10 WWE Dream Feuds That ALMOST Happened

As wrestling fans, we've been lucky enough to see many dream feuds and matches play out in WWE over the years, but we can't help but ask for more and wonder 'what if', can we? Sometimes WWE actually intended on giving us what we wanted, but for one reason or another, it never quite came to pass. These are 10 WWE Dream Feuds That ALMOST Happened!

Nobody: Hogan: THAT DOESNT WORK FOR ME BROTHER!!!!!

[@polarbear138]

That Eddie/HBK dream match hits hard. That would have been something really special.

[@polarbear138]

Ditto for Eddie/Stone Cold.

[@gabrielledormuth4634]

Eddie and HBK it sounds so amazing to think that it was gonna happen but one can only dream now about it 😢😢😢

[@TheFriendlyWeirdo]

If WWE just let Savage wrestle more often, they would’ve been able to keep one of their stars away from WCW.

[@danielgertler5976]

My dream match/angle that never could have happened would have been Bret Hart vs Kurt Angle. I think that could have been some really really good matches.

[@jayroq5895]

Bret Vs Kurt is on my dream match wrestle maina card. Main event to be exact

[@Yodelayeehoo]

This would’ve been the goddam master class of all wrestling matches

[@spitfire18213]

Face Kurt vs Heel Bret? Get the money printer

[@FozzQuaker]

Prime Bret v Prime Kurt, that be a lesson in Wrestling... Two of the best technical Wrestlers who ever climbed into a ring

[@TheRod187]

Omg I was waiting to type this the whole time.

[@georgemetcalf8763]

Still can't believe we never got Gillberg versus Ralphus.

[@seanchan4478]

Aj styles in his prime vs Shawn Michaels in his prime is my personal dream match

[@unfixingbowl5454]

I say Eddie would’ve retired from a full timer like in 2012 and could still be wrestling as a part timer to this day

[@ohyeahyeah9199]

If rey is still a full timer i believe eddie could have too

[@brycetebeck3295]

In A parallel universe he still could be 🤔but I agree 110% if Eddie didn’t pass away he would/could still be putting on classic matches

[@tourguideplays5477]

Some of my favorite dream/fantasy matches: Aj styles vs hbk (that fan image was really well made) Randy Orton vs Stone cold (rattlesnake vs viper) the obvious sting vs taker. The Wyatt family vs the brood would have been something incredible.

[@cjaypaz9842]

Eddy Guerrero vs Straight Edge Society CM Punk or Eddy Guerrero vs 2008 Chris Jericho would've been mine

[@mycahjofficial]

*Guerrero vs Michaels at ‘Mania 22 would’ve been a barnburner classic but due to Eddie’s tragic death, it was never meant to be. R.I.P. Eddie*

[@Biggucci97]

Between hulk hogan, Shawn Michaels, and Stone Cold has anyone ever drawn the short end of the stick as much as Bret? 2 were backstage politicians that screwed him out of the title and stone cold became the man while he was out with injury. Imagine these things don’t happen he might have been the biggest start WWF ever had.

[@erikstorm8935]

Maybe among hardcore fans, but not among casuals. He didnt have enough personality to be their VERY favorite.

[@chaosdromanah8620]

Imagine a feud between Brock & Bobby Lashley

[@for111]

Meh

[@thechamp30]

They already did it 3 times

[@KingsNerdCave]

Although they were getting older it's an absolute crime we didn't get Undertaker vs Sting in 2015, I think the mood would have been electrifying. Also that Savage vs Michaels storyline sounded really interesting and then McMahon would have gotten Randy on the commentator table in the end anyways.

[@rudys.4380]

I saw one of those House Show matches between Austin and Guerrero. That feud had potential.

[@leroyjetson2840]

Ambrose vs. Foley is a dream fued?!?

[@DeegoL9]

Ambrose is mediocre at best

[@mikesharon2177]

Austin vs Eddie did happen They had a match on either smackdown or raw I cant remember but have it on dvd

[@syxodude91]

Match may have happened but they didn't have a full on feud.

[@Algoth_Igneous]

If eddie and hbk had that match, the sheer amount of work rate would be on par with either taker vs hbk mania match.

[@DeegoL9]

Brett Hart vs Kurt Angle, Owen Hart vs Eddie Guerrero, Owen Hart vs Benoit, Razor Ramon vs Stone Cold (I know we have WMX8 but it wasn’t the same), DDP vs the Rock, Outsiders vs Kane/Taker, Taker vs Sting, Macho Man vs the Rock, AJ Styles vs HBK, AJ Styles vs Brett Hart, Kurt Angle vs Mr. Perfect

[@iddopompan1442]

Batista vs. Lesnar

[@SharkVshore]

Randy vs The Rock

[@zadok23]

i feel like we got a "taste" of what the Austin vs Punk feud COULD have been during the Jericho Vs Punk rivalry.

