Best Feud never to happen

Give a feud, give a reason

Main:HBK and Gurerro.

Why: Heck I respect both of these guys and seeing them promo against each other would be promo GOLD.

Mid: Benoit and Tazz ( Both in WWE and not ECW)

Why: promos would be ok, not great but just the matches I can see being VERY fierce and technical up to a Benoit v Angle standard.

Low: Kaientai (Heel) and the APA

Why: Comedy, beer, EEEEVIL and humor. At least it would be better than King v Cole :P

Sting Vs Steamboat
Could just see these two putting on good matches

The Rock vs HBK

would of been a very interesting feud between 2 legends

As soon as I saw the title, this was the one I was going for. But you beat me to it haha.

Would have been, in my opinion, up there with any of the great feuds.

Shame it was backstage politics that got in the way.

lol UpsideDownFace read you like a book , shame about the politics backstage though would of been a great feud

Punk vs Stone Cold

Punk's straight edge grimlock vs Austin's beer drinking grimlock would of been great to see

There was an article discussing what Paul Heyman would have done if he had joined the TNA booking team. He was considering what to do if Bryan Danielson had come to TNA after being fired from WWE. The overall plan was to push Bryan as a submission machine going over most of the TNA roster. The final product would have been a feud between Kurt Angle and Bryan Danielson I would kill to see them in one match let alone a series

Shawn Micheals vs The Rock
Austin vs Goldberg
Undertaker vs Sting
The Macho King vs Brock Lesnar
Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle

I like the idea of HBK/Rock, Austin/Goldberg as one off mega matches Gaff.

As far as feuds go, would have like to have seen the Mr. Perfect/HBK feud teased at wm9 come to fruition.

Also think a babyface Bret Hart works as a perfect foil to Brock Lesnar's monster heel. Hart/Angle writes itself, could go either way face/heel wise or a 'respect' feud. The matches would be the finest imaginable.

Owen Hart/HBK post Montreal. Suprised WWF never ran that one considering how frequent they would reference the screwjob in the future. Unless Owen/HBK didn't want to make light of the incident (more likely to be the former).

HBK vs Rock
Bret vs Angle were the 1st two that came to mind....

What about Austin Hogan anyone?

This one could still happen but a face Chris Jericho vs The Miz.

They wanted to do this but Michaels refused to work a full programme with Owen and then got injured two months later. By the time Michaels returned, Owen was dead.

Main event - Stone Cold ( attitude era ) v Ric Flair ( late 80's) both in their prime . Promos would of been awesome

Wrestling match - would of loved to of seen Dynamite Kid v Benoit . master v apprentice what a match this would of been

Now - Jericho v Punk , the company man v the rebel

King Kenny's selection is my favourite yet. Austin (late 90s) vs Flair (late 80s) was the first one that came to my mind. Dynamite vs Benoit is a great shout as well.

Jake the snake v Randy Orton, the mind games could be amazing.

Impossible i know, based on their characters Mankind v Cactus Jack fued would of been sick. Barbwire matchs, boiler room matches etc.

Hogan v Cena, Boring i know but if i was 6 years old again watching it with my six year old son.

...and that's my least favourite yet!

Thanks for the info crips. Also Kenny's Austin/Flair shout is excellent. I think the redneck beer-swilling character versus the flashy playboy would be gold!

Legion of Doom VS Demolition.

I'm not sure you can say it didn't happen but man did the WWF screw it up when they made these matches!

The brought the Legion of Doom in to feud with Demolition who were champions in 1990. Demolition introduced a new member called Crush and basically cheated every week against everyone, when the ref wasnt looking they'd swap places, someone would hide under the ring, always causing mayhem and annoying people.
They were also having fantastic matches and no team seemed to stop them, they built a huge angle over months with the teams calling each other out and the wrestling fans were really looking forward to the huge match. Well sadly it didn't really happen... Legion of Doom interfered in the Summerslam 1990 match costing Demolition the title to the Hart Foundation then they had a couple of 6 man tags with the Warrior included in house shows, and that was it, nothing on PPV at all...
It was just a huge waste of something that could of been one of the best angles in the history of wrestling.

