=======================================================
#1. TITLE OF ANGLE: FINALLY
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are slated to have a match. In this match, they fight to a time limit draw or Double Disqualification/Count-Out. (I believe WCW's old TV time limit was fifteen minutes.) The GM or Commissioner then declares that, since there was no clear winner, Wrestler A and Wrestler B would meet again next week.
Next week comes, and Wrestler B comes out to the ring, only for the Tron to flare to life and find that Wrestler A is stuck in some airport somewhere, unable to make it to the match. Shenanigans like this continue for several weeks, odd circumstances not allowing the one-on-one match to go down, until finally--hence the name of the angle--the two square off at the PPV.
#2. TITLE OF ANGLE: [INSERT TEAM NAME HERE] PROTECTION AGENCY
A team decides that, since they are so damned good at what they do, they'll offer their services to other wrestlers as freelance bodyguards, hitmen, or gatewatchers... Whatever their clients need, for the appropriate price. They need this money to: buy beer or soda, pay rent, send their niece or nephew through school, finish off their mother's doctor bills, etc.
#3. TITLE OF ANGLE: YER BASIC SHOOT PROJECT
Wrestler A starts mentioning Wrestler B in his promos, very sparingly and not in a good light. Wrestler B takes offense to this, but doesn't make a big deal about it; he just uses Wrestler A's tactics against him, dropping his name ever so often in a derogatory fashion. The verbal quips just get worse and worse until the two finally have a confrontation, centering around why they don't like each other. (Great for two heels.)
A push, a shove, and it's on. These two wrestlers, no matter where they are, will start to brawl because they hate each other THAT much. Announcers and narrators could play the feud off as, there are boundaries in wrestling and Wrestler A and Wrestler B have stepped over the line from wrestling to real life. This works especially well if the verbal attacks are related more to how each other lives and what they do with their lives outside of wrestling, than the wrestlers' own careers, and perhaps some (pre-planned) OOC remarks passed off in-character.
This, of course, leads to a climactic series of matches where everybody's paying attention because (a) the wrestlers are embroiled in a blood feud and (B) nobody's really certain if the people writing the characters actually hate each other or not. It's a dangerous angle to run, but it can be rewarding.

#4. TITLE OF ANGLE: BROTHERS?
Wrestler A and B have a feud for a while, and then it's revealed that they're actually brothers! They either continue to feud, or the feud ends and they team up.
#5. TITLE OF ANGLE: HANDS OFF MY SISTER!
Wrestler A takes a liking to Wrestler B's sister. Wrestler B doesn't like it.
Tom Mason
#6. TITLE OF ANGLE: POWER STRUGGLE
Whether it be a Owner, President, Vice President, Commissioner, General Manager, etc., someone wants to gain more power in the company. This may start over a sour comment, or just greed.This leads to a Staff vs. Staff competition to sign talent, outdo the other in match signings, and in most cases a one-on-one encounter between the two staff members.

#7. TITLE OF ANGLE: SIMPLE TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION
Members of a tag team start to miscommunicate in the ring. Whether it be untimely blind tags, accidental Clotheslines, or not being there to break up a pinfall, the teammates start to get irritated with one another and the tension builds until neither can take it and the whole thing erupts in blows. (And subsequent feud.)
#8. TITLE OF ANGLE: TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION W/ STRUGGLE OVER MANAGER
Same as SIMPLE TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION, except the former teammates get caught in a power struggle for the services of their manager/valet, as well. The feud becomes more focused on appropriating the manager/valet with money, gifts, or other promises rather than on the two wrestlers' dislike of one another, and usually ends with a "Winner Gets So-and-So's Services" match.
#9. TITLE OF ANGLE: MANAGER BETRAYAL!
A wrestler's manager betrays him to a rival, because he: wasn't appreciated enough, didn't make enough money, was tired of being pushed around, it was part of a diabolical master plan from the start. Or, if the manager's a female valet type, because she: didn't think he was "big" enough, caught her wrestler cheating on her with another woman (possibly another valet to start a cat fight feud), or was just an evil bitch who was tired of her plaything.

#10. TITLE OF ANGLE: SINGLE WHITE WRESTLER!
Wrestler A becomes Wrestler B's biggest fan, attends all his matches at ringside, starts to copy his moves and even his outfits, and doesn't get discourages when Wrestler A gets upset. Then, at a key moment, Wrestler B decides he's better at being Wrestler A than Wrestler A is, and decides to replace him. But had to take him out first, leading to big match.

