 What's good y'all? It's your boy Ross back again with another video. So we're gonna check out 10 legendary WWE feud that dragged on way too long by none other than Kotaholic wrestling. I've been subscribed to Kotaholic for many years now a few years now actually so definitely go subscribe to him if you are interested in Just another YouTube wrestling source that's that's out there. So definitely go check them out but yeah When I think of fuses that just lasted a little bit longer than they should have the first one that comes to mind John Cena versus Randy Orton. Did they have some great matches classic matches? Yes, but we can all agree when most of us can agree They they're a few at some point. It was just done. I'm like Jesus. How many times have these guys fought the same thing? I can say the same thing with Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns I'm kind of tired of seeing them go back at it or main event WrestleMania's and stuff like that So there are those situations where the fuses can just go in a little bit too long But nevertheless, it still makes for some great memories and some legendary matches So let's get into this video appreciate all the love and support on the channel. Let's do the damn thing, man A Great feud can in theory go on for as long as it bloody well wants to because if the formula works and the stars align Then it works. I mean look We will all watch Stone Cold Steve Austin offer Vince McMahon a beer only to hit him with a stunner Of course Devastating kick to the gut anyway until the end of time because their feud is evergreen as are a few others in WWE history the trick is to keep things fresh and know when to quit or otherwise know when not to bring back a feud for an Unwanted sequel or two and that is because even legendary feuds between Hall of Fame superstars have their shelf lives I'm Adam Picciti from Cultaholic Wrestling and these are ten legendary WWE feuds that dragged on way too long I wonder if John Cena and Randy Orton's gonna be There we go My question was already answered at the beginning of this video. I love John Cena I love Randy Orton. They've had some great matches like I said, but their feud Got restarted so many times like they would revisit their feud too many times It got it kind of got boring now You know John's doing the movie movie thing the active thing and Randy Orton before he got injured was you know Kind of helping Matt Riddle get over. So he had his own thing, but brah I'm good on seeing any more matches from them. They they had some of their best matches Their story is they don't really have to tell much to they don't have to add more to their story I know some people would love to see one more match with them Maybe, you know one more match, but honestly, I don't think it's necessary in my personal being In the end it will be cockroaches Keith Richards and Randy Orton and John Cena fighting over who gets to be a record 57-time Two of WWE's greatest Developmental success stories always going to play a major part as leaders of the next generation Once the attitude era heard thin doubts But I'm not sure anyone thought they would be squaring off as recently as 2017 Arriving on the main roster that's crazy each other in 2002 It took big match John and the legend killer five whole years to have their first proper singles feud And that's crazy when you think about it It took them a while before they actually clash When they clash they just kept clashing. They just kept clashing. They just kept clashing They just kept clashing They had lined Summerslam that year just as they did two years later when WWE booked it again in between they feuded on the road to WrestleMania 24 Including a match at no way out and then a triple threat also featuring Triple H at Manure itself after 2009 They rested the feud before resurrecting it in 2013 and 2014 Yep, by then we had seen them wrestle on practically every event under practically every Stipulation and their matches and segments only served as a stark reminder of WWE's failure to create new stars Yep, it makes sense Triple H and Randy Orton, they've had a long illustrious feud as well Oh Triple H's association via evolution and the student mentor relationship. They had actually I think Triple H's last wrestling match Was Randy Orton? Yeah, his actual last in-ring wrestling match. I think it was an overseas show correct him if I'm wrong I believe it was Randy Orton. I think that was his last actual wrestling match Both on-screen and off there was no doubting that when the split inevitably occurred They would be long-term rivals Yeah happened much quicker than most predicted with the game betraying the legend killer almost Immediately after young Randy won the world heavyweight title for the first time in the summer of 2004 Hunter took the big gold belt from him a month later and the two continued to scrap through the 2005 Royal Rumble before Batista nicked Orton's spot on the road to WrestleMania Orton and Helmsley continued feuding as part of the DX versus Rated RKO saga and then resumed their singles rivalry in the autumn of 2007 and then continued to mix it up through the summer of 2008 Trading the WWE titles. They clashed numerous times on television and pay-per-view They collided several times more in the first half of 2009 again with the WWE title at stake Including in that ball fest of a WrestleMania main event before Packing it in for a while They brought it