Im not a fan of picking 'fantasy' fueds by putting wrestlers together from different era's ie Flair (80s) v Austin (Attitude Era), i thought the article was intended in terms of 'The best fued never to happen between wrestlers in the same era' that COULD have been booked. So on that basis i'd say...

Bret Hart vs Hulk Hogan '93

The Rock vs Shawn Michaels '97/98

Brock Lesnar vs Triple H '03

CM Punk vs Chris Jericho '09

hulk hogan verses cena would have been cool

pauline1981 wrote:hulk hogan verses cena would have been cool

No it wouldnt.

Heel Bret Hart v. Lying cheating stealing Eddie G?

The reason the Demolition/LOD feud didn't happen was because of the poor health of Axe, Crush was never accepted as a member of Demolition from the fans

There was never poor health for Ax, he simply developed an allergic reaction to shell fish from working in Japan. He collapsed while on tour there and was taken to hospital but provided he didnt eat that type of fish again he would be fine. There was no other incident and Bill Eadie (Ax) still wrestles to this day without any problems.

hogan and gunner would make a great feud on tna

pauline1981 wrote:hogan and gunner would make a great feud on tna

Great as an alternative to counting sheep, yes!

Steambot/HBK would be a lesson in selling for every aspiring wrestler, the two best sellers ever coming together would have been amazing.

Strange as it sounds, I would have loved a 3 way between Vinny Mac, Easy E and Paul E...wouldn't be a classic but I think a lot of people would have liked to see it.

If they had represenative wrestlers it could work, as they all are good at promoing.

Personally I don't rate HBK as one of the greatest sellers ever. Never liked the way he'd flip into and over the turnbuckles. For me, to be the greatest seller there has to be a level of authenticity and realism to your movements. Didn't always get that from Shawn.

Non fantasy fueds that could of happened

well to be honest then Sting v any top WWE performer

Ultimate Warrior and Sting might of been a good one!

To back this up heres demolition the 08 king of trios teamed with One Man Gang

And here they are this year

well they didnt get on when they tag together so does that count ?

Jake 'The Snake' Roberts V Raven

Why: This not only would be the best mind games feud, but also both match each other in terms of wrestling styles and skills. The feud would've gone for ages.

Thanks for making the effort to post the links for me, but I saw them already, when I heard they made a come back I was naturally very interested.

I was actually at the last Demolition tag team match ever in the WWf on May 2nd, 1991 in London. Incidentally it was also the last time the Hart Foundation tag teamed to, before they all went into singles. It was a fantastic match with the Hart Foundation winning, which píssed me off as I was there with my best friend and he was a Hart Foundation fan while I was cheering for Demolition!

Just a few, I'll add why tomorrow:

Shane McMahon vs Alberto Del Rio

JBL vs Alberto Del Rio

(Face) Jericho vs The Miz

Eddie Guerrero vs Alberto Del Rio

MCMG vs Edge and Christian

Brock Lesnar vs John Cena - Both as heads of the company

Jericho (Face) vs (Heel) Punk

While you're right about the alergic reaction you're wrong to say he never had poor health, he was extremely ill in Japan and for a few weeks after getting home, it was not known at the time that he had an Elergic reaction and the belief at the time was that he had a hole in his heart, he had suffered chest pains a few years earlier and ignored it, Crush was rushed in before Ax got the green light to Wrestle again and Vince became paranoid that Ax would drop dead in the ring so they fazed him out, he and Smash have been back on the circut for a few years now.

Can I ask where you heard that from please? Because having watched the Shoot interviews of The Masked superstar and then the Demolition one, Bill Eadie, brings up the shell fish incident but there is no mention of a heart problem.
