Guesses of others that will make the cut?

Stone Cold Vs The Rock
Triple H Vs HBK - 3 stages of hell match
John Cena Vs Edge - TLC match
John Cena Vs Randy Orton - Iron Man match
Randy Orton Vs Triple H - WM25 or last man standing match
Stone Cold Vs Vince?
Triple H Vs Vince? - Armageddon 1999

Undertaker v HBK - Bad Blood 1997 (first ever HIAC match). Could show that in a build up the their fued over WM 26 and 27.

Good shout, another I would add would be Undertaker Vs Kane, can't believe I forgot that first time round. So many examples there for matches too.

Ultimate Warriior v Macho King Randy Savage
The corperation v The ministry

Another 2 i can think of rivalry wise

Was Triple H v The Rock at Backlash in 2000 the ironman match or last man standing match?

Also, maybe a suggestion? Eddie Guerrero v JBL? or Cena v JBL for that matter.

HHH v the Rock (iron man match) was Judgement Day 2000 - The debut of The American Bad Ass

Wouldn't say Cena Vs JBL, it was what 1 or 2 matches, then a brief thing later. The rest of the rivalries were the ones recognised of their time. Eddie Vs JBL, but if Eddie gets in there Eddie Vs Rey.

It's got to have Sting vs Ric Flair in there
Savage vs Ric Flair
HBK vs Bret Hart
Bret Vs stone cold

can't believe I left the last 2 you put off as well.

Would many of Undertaker's WM opponents make the list? HBK should, but many others? Triple H so they have have the end of an era match on there and it appeals to newer fans...

The only other one I would say, would be Kane.

Also i can see Hogan vs Sting (WCW vs Nwo) being put in there too.

Even though they had a shite match, the Orton/HHH rivalry was brilliant.

Yeah Orton/HHH was a very good feud.
There's loads of great rivalries and it will be hard to pick a top 25.

One I would like to see in the list but can't see making it would be dynamite kid vs tiger mask from Japan, some really ground breaking matches.

Others I'd chuck in:

Edge vs Undertaker - brilliantly paced, some awesome matches, Vickie G at her best.

Undertaker vs Batista - one of the few times I actually cared about Dave.

MVP vs Matt Hardy - still to this day, the best midcard feud WWE have put together in years.

CM Punk vs Jeff Hardy - based in realism, some cracking matches, and one of my favourite heel moments ever when Punk nailed Jeff with the belt after Jeff's farewell speech on Smackdown.

Hogan vs Savage - a year in the making, brilliantly paced, epic.

Theyll probably have Batista vs HHH and the whole Evolution storyline.

Vince vs Austin will be on it definitely.

I know its been mentioned but Cena vs Orton and Cena vs Edge as well.

Id imagine theyll probably have some sort of mention of the Invasion as well, like a whole number dedicated to WWF vs WCW and then throw in a bit of ECW as well.

Chris Jericho vs Shawn Michaels has to be on it. Their ladder match and street fight were awesome.

One other I can think of is Undertaker vs Mankind. They had a long running feud in 1996 with some really good matches. And then of course they that Hell in a Cell match in 1998 as well.

Also possibly Jake the Snake vs Savage. from 1991. I don't really remember it that well but it had that bit with the snake biting Savage in the arm. It was pretty intense at the time and Jake was at his best as a heel.

People might moan about Cena getting to #12 but that was a cracking feud.

5th best since the mid/late 90's too, it would seem.

i'm surprised Orton Vs Cena didn't make it

Yup. One of the guys who's managed to get people to cheer John Cena at times.
