Heel vs Heel matches? Heel vs Face matches? Face vs Face matches?
I alway thought the best matches where you are on the edge of your seat were face vs face

Typically face vs face, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that I squeaked like a little girl when JBL and Triple H were all hostile to each other so many years ago.

Face Vs. Face ala Orton & Christian. But also heel vs face if they are evenly matched & both top guys such as Del Rio Vs. Christian.

It's tough to answer it that way. Because it really just depends on who is wrestling. Taker vs. HBK was Face vs. Face and it was amazing. But if Kofi Kingston and Chris Masters fought (also Face vs. Face), I'd have no real reason to get into it at all.
The same can be said for a lot of Face vs. Heel and Heel vs. Heel matches.

Heel vs Heel, because its interesting to see who the fans cheer for and boo for, also it usually means that one of them is turning face so Its a conversion.

All and none, depends whos wrestling and how its booked. If i can see from a mile off whos going to win then I can't get into it but when its a match where either can win or one of my "fave 5" is in it, I get into it a lot more (like Cody Rhodes vs. Daniel Bryan on Smackdown).

I get more into GOOD wrestling matches.
The characters, the build up, all the BS acting....it's all a waste if the match falls flat.

Heel vs. Heel matches rarely work as far as crowd reaction goes. The only two successful ones that come to mind are Triple H/Kurt Angle from RR'01 (which featured interactions from Stephanie, Trish, and Stone Cold in its favor) and I believe there was a pretty badass Edge/Randy Orton match on Raw in '07 shortly after WM.
Heel vs. Face matches are the simplest matches for crowds to get into which is why we see them 95% of the time. It's a working formula and there's nothing else to say about that.
Face vs. Face matches wind up being the most exciting because they're rarer and it can be tougher to predict who will win. This sort of thing works well for giving a match a big time feel. Austin/Rock (at least their WMX7 match), HBK/Undertaker, Cena/Batista (their SS'08 match), and the recent Triple H/Undertaker match all felt huge because they took two of the crowd's favorite competitors and let them square off to see who was the better man.

Heel vs Heel usuallty because I like heels better and like to see which one the crowd goes for.

A high profile Face vs. Face match (HBK/Taker, Orton/Christian, etc.)

Reaaly doesn't matter, but I'll list my favorites matches from each side of the spectrum.
One of my top Face v. Face matches was Cena vs. HBK in London.
One of my top Heel v. Heel matches was Angle vs. JBL in that Last Man Standing Match before the Rumble in '05.
And Face v. Heel... I honestly can't decide. I'll go with Edge vs. Taker from WM 24.

A good, old fashioned Face vs. Heel match is typically the way to go, but on special occasions, I love seeing Face vs. Face. Christian vs. Randy Orton is a perfect example. It often leads to top quality matches.
