    Triple H/Rock should definitely be higher. They came up through the ranks feuding against each other and they continued it as they both made it to the main event.

    They always had great chemistry together too. The Strap match is a classic, the 2/3 falls match is another classic they had. Always loved their work together.

    Also they should have had Hardyz vs E&C because they actually worked a lot together outside of the TLC matches. They are another feud where they raised each other up.

    Weak list, they shoulda just kept it wwe/f cuz some of those nwa or ecw drops aint even top two or three to be on the overall list.

    Top Ten WWE/F Rivalries

    Top Ten WCW Rivalries

    Top Ten ECW Rivalries

    Shoot..

    To be honest not a bad list if you cut it after #20..

    I sorta judged it too harshly on first read cuz starting from #25 is bogus....

    No Benoit vs Eddie of course.

    Despite the lackluster match Hogan vs Sting defined WCW...

    Do people even think of Hogan vs Piper?

    Ill take Hogan vs Warrior over that.

    Savage vs DDP waa good even tho short so I can see why it was left out.

    Rude vs Steamboat.

    Vader vs Sting

    Hogan/Piper created the hysteria around Wrestlemania so I'm not surprised they placed it on the list. Of course neither ever pinned the other during that time but I guess that's irrelevant. They also touched on their feud again in WCW so it branched two different companies, and the biggest wrestling event of all time. It deserves it's spot, really it should be higher.

    They padded the list by adding WCW/NWA/AWA/ECW to it. I guess It their way of adding these organizations to their history. Also you can argue that there wast gonna be a AWA's Greatest feuds dvd coming even though they could and would easily do ECW and WCW/NWA's.

    Edge pinned Cena at Summerslam 06 in Boston I think. It obviously wast clean and it set up Edge losing the ladder match the next month at Unforgiven in Toronto.

    I wish they could've had Benoit vs Angle on it instead of Lesnar vs Angle. Angle vs Benoit was an off and on feud for a good 3 years in WWF/WWE.

    HHH vs Rock should've been a little higher. I would've put Austin/Rock and Dusty/Flair higher than HBK/Bret, but that's just me. I also feel like Hogan/Andre was ranked too high just a bit, as we've only got one classic moment to remember there. But I get why its there
