Vince Russo: 10 Dream Feuds I Would Have Booked

7. The Rock Vs Shawn Michaels

Shawn Michaels The Rock In doing a little research prior to writing this, I think the Rock and HBK may have actually had a match on RAW back in 1998. I was reading an article that stated that when Shawn came back to the WWE in 2002, Rock was approached and asked if he was interested in having a program with Michaels, and The Great One declined - at least that was according to HBK. Either way, the angle never happened. This feud right here, is deeply intriguing due to not only the in-ring action - they are both great competitors - but the back and forth promos leading up to the big match. Those face-to-face encounters would be MONEY, being that Rock and Michaels are no doubt in the top five of the greatest performers of all-time. As far as the match, I think from bell to bell Shawn would no doubt be the better wrestler - because he was - but, in my book, you just don€™t beat The Rock. ROCK OVER
