Well I was thinking last night after pooping in Judgement Day '04 and watching it that JBL vs. Eddie Guerrero was such an underrated feud and really so was Rey/Eddie. So I was wondering if you guys could think up your favorite underrated feud.

There's some JBL love going on as of late, I'm kind of digging it. I actually think JBL's feud with Big Show was kinda underrated, as well as his one with Cena.

The feud with Big Show was pretty good I liked their No Way Out '05 barbed wire cage match Show can't buy a break in cage matches. And the feud with JBL launched Cena and made him I don't know how people miss that feud. I also think JBL's feud with Taker was really underrated is it possible JBL is the most underrated wrestler of all-time.

You can't really say it was "Underrated" when it's one of the only few good things to come out of 2004 and helped launch JBL's career and make Eddie Guerrero a star. Me, personally, I always loved the Big Bossman/Big Show feud in late 1999. I thought it was gritty, disturbing and sick. It made me hate the Bossman and I consider him one of my favourites of all time... I just wanted to see Big Show kick his ass. Fantastic acting from both men. A lot of passion. Was never going to bring any 5 star matches but not every match has to be 5 star quality to be enjoyable. It finished the feud off perfectly. Really enjoyed it. I also liked the Bossman/Show feud. Asfor Guerrero/JBL when people say notable feuds how often does it come up.

JBL got crap on for being a stale tag guy and then being thrown into the limelight with Eddie and winning the WWE title. His character was great and proof that you didn't need to be Ric Flair to be an amazing heel world champion.

I wouldn't call JBL a stale tag guy.. He was paired with one of the IMO best wrestlers around in Ron Simmons. The APA can not be topped.. They always performed without missing a beat, and had some of the best promos I can remember..
APA = one of the best tag gimmicks ever.

I also liked the Bossman/Show feud. Asfor Guerrero/JBL when people say notable feuds how often does it come up. Depends who you speak to, really. Most of the people who watched at that time are no longer fans. A lot of the modern fans only say what they've seen posted on forums and the JBL/Eddie Guerrero feud was more of a solid overall feud than one which had 1 good match or 1 good segment, so it won't get mentioned often enough. I don't think it's "underrated" underrated, though. People will give it praise when they are reminded. Doesn't have to work for it like, say, the Bossman/Big Show feud does. It wasn't "underrated" underrated but it was underrated. I think Rey/Eddie was more underrated because most people remember them as BFFs but from Halloween Havoc '97 on they had some great matches

Not like they did in the 2000's. They'd seen and done it all and Bradshaw had gone from that rough Texas look to the clean-shaven with slicked back hair look. It was time for them to move on. Bingo, man. The APA was basically all but dead at that point. It was disapointing to see how irrvelvant they became by the time Bradshaw got back from his injury in '03.

Undertaker vs Mankind I consider as one, Honestly they put on some of the best matches in the history of the WWE, the feud was unexpected and it was a stepping stone with Taker's feud with Bearer and his clients.

True but it's kind of the same as Eddie/JBL where it's "underrated" but not underrated. I think the feud HHH had with Rock was more underrated.

Bret Hart & Stone Cold.
It's the feud that got me into wrestling and it's still my favorite of all time. It certainly isn't forgotten but I think more people remember Bret Hart/Shawn Michaels & Stone Cold/Vince McMahon.

regarding the last years, I have to say: the whole Y2J vs HBK & JBL thing.. the feud lasted like the whole year and they put on some great matches like the ladder match at noMercy..

Michaels vs Jannetty Ramon vs Martel Headshrinkers vs Steiner Brothers Godwinn vs Helmsley Vader vs Yokozuna Money Inc vs Steiner Brothers Michaels vs Tatanka
I think the feuds could have went longer and been great. My opinion.
