| Re: Top 10 feuds of all-time
Nice reads so far. I'm still not sure who the "old school" fans are, and who the fresh fans are...but I tend to lean towards the good old days. So here are my top 10, in no particular order...
1. Ted Diabiase/Virgil - Before the huge Stone Cold/McMahon, classic battle of employer/employee, there was this bout. I've always been a huge supporter of both men, and it was great to see them go at it over the Million Dollar Title.
2. Undertaker/Ultimate Warrior - Growing up as a kid, the deadman WAS pretty frightening. I still look back to a spot on the Funeral Parlor where Taker stuffed Warrior into a casket after clocking him with the urn.
3. Jake The Snake Roberts/Earthquake - The big man squashed his snake.
4. Lex Luger/Yokozuna - Outside of Hogan/Sgt. Slaughter, this was my first real exposure to a nationalistic-pride based program. I still remember the Lex Express making its way across the US and having actually met Luger as a kid at a JC Pennys on the tour.
5. Randy Savage/Ric Flair - Early 90's when Flair made his WWE debut...still remember the title he sported being blurred on television, and the infamous Elizabeth/Flair photos that showed up in WWF magazine, only to be proved to be fake. And the wedding where Savage was bitten by the snake...hahaha, ahhh I loved it.
6. Matt Hardy/Edge - Something much more recent! I love programs based on legitimate heat, and while I don't appreciate the fact that Hardy never got his just dues in their bouts, I'm still glad it came to light.
7. King of Hearts Owen Hart/Bret Hart - Jakobean17 summed it up pretty nicely.
8. British Bulldog/Bret Hart - Damn, awesome matchup at Wembley Stadium.
9. Austin/Rock - Amazing matchups. Definitely something Attitude-Era fans will cite in explaining why it was the best time for the WWE.
10. WCW/WWF Ratings War - Have to love how they were always trying to one up each other...DX showing up at the Nitro tapings...etc. Surprised no one made note of this yet. |
