Can't remember the alignment in 2000, but it culminated in the Royal Rumble title match in 2001 where both were heel. Has there been another main title match contested between heels? Sheamus vs. Orton at the Rumble 2009 or '10. Ah, okay, so that was a title match. Can't remember that PPV at all. How did the crowd react to it?

Fans mostly went for Orton since he was getting a lot of face pops anyway and was turning a month later, plus Sheamus had actual heel momentum from beating Cena for the title the month before and being the newer heel.

Heel vs. heel feuds are pointless in a company like WWE. WCW and ECW were much more focused on the wrestling side and so you could watch a match with two heels just because workrate. But WWE is more about story and character and mic work, and you have to pick a side to cheer for. If you've got two heels feuding and one gets cheered, he is failing to be a heel correctly, you should be booing both guys - but if you're booing both guys, why give a f*** about the match at all?

It lasted like three weeks, but Ziggler feuded briefly with CM Punk late last year.

Heel/Heel feuds rarely work. However, the Angle/Trips feud over Steph was pretty awesome but maybe that's just because both guys were on fire at the time. Either way, I enjoyed it.

Ideally the fans should cheer because these two guys they hate at beating the shit out of each other instead of beating up their heroes.

If I remember correctly before they were a tag team Miz and Morrison had a little feud in ECW, I remember one match started cause Miz sucker punched Morrison backstage.

Corporation vs. Ministry of Darkness Yeah, then the higher power reveal completely nullified any coolness that feud had.
