Listened on the road today and, as always enjoyed the conversation. Every feud is different, some the trilogy works well for and others I could keep on going and going. Best feud in the GWF I've ever had was Wolf against Bishop Hell. Bishop Hell had turned face and became an ally of Wolf, but the pairing didn't last and a feud ensued. At one point, the good Bishop hit Amazonia with a HELLFIRE leading to a bloody rivalry; later he then brutally assaulted Wolf, leading the galaxy to believe he had died. Iron Mane stepped in for Wolf and kept the feud going, but one day, Wolf showed back up (shocker, he wasn't dead after all!) and the brutal, bloody battles continued.

Great episode. Thanks for taking the dive into my question. I'd say one of my greatest feuds in GWF is one that's still ongoing Fist vs. Shayne. I'm someone who really tries to keep tag wresters as tag wrestlers but Fist won a Royal Rumble type situation for a title shot against Shayne and though Shayne won that match, Fist really took him to the limit. I have Fist as the one guy Shayne is hesitant to fight but they've had some great battles and I don't see it ending anytime soon.

I listened to some of this show last night while driving last night to House of Glory vs FSW. I think I heard something about a feud between the Armstrongs and the Midnight Express?
Back in the black and white card LOW days, I had a feud between the Armstrongs and the Midnight Express. But it was not much of a feud because The Midnight Express (not surprisingly as the Bobby Eaton/Stan Lane combo is one of the greatest tag teams in the history of my LOW fed and they of course have much stronger cards) dominated their feud with the Armstrongs. However, the New Age Outlaws had a better feud against the Midnight Express in my fed.

Wow great topic! After you got through it I was like can't wait to see what the main topic was and then everyone did their closing stuff. Was that episode really 71 something minutes? Guess time flies when you're having fun!
Greatest legends feud ... Ed Lewis/Frank Gotch was how my fed was born, every match was epic. Biggest Legends feud let down ... Dibiase/Savage, big Savage fan, was ready to crown him and Dibiase decimated him. Recreated Mania IV and Dibiase crushed him, then won the next five matches and I had to end it.
Greatest champions feud ... Bloodline/Encubus is jumping to my mind first as I remember those being classics. I loved old man Thantos vs Matador as Thantos couldn't beat him clean but found ways to win and irritate him. Biggest Champions feud let down ... Overmaster/Havoc to this day scarred me. I built up the feud as Havoc wanting to take control of the team but couldn't do it. Was going to end minor inner team feud but then black death happened and started it again. Overmaster again dominated him. Havoc ended up leaving a broken and beaten man. It was a sad ending but a fitting one. Shocked when he came back because I had no idea what to do with him lol

Very fun episode, great topic. Enjoy hearing how other promoters handle feuds.
My best feud has to be Bobo vs Buddy Rogers which has been off and on feud since I started playing. Buddy took the latest battle which was a Loser Leave Town match.
