Between the New Generation and the Attitude Era, World Wrestling Entertainment in the 1990s was a mixed bag insofar as talent and storylines. The company itself went through major upheaval, Hulk Hogan and Randy Savage giving way to Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels, with The Rock and Steve Austin closing out the decade. However, there was one thing that was truly consistent about WWE in that era, that being the consistently high level of in-ring action. Though WWE's roster was in upheaval, when Freddie Joe Floyd wrestled T.L. Hopper, it meant that territory era wrestling veterans Tracy Smothers and Tony Anthony were wrestling. Even given their less than ideal gimmicks, the match itself was never abjectly terrible, which was actually par for the course for much of the roster in that era. There are great wrestling feuds, like 1-2-3 Kid versus Razor Ramon or Shawn Michaels versus Marty Janetty that weren't in WWE's main event in the 1990s of which we as wrestling fans are all well aware. However, from groundbreaking tag team wrestling, to introducing international superstars, or just involving two veterans who know exactly what they're doing in the ring, there are definitely more than ten "feuds you totally forgot about" from the 1990s that were awesome. Here's ten of the best, though.
