"FINALLY...

...Fal-Kon... HAS DE-buted, the FECS device!" [In memory of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson].

Many people maybe thinking, WTF is the FECS??? Well, since I created it & got some positive feedback from this [THANKYOU PSYCHOWARD... IF I DIDNT REP YOU FOR YOUR FEEDBACK PLEASE TELL ME & A LOT OF REP IS COMING YOUR WAY]... I thought I'd would tweak this into a thread series. FECS stand's for the Fued Epic Cream Scale. Basically, it measures & rates fueds that have occurred throughout the history of professional wrestling & its subgenres. It utilises a five star ratings system whereby 0 stars is the lowest rating meaning it is unrecognisable as a fued & 6 stars is the highest rating meaning it was truly something special & memorable that was executed with great booking, etc, etc.

For these threads, I basically provide you with what fued we will be discussing in the thread title, I brief everyone on the fued, give my opinion as it would be spamming otherwise & then whoever reads/wants to reply to this thread gives a rating as if you were the FECS device. Feel free to post comments about the fued in discussion if need be. After hopefully a healthy posting of votes in the poll, the real FECS device will calibrate your opinions with the evidence & if all goes well with the thread series, the next thread in the series I will post what the FECS device has ultimately decided & it will be set in stone.

I figured that if others where reviewing people/matches/gimmicks in a thread series were the finally answer is definitive [HHH-Hogan Effect's 'Whos Better', Slyfox's 'When all is said & done' & Mastadon Tentazord's... err well... idk if i should plug Tenta for his thread or blind people reading this post but... oh well... cover the women & childrens eyes if your afraid or sickened... the 'John Tenta Memorial for... Terrible Gimmicks'... just to name a few], why not do one about fueds?

Ohkay, let's get the thread rolling with the first fued I thought would create a big bang to the series which almost everybody knows of & can review...


The Trish Stratus/Mickie James fued


Surprised that my first thread in the series is a female fued... in particular the one in my sig??? No?... yes?... who cares FalKon? Most likely.

Mickie James debuted into the WWE after honing her craft using her ring name Alexis Laree in other wrestling promotions such as TNA. At the start, James was portrayed as Trish Stratus', arguably the best female wrestler the E has had, biggest fan. These two would form a bond in which Stratus would take James under her wing as she is very flattered by James, whom has helped Stratus in hostile situations. However, things were not going to stay as roses & butterflies like the fairy tales prescribe. It seems the butterfly would be severly mutilated by having their wings cut off & the thorns on the rose overtaking the petals.

As time goes by, Stratus would discover that James was her biggest fan for a reason. She was in love, actually meaning it when she loved Trish Stratus. It even got to the point where several lesbian-esque scenes evolved. After Trish consoled with her other friends like Ashley Massarro, she decided to break the relationship between the two, citing 'we need time alone.' But Stratus didnt see this one through, not noticing that there was a second reason as to why James was her biggest fan. Just like Jimmy McElroy's stalker Hector in the 2007 comedy film "Blades of Glory," James was a psychopath that would do absolutely anything to garner the respect from Stratus. However, the 'we need time alone' line affected James, becoming the severly mutilated butterfly in the fued. The thorn of the roses would be unleashed as the wrath & scorn that came from James.

This ultimately cultimated in an epic match between these two female competitors at WrestleMania 22 for the Women's Championship. Hence the reason why the FECS device has chosen this fued as a possible candidate to review. Here is the WM22 match for those that are interested reliving the moment:

BTW, WWE edited the part where she made the :la: sign to garner more audience support due to the "vulgarity" of the sign & the actual volume of the building during the match. For those who remember, there was a hell of lot more cheers & loudness for James where no-one cared & booed the holy crap out of Trish.

Unfortunately, the fued was cut short at Backlash where Stratus suffered a legit injury during her match & Creative decided that they should no long keep James as a female psychopath, but the diva/entertainer every other female wrestler in the E is today... very unfortunate. This is where the FECS decides the end of the fued rests.


There is a little history for y'all. I know I missed some stuff but I'm giving an overview. The real issue now is how do you rate the fued if you were the FECS.

Personally, I would rate this fued 5 stars. It was booked very well for a female fued/storyline. It wasnt afraid to go there when it needed & didnt go over the top like the Torrie Wilson/Sable thing on SmackDown [even thought the FECS device creamed itself... how does a machine even do that?]. It actually garnered interest, besides the eye candy aspect, from fans & even earned the main event on RAW where the TV recordings actually ended with the women!!! A very special fued that will always earn a place in my heart until I die, right next to the HBK vs. Taker match @ WM26. However, due to the rivalry being cut short due to an unfortunate injury, the WM22 match not being long enough & creative's decision to turn psychopathic James into rehabiliated James... it does not earn the coveted 6 star rating, but very, very close. A solidly performed fued that could have gone longer.

Now, I need your votes & thoughts...



P.S. - Is this a good thread series to build & keep the ball rolling with. Would appreciate any support I can get at the moment for this. Very skeptical of the FECS idea but I think the basis of fued measuring should go well. Is it ohkay???

Also, if the thread series continues... it may end up in different areas of WZ forums as I will not just review WWE fueds but WCW, ECW, TNA, etc. as well. Basically the best of the best only...
 
I give this feud 6 stars definitely. This had to have been one of the most intense and well planned feuds between any two divas ever in the history of WWE.
 
i absolutely loved this feud and it actually made me fall in love with mickie james character (i wish they would bring this character back cause it was really good )the match itself was really great i was there @ wrestlemania 22 cheering which made it better but it was really sad to see it end tsk tsk it would be a while before we see a feud lik this again involving 2 divas
