I remember when Rey and Andrade were just having great matches on free television and I just wondered why they didn't have a 1 on 1 match on PPV.

[@jacktease27]

Hopefully Rey does better at getting the New LWO over

[@Joecbg100]

Always something to stop his momentum, he was very good in WWE with Vega and even Angel Garza.

[@probablyhuman5781]

Buddy Murphy vs Tony Nese got me to pay attention to wrestling again. Andrade vs Rey were the matches that got me truly into wrestling after a decade away.

[@unholyperiodza5442]

If only Andrade spoke English because he sounds like Jabba the Hut when he talks.

[@zanethind]

Exactly!

[@multiyapples]

Christian versus John Cena would’ve been an instant classic.

[@RICH300K]

Pun intended?

[@leelower8814]

I see what you did there....

[@Jamessmith-xk3fh]

I thought that was were it was headed when he was doing Raps on Cena when Cena got drafted to Raw with the spinner title for the first time

[@rayhoyer4829]

​@@Jamessmith-xk3fh it's cool he went and got a better title!

[@dhenderson1810]

I feel WWE never looked as Christian as a main guy, but more as just Edge's sidekick or tag partner.

[@omega.male4231]

Christian’s backstage rap at the 05 Rumble was class and was an early glimpse of the crowd taking more of a liking to the heels Cena was feuding with rather than Cena himself.

[@nujabeez6573]

They didn’t do Cena vs Christian 1 on 1 because the crowd was behind Christian every time he dissed Cena in segments

[@ahimsamovies4484]

Yep, the video should have mentioned this, Jericho has confirmed it himself that this was why he was inserted into the match. Christian was super hot at the time and WWE essentially punished him for getting more over than their handpicked golden boy, drafting him to Smackdown and jobbing him out until he lost all momentum and naturally left for TNA. Fuck Vince for (among many things) the way he always held back the immensely talented Christian in all his WWE runs (like making him lose the world title to Orton 2 days after winning it for the first time in an incredibly emotional moment).

[@gejamugamlatsoomanam7716]

​@@ahimsamovies4484 vince even wanted to put a blue dot over christian face on tv

[@night6724]

@@ahimsamovies4484 That’s revisionist, Christian didn’t job out to mid carders in SD. BTW I love how everything is “getting themselves over” yeah because it was Christian’s idea to feud with cena and do a rap battle

[@_Pauper_]

Austin left to go save his wife… the irony is thick. Also real sad.

[@dibyoghosh]

They should’ve pushed Christian with a world title in 2005. He was super over at this time.

[@REfan2002]

Cena v. Christian would have been clutch

[@claymathewselevator8121]

R Truth should’ve gotten a longer US Title run

[@91untilinfinity91]

The Rock vs. Triple HHH is the biggest feud that never truly had an ending. Their final match was on an episode of RAW..

[@SteRDLK]

HHHHHHHHH

[@dhenderson1810]

They fought heaps of times on PPV.

[@gustavoclarindo101]

Sonya Deville vs Naomi was so good and never had a pay off

[@BabyKnukleDustr]

Surprised Jeff Hardy vs the Undertaker wasn't on here

[@claymathewselevator8121]

I loved Booker T vs Stone Cold in the grocery store

[@r.heffner-hoe4983]

Pure gold

[@elisamaria3628]

“Price check on a jackass” 😂

[@EdDaBawsh]

4:30 I never knew Ultimate Warrior wrestled Pink Guy 😂🤣

[@mattalan6618]

Austin Vs. Eddie comes to mind

[@Joecbg100]

Hell, Austin vs Chris and Eddie since they came back to hunt Austin and then blamed Flair for losing Austin.

[@dhenderson1810]

​@@Joecbg100That's because of Austin walking out. "Stone Cold" himself hand picked Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit to jump to RAW to feud with him, because he wanted fresh young opponents, and rated them. Austin was meant to feud with Eddie, and then Chris, with a Austin v Benoit match to take place at "Summerslam" that year. They had a storyline that Ric Flair was SC's slave then, so the two of them would then team against Eddie and Chris in a tag match, only for Flair to turn on Austin and then they would feud up to Wrestlemania. However, "Stone Cold" had a dispute with the company and walked out, throwing away the potential programs in the process.

[@Joecbg100]

[@rhedosaurus2251]

In fairness, Randy Savage vs. Ric Flair WAS a much better techical match then anything that Hogan and Flair did in WCW.

[@hbjshowslopper]

Fun fact. Every one of Randy's World Title losses in WWE and WCW were to either Hogan or Flair

[@TheBuddha337]

​@@hbjshowslopper That works for him. Brother.

[@Jamessmith-xk3fh]

I definitely wish they would have done Christian vs Cena when Christian was doing Raps on Cena during the draft when Cena was drafted to Raw for the first time with the spinner title

[@SJ_RANKS]

I remember Daniel Bryan and mustafa ali having a feud at the beginning of 2019 and instead of having them fight at the royal rumble (which makes sense) we got aj styles vs Daniel Bryan and I’m sorry but I think it should’ve been Bryan vs Ali aj had like 5 matches with Bryan

[@theharv1490]

Blame Randy Orton for ruining Ali’s momentum

[@dhenderson1810]

Is that leading up to WM35? Yeah, Bryan was booked to defend the belt against Ali, who they were going to push to the moon. But he hit injured before Elimination Chamber and pulled out. Kofi was inserted into his place, and got so over in that match, that he was given Ali's program and won the belt against Bryan at WM35 instead. So it was an injury which cost Ali.

