10 Real Life Wrestling Feuds Where Justice Was Delivered In The Ring

When real life collides with kayfabe, hold on to your hats!

Wrestling is a strange old business, one that attracts everyone from the ludicrously shy, to the unbelievably arrogant and outgoing. For some, watching wrestling was like going to church as a kid, whereas others simply fell into the industry through bodybuilding, acting or other means. Due to the wide cast of characters that wrestling attracts, there's always bound to be real-life animosity. Some people just don't see eye-to-eye, that's simply a fact of life, and isn't exclusive to the grappling business. Anytime people are expected to co-exist, there's always room for rivalry. Add to that mix the fact that wrestling relies on folks co-operating physically, and ego is bound to come into play. This list aims to look at 10 examples of aforementioned real-life frustrations boiling to the surface. Obviously, in the history of the industry, there have been literally hundreds of genuine scuffles and arguments, but these are some of the most prominent examples of when real heat was played out in front of millions. When it comes to honest-to-God rivalry, ones that exist long after the fans have went home and the cameras have stopped rolling, the general attitude in the wrestling business has always been to capitalise and make money from such bad blood. Sometimes, even that doesn't go to plan!