#11. TITLE OF ANGLE: SUPER POWERS!!!~!!!!!
A generic wrestler has had slight success in the past, but for months they have been doing terribly and jobbing like crazy. They feel that there is something wrong with them so they do whatever they can (new attire, different matches, different diets, more training, etc...) to try and get their game back. Finally they do something extremely drastic (jump off a building, eat a lot of pill mixtures, drink only Dr. Pepper for weeks, get hitby lightning, etc...) and gain SUPER POWERS!!!~!!!!!
Sidenote: If you don't think this will work, Twizzy is my most popular character and did this angle exactly. It was beautiful.

#12. TITLE OF ANGLE: Start your Own Heel Academy
It worked for me.

#13. TITLE OF ANGLE: MYSTERY ASSAILANT
Wrestler A repeatedly gets attacked by a mystery assailant. Boxes thrown from high places, baseball bat shots from the dark, house set on fire, whatever. Wrestler B, a friend of Wrestler A, tries to help A discover the identity of the assailant, only B turns out to be the assailant all along, caught on security camera.
#14. TITLE OF ANGLE: YOO-GENE
A wrestler is ordered by the GM or Commissioner to look after his or her nephew, niece, daughter, son, or mentally challenged relative, at the threat of their job. Hijinx ensues as the nephew, neice, daughter, etc. is a trouble maker, or always winds up in strange and possibly dangerous situations.

#15. TITLE OF ANGLE: PROTEGE TURNS RIVAL

Bandia
#17: Title of Angle: It's me!
Wrestler A develops a back problem and no longer is able to do his usual style of high flying moves and must now move more to a technical moveset. While doing this, Wrestler B, who is a great technical wrestler, decides to poke fun at Wrestler A. Soon, after weeks of badgering, they square off in the ring and Wrestler B hurts Wrestler A somehow by a submission. This causes Wrestler A to miss a few months of action, while the boys in the company kind of shun Wrestler B as he develops into the top heel, yet very few people will now work for him because since hurting Wrestler A, he has become a very stiff wrestler. A masked wrestler that has been in the fed ever since Wrestler A started trying to change his wrestling style decides to step up to Wrestler B's challenge for the next PPV...a shoot fight match.
At the PPV, the masked wrestler unmasks and is revealed to be Wrestler A, with good technical skills, or at least enough to go toe to toe with Wrestler B. In the match, its quite brutal but Wrestler B ends up winning.
Chris Storm
#18 Religion
Wrestler A interupts Wrestler B while B is doing his trademark pray, sermon, etc. Wrestler B yells at Wrestler A but gets brushed off. Wrestler B either beats up Wrestler A or has goons do it.

Next week Wrestler B says he will sacrific Wrestler A or some such thing. Wrestler A blows him off.
Next few weeks Wrestler B messes with Wrestler A and teases beat downs but never actually touching him, saying he will wait until the moment is right.
-Games can include blood on walls, animal parts in dressing room, caskets or such brought to the ring, tombstones with his name on it. Lights going on and off while he's trying to do his entrance for a match.
Wrestler A gets Owner to book a match against Wrestler B. Later Wrestler B is seen coming out of Owner's office and goes to the ring and announces special stip for the PPV match (Casket, Inferno, Buried Alive, etc.)
At PPV Wrestler A is on last nerve. Wrestler B threats something close to Wrestler A causing Wrestler A to build courage and have a back and forth match until some how Wrestler B wins. Evil wins over Good.

