To start with: Book 1999 Goldust to win the WWF title in a plausible manner.

To remind myself I went back to cagematch.net to check his statistics - for some reason I remembered 99 Goldust as being involved in all the Terri break-up stuff that year but it happened earlier. His loss percentage in 1999 was 81% :stare:

Wasn't Jake actually originally slated for the Higher Power position?

Gavok, loved your Goldust idea.

Here's one I've always wondered about: Book RVD's dual title reigns with the WWE and ECW Titles in 2005 if he had never been pulled over with Sabu and found with drugs. How long does he hold both? Is it Cena or Edge who gets the WWE belt from him? Would you still book Big Show to take the belt from him as a transitional champion before moving to say CM Punk? Given Vince's initial fervor for ECW and his tendency to lose interest, how would you incorporate his muscle-lust for Bobby Lashley into your booking decisions?

A lot of that (and all fantasy booking, to be fair) relies a lot on fan reactions which aren't always easy to judge and predict, especially with somebody like Bobby Lashley being thrown into the mix. Still, I dig that the ultimate end result is that everything ends up largely in the same position it was in real life, without the bad aftertaste of RVD's ruined title reign.
