I still think 'What if Kurt Angle had stuck with ECW even after the crucifix angle Sandman and Raven did.' would be interesting...
Here's some more... EAT EM'.
What if Triple H beat Ultimate Warrior at Wrestlemania 12?
What if Marty Jennetty had kept himself clean?
What if the NWO disbanded after Starrcade 97?
What if Raven retained at Barely Legal?
What if DDP beat Undertaker in the stalker feud?
and of course...
What if Kennedy kept his money in the bank briefcase?

Seeing your "What if Hogan, Hall, and Nash were WWF plants to kill WCW" idea on your list gave me an idea: that might be a good one for a series of short fics along the lines of your comedy short series. It could be a series devoted to wrestling's wildest conspiracy theories and urban legends. What if the nWo were WWF moles? What if the Montreal Screwjob was a work? What if the Ultimate Warrior really had died and been secretly replaced? Things like that. That would be awesome.

What if Chris Benoit would have retired after his neck was broken? What if Hogan retired against Earthquake? or What if ECW lived?

How about, is Steve Austin had won the strap at IYH: Final Four?
Supposedly, he was booked to win but injured his knee early in the match, and Bret was booked to win on the fly.

There's actually a lot of conflicting stories about that. There's one that says Vader was supposed to win until he got busted open, which was a HUGE no-no back then. So, Bret won the belt instead.

Hmmm...how about if Rocky Maivia doesn't injure his knee in 1997 and forefeit the IC title? (I just loved the WWF in that 96-97 time period. I can't help it.)

I just thought of a Really good one: What if Goldberg didnt end Bret's career?
Here's some other ones: What if the Vince Dying angle went through What if James Mitchel wasnt Abyss's father What if the Shockmaster didnt fall down (Possibly an April Fools edition) What if Big Show didnt injure RD What if Eric Bichoff wasnt the Suprise GM of Raw

So is there a time table for the return of Rewriting the Book? I don't want to rush but I am a huge fan of it and it is probably my favorite article on the Wrestlecrap site.

I was having some writer's block issues over the past few months. Recently, however, I took a vacation, and I was able to come up with an idea I think will be absolutely awesome. No time-table yet ... working out the fine details of the outline. Wish I could be more specific.

What kind of attitude is that? Hell, I'll make it easy for ya, Jed. Have Samoa Joe win a 3v1 WHC defense against Angle, Booker, and Sting. Have the MCMG win the Tag Titles. This reign ends......never. Have Kazarian go back to being Kazarian, and win the X-Division Title. There, I just saved you 2 weeks worth of work.

Cool I am a fan of the more traditional Rewriting The Books over the arm chair booker editions myself actually.

So, I'm writing the new edition, and I need something, and I can't find it. So I'm putting it on you guys to bring the help.
I'm looking for a site that has detailed recaps of Monday Night Raws from 1997. It doesn't have to be CRZ-levels of detail (old school IWC people will get that) ... but I need more then "Flash Funk d. Salvatore Sincere". Your help, and your haste, is appreciated; the sooner you get this to me, the sooner I can resume writing.
Kindly to email linkage to me at jed316@msn.com. Many thanks.
Jed f'n Shaffer ~I guess cynical isn't the right word ... burnt-out. Not caring.

Well Jed, at least you've done one Armchair, and thus people will shut up about it. And I don't blame you for being too depressed about TNA to try them. But will ROH be coming any time in the near future?

Well, it's not exactly tasteful, but also He Who Must Not Be Named didn't exactly come back and shake things up alot in 02. If he came back and won the World Title first night back or something you'd have a launch point, but just turning heel isn't exactly a major event...

Mathew Bloody Sforcina ~Eagerly awaits what he can only assume is an idea with Heel Jim Ross. The edition isn't canned. Just on the shelf. I'll get back to it someday. I prefer doing traditional RT stories, and this one is as old school as it gets. Some of my oldest readers will understand when it's all published. Jed f'n Shaffer ~No, there will be no Heel Jim Ross. Although the idea of Heel Jim Ross running his BBQ restaurants could be an April Fools idea ...

I think it might have been mentioned before but What If Shawn Michaels missed the casket at Royal Rumble 98?
I think this would've affected Mick Foley's career, at least in the short term because I bet Triple H would have still told Shawn he dropped the ball, and then tossed him out of DX so Shawn would be the guy Vince was using to try to get the belt off Austin.
