So we all know the biggest pops of all time but what are some pops that would have been absolutely enormous if they had happened.
I'm not talking about things that were super unrealistic like Sting coming out on Raw in 1998 but things that companies had the opportunity to do and passed on. Or even matches that with a different result would have gotten huge pops.
Off the top of my head I'm just thinking about Hogan getting the win at Wrestlemania 18 but I'm sure there are better ones. I'm looking for something that would've been on par with that Stone Cold pop the night Mankind won the title.

Christian returning this past Royal Rumble could have been one I think.

An old-school one but an on-camera reconciliation between Hogan and Andre after Wrestlemania 6 would have been huge.

William "The Refrigerator" Perry winning the Wrestlemania 2 Battle Royal would cause the Chicago crowd to go in a frenzy(in a good way).

A lot of things from the pandemic era. I think for me most specifically for this one would be Vanguard 1 at Dailey's Place |

Sandow winning the battle royal at Wrestlemania 31, I mean it would've been an Austin pop or anything but it would've been a boost for him.

TNA are still absolute fools for not putting the title on Monty Brown when their main event scene was like pure WCW overload at the time.

Imagine if Bret actually did show up during Shawn’s Montreal promo on Raw in 2005. Just imagine.

It would have been interesting to hear the pop Brodie Lee would have received if he made his AEW debut in Rochester as was originally planned.

If Aidan English was the only one to object to the Lana/Lashley wedding. Him clearing his throat when asked if anyone objected would have whipped the crowd up enough to make Rusev's eventual interference that much bigger.
