Savage vs HTM had great house show matches. Without Hogan they would sell out buildings. Honky's best matches of his career were against Savage.

Could please do the Ultimate Warrior and the Million Dollar Man They didn't have a real feud but I'll do my best in writing up an entry about the matches they had together.

Ted DiBiase vs Ultimate WarriorThese two have some history in the old Mid-South territory in the 80s but their most famous stuff happened in the WWF in the early 90s. First match being in Japan post Mania VI in which Warrior would defeat the money man in short order. Not surprising considering Warrior just won the belt a few weeks earlier. The next match from these two would be that Fall on the Main Event.This match is a hidden gem IMO.DiBiase made Warrior look good here and with that we got a very good match out of it.Loved the Savage post attack! From there they would be on opposite ends on the grand finale match of survival at SSeries thar year.The last time I can recall them in the ring together was SNME in late 92 when Money Inc. put up the belts against him and Savage.Nothing to write home on this one. Overall...Like Rude and Savage,DiBiase was a good opponent for Warrior I thought.Definitely check out their match together on the Main Event to see what I mean.

I agree, DiBiase had a few good matches with Warrior, his best being the one on SNME in 1990. Good short feud here, made Warrior look great and didn't diminish DiBiase in the least. Like, I loved the Savage attack here, really ramped up the feud between the two of them. Great stuff.

I was so pissed as a kid after that match at The Main Event lol. Macho King was a character that I loved to hate back then, even when he was a heel I thought he was awesome, until he came after the Warrior then I had really conflicting feelings. Ahh, to have characters that make you actually care about them again would be very nice indeed!
I always love to read stuff about the Warrior. He was my hero as a kid and I get he is not everyone's cup of tea, but the guy had far more good matches than people give him credit for. I think because of his personality people are always more willing to give his opponent the credit than him, but at some point even though it is in the ring against the likes of Savage, Rude, Dibiase and so on that the Warrior was doing his part in these matches too.

Also a suggestion and one that might be a bit different,
Roddy Piper vs Ric Flair I remember when Flair first came in and they had a little bit of a thing with them being on opposite sides at the 91 Survivor Series and then Roddy really going for him at the Royal Rumble. It could be nothing, but in my mind I always remember Roddy having it in for Ric Flair when he first came into the WWF. As I was just a WWF kid for the most part, I did not know if they had any major history before this.

Warrior vs Dibiase wasn’t a great feud. Dibiase would tell you that himself.

Ric Flair vs Roddy PiperBefore we get into the later years of this feud,I gotta give a shout out to their early years together in the Mid-Atlantic territory.They would feud over the US belt during this time and it's some really great stuff.Flair was already established with Piper clearly on the rise himself.I love going back and watching this. Now we head to a decade later and these two would cross paths again in the WWF.The first confrontation being on Superstars during the Fall of 91 in which Flair would attack Piper at the announce booth.I also believe this was the first bump Vince took on WWF TV.Great stuff here. This would lead to a match not long after in MSG.Bobby in the corner of Flair briefly during this time was a nice treat I might add. From there they would each lead a team into the SSeries with the end result being Flair being the soul survivor. That's flair to Flair! These two interactions in the match was great but I never liked the ending with Mountie.Dibiase, Bret and Virgil all getting DQed.The feud would culminate at the Rumble with these two in the ring for two minutes with Piper attacking Flair like a madman! Loved this. Heenan going nuts on commentary,Flair selling all just added to it. They would meet again in WCW during the late 90s and for the most part I enjoyed the first go round in 97 with them at first being buddy/buddy but then Flair turning on em to set up a match at BATB 97. The stuff they did together in 99 though...Terrible.The whole ''who will control WCW?'' stuff didnt click with me. Only positive was Piper turning heel after a good 13 years at GAB but other than that blah.Last but not least I gotta mention the little nostalgia run they got with the tag belts in late 06.Nice throwback to us older fans that I very much enjoyed. Overall...2 of my top 5 wrestlers of all time so instant thumbs up from me.

Good feud, I loved the attack on Piper and Vince - a great way to start a feud. I agree with you that the DQ of everyone but Flair at the survivor series was a bummer. Also a bummer, we never got a televised match between the two to get a proper ending to the feud. I am a little surprised they didn't televise their match at Tuesday in Texas it definitely would have been better than another Davey Boy vs Warlord match (no offense to the two but we had seen that match already). It also would have been cool to see the cage match between the two in 1992 when Flair was the WWF champion and Piper was the IC champion. This would have been a cool thing to see:

This would have been a cool thing to see: Yeah the feud went cold pretty much post SSeries. No idea why they couldn't blown it off at Tuesday in TX in a grudge match. As far as the cage match goes, I'm sure WWE has it in their vault but I doubt it sees the light of day unfortunately.Would love to see it.

Forgot to mention this gem segment. 1 week prior to Flair's WWF debut.

Piper was like the perfect feud for Flair to begin his WWF run with. Legit and high enough up the card to make Flair look the part of a Main Eventer without going right into a Hogan feud. Losing a Hogan feud would not kick start his run effectively.
The big elimination in that Survivor Series match does ruin a great match. That match went a really long time with barely any eliminations.

I thought they were great in 1991 and as others have said it's a shame we didn't get a televised pay off.
I would love to see that cage match!
