8. Sting And (x) vs. The Undertaker And Triple H Should've Happened At Wrestlemania
All things being equal, The Undertaker wrestling Bray Wyatt at WrestleMania 31 was a loss for WWE. It effectively killed all momentum for one of their best up-and-coming heels, and given that Undertaker was to be called back to work a long-term program with Brock Lesnar anyway, it was generally a waste of time. As well, Sting versus Triple H at WrestleMania was just a backdrop for a segment to work Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, The New Age Outlaws and X-Pac into the show, and though lots of fun, it was largely unnecessary. However, imagine if for one night only, Triple H got The Undertaker to help him defend the legacy of WWE versus Sting and insert a WCW legend (maybe Ric Flair, maybe Goldberg, etc.) in what would've been a massive dream match. Instead, we got Undertaker having an illogical one off match, and Sting being involved in a feud that felt ineffectual throughout. This could've easily been avoided.
