Barry Windham gets the push. Plan B would be Ricky Steamboat. In an emergency situation there would be no time to bring someone new in, introduce them, and immediatly make them the flagship guy. Someone popular from within who has mainstream appeal would be the way to go. What he said. Windham's smack-dab in the middle of the US Express, right? Patriotic Barry Windham as top guy! Book it!

Pushing Windham as the kind of replacement Hogan only to have Hogan come back, take the spotlight, and push Windham to the side, forcing Windham to go super heel and take Hogan out because he came back and stole the spotlight would be a pretty neat idea.

Windham is a great idea.
How about Randy Savage

The problem with Windham is that he is part of the tag champs. It would be hard to push him as the top face as long as he holds the tag belts.
I mean, Steamboat is the IC champion, so he has to defend his belt as well. This would be tough, because if he won the tournament, he would have to drop the IC strap...that would mean a second tournament. It would look bad.
I guess we'll see what happens, I have title defenses scheduled.

I guess we'll see what happens, I have title defenses scheduled. Off the top of my head, say Windham and Rotundo are defending the tag titles and Roddy Piper is doing guest commentary at ringside. Windham has words for Piper at the outset about Piper taking credit for putting Hogan out. Piper fumes, argues with him, but sits and does the commentary. Moment of truth comes, ref is down, Piper gets in and knocks out Windham, costing them the tag belts. Now Windham wants revenge, Piper is sitting on top of the world, and the title tourney is coming up. Windham throws his name in the hat and the rest books it's self. Steamboat: similar thing. Steamboat does Piper's Pit and is disgusted by Piper's talk about injuring Hogan. Ace attacks Steamboat, I-C title match between Ace Orton and Steamboat is made. Piper costs Steamboat the I-C belt. Steamboat gets into the world title picture, ect, ect.

That was the kind of stuff I was hinting at. Someone (or someones) would have to drop a title to get them into the World Title hunt....at least from those guys.

Well, now that Wretlemania has happened and it was Superstar Billy Graham making a grand return, what do we think?
