15 Biggest Matches WWE Should've Booked In The 90s (But Didn't)
7. Sid Justice vs. Randy Savage (1992)
As touched upon earlier, WWE often uses a pattern of booking that sees the top heel coming out of WrestleMania battle the top face coming out of WrestleMania, usually the WWE Champion, at the SummerSlam main event that year. In 1992, that pattern would've likely produced a Macho Man vs. Sid Justice main event for SummerSlam had Sid stuck around and not quit the company. Following WrestleMania VIII, Savage and Sid Justice were two of the biggest stars in the company. Savage had just defeated Flair for the WWF Championship, and Sid had just survived a match with Hulk Hogan (losing by DQ). Most other villains left WrestleMania after taking the 1-2-3 from Hogan, but Sid did not and Hogan would be "retiring", leaving Sid to be pushed as the company's top heel. Vince had high hopes for Sid when he was brought in during 1991, but rumors ranging from a failed drug test prior to WrestleMania VIII to creative differences have been cited as the reason he quit on April 26, 1992. A Macho vs. Sid program under the WWE umbrella would never be.
