Golden Era·WWF·1989–1990

Jake The Snake Roberts vs. The Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase (Mar 1989 – Apr 1990)

Ted DiBiase, unable to buy or win the WWF Championship, unveiled his own self-sanctioned Million Dollar Championship and spent a year defending it against Jake Roberts, a program built around a kayfabe neck injury, a stolen belt zipped into a bag with a live python, and Big Boss Man's famous face-turning refusal to be bought, before DiBiase kept the belt on a count-out at WrestleMania VI.

Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig vs. The Texas Tornado Kerry Von Erich (Aug 1990 – Feb 1991)

A parasailing accident cost Brutus Beefcake his SummerSlam 1990 title shot, and the spot went instead to Kerry Von Erich, wrestling on a secret prosthetic foot and privately telling friends he wanted to die, who beat Mr. Perfect for the WWF Intercontinental Championship anyway.

Golden Era·WWF·1990–1991

Rick The Model Martel vs. Jake The Snake Roberts (Oct 1990 – Mar 1991)

Rick Martel blinded Jake Roberts with his Arrogance cologne on live television, setting up a six-month feud that culminated in one of the most polarizing gimmick matches in WrestleMania history: the Blindfold Match at WrestleMania VII.

Attitude Era·WCW·1996

The New World Order vs. WCW (May 1996 – Dec 1996)

Scott Hall's shock walk-in from the crowd on Nitro, Kevin Nash's arrival two weeks later, and Hulk Hogan's heel turn at Bash at the Beach launched an invasion angle built on real WWF contract jumps, turning WCW's Monday night ratings around and igniting the New World Order's first chaotic year against the promotion it claimed to be taking over.