#22. TITLE OF ANGLE: I HAD SEX WITH YOUR MOM... AND LIKED IT!
This angle would practically write itself. Just steal material from the American Pie movies.
"Motherfucker."
"Yes I am."
Jamester
#23. TITLE OF ANGLE: TAG TEAM TURMOIL.
Wrestler A and Wrestler B team up because they aren't doing well in singles competition. Wrestler A tells Wrestler B they are the best and they'll prove it by dominating every tag team. Wrestler A and B beat a few teams letting their egos become bigger by each win. Finally when given the shot to face the #1 contenders of the tag belts, Wrestler A says he's so good he could beat the team himself. Wrestler B is discouraged and says 'fine go do it'. When Wrestler A is wrestling the #1 contenders he is about to win when Wrestler B interupts and hits him with his finisher. He lets Wrestler A get pinned and then the two break up.
Wrestler B states Wrestler A was holding him back, and that the only reason they were good was because of him. During Wrestler B's match for that night Wrestler A attacks Wrestler B causing him to lose, Wrestler B says if he wants to fight him then do it like a man.
Wrestler B and Wrestler A fight one another on normal card, and when the #1 contenders come out to help Wrestler B, Wrestler A and B team up and beat up the #1 contenders showing it was all a set up. Wrestler A and B beat the #1 contenders up so bad they can't wrestle for the tag titles, and so the Wrestler A and B get the shot and win.
Wrestler A and B use the tag titles to cause the company to focus on them. They make a mockery of all the Tag Teams and begin to form a stable of the elite men they can find. Being they are the trouble making heel type, they fine the biggest, baddest, most arrogant bastards in the company.
The stable consists of Wrestler A, B, C, and D. A and B tag champs, C being a cruiserweight, and D being the Body Guard type. Wrestler A and B make Wrestler C and D form up and take on new challengers, slowly making the unnatured team grow a reputation and wipe out the champions challengers. In doing so the group of Wrestler C and D become #1 contenders and the stable fights begin.
Wrestler A tells Wrestler C to let him win, or he's out of the stable and going to be out of his misery. Wrestler C says we'll see about that. Wrestlers A and B fight Wrestlers C and D, having an all out brawl, and in the end A and B win with cheating tactics, but the group is attacked by all the challengers of the tag division causing complete chaos, and in the end the Tag Champs have to defend their titles in a battle royal, winners being new champs. This is where you take on the angle...
jeremiahvedder
#24. TITLE OF ANGLE: DRUNKEN VIOLENCE
Wrestler A has an incredibly bad week. Just, horrible things keep happening to him over and over and over again, and he begins to crack. Wrestler A turns to alcohol in order to drown his sorrows, while Wrestler B, his friend, tries to keep him clean. Think Scott Hall/Kevin Nash. Wrestler A makes some really f'ed up decisions and starts screwing over Wrestler B, until Wrestler B finally says, "Fine! If I'm going to have to beat the sense back into you, I will!!!!" And then, they have a big PPV match or some such. The angle could continue after that, but eventually there's gotta be a hook where Wrestler A either finds redemption or his way to the retirement line somehow.
Chris Storm
#25- Old School vs. New School
Wrestler A has been in the league for a while and starts calling himself one of the old school guys. Wrestler B joins and shows potential but can't seem to get any big matches while Wrestler A is always upper mid or main eventing. Wrestler B accusing Wrestler A of holding back all the new school guys.
Wrestler A challenges Wrestler B to a match and wins. After the match Wrestler B challengers Wrestler A to stipulation match (Ladder, Table, etc) and next week wins.
Wrestler A rips on Wrestler B for taking away from the sport of wrestling and having no respect for it. Wrestler B rips on Wrestler A for having an iron grip on the sport and not letting new talent have any spotlight.
Wrestler B talks to other wrestlers about Wrestler A being a problem backstage. When Wrestler A is wrestling Wrestler C in a match Wrestler B interferes and attacks. Wrestler B & C double team Wrestler A. They align against him as (New Breed, Young Blood, etc).
Next week in a handicap match Wrestler A is facing Wrestler B & C and Wrestler D appears and helps Wrestler A win.
Next week is a tag match and Wrestler B & C wins. Continuing the assualt after the match.
Next week they mock Wrestler A & D by riding around in wheelchairs and pretending to be very old. Wrestler A & D appear to attack them. The owner announces Wrestler A will face Wrestler B at the PPV and Wrestler C will face Wrestler D at the PPV.
Whoever is doing better work and such wins.
SeanLuc
#26. TITLE OF ANGLE: THE MASKED WARRIOR
Two wrestlers have a bit of a rivalry. For a couple of weeks, Wrestler A is accosted by a masked wrestler. The masked wrestler is absolutely adamant about not being Wrestler B, and Wrestler B is adamant about not being the masked wrestler. Wrestler A fights masked wrestler and lo, masked wrestler does Wrestler B's signature move, and unmasks revealing Wrestler B!
This angle is hilarious if the masked guy is a complete mockery.
Could also work if the masked wrestler is in fact Wrestler C, who may or may not have been in cahoots with Wrestler B from the beginning. Plenty of room for variation.
tsteel
#27- Wrestler A vs Wrestler B&C
Wrestler A gets screwed over again and again by Wrestler A&C. Wrestler A faces wrestler B at the PPV. Wrestler C comes out with a chair and sings it at Wrestler A. He ducks and it hits Wrestler B. Wrestler A gets the win because of it. Then Wrestler B&C hate each other. They feud until the next PPV.
Havoc
#28- Forced Management
An older more recognised wrestler (perhaps once retired) is forced to manage a young newcomer to the game with potential and they don't like it.
The youngster is cocky and arrogant and already feels that he knows more about the game than his mentor can teach him. Unfortunately other influential players in this angle (owners, mafia, etc) don't agree and therefore the veteran wrestler has to teach this youngster against his will under threat of death/firing.
This leads to various situations where there is a disagreement between manager and wrestler but resolves have to be made. And also various situations where threats become very close to being carried out.
Can tale off into any direction with either the manager or wrestler eventually coming out on top after an eventual match-up etc. Or can end up eventually getting along and finding that they are both better as a team, thus forming a friendship and/or tag team.
SeanLuc
#29. TITLE OF ANGLE: GUY IN THE CROWD
A wrestler is harrassed by a fan, week after week. Eventually a match is made between wrestler and fan (a basic accepted challenge, or some more creative manner).
Bare-bones, but that's the beauty of this thread. Plenty of room to make it your own. An angle extending on this premise was played very well over the last month in NAFW, by Dave, handler of Keith Owens.
DJ Gallagher
#30. TITLE OF ANGLE: CHEATING DEATH
A wrestler becomes stale in his current gimmick and loses a string of matches. Eventually, he reaches a breaking point and disappears. When he's next seen again, he kills himself in an over-the-top dramatic style.
The next week (or month, whatever time period you see fit), the wrestler appears again with a brand new gimmick, spurred on by faking his own death. This angle usually transitions a mega babyface into a monster heel.

