3. Something Bizarre This Way Comes
If Dustin Goldust Runnels is serious about returning to active in-ring competition soon, then I cant think of anyone Id like him to work with more than Tyler Breeze. Goldust is a legend that can still go like a fiend in the ring, and is enough of a hoss to pretty much ragdoll Breeze if he wants to. Added to that, the pair of them are fantastic storytellers. In this case, the story writes itself: both men are pretty much opposite ends of the showbiz character spectrum. Goldie is exactly the kind of person that Breeze would find personally offensive (the ultimate uggo), while Goldust would, in turn, find it hilarious getting under the uptight Breezes skin. Id have the feud kick off with one of those typically WWE backstage interactions maybe Goldust borrows Breezes phone and takes a dozen or so selfies of his own, and Breeze takes offence. Whatever: its basically an excuse for the two to interact, and for sparks to fly. We get them thrown together in a match, and Goldust is so over-the-top and in Breezus face that he flips out and is disqualified for taking a foreign object to his opponents face. That leads us on to a round two, and onwards. Because Im determined to get it in, Im voting for a screwjob finish to the feud - Stardust and the Cosmic Ascension rush the ring to take out Breeze when it looks like hes about to win, deliberately forcing a disqualification and the win for Breeze. They then turn on Goldust for the beatdown, which Breeze interrupts when he supermodel kicks the Ascension out of the ring, leaving a shocked Stardust facing a furious Goldust on his own. A swift beatdown later, Stardust and his goons bail, leaving the Gorgeous One and the Bizarre One in the ring, having resolved their issue in finding common ground against Stardust. Goldust goes on to have the feud with his brother that he should have had earlier this year. Meanwhile, creative takes a long hard look at Tyler Breeze and decides to take a gamble on...
