Best Feuds

Recommended Posts

Guest TheGameah
What do you guys think that were some of the best feuds that you enjoyed?

 

I really enjoyed the build-up in the Sting/Hogan feud...when I ordered Starrcade '97 with a bunch of friends it felt like we were watching the Super Bowl. Too bad the payoff was so horribly botched.

The whole WCW/NWO feud was handled very well for the most part up until Starrcade 97.

 

For WWE, I loved the Austin/Angle feud in 2001, and the Eddie/Lesnar feud in 2004. Sure, that one only lasted 3 weeks, but that was a great 3-week build with Lesnar being the cocky young champ, and Eddie being the old guy looking for a second chance. The match played right off the build and that's a big part of why the match (and Eddie's win) were so great.

The very first feud to really impress me was Flair/Vader. I was young enough, I was worried that Flair was literally going to be crippled.

 

The HHH/Angle/Steph triangle.

 

Jericho/Malenko

 

Raven/Saturn v Benoit/Malenko v Rey/Kidman was an oasis in a sea of shit back in WCW.

 

Raven/Dreamer

 

Rock/Mankind

The transition between Flair/Steamboat to Flair/Funk was so well done. They planted the seed having Funk do color during the 2/3 Falls match just to get Funk back on peoples radar. His being objective during the match makes you comfortable with Funk in spite of his rep. That way when Funk challenges Flair after he wins the title back... no one sees it coming.

Tully and Magnum TA had the best payoff, IMO. Stabbed that motherfucker right in the eye.

 

Shawn and UT served it's purpose.

Chris Benoit Vs. Kevin Sullivan

 

Face it, Benoit wasn't getting near the top at this point. It was a cool feud that was on EVERY show (Sat. Night, Main Event, Nitro) and even had lots of intrigue.

 

Benoit brings a tape of Kevin's son that has the boy criticizing Sullivan for not being a good father.

 

Subtle hints that Benoit's banging Woman. A video of Benoit and Woman at dinner is shown.

 

Sullivan's just losing his mind. Sicking crazy ass Meng on Benoit.

 

Plus we got some of the best (and first) nationally televised ECW garbage brawls, like Sullivan/Benoit Baltimore House Show (with Benoit showing up 2 days later on Nitro all bruised), the GAB Falls Count Anywhere, and the Bash at the Beach Career Match.

 

Despite being a smark darling, Benoit was actually the dick in this feud, and Sullivan lost his mind.

I didn't like how DDP leeched onto the Raven & Saturn/Benoit feud and then started beating everyone, thus making the great matches and battles between the Flock and Benoit seem pointless since none of them could beat DDP.

well yea and the way they kinda implied that Woman was Sullivans girl despite that never being mentioned on tv before.

 

My fav part was GAB aftre the match when Arn came out to (you thought) stop Chris from attacking Kevin and instead joins him in a horseman beatdown while the crowd goes insane (really a loud pop)

 

at bash at the beach Woman stops Benoit from beating on kevin after the match yelling "stop iit Chris, you're going to hurt him"
