam 2011 with the title.
That killed potentially the hottest angle in many years. This is more like a total rebooking but I would have kept the storyline that Punk actually left going. Alberto could have cashed in on Cena, and keep that feud going while Punk continues to claim to be the real champion. Cena wins the title back from Del Rio, and holds it until Mania 28. Punk beats Cena in the main event.
