Final Four Original Plans

By Scott Keith on 9 May 2018

It has been said that despite rumors of Bret-Shawn for the WWF Title at WM 13, that they decided ahead of time that it would be Sid-Undertaker for the belt, even before Shawn gave up the title prior to the IYH PPV. If the Final Four was supposed to be winner gets a title shot, was Undertaker supposed to win? Did they have that Final Four concept in mind even before RR 97 where Shawn won the WWF belt back from Sid?

​Final Four was supposed to be a #1 contender match as originally envisioned, so I imagine Undertaker was going to win. The logistics with the Rumble finish changing and Shawn losing his smile make it hard to say 100% how they were getting where they were getting originally, especially with Vince changing his mind constantly at that point.​
