>>19815475I think Vince would have booked it similarly to what actually happened. Apparently AJ lost the passion he once had and felt it was time to get out before his body deteriorated further. Many have remarked on how good AJ still looks and moves, but that might have something to do with his obvious increase in steroid usage over the last 2-3 years. AJ may have started worrying about how the roids would affect his health if he kept using. Vince would have respected his wishes and fed him to the "career killer." The only sensible difference Vince might have made would be in promoting the match as the focal point of another SNME, instead of sending AJ off in the 2nd match of an event where his retirement wouldn't be the main thing on the show.
