Hopefully I'm wrong, but sounds impossible to me.

It's unlikely. I think We Don't Run could have been a moderate hit, I'll never understand why they released the Nickelback rip-off from Burning Bridges instead of WDR. Sat Night even got some airplay for a week or so, before the radio stations tired of it quickly and went back to Prayer et al. WDR would have actually been a bit of a statement and may have grabbed some attention. Obviously, not mainstream attention in this era of Ed Sheeran and mumble rap but enough to have a popular hit possibly in the lower reaches of the top 30.
For it to happen it would need to be a good fresh sounding song which gets the backing of the record company and then radios / tv to push it and for Jon and the band to get off their arses to promote it. We're pretty far away on all counts most of the time these days.
Probably the next time we'd see Bon Jovi trouble the singles charts is through a contemporary artist covering one of their songs.
