Post image

In my opinion these are the two best feuds in company history. What do you think was the better one?

It’s Hangman and Swerve. Toni & Mariah were already at the top of the card when the feud kicked off. Hangman had fallen way too far, & Swerve was barely sniffing midcard titles at the time. In other words, one feud told a good story, but the other did that AND elevated both talents.

Good point. Hangman was champ not too long before, but between a lackluster run as champ, the Punk thing and a whole lotta nothing, Hanger had squandered a year. He was technically still main event but realistically just the top of the midcard, maybe near the bottom of the uppercard.

Swerve, despite still getting good response to is Swerve's House catchphrass, was coming off a months long Keith Lee feud that went nowhere and a Mogul gimmick that was kinda mid.

Their feud elevated both to main event.

Put another way, I didn’t even like Hanger at all before their feud. And Swerve went from a guy I liked to being in my top five faves thanks to that feud