[@tutin4090]

I remember in April 2010 when Christian told Edge he wanted to face him, then Edge went to Raw and retired there, we never saw that

[@johnyang1731]

This needs a part 2. I would put Santana vs Martell ahead of warrior and undertaker. You also have debiase vs Hercules, Miz vs Alex Riley, hogan vs perfect, Eddie vs Austin,

[@davidfox4922]

Christian was knocking it out of the park in 05. I wonder if WWE were worried that he was becoming too popular and would have more of the crowd backing him than Cena.

[@MandalorianRevan]

Probably. They practically did the same years later with Zack Ryder too.

[@LucotIC.]

“Until Triple H pedigreed King Booker all the way to TNA” Calm down bro. 💀💀💀

[@ANDCFC95]

Some of Booker’s best work was at TNA

[@Probblems]

#1 definitely deserves to be #1 . The build was amazing!

[@TheGreatDevlin]

There was no winning with the Christian feud. He was too big to ignore, but you couldn't take the belt off the guy you wanting to pin the company on.

[@ahimsamovies4484]

They could have just done what they did with Edge the following year. He feuded with Cena extensively and won the belt off him twice, as they helped make each other into the biggest babyface and heel in the company. Only reason that couldn't have happened with Christian is because Vince never liked him that much (the way he did Edge) and didn't want him to be a top guy.

[@scpjack7856]

I haven’t watched this yet but Hulk Hogan Vs Paul Orndorff needs to be number one. Lasted the entire second half of 1986 and was one of the most lucrative programs in wrestling history, entirely resolved between Wrestlemania 2 and Wrestlemania 3.

[@mikeroagreschen5350]

Austin beating up Booker T in a grocery store and chasing him through a church were better than any match.

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Booker T and Jerry The King Lawler are 2 of my favorite wrestlers so I love their feud

[@garedb2344]

Matt riddle Vs Seth Rollins blew off on raw

[@robcressey7228]

Good list but why THAT picture of Flair with not The Belt he showed up with?

[@daviddalrymple2284]

That Ultimate Warrior vs. Undertaker feud is one of the earliest things I can clearly remember following in WWF. That whole business with Jake the Snake training Warrior for the final confrontation (with challenges like burying him up to his neck) only to betray him at the last moment? I loved it. I don't know why they had to suddenly shoehorn the Warrior into the Hogan/Slaughter feud (which should have ended at Wrestlemania in the first place) but I guess that was just how it was done at the time. Vince loved to pair off his top babyfaces.

[@zanethind]

John Cena and Christian would've been great to see on ppv actually

[@demonator001]

John Cena v Christian Feud could have been awsome, both can cut awsome promos, have great matches and christian could of definitely elevated himself, however VKM never saw christian as a main eventer

[@joseymunoz4176]

I always believed in Christian and couldn't believe they wouldn't give him a main event spot. Like even batista said in an interview he went to Vince and wanted to work a world title storyline with him and Vince said no repeatedly, glad he went to TNA and got the 2 NWA titles there

[@Wicked3627]

Great video 😎👍

[@musicdragonmountain2911]

Legion of Doom (Road Warriors) vs Demolition would've been main event worthy if given the correct push. Damn Vince was (and is currently) nuts.

[@markrussell3414]

Excellent video 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🦾🦾

[@mutts.nutts1]

For some reason always in my mind that Hogan Flair fought at a wwe ppv

[@claymathewselevator8121]

The Grandest Preshow of Them All

[@dhenderson1810]

Here's an interesting fact. Despite being in the company at the same time for almost ten years, there was never a PPV match, nor even a feud, between Chris Jericho and the Undertaker. They were always either on other brands, different programs, both faces at the same time, or both heels at the same time. During that period, they had one-on-one match, on a UK episode of "Smackdown" which was only announced that night. The closest they got to a PPV match was once at "Survivor Series", but that was a Triple-Threat also involving the Big Show.

[@gqsmoove87]

They did have one match on smackdown 11/13/09

[@daltonpinell6251]

2:24 hits a whole lot more differently now.....

[@Surreal469]

There were reasons for some of these but yeah. Also, Martel v Santana. Duh!!!

[@moopert86]

I get WWF's business model was quite different back in the day, but man why would you book the main event of Mania and then Run the match on house shows ahead of time? That would be like Booking Hogan vs Andre in the early months of 87 and having the slam happen all over the country before selling a PPV around it.

[@airfixx_8952]

Mr Perfect v Hulk Hogan Macho Man v Honkytonk Man Roddy Piper v Rick Rude (not 1 on 1) Tito Santana v Rick Martel (not 1 on 1) Jake Roberts v Ultimate Warrior Jake Roberts v Earthquake British Bulldogs v Hart Foundation

[@stevegallo8483]

Cultaholic used a picture of Ric Flair with the wrong belt! Flair had the big gold belt in his possession when he went to WWF in the early 90s, and not the NWA World Championship belt.

[@lilpoetat]

thanks!

[@claymathewselevator8121]

Loved Damian Mizdow

[@VOTE4CHANGE]

Austin v Booker T should have been the Wrestlemania 18 match, Scott Hall & Nash should have won that 4 corner tag title match as it would have limited their time in the ring and then Edge & Angle could have faced off in trilogy of matches with the rubber match being the hair Vs hair at Judgment Day. Kane could have laid waste to everyone holding the Hardcore title all show and losing it to Maven just before the main event

Would Rey vs Eddie count? They had several PPV matches during the feud, but the finale came on a random Smackdown. It was kind of weird how they had hugely built up matches for months, and then suddenly went "They're having one more match tonight! Okay, Eddie won, feud over."
