Tatanka vs Martel, except for August, they feuded all of 92. Over a feather Martel stole. Because they never interacted at all during August and their feud was barely touched upon, it made Tatanka look like an idiot. Martel goes off to feud with Michaels over Sherri, while Tatanka starts feuding with The Berserker for some reason during that period.

As far as the Tatanka/Berzerker feud goes, after the match was announced, they started feuding.

Did Rick Martel and Tito Santana ever have a proper blowoff match on PPV after Strike Force broke up? Seemed they'd always run into each other in the Royal Rumble for years.

Sheamus vs. Alberto Del Rio Oh c'mon, it didn't amount to nothing. After all, it gave us this...

Ahmed Johnson vs. The Nation. I came in to say this. I love watching random episodes of Raw out of order from that time period, and it amazes me that no matter what episode from whichever month in 97 I choose, there seems to be some Ahmed-Nation segment

You ABSOLUTELY could not tell what month of the year it was they were feuding. Jan 97 felt like Apr 97 felt like Jun 97 felt like Sep 97 felt like Nov 97 felt like 98. It was ridicolous.

I love Boogie, but Jimmy Valiant vs Paul Jones’ Army. It just seemed to be a way to keep those guys busy, and while it did give us Shaska Whatley, it didn’t really do anything with him. This will always be the winner IMO. It lasted for years... essentially non-stop..and nothing ever changed. Other than that hair vs hair match, there was no payoff. In hindsight I don't understand why Crockett/Dusty didn't let them fight over the National title. There was a perfect opening for this in 85 when they started letting guys like Taylor, Bart, etc into the mix. Let Valiant beat Black Bart for the title, and then Jones sends his army after it. Instead it just revolved around Jones and his obsession with Jimmy Valiant. Any time I watch 80s NWA, I wind up having to skip the Jones-Valiant stuff. It's nonsensical and boring.

I said it before on here in a familiar thread but Balor vs Bray felt like it never ended, then it didn't even end in match between them.

I don't know how long it actually lasted but Darren Young Vs Titus O'Neil seemed to last forever but still went nowhere. It certainly didn't make Darren great again. Believe it or not, it only lasted a month or so, before Darren got injured and the whole thing was dropped. It was the beginning of Titus Worldwide, though, so there's that. What? That's crazy. I'm pretty sure every wrestling memory I have is false at this point. Maybe Michael Cole was right the whole time and I just imagined that The Undertaker had been manhandled like that before.

You ABSOLUTELY could not tell what month of the year it was they were feuding. Jan 97 felt like Apr 97 felt like Jun 97 felt like Sep 97 felt like Nov 97 felt like 98. It was ridicolous. The first few months of the feud was okay. The logical conclusion should've been at Wrestlemania 13 in that six man street fight. After that, Ahmed should've gunned for the IC title that he never lost. It running any longer, especially with him joining and then getting booted out a month and a half later was really unnecessary and it killed whatever overness he had left. To add to this thread, The Gang Warz angle lasted like, 6 months which consisted of nothing more than pointless brawling that took up multiple PPVs and RAWS all throughout 97(and maybe into early 98). Also, what was the beef between The British Bulldog and The Warlord? They seemed to feud all throughout 1991 because?

Two I can think of that haven't been mentioned,good idea to read the entire thread before posting so you dont have 10 posts in the row of the same thing.
Jimmy Snuka vs Metal maniac-there two feuded for close to a decade. Yea I know it happened cause Metal agreed to be Jimmy's driver/babysitter on the road.
And this one I doubt people outside of MS have heard of.
Faroh of Phunk vs Chris Black-Feud started close to 20 years ago and has never really ended. Sure they might on some events tag up. But within weeks they are feuding again at another small indie.

I don't know why they didn't pivot to Ahmed Johnson vs. Owen Hart for the IC title in the spring of 1997. And maybe even have the dream match that never happened between heel Bret Hart and babyface Ahmed Johnson. Bret could pull off a good match with Ahmed at this time.

"UNDERTAKER AND KANE ARE IN CAHOOTS" is still one of the weirder storylines of the Attitude era. It went on for what felt like just shy of an eternity, had Vince weirdly invested in something that literally didn't impact his character's plans much at all and in fact helped him, and Austin was going to be feuding with Kane and Undertaker regardless of if they were allied or not. I genuinely not sure what the goal was outside of TV filler.

Apparently it started when Warlord claimed his Full Nelson was unbreakable and no one could escape from it. Davey did at WM7, and they feuded all throughout the year because of it.

This is the one. Did Paul Jones actually ever feud with anyone else at that time in the NWA? The only reprieve Jones got from Valiant was when Rude and Fernandez won the tag titles from Rock N Roll Express. They briefly feuded with them and a feud with Road Warriors was brewing until Rude surprisingly bailed out of the blue to WWF. Edit I forgot the brief feud between Superstar Billy Graham and Jones Army in 85.
