Line 13:
* [[For Want of a Nail]]: WWF is gone and the NWA is supreme due to Wrestlemania failing. Several wrestlers such as [[Chris Benoit]], [[Eddie Guerrero]], [[Curt Hennig]] and [[Owen Hart]] are still alive and only Bam Bam Bigelow, Eddie Gilbert and Giant Baba are noted for not appearing. Several wrestling promotions that are notable today don't exist in their current form or at all, while some federations such as the [[American Wrestling Association]] and [[Extreme Championship Wrestling|Eastern Championship Wrestling]] are still around, as is [[World Championship Wrestling|WCW]], as the Ric Flair owned [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Ric Flair Promotions]].
* [[In Spite of a Nail]]: The WWF is still technically around, only in the form of Titan Wrestling and is still a national company because of their sports entertainment style (that had to be slowly introduced to the public). Several of the real-world World Champions are also crowned in around the general time period of their real wins; and traces of real promotions can be seen in the new ones. Also, the majority of the Von Erich brothers, Eddie Gilbert and Bam Bam Bigelow are still dead.
* [[Istanbul (Not Constantinople)]]:ECW never went extreme (in their naming, at least) and retained the Eastern, Jim Crockett retired earlier than he did in real life due to bad business deals and sold the company to Ric Flair, creating Ric Flair Promotions, ECWA changed their name to NWA Athletic Arts in 2004 in the timeline, as well. It even extends to wrestlers gimmicks, as [[The Undertaker]] never received his deadman gimmick and continues to wrestle as Mean Mark Callous and [[Steve Austin]] continues his movie star prima donna "Stunning" Steve Austin gimmick.
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: Delivered in-universe by an angry Rena Mero, who's all-women promotion was snubbed from the NWA supercard Starrcade due to political reasons.
* [[Ric Flair]]: Never able to wrestle again after his infamous plane crash in the scenario's first point of divergence, Jim Crockett sold the company to his protege, who has made it moderately successful.
