10 Dream WWF vs WCW Matches We All Had In The 90s

9. The Rock vs. Diamond Dallas Page

Call it €œThe Battle of the People€™s Champions.€ Everyone knows that The Rock constantly refers to himself as the People€™s Champion, but WCW fans will quickly point out that Diamond Dallas Page also carried the same moniker during his career. After a long struggle to improve as a worker and connect with the fans, Page began making strides, thanks in part to his explosive Diamond Cutter finisher. From there, his battle against the nWo -- and Randy Savage in particular -- in 1997 catapulted him to the top of the list of fan favorites. DDP would sometimes hit a Diamond Cutter on an adversary, then escape into the crowd before the rest of the nWo could grab him and flash the Diamond Cutter sign, with thousands of fans joining in. It was that connection with the fans that led announcers to dub him the People€™s Champion. Over in WWF, Rocky Maivia had a similar long road to hoe before he connected with the fans and rose to prominence as the northern promotion€™s version of the People€™s Champ. Of course, The Rock also became one of the biggest stars in the industry, so it€™s fair to see why he€™s remembered as the true People€™s Champion. Still, a contest in 1998 between the two, when Page was at his hottest and Rock was still climbing the ladder, would have been a money match.