[@theghostreckon69420]

Beer

[@themachodan13]

This video actually cleared something up for me. I’ve known for years now that Stone Cold walked out because of the Brock situation. At the time the word floating around where I live was that he didn’t wanna work with Eddie. As I found out the truth I couldn’t figure out why I would think it was because of Eddie. This little history lesson cleared that up for me. Thanks!!!

[@Shaun_3114]

WWE '13 was THQ not 2K

[@UncledadBFD]

Imagine Angle vs Bret. Sadness

[@Santeria78]

😢

[@themilkman4448]

Thank god for Journey of Wrestling so we can simulate dream feuds

[@19gingerpale94]

I always wanted to see the Battle of the Irish!!! Finlay vs Sheamus Only thing we really got was the Brogue Kick from Sheamus against Swoggle in that Royal Rumble match.

[@brinettejc]

Am I the only one who didn't notice CM Punk had on an Austin shirt?

[@JM1993951]

First Punk thinks he’s as big as Cena, so he doesn’t wear a suit. A few years later he thinks he’s big enough to get his heat back on Stone Cold?

[@darthnihilus3495]

And the award for the most non sensical comment goes to....you! Congratz

[@marcot9289]

Just something small, the interview with Punk and Stone Cold wasn't for a 2k game, was just WWE 13 published by THQ

[@ianfeuerhake1859]

The Hogan/Flair house show thing doesn’t make sense to me. At this point it was already clear that house shows didn’t mean much, so fans weren’t as invested in them. Also kinda ironic that Patterson got to present the first Royal Rumble at a house show that supposedly didn’t go over that well, and Vince brought it up to the networks sarcastically, and next thing you know it became one of the biggest events of the year, and was the catalyst for these lucrative Saudi Arabia shows.

[@agentorange1156]

Wm 22 Eddie vs HBK Undertaker vs Benoit Would of had 2 of the best matches ever

[@braedenmartin8596]

Is hulk hogan real name Terry 😂 😂 😂

[@Seth_-lq1rr]

Shawn Michaels vs Daniel Bryan or Aj Styles

[@artbell85]

Imagine R-Truth vs David Otunga!

[@DJDoubleCee]

A big shame we never got to see a match between Stone Cold and Hulk Hogan. In no disrespect to The Rock, I think Stone Cold would have been a better opponent for Hogan at WrestleMania 18.

[@oddishhonor]

Nope. The magic that match made would’ve never happen if it were Austin.

[@DJDoubleCee]

@@oddishhonor Well even Stone Cold went on to say in interviews that he wishes he would have fought Hogan and a match should have happened between those two.

[@erikstorm8935]

I think the buildup and hype could have been better, but I cant see how it'd have been a better MATCH than Hogan/Rock.

[@erikstorm8935]

@@DJDoubleCee He also said he didnt think it's have been up to standard.

[@ShaunInce123]

I don't think Austin would have sold for Hogan in the same way The Rock did.

[@garyhen1707]

The only dream matches I have are cm punk vs Austin and undertaker vs sting, both could still happen, but I chose taker vs sting just due to the hype, but realistically Austin and taker would win. Kinda runner up matches would be Roman vs MOX Guevara vs Rollins Punk, Bryan and styles squashing twinkletwat and the dumb bucks

[@billygsell3625]

Didn't Roman Reigns vs. Jon Moxley (under his WWE name, Dean Ambrose) already happened in Survivor Series 2015 after Seth Rollins got injured?

[@ccreds8545]

@@billygsell3625 jon moxley and dean ambrose are very different characters

[@manmythmothman]

A bit weird maybe, but some of my dream matches were Samoa Joe Vs Goldberg and Roddy Piper Vs Mr. Anderson. The first for the match, the second for the character work.

[@sammcpherson82]

Orton vs the rock 1 on 1

Like Budweiser and tanning oil 😂

[@jerransperarman9411]

good video

[@stingrey1571]

I think hbk vs hogan is kind of how Austin vs hogan would have worked. Austin who wasn’t scripted, would absolutely eviscerated hogan in his promos. The match itself would have been ass as Austin goes 100 mph. While hogan travels at 45.

[@REDACTED9494]

Yeti vs Great Khali vs Giant Gonzalez

Giant Gonzalez vs Great Khali

[@PaTThRaX]

My dream matches/angles would have to be, mick foley as cactus jack vs Dean ambrose or John Moxly in either a hell in a cell match or a barbed wire massacre match. Also I would have loved to have seen a tag team match, CM punk and Samoa Joe vs triple H and Shawn Michael. Would have been fantastic to see in like 2006 or 2007

[@venomsnigle44]

The Rock vs Shawn Michaels at mania could have done incredible work

[@lilpoetat]

thanks!

[@davidfair2009]

Eddie Guerrero would have mopped the floor with HBK.

[@rob9241]

If it was a real fight, I agree but a wrestling match. These are two showboats they would have put their bodies and heart on the line to make the best match ever.

Plus the situation with The Elite. Now he has a title match, and a good thing going with Dark Order. Whats the point in drinking? Unless he's suppose to be an alcoholic. In that case his character should be trying to get more help lol.
