How do you guys end the feuds in your feds?
Steel cage matches are a good method and I use them occasionally. Sometimes, even less often, I will use Hell in a Cell matches- but only to end my major feuds.
To eventually end some of my current feuds, I am also thinking of using things such as I Quit matches and loser leaves town matches.
But what do you do to end your feuds?

How do you guys end the feuds in your feds? Steel cage matches are a good method and I use them occasionally.

To eventually end some of my current feuds, I am also thinking of using things such as I Quit matches and loser leaves town matches. But what do you do to end your feuds? Depends on the intensity and status of the wrestlers involved: For a feud that is prestige based (title/main event status) I'll build to a 'sport' orientated longer duration match (2 out of 3, Iron Man). I then tie it to a definitive stip (ie. loser leaves town, no rematch for a year game time, serious injury aftermath, etc) so the end comes with a strong consequence that's tied to athleticism. That allows the loser to do the honors, while going out on his shield. Underlying credibility is somewhat protected. Lower to mid card blow offs will be more free form. I think at that level, a mix of outlandish comedy and over the top violence can be an appropriate payoff (head shaved, wear a chicken suit, etc). Those type of matches can be more sports entertainment orientated (ie. ladder match, hardcore JBW specialty, etc) than the serious sport stuff I like for my more protected upper carders. By compartmentalizing different standards for different talents, you can have your cake and eat it too. My all time favorite type of blow off match is Last Man Standing. It tends to have extended game play with all the additional dice rolls involved (avoiding quick fluke finishes). Those can really go for a while...which I tend to want for a final showdown.

Some feuds never really end, but are just back-burnered. Some feuds just turn into other feuds. And some feuds need something special.
It could be a hair vs. hair match, it could be a dog-collar match, it could be a last man standing, it could be loser leaves town, etc.. The wrestlers in feud dictate how to end it, most of the time.
