Laz Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Raven/Dreamer It encapsulates everything that I see as pro wrestling storytelling, lasting years and intersecting with a plethora of other feuds throughout. I got into ECW about a year after it ended and you best damn believe I sought after as much of it as I could after the fact. Hell, I even bought the Star Wars-style 20th anniversary shirt for it.

Sean Liska Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 To me the beauty of wrestling is that my favorite two feuds are Jumbo's guys vs Misawa's guys and Austin-McMahon. So different and so great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Enthusiast Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Not sure if it's my absolute favorite, but I loved the Matt Hardy-MVP feud of 2007-2008. Maybe the last slow-burn midcard feud WWE has ever done. Lots of twists and turns with Hardy first chasing him in title matches, then needing to overcome ridiculous challenges like basketball, burger eating, and boxing (Evander Holyfield!), then joining together as a tag team, then MVP turning on him when he realized Matt was getting too close to the U.S. title. Matt costing him MITB at Mania and then finally beating for the title the following month was super satisfying.Great pick. That was the feud that made me a wrestling fan. I really wish the Network had curated playlists for things like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmartMark15 Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 Growing up as a fan in 06, Edge-Cena defined a lot for me. I can't really objectively point to it and say it's an all time great but it was a lot of fun for what it was. I thought the HBK-McMahon storyline was quite strong in the lead up to Mania 22 then it fell off a cliff. Those are some nostalgic favorites. When I started watching indie wrestling, ROH vs CZW, Danielson vs. McGuinness, Punk vs. ROH, Generico-Steen all stand out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cad Posted December 3, 2017 Report Share Posted December 3, 2017 La Fiera vs El Dandy from 1992. Fiera is one of the alltime great bad guys in this. No one else was doing backstage beatdowns or chain attacks in 1992. The blowoff isn't a classic and for overall match quality both guys probably had better feuds, but this one gets a sentimental boost for me in part because it was one last bit of peak CMLL awesomeness as things were crashing for the promotion. Plus I love Fiera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