#32: TITLE OF ANGLE: Good versus Evil
Wrestler B has died in a freak accident, or has died in a strange occurance. After a few months, Wrestler A starts to act strangely in some of his matches, like someone has taken over his body. Soon, Wrestler A is consumed by Wrestler B's soul. Wrestler A is basically Wrestler B reincarnated.

#43: VOTE HULK HOGAN FOR PRESIDENT

#47 HERBIE THE LOVE CART
A wrestler's golf cart suddenly seems to gain consciousness, talking to random passersby. It turns out that the golf cart has a walkie talkie stashed inside it, and the wrestler is using it to spy on people. It sounds fucking retarded on paper, but there's a million directions you could go with something as off the wall as that.
A PARTICULAR GREY CHIHUAHUA
#48 YOU TRAITOR
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are a tag team, and are documented as being best of friends. Wrestler A has suffered a mental breakdown recently and Wrestler B helped him/her get back on their feet. Teaming together seems to have brought out a new strength in the previously broken Wrestler A, and the two of them storm through the tag team ranks.
Eventually, they fight for the titles and win, resulting in a glorious run as champions. Wrestler A states that Wrestler B was his/her inspiration to come back and do this. A lot of focus on the relationship between these two would be very effective.
However, on one night the champions lose the titles, thanks to a miscalculation/loss on the part of Wrestler B. He/she is crushed at losing, but Wrestler A informs him/her that everything is okay, and they'll team together again. And so the following show they do so in another tag team match, possibly a rematch for the titles.
But all of a sudden, when Wrestler B is in trouble in the ring, Wrestler A heads inside and hits his/her finishing move on Wrestler B. He/she then urges their opponent to make the cover, and exits the ring, leaving Wrestler B to lose the match and receive a beatdown at the hands of the opponents.
Wrestler A would then state that Wrestler B was at fault for ruining their run at tag team gold, and would go on to antagonise a confused Wrestler B for a few weeks. It would make Wrestler B appear very sympathetic. Eventually the feud will boil down to them fighting each other at a PPV, with either Wrestler B trying to reason with his/her former partner, or taking out his/her aggression for the betrayal.
From there, it could go in a whole bunch of directions.
#49 MOPPY
A wrestler, during a match, has his/her head slammed into the ringpost extremely hard/is hit by a steel chair with a lot of force. They are pinned by their opponent, having been clearly knocked unconscious. Head blows like these will continue for a long time.
Then, one week, the wrestler will seem totally out of it. Completely unbalanced. They will start doing airplane motions in the ring, and acquire an inanimate object (preferably a household item like a mop) that they will talk to and treat like a person.
Hey, it worked for Perry Saturn, right?
#50 THE LEGEND OF WRESTLER
A wrestler starts wearing green garments and wields a sword in the ring. He also wears fake elf ears and a hat. In his interviews, he informs his opponents that he will protect the Triforce of Wisdom from them by sending them back to the evil wizard Ganon using his mighty blade.
He will ride to the ring on a steed, and in matches he will break jars over the heads of his opponents and throw bombs at them. He'll then smile and put his hands on his hips, laughing at his downed opponent as the referee calls for the disqualification. He will never win another match again for the rest of his career.
Alex
#51: I AM SPARTACUS
Wrestler A takes on a mask for some reason or another, and a long-time rival in Wrestler B is out to expose him. Inexplicably, a legion of wrestlers dressed identically to Wrestler A in his masked gear appear at a time when Wrestler B is calling him out, and it's up to Wrestler B to take them all down to find out which one is really B.
#52: THE SPORTSMAN'S BET
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are watching a football game on TV and get into an argument over who was the best quarterback in high school. The encounter gets so heated that they can't settle it themselves, so they agree to form two five-man teams with themselves as the quarterbacks and have a face-off to decide who has the better arm once-and-for-all. Possibilities: The wrestlers could go around trying to recruit other wrestlers or football players for their teams, which could be spaced out over several weeks if done properly. Then, you can have the game, a friendly game of flag football that turns violent as both teams begin brawling amidst the game... While the game's still going on!
#53. The Crush
Wrestler A gets a crush on (female) Wrestler B. They date, etc., etc. Heel Wrestler C tries to take Wrestler B from A, fued insues.
Or Wrestler B betrays Wrestler A and has horribly graphic monkey sex with Wrestler C.
#54 - Give me back my f!%^&* belt!
Two or more wrestlers meet for a title, ending with one of the heels in the match getting pinned either losing, or failing to gain the title at stake. This doesn't sit well with the heel, and as the victor is cellebrating he blindsides him, beats him down and steals his belt off of him. For the next few weeks the champion desparately tries to get his belt back off his defeated opponent, only to fail repeatedly - snatching back toy replicas, briefly geting it back only to be cheap shot by an associate of the defeated challenger, and the like. if more than one person was involved in the original match then they too can be added to the feud, stealling it off of the original thief. This eventually ends in a rematch at the next big show, where the belt is put up for grabs in a ladder match (or similar).
