Rebooking WWE Great American Bash 2005: 8 Ways To Make It Better

5. JBL Vs. The Blue Meanie - Street Fight

One of the most interesting stories to come out of the ECW One Night Stand PPV was that a drunk JBL deliberately and viciously attacked The Blue Meanie in an unprovoked assault during the show-closing brawl. Meanie considered filing a lawsuit against JBL and WWE, but managed to reach a deal with the company and dropped it. The deal was that Meanie would get a (worked) match with JBL at a Smackdown taping (which he won, thanks to interference from Batista) as well as a PPV match at the Bash. Why not kill two birds with one stone and have Meanie face off with JBL at the Bash instead? JBL versus Batista, the Bash 2005 main event, completely sucked because JBL was allegedly sangbagging Batista and otherwise not cooperating properly. Stick him in with Meanie and try and cash-in on the One Night Stand incident. As a match, it wouldn't be anything special, but it could be an entertaining brawl under street fight stips. The Wrestling God would win, of course, since Meanie isn't going to be sticking around for long. Give it about ten minutes and lots of gimmicks and see what happens.
