I really wish HBK had spent more time as WWE Champion in the mid-00's. I think, for the longest period there, he really was their top guy. Cena didn't draw right away. I just wonder how things would be different if Cena was chasing Michaels' spot for a few years. It was largely the tenacity of that push that people resisted. And he was so young and green when they jammed him into it. Cena was always good, don't get me wrong, but Austin said it all started to click for him about 7 years in. By then Cena was already in the stage of his career where the perception was set.

I dunno -- just thinking out loud about HBK. I wonder if he could have been a bigger star if he had come back to be on top in that period?
