10 Fantasy Wrestling Matches That Never Happened

3. New World Order vs. D-Generation X vs. The Four Horsemen - War Games

When you have two rings, one cage, and possibly the most brutal match in the history of wrestling, what better choice for participants than the three most dominant stables in wrestling history? For this match, let's assume it's going to be a 4 vs. 4 vs. 4 match where anything goes and surrender is the only way to win. The New World Order ran roughshod over WCW for years. It was the hottest angle in wrestling in 1996 and turned WCW from an afterthought to the number one promotion in North America. When Scott Hall and Kevin Nash made their debuts on WCW Nitro, you could almost feel the wrestling world shift and now all eyes were on Atlanta, Georgia. They became probably the most dominant heel faction in wrestling history and grew to a tremendous size that eventually led to the death of the company. However, for this match, you'd have Hulk Hogan, Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and the Giant. If the New World Order were the reason WCW started to win the Monday Night War, then D-Generation X was one of the main catalysts of the WWF Attitude Era. Pushing the envelope before that was cool, the original pairing of Shawn Michaels and Triple H pushed the bounds of good taste and became huge stars because of it. After Shawn's back injury, the group morphed into one of the hottest acts in wrestling's hottest period, winning countless titles and selling more merchandise than anyone imagined. DX shirts still fly off the shelf and a recent reunion was successful as well. For the War Games match, DX would send out Triple H, X-Pac, and the New Age Outlaws. When you think of stables in professional wrestling, if you don't think of the Four Horsemen then you need to stop watching wrestling. The Horsemen defined what a heel stable should be and ruled Jim Crockett Promotions for years in many different incarnations. With Ric Flair as the crown jewel, the Andersons as the dominant tag team, and Tully Blanchard as the US champion, the Four Horsemen were the studs of professional wrestling. They engaged in legendary rivalries with Sting, Lex Luger, the Hollywood Blondes, and the New World Order. To this day, the Four Horsemen are over with fans and still have a place in history. For the match, the Horsemen would send out their original incarnation of Ric Flair, Arn and Ole Anderson, and Tully Blanchard. Always a bloody and brutal affair, a three-way War Games match between the three factions would set the standard for War Games. The amount of storylines that could be told in this match would be endless and some of the greatest workers in wrestling history would be inside the ring at the same time. You could do Hulk Hogan vs. Ric Flair, Triple H vs. Scott Hall, and the Andersons vs. the New Age Outlaws. The match would need at least 60 minutes and would deserve every single second of it.
