1. Chris "Kassius Ohno" Hero Instead Of Roman Reigns
CM Punk wanted Kassius Ohno in The Shield instead of Roman Reigns. Extrapolate this notion and then realize that Chris Hero could've main evented WrestleMania 31 versus Brock Lesnar. The match would've featured one of the best-seasoned veteran performers anywhere stepping into the ring versus a part-time WWE performer with legendary grappling skills. The Rolling Elbow versus the German Suplex. Oh my! Instead, we ended up with Roman Reigns versus Brock Lesnar which turned out surprisingly good, with the payoff of Seth Rollins' near year with the Money In The Bank briefcase being a nice cherry on top of the pie. But man. Chris Hero, Tyler Black and Jon Moxley could've been in a stable working with (and against) CM Punk. As super-indy as WWE appears right now, that would've been even crazier, right? Oh what could've been!