This also works with other personal objects (I believe Angle/Benoit did this with Angle's medals), although a title belt is more fun. The whole 'champion who may never actually get to wear his belt thing is pretty compelling
#55 - Wrestler Is Stabbed
(Okay, we did this in a fed while I was on holiday and it seemed to go down really well.)
Wrestler A promises that he can come back and cause a ruckus in a fed he has recently returned to, where he was originally a well established wrestler. In his first match back, he faces another established character, Wrestler B. As he's about to partake in a match with Wrestler B, Wrestler A is stabbed by an currenly unknown Wrestler C.
For the next few shows there's a running storyline where all possible stabbers are question, although, a week before Wrestler A returns, Wrestler C is revealed and Wrestler B pays him his money. The week Wrestler A returns, he goes looking for Wrestler B and C and eventually they brawl, with A winning.
Then, at the PPV, there is a triple threat match between all three, where Wrestler A wins.
#56 - Who's your daddy?
Wrestler B (Usually the heel) mentions that Wrestler A's manager/wife/any female supporting character and he had a fling a while back. Well, it turns out Wrestler A has a kid with said supporting character, and the time frame fits - suddenly it's up in the air as to who the kid's father is. While Wrestler A reacts with rage, Wrestler B doesn't fight back until Wrestler C threatens the kid, at which point he starts screaming "Get your hands off my child!"
Cue a couple of segments, including possibly one Custody Match (the way my heel character did it was to let Wrestler A win that match out of "honor"), and finally, DNA testing. Have the DNA testing turn out either way, but if it's A's kid, then B can snap and beat the living ©Èѧخ out of him, which is always fun.
#57 - Rookie Sensation
Wrestler A is an young independant sensation. Wrestler A gets promted to a large company and Wrestler B (heel) is the champ of this company. Wrestler B welcomes wrestler A by saying something like " You will never be on my level, this is the big times rookie" Wrestler A strings together six or seven wins, including former champions, and a comment is made by an announcer or any staff member that wrestler B may be wrong about Wrestler A. Wrestler B then watches Wrestler A's matches from ringside is quickly disgustes after three or four wins. Wrestler B says he will put the title up if wrestler A can beat Wrestler C (heel's friend). With the odds against him wrestler A somehow beats wrestler C and gets his title match. Wrestler A then wins the title and proves he isnt just hype or Wrestler B cheats to win and brags about how he was right about wrestler A not being able to handle the big leagues.
#1. TITLE OF ANGLE: FINALLY
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are slated to have a match. In this match, they fight to a time limit draw or Double Disqualification/Count-Out. (I believe WCW's old TV time limit was fifteen minutes.) The GM or Commissioner then declares that, since there was no clear winner, Wrestler A and Wrestler B would meet again next week.
Next week comes, and Wrestler B comes out to the ring, only for the Tron to flare to life and find that Wrestler A is stuck in some airport somewhere, unable to make it to the match. Shenanigans like this continue for several weeks, odd circumstances not allowing the one-on-one match to go down, until finally--hence the name of the angle--the two square off at the PPV.
#2. TITLE OF ANGLE: [INSERT TEAM NAME HERE] PROTECTION AGENCY
A team decides that, since they are so damned good at what they do, they'll offer their services to other wrestlers as freelance bodyguards, hitmen, or gatewatchers... Whatever their clients need, for the appropriate price. They need this money to: buy beer or soda, pay rent, send their niece or nephew through school, finish off their mother's doctor bills, etc.
#3. TITLE OF ANGLE: YER BASIC SHOOT PROJECT
Wrestler A starts mentioning Wrestler B in his promos, very sparingly and not in a good light. Wrestler B takes offense to this, but doesn't make a big deal about it; he just uses Wrestler A's tactics against him, dropping his name ever so often in a derogatory fashion. The verbal quips just get worse and worse until the two finally have a confrontation, centering around why they don't like each other. (Great for two heels.)
A push, a shove, and it's on. These two wrestlers, no matter where they are, will start to brawl because they hate each other THAT much. Announcers and narrators could play the feud off as, there are boundaries in wrestling and Wrestler A and Wrestler B have stepped over the line from wrestling to real life. This works especially well if the verbal attacks are related more to how each other lives and what they do with their lives outside of wrestling, than the wrestlers' own careers, and perhaps some (pre-planned) OOC remarks passed off in-character.
This, of course, leads to a climactic series of matches where everybody's paying attention because (a) the wrestlers are embroiled in a blood feud and (B) nobody's really certain if the people writing the characters actually hate each other or not. It's a dangerous angle to run, but it can be rewarding.

