I want to focus on WWE only so it is easier to narrow it down.

We have seen some epic feuds since the new millinium. Feuds that have risen to great heights and went far past our expectations. There have also been some not-so great but I want to focus on the best ones. In your opinion, which WWE feud from the year 2000 until present has been the best?


I don't think this one is the best but I thought I'd throw it out there since it popped into my head and that's the Edge/Matt Hardy/Lita love triangle. I feel like it was an amazing feud because it gave us a real life effect. The way it played out with Matt delivering a shoot promo and telling us all what truly happened in the begining was great. It was one of the few things that was actually entertaining in Matt Hardy's singles career.

A few more to think about are Stone Cold/The Rock, Triple H/HBK, and Cena/Edge.

I will say HBK/Jericho.

There's a lot but that there was my personal favorite, the entire story to it was just something that kind of had a grasp and made you wanted to watch to see what'd happen next. Loved the feud and everything to it.

I'm with HBK/HHH for this. Enjoyed their near 2 year feud immensely even if somethings didn't pan out well case in point their awful 3 stages of fall match up.

If Rock/Austin happened with it's entirety in this century I would have went with that.

I actually enjoyed Trips/HBK Three Stages of Hell. I'm with KIF though, if I had to just pick one, it would most likely be HBK and Triple H feud from 2002-2004.

Had they kept it up and found ways to have kept the title on Punk without him actually being on the show and things of that nature then the Punk vs Cena/WWE feud could be in this conversation. But I'm gonna with the feud that I don't think gets enough attention and say HHH/Jericho. Their second feud wasn't all that great but their first feud with was classic from the LMS match to their promos and Jericho in his top form as a face, Stephanie being a hell of a heel manager and HHH at the top of his game. The Raw match where we thought Jericho won is a go to example of how to get the crowd behind a face without winning the world title and making them want to see him win the belt.

HBK and Triple H really stands out the most and that's not just from what people mentioned it's the way their fued played out. It was awesome, every match they had was a must see and it wasn't like each time Triple H or HBK won. The fued at the end of the day in my eyes was a split.

But, the fued I'm going to go with is Randy Orton and Triple H. They had their fued early back in 2004 and into the early part of 2005 and those two put on some great matches and worked well together. Then the rivarly renewed itself when Orton this time the heel attacked Vince McMahon in 2010 and thus started a fued with Triple H for the second time. And although their match at WrestleMania 25 didn't meet expectations because of HBK/Undertaker stealing the show, to me it was better then Cena/Big Show/Edge for the World Title. But, that match wasn't that bad after watching it a second time. To me that's the fued of the 21st Century!
