Dave Meltzer says the biggest Money Making feud in Wrestling History was

[CM_Burns]

Makes sense when you consider how much they milked it. Four ppvs if you count the one they tagged in and 3 of them Manias.

First year build was great, but the year wait for the match cooled things a little bit to me. First match still had a good build though.

Last match nobody really cared.

Besst feud via satellite

 

[CM_Burns]

Im mad that the "ITS A FUKKING WORK" thread from the WM28 build is gone forever

 

[Metal Face]

1 YEAR Build.
Two of the biggest stars ever.
Yeah not hard to see why it made bank.

 

[Alexander The Great]

Btw I truly do not believe that the money from those 3 manias compares to the money drawn by Vince and Austin from 97 to 01...

you're going by opinion, he's going by actual numbers

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

you're going by opinion, he's going by actual numbers

He's going SELECT numbers, likely the gates of the manias

Austin vs Vince SHOULD include all of the related ppvs, all the mania, all the rumbles, all the venues they sold out and house shows, the t shirts, etc

It's not apples to apples because Cena vs rock was 2 manias and a rumble, and some raws. That's it.

The money honestly DOESNT compare.

Put the Rebel in the main event, huh? Online militants hushed again

 

[TransJenner]

I don't even remember the feud
Then again you could say that about all of the recent feuds

Nothing's memorable

 

[Here Comes the Pain]

The Rock is the biggest box office attraction ever.

Cena`s last mania match prior to the first match vs the rock bombed tremendously.

Yea. Basically that number comes from 2 manias that were gonna be successful anyway. 2 matches there could beat a 3 month feud of house shows.

prices in 2013 were way higher than 97-01, even when you adjust for inflation

Austin and Vince only wrestled once. That’s silly to count Austin wrestling corporate Dude Love as a part of Austin vs Vince.

 

[Kinguno]

Looking back the storyline was amazing CM Punk was on such fire my god when he turned on the Rock

All the money, because they would've died without that feud
