Fantasy booking: Owen as Mister McMahon’s contender

[Sephiroth]

I had suggested this idea in another thread recently. I wouldn’t trade how things did happen for anything, Stone Cold vs Dude Love and all it lead to was awesome and I enjoyed it to the max. But as far as “what if?” scenarios I’ve seen this is one I don’t remember any talk of, and it strikes me as no less intriguing than what we did get, and also perfectly plausible at that. Between the history between them plus the memories of Montreal , Owen as Mister McMahon’s chosen contender to go against Austin would have almost certainly have been a heat magnet, particularly in Canada. Plus Owen had played the reverse-face card before, including during his original feud with Austin, and I could totally see that gelling with those early days of the Mister McMahon character, with Vince proclaiming Owen as the wholesome champion he wants representing the WWF. Though where it would have lead from there on is harder to envision.

I actually toyed with an ewr diary that would've used this as part of the larger storyline. Might still do it, some day.