back 10 years later at Super Showdown with Orton going over Triple H in Triple H's final televised match Number eight the undertaker versus Mankind They definitely have a lot of matches too His role in helping to make the Undertaker more interesting when he as Mankind made his way to WWE in the spring of 1996 The Deadman had already established his mythical character by that point But his feuds and subsequent matches with all manner of freaks and giants had been largely lackluster for a while But Foley changed all that as he allowed Taker to show a lot more between the ropes than he had done previously Their bouts throughout the year were entertaining Yes, and they managed to keep things spiced up with crazy stipulations like the boiler room brawl and buried alive Yeah, by the time they met over the phenoms WWE title at Revenge of the Taker They had been warring for a solid year off and on and there was a definite sense that it was time to move on Which WWE did to be fair though they re-heated their program in 1998 for King of the Ring Everyone remembers that Hell in a Cell match. Yes, but their feud really had very little steam going into it Number seven Triple H versus Shawn Michaels. Now this one This one I think this one ended at the perfect time granted for a few years They were going back and forth because it was just such an intense blood feud, but I don't think they overdid it That's just my personal opinion. I think they it kind of worked Maybe maybe this video will you know show me because I don't remember all their matches, but I don't remember them Really just overdoing this feud between Triple H and Shawn Michaels was a natural one with the heartbreak kid having been supplanted by his DX understudy in the four years that he was retired following a crippling back injury sustained in 1998 They're unsanctioned street fight at SummerSlam 2002 was a stunning epic and had that been that for their rivalry It would have been enough But Michael soon realized his battered back had healed sufficiently for further matches and in the end a second run as a full-time in-ring Performer the matches and moments the hunter Shawn feud produced were it's fair to say a bit of a mixed bag They're three stages of hell and Hell in a Cell efforts For example were overblown forced epics that didn't live up to their main event billing They're blinder on the last draw of 2003 and last man's standing match at the 04 Royal Rumble on the other hand was simply Fantastic in the middle was well a lot of middling stuff Fact is between summer Samo to and taboo Tuesday These two spent way too much time on opposite sides of the ring Number six Randy Orton versus Edge when Randy Orton and Edge first started feuding into even with this one I don't think it was what I don't know. I don't I don't consider this feud That overdrawn out. I could be wrong. I just I don't know. I don't know They've had it back and forth off and on but I just don't I don't consider it overblown in my opinion like Overdone like the Randy Orton John Cena 2004 They were too hot young and hungry prospects desperate to break through the glass ceiling when they briefly resumed their feud in 2007 they were just about established in the main events in 2010 They were trusted headliners who were basically in between programs and killing time before moving on to something new and in 2020 they were veteran dads trying to navigate a friggin global pandemic and put on the Both men are great Together in the ring, but WWE went to the world one too many times and revived the rivalry that people didn't exactly go nuts about to begin With put simply when it comes to Edge and Orton the best thing they've ever done together is not one of their lengthy matches But the rated RKO tag team the rivalry between the Viper and the ultimate Opportunist provided some highlights such as their icy title cracker at vengeance. Oh for but it's not in the top five of Either's career number five. This is understandable Dean Ambrose. This is definitely understandable Me personally I did like their run when they came back to WDW or when Edge came back to WWE Enjoyed that run, you know the WrestleMania match they have was a little bit too long or whatnot But there they're set up the setup for it was great. I love their interaction the greatest wrestling match ever I think that was overblown, but it was still a good match I enjoyed it for what it was and I don't think they need to do it anymore. I think that's it for them No more going against each other. Let that go The shield were an unstoppable force for a definitely had plenty of matches that the hounds of justice would like any other stable Go their separate ways eventually while Roman Reigns was being groomed like the big dog He is for the top spot the most intriguing feud to come out of the shields Dissolution was the one between Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose at least the first time that is Yeah, you protect and lunatic fringe waged war after Rollins stabbed them in the back with a chair Not a knife to be fair and the two had some highly energetic outing It really helped elevate Ambrose especially in the eyes of the fans The highlights was probably their hell in a cell main event at the 2014 events of the same name You could see why WWE would run it back in 2016 and 2018 Especially with Dean playing the heel the last time But we've kind of seen it done to death by then and WWE's creative