Would we have seen Nigel vs Bryan main eventing/being a World Championship feud if Nigel passed his health test a few years back?
Yes, the Nigel situation has been discussed a lot on here since it happened 3 years(ish) back, but I am just wondering if this match had the would have been a main event feud in this company in the same vein as Bryan vs Punk. Would it have main evented PPVs/Raw/been for a World Title to parralel their ROH feud? Would Bryan still have risen as high as he did if Nigel successfully into the WWE? Would they have been kept away from eachother, longer than Bryan/Punk were? Would Nigel have been able to adapt his edgy character successfully to WWE, or would it have left him in the midcard unable to get a feud with his ROH friend?
Same question: Nigel vs Punk, Nigel vs Cena. Not as historically significant as vs Bryan above but I am still interested if these matches would have taken place.

No one knows how McGinuess would have done in WWE, but he rose to the top of TNA incredibly quickly. While TNA is a lot more analogous to the indy style, the man rose to the upper card of a national promotion in his first month. Nigel not being able to reach WWE due to his arm is one of the biggest regrets I have as a fan, he was ready, brother.

There are times where I think he would've been in Barrett's role during the Nexus days.
Though. I dunno. He was in pretty rough shape.

I was seriously just thinking about this last night. My outcome is that Nigel would currently be in Orton's role as the "corporate, best for business" champion, similar to The Rock's corporate championship reign.
