Maybe had Owen not passed, he would've been the Higher Power? He wanted to put Austin out for good and get revenge on Vince for screwing his family. He does it by getting control over one of the most loyal figures Vince has. Owen being the higher power while being the Blue Blazer would be way too much of a mood whiplash in a short amount of time. I wouldn't have put it past Russo if he had done a major swerve like that.

Owen was going to deliver a pipe bomb promo that was actually the exact same one CM Punk did.

I thought I heard Triple H himself say that "The Game" nickname was originally intended for Owen. I can't remember where I heard that though. You are correct. It slips my mind from where, but there's even a clip of him saying as much. no, there's not. there is no source for this rumor whatsoever.

Owen was never going to be "The Game". This is just a stupid internet rumor that won't die. "The Game" nickname came from a spur of the moment Triple H promo.

He does it by getting control over one of the most loyal figures Vince has. Probably not. Austin wasn't too keen on working with Owen after the tombstone at SummerSlam. Whatever Owen's reasons, people in the know seem to feel extreme embarrassment, Owen never apologized after and Austin didn't feel safe in the ring with him. He mentions, I think in his book, that he thought Owen doing the tombstone that way was a rib and he'd do it like Taker.

Owen was supposed to be the guy that ran over Austin.