wasn't especially complimentary number four yeah, when they ran it back again as Dean Ambrose being a heel it had promise of working But then it just fell off the rails with the whole bang mask shit. It just got goofy quickly They really should have ended it When they first had to go around Generation X versus the McMahon's all right We may be stretching the definition of legendary here But there were three legends and Shane McMahon involved in this one And it did take up the bulk of what felt like the best part of a decade But as I look closer at the dates was actually only about six months I say only because half a goddamn year is more than enough time to wrap up a feud And this one honestly felt like it was much longer probably because it was an offshoot of HBK's feud with Vincent's son Which began at the start of the year and don't get me wrong I love a good knob or poop joke as much as the next well-adjusted adult male And hijinks that the DX lads pulled off on a weekly basis were perhaps just a tad too much As for the matches they were never gonna be classics But the hell in a cell blow off was shockingly brutal and ended with Vince giving big show of Even if the payoff came when the feud had already played out number three, I like when DX were being assholes I thought that she was that shit was funny, bro They were just pissing off Vince McMahon, bro. That shit was funny me personally. I enjoyed that that just it was it was funny to me Bret Hart versus Jerry Lawler the feud between Bret Hart this I don't really know too much 1993 King of the Ring when Lawler Jealousy decked the tournament winner and lasted all the way until the same pay-per-view two years later when the hitman made Jerry Eat his own foot Took place at SummerSlam a couple of months in with the king enlisting the help of an evil Doink the Clown as a roadblock before Lawler quote-unquote beat Brett after Hart refused to relinquish the sharpshooter Their feud might have actually ended at Survivor Series a few months later But the man from Memphis ran into some legal trouble and was taken off the show clearly craving a proper resolution WWE rebooked the two of them in back-to-back pay-per-views in 1995 with the excellence of execution finally getting that elusive win and finishing things for good There was some fun stuff in the feud which simultaneously took place in Lawler's Memphis promotion for a time And it was always a treat hearing the announcer make jokes at the expense of Stu and Helen But it didn't need to be drawn out for as long as it was Roman Reigns versus Brock. I'm glad this is on the fucking list Setters at the beginning of the video. So glad this is on this This needs to be their last match At this year's SummerSlam please It takes a special type of rivalry to headline WrestleMania on three separate occasions Before Roman Reigns and Brock Lesnar accomplished the feat in 2022 only the Rock and Steve Also had put on a trilogy on the grandest stage and only two of those matches went on last The Eastern Tribal Chief initially locked horns at the granddaddy of them all back in 2015 Meaning there was seven whole years between their first and last singles matches at Mania in the interim They fought in plenty of multi-man matches and had four other singles bouts including their WrestleMania 34 Chore of a main event Two matches on the Saudi Arabia shows close the show at SummerSlam 2018 Yeah, really their first match was their best and a lot of people say this their very first match I Had no right of being that good only because Roman was Highly hated Roman like nobody wanted him there that match was good That was easily still their best match them two going at it together Just singles competition their best match they've ever had that many years ago Elsa since felt like a bit of a letdown at the end of the day The Lesnar Reigns feud showed new signs of life with the Heyman drama and emergence of cowboy Brock in 2021 But by the time they stood across the ring at Mania for the third and hopefully final time There was a sense that everyone would be happy if the pair of them never so much look to each other again Let alone wrestled number one They've never had Crazy Yeah Plenty of twists and turns thrown in along the way to keep attitude era fans hooked until the supernatural sibling showdown Even the post-wrestle mania inferno match was intriguing due in large part to the novelty of the stipulation But from there it was a case of diminishing returns They reignited the feud in 2000 which was short and naff and then again in 2004 in order to kill off biker taker and bring back the dead man It was also rubbish, but nowhere near as rotten as their craptacular wet fart of a few in 2010 Yeah, which saw them stink out the joint on three consecutive paper Until Kane buried his bro again again. I forgot he did bury the undertaker Yeah, man, I can see how that would be the number one A few that extended a little bit too long man. So comment down below. Let me know which few do you guys feel like? Overstate it's welcome. Let me know down below me personally I'm gonna go with Brock Roman and John Cena reindeer with some great matches between both those feuds But I just feel like they kind of overstayed the welcome and you know, you could have given those spots potentially to somebody else You know up a coming star so but appreciate all of the support road to 90 K Appreciate talking to me. See y'all next one. Peace
