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

10. Kevin Nash vs. Triple H

Maybe this is being viewed as an after-the-fact dream match, but if you look at the WCW and WWF rosters in 1998-2000, two guys stand out extremely connected main-eventers who were smartasses on the mic and had great hair. And those are just the superficial comparisons between Kevin Nash and Triple H. Both men held their promotion€™s world championship four times during that two-year period and had varying amounts of influence in how storylines were developed for them. Nash faded in and out as a booker, while Triple H (who wasn€™t yet in the McMahon clan) certainly had the boss€™ ear on many decisions (see the Montreal Screwjob). Both men were wisecracking performers who had become permanent top-shelf talent. And of course, both were good friends with each other and participated in the MSG Incident years earlier. Kliq members had a tendency to rise to the occasion when pitted against each other. They would put on solid, sometimes spectacular matches against each other, and a rising star in Triple H (hard to remember a time when that was the case) and established main-eventer like Nash could have done really well. A feud could have been booked around the MSG Incident and how Triple H was punished for everyone€™s actions, setting his career back somewhat. Fans would finally get a Nash-Triple H feud, but the 2003 pairing was a shadow of what could have been. Triple H was mired in a period where he seemingly put himself over everyone at the expense of good judgment, and Nash was well on the downswing of his in-ring career, hardly the dream match it would have been five years earlier.