#4. TITLE OF ANGLE: BROTHERS?

#6. TITLE OF ANGLE: POWER STRUGGLE
Whether it be a Owner, President, Vice President, Commissioner, General Manager, etc., someone wants to gain more power in the company. This may start over a sour comment, or just greed.This leads to a Staff vs. Staff competition to sign talent, outdo the other in match signings, and in most cases a one-on-one encounter between the two staff members.

#7. TITLE OF ANGLE: SIMPLE TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION
Members of a tag team start to miscommunicate in the ring. Whether it be untimely blind tags, accidental Clotheslines, or not being there to break up a pinfall, the teammates start to get irritated with one another and the tension builds until neither can take it and the whole thing erupts in blows. (And subsequent feud.)
#8. TITLE OF ANGLE: TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION W/ STRUGGLE OVER MANAGER
Same as SIMPLE TAG TEAM DISSOLUTION, except the former teammates get caught in a power struggle for the services of their manager/valet, as well. The feud becomes more focused on appropriating the manager/valet with money, gifts, or other promises rather than on the two wrestlers' dislike of one another, and usually ends with a "Winner Gets So-and-So's Services" match.
#9. TITLE OF ANGLE: MANAGER BETRAYAL!
A wrestler's manager betrays him to a rival, because he: wasn't appreciated enough, didn't make enough money, was tired of being pushed around, it was part of a diabolical master plan from the start. Or, if the manager's a female valet type, because she: didn't think he was "big" enough, caught her wrestler cheating on her with another woman (possibly another valet to start a cat fight feud), or was just an evil bitch who was tired of her plaything.

#11. TITLE OF ANGLE: SUPER POWERS!!!~!!!!!
A generic wrestler has had slight success in the past, but for months they have been doing terribly and jobbing like crazy. They feel that there is something wrong with them so they do whatever they can (new attire, different matches, different diets, more training, etc...) to try and get their game back. Finally they do something extremely drastic (jump off a building, eat a lot of pill mixtures, drink only Dr. Pepper for weeks, get hitby lightning, etc...) and gain SUPER POWERS!!!~!!!!!
Sidenote: If you don't think this will work, Twizzy is my most popular character and did this angle exactly. It was beautiful.

#13. TITLE OF ANGLE: MYSTERY ASSAILANT
Wrestler A repeatedly gets attacked by a mystery assailant. Boxes thrown from high places, baseball bat shots from the dark, house set on fire, whatever.

