First year.

[Cor]

Banks/Bayley

 

[Dr Pepper]

DX vs Taker and Kane.

The others at least involved active talents....well, quasi-active in Lesnars case.

 

[Jussi]

Banks/Bayley

Though I voted the Geriatrics match, that would have been a good choice. The fans know those two are inseparable in real life and on tv, no one bought it.

 

[Maffew]

Sami, Bobby...what in the hell were they even doing...

 

[bobholly39]

Banks Bayley because it was never even a rivalry, just stupid lol

Not sure why people are voting DX vs Taker/Kane. There were some awesome promos in that feud. I get some people dont like watching those guys that many years later and that's fine - but the actual material was really good.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

Sami and Bobby Lashley was atrocious, but as it turned out, Sami was too hurt for anything more.

There’s no one person that gets me to change the channel quicker than Bayley. Whatever angle they do going forward, I probably won’t care about. Easily the worst.

 

[Le Tricolore]

I wanted to vote for Lashley and Zayn but at least it got Zayn on TV each week. Went with DX vs BOD.

 

[GKJ]

Can you be a rivalry if you never rivaled?

I just feel it was a tired and unnecessary feud, used to drum up ticket sales because WWE Creative clearly wasn't doing enough with its' on-screen talent. I'd be fine if all four of them retired from competing altogether once that match was over. Give the attention to the younger crop. And I say this knowing that some of the active wrestlers are nearly the same age.

@Cor vs OT thread
@BonMorrison vs Poor people

It was because that's what KSA wanted. They bought that match and bought Shawn Michaels' retirement.

 

[Shoalzie]

Lashley and Zayn was just so dumb...thankfully it didn't go on too long.

AOP vs. Gable/Roode made a run for it. A feud involving cross-dressing or peeing your pants...it's a toss up.

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Lashley and Zayn was absolutely painful.

 

[SeidoN]

Lashley/Zayn might have been alright if it was face Zayn Vs heel Lashley with Lio. But yeah, not great

Sasha/Bayley was unbelievably awful though

 

[Cor]

@Cor vs Becky Lynch

@M.C.G. 31 gimme my Slammy

 

[GarbageGoal]

The week Bayley beat the hell out of Sasha and said "You think you're the Boss? You aren't shit!" was awesome. Other than that it was bad.

I still went with Lashley/Zayn. The first week was fine and then it just turned so one sided....

 

[M.C.G. 31]

@Cor vs Becky Lynch

@M.C.G. 31 gimme my Slammy

you'd have worst gimmick of the year.

 

[GarbageGoal]

You gotta get heat.

 

[M.C.G. 31]

You gotta get heat.

@Cor had the "go away and go f*** yourself, bubba" heat though

 

[TNT87]

Banks vs Bayley. Could have been terrific but I still don't know what they were trying do.

 

[Habsrule]

I chose the geriatrics. Triple H is the only one who can still put on a half decent match. If this rivalry was ten years earlier it would make me happy.

This match is like having the Wings and Avalanche rivalry say that they want to play one more real game game under NHL rules. Viewership would be grand but the actual game would just be lacking.

 

[GarbageGoal]

Honestly I turned the channel every time Taker/Kane/HHH/HBK came on so I didn't vote for them.

 

[Cor]

you'd have worst gimmick of the year.

I’ll take it. Post the thread

 

[M.C.G. 31]

You don’t deserve one, bubba
