#1. Eddie Guerrero - Did WWE plan another world title reign for him before his passing?
Eddie Guerrero is one of the most beloved superstars in WWE history. Despite his tenure with the company only being between 2000 and 2005, the impact that he had on fans was unparalleled.
It wasn't an era where it was common for WWE to have relatively smaller-sized Latino superstars as the world champion, but Guerrero changed that stereotype.

Many modern fans may not remember, but his WWE title victory over Brock Lesnar at No Way Out 2004 remains an all-time great moment in the company's history.
Eddie Guerrero asked for the world title to be taken off him in mid-2004 as he saw the declining ratings on SmackDown and took it personally. In the process, he elevated JBL into main event status, with the latter also having only one world title reign in the promotion.
Guerrero was scheduled to be a part of a triple threat match between Batista, Randy Orton, and himself. There were reports that he was scheduled to win the World Heavyweight title, but The Animal disputed these claims later on.
Be that as it may, the latter's injury late 2005 made him vacate the World Heavyweight title, and Eddie Guerrero may have been in a prime position to win it. However, it's only speculation at this point, and none of it matters in the grand scheme of things, especially considering how his life tragically ended in November 2005.
