I talk about the art of long feuds. Back in the 80's and 90's, you had feuds that even if not constantly on, went for years and years without being drawn on. HHH vs Rock didn't feud in all PPVs for their tenure against each other, but you knew they hated each other and they could easily jump into a feud with each other because the heat was always there, for example.
But for years, that booking standpoint was lost. As long or as personal as a feud would get, if it went for more than 4 PPVs, it was already drawn out.
However, in 2007, and without exactly knowing it, we saw this lost art being recovered.
Edge cashed in MITB on an injured Taker starting a year long feud. We would see then Edge cost Taker the belt at SS in HIAC by attacking him, then, a month later, he would stole the belt from Taker by stealing his pinfall and winning at Armageddon.
Wrestlemania, we have Edge vs Taker, a long feud already, and Taker wins to give us the feel good moment, the ride could very well be over, however, it would be far from it, as we would see this feud continue over Backlash, Judgment Day and One Night Stand, and then, hit its climax at Summerslam with HIAC.
Edge vs Taker has gone for more than year and one could argue, there is still a lot of things to do between this two.
But this isn't the only feud that could easily go for a year long. HBK vs Jericho has gone now since Judgment Day until now, and just like HBK vs Taker, it could easily continue.
So, what do you think about this? Do you think that we will get more of this kind of feuds?