#17: Title of Angle: It's me!
Wrestler A develops a back problem and no longer is able to do his usual style of high flying moves and must now move more to a technical moveset. While doing this, Wrestler B, who is a great technical wrestler, decides to poke fun at Wrestler A. Soon, after weeks of badgering, they square off in the ring and Wrestler B hurts Wrestler A somehow by a submission. This causes Wrestler A to miss a few months of action, while the boys in the company kind of shun Wrestler B as he develops into the top heel, yet very few people will now work for him because since hurting Wrestler A, he has become a very stiff wrestler. A masked wrestler that has been in the fed ever since Wrestler A started trying to change his wrestling style decides to step up to Wrestler B's challenge for the next PPV...a shoot fight match.
At the PPV, the masked wrestler unmasks and is revealed to be Wrestler A, with good technical skills, or at least enough to go toe to toe with Wrestler B. In the match, its quite brutal but Wrestler B ends up winning.

Wrestler A gets Owner to book a match against Wrestler B. Later Wrestler B is seen coming out of Owner's office and goes to the ring and announces special stip for the PPV match (Casket, Inferno, Buried Alive, etc.)
At PPV Wrestler A is on last nerve. Wrestler B threats something close to Wrestler A causing Wrestler A to build courage and have a back and forth match until some how Wrestler B wins. Evil wins over Good.

#23. TITLE OF ANGLE: TAG TEAM TURMOIL.
Wrestler A and Wrestler B team up because they aren't doing well in singles competition. Wrestler A tells Wrestler B they are the best and they'll prove it by dominating every tag team. Wrestler A and B beat a few teams letting their egos become bigger by each win. Finally when given the shot to face the #1 contenders of the tag belts, Wrestler A says he's so good he could beat the team himself. Wrestler B is discouraged and says 'fine go do it'. When Wrestler A is wrestling the #1 contenders he is about to win when Wrestler B interupts and hits him with his finisher. He lets Wrestler A get pinned and then the two break up.
Wrestler B states Wrestler A was holding him back, and that the only reason they were good was because of him. During Wrestler B's match for that night Wrestler A attacks Wrestler B causing him to lose, Wrestler B says if he wants to fight him then do it like a man.
Wrestler B and Wrestler A fight one another on normal card, and when the #1 contenders come out to help Wrestler B, Wrestler A and B team up and beat up the #1 contenders showing it was all a set up. Wrestler A and B beat the #1 contenders up so bad they can't wrestle for the tag titles, and so the Wrestler A and B get the shot and win.
Wrestler A and B use the tag titles to cause the company to focus on them. They make a mockery of all the Tag Teams and begin to form a stable of the elite men they can find. Being they are the trouble making heel type, they fine the biggest, baddest, most arrogant bastards in the company.
The stable consists of Wrestler A, B, C, and D. A and B tag champs, C being a cruiserweight, and D being the Body Guard type. Wrestler A and B make Wrestler C and D form up and take on new challengers, slowly making the unnatured team grow a reputation and wipe out the champions challengers. In doing so the group of Wrestler C and D become #1 contenders and the stable fights begin.
Wrestler A tells Wrestler C to let him win, or he's out of the stable and going to be out of his misery. Wrestler C says we'll see about that. Wrestlers A and B fight Wrestlers C and D, having an all out brawl, and in the end A and B win with cheating tactics, but the group is attacked by all the challengers of the tag division causing complete chaos, and in the end the Tag Champs have to defend their titles in a battle royal, winners being new champs. This is where you take on the angle...
jeremiahvedder
#24. TITLE OF ANGLE: DRUNKEN VIOLENCE
Wrestler A has an incredibly bad week. Just, horrible things keep happening to him over and over and over again, and he begins to crack. Wrestler A turns to alcohol in order to drown his sorrows, while Wrestler B, his friend, tries to keep him clean. Think Scott Hall/Kevin Nash. Wrestler A makes some really f'ed up decisions and starts screwing over Wrestler B, until Wrestler B finally says, "Fine! If I'm going to have to beat the sense back into you, I will!!!!" And then, they have a big PPV match or some such. The angle could continue after that, but eventually there's gotta be a hook where Wrestler A either finds redemption or his way to the retirement line somehow.
Chris Storm
#25- Old School vs. New School
Wrestler A has been in the league for a while and starts calling himself one of the old school guys. Wrestler B joins and shows potential but can't seem to get any big matches while Wrestler A is always upper mid or main eventing. Wrestler B accusing Wrestler A of holding back all the new school guys.
Wrestler A challenges Wrestler B to a match and wins. After the match Wrestler B challengers Wrestler A to stipulation match (Ladder, Table, etc) and next week wins.
Wrestler A rips on Wrestler B for taking away from the sport of wrestling and having no respect for it. Wrestler B rips on Wrestler A for having an iron grip on the sport and not letting new talent have any spotlight.
Wrestler B talks to other wrestlers about Wrestler A being a problem backstage. When Wrestler A is wrestling Wrestler C in a match Wrestler B interferes and attacks. Wrestler B & C double team Wrestler A. They align against him as (New Breed, Young Blood, etc).
Next week in a handicap match Wrestler A is facing Wrestler B & C and Wrestler D appears and helps Wrestler A win.
Next week is a tag match and Wrestler B & C wins. Continuing the assualt after the match.
Next week they mock Wrestler A & D by riding around in wheelchairs and pretending to be very old. Wrestler A & D appear to attack them. The owner announces Wrestler A will face Wrestler B at the PPV and Wrestler C will face Wrestler D at the PPV.
Whoever is doing better work and such wins.
SeanLuc
#26. TITLE OF ANGLE: THE MASKED WARRIOR
Two wrestlers have a bit of a rivalry. For a couple of weeks, Wrestler A is accosted by a masked wrestler. The masked wrestler is absolutely adamant about not being Wrestler B, and Wrestler B is adamant about not being the masked wrestler. Wrestler A fights masked wrestler and lo, masked wrestler does Wrestler B's signature move, and unmasks revealing Wrestler B!
This angle is hilarious if the masked guy is a complete mockery.
Could also work if the masked wrestler is in fact Wrestler C, who may or may not have been in cahoots with Wrestler B from the beginning. Plenty of room for variation.
tsteel
#27- Wrestler A vs Wrestler B&C
Wrestler A gets screwed over again and again by Wrestler A&C. Wrestler A faces wrestler B at the PPV. Wrestler C comes out with a chair and sings it at Wrestler A. He ducks and it hits Wrestler B. Wrestler A gets the win because of it. Then Wrestler B&C hate each other. They feud until the next PPV.
Havoc
#28- Forced Management
An older more recognised wrestler (perhaps once retired) is forced to manage a young newcomer to the game with potential and they don't like it.
The youngster is cocky and arrogant and already feels that he knows more about the game than his mentor can teach him. Unfortunately other influential players in this angle (owners, mafia, etc) don't agree and therefore the veteran wrestler has to teach this youngster against his will under threat of death/firing.
This leads to various situations where there is a disagreement between manager and wrestler but resolves have to be made. And also various situations where threats become very close to being carried out.
Can tale off into any direction with either the manager or wrestler eventually coming out on top after an eventual match-up etc. Or can end up eventually getting along and finding that they are both better as a team, thus forming a friendship and/or tag team.
SeanLuc
#29. TITLE OF ANGLE: GUY IN THE CROWD
A wrestler is harrassed by a fan, week after week. Eventually a match is made between wrestler and fan (a basic accepted challenge, or some more creative manner).
Bare-bones, but that's the beauty of this thread. Plenty of room to make it your own. An angle extending on this premise was played very well over the last month in NAFW, by Dave, handler of Keith Owens.
DJ Gallagher
#30. TITLE OF ANGLE: CHEATING DEATH
A wrestler becomes stale in his current gimmick and loses a string of matches. Eventually, he reaches a breaking point and disappears. When he's next seen again, he kills himself in an over-the-top dramatic style.
The next week (or month, whatever time period you see fit), the wrestler appears again with a brand new gimmick, spurred on by faking his own death. This angle usually transitions a mega babyface into a monster heel.

