5 WWE storylines that were meant for other Superstars

#4: Hogan's WrestleMania X8 opponent

'Stone Cold' Steve Austin Vs. Hulk Hogan remains one of the biggest WWE matches that never happened.

At WrestleMania X8, Hollywood Hulk Hogan faced the people's champion, The Rock, in a true meeting of icons.

Hogan had dominated wrestling during the 80s and early 90s, though The Rock had become the champion of the modern generation.

And though it was the Brahma Bull who toppled Hogan that night, that match wasn't the original plan.

Instead, Hogan was originally scheduled to face 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin, a match that would have also been a meeting of two icons.

Reasons, why the match was changed, vary greatly, from the company being unable to decide a winner, to Austin feeling the match wouldn't be good.

Whilst the Hogan-Rock match is truly iconic, it does mean fans missed out on one of the biggest dream matches of all time.