#47 HERBIE THE LOVE CART
A wrestler's golf cart suddenly seems to gain consciousness, talking to random passersby. It turns out that the golf cart has a walkie talkie stashed inside it, and the wrestler is using it to spy on people. It sounds fucking retarded on paper, but there's a million directions you could go with something as off the wall as that.
A PARTICULAR GREY CHIHUAHUA
#48 YOU TRAITOR
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are a tag team, and are documented as being best of friends. Wrestler A has suffered a mental breakdown recently and Wrestler B helped him/her get back on their feet. Teaming together seems to have brought out a new strength in the previously broken Wrestler A, and the two of them storm through the tag team ranks.
Eventually, they fight for the titles and win, resulting in a glorious run as champions. Wrestler A states that Wrestler B was his/her inspiration to come back and do this. A lot of focus on the relationship between these two would be very effective.
However, on one night the champions lose the titles, thanks to a miscalculation/loss on the part of Wrestler B. He/she is crushed at losing, but Wrestler A informs him/her that everything is okay, and they'll team together again. And so the following show they do so in another tag team match, possibly a rematch for the titles.
But all of a sudden, when Wrestler B is in trouble in the ring, Wrestler A heads inside and hits his/her finishing move on Wrestler B. He/she then urges their opponent to make the cover, and exits the ring, leaving Wrestler B to lose the match and receive a beatdown at the hands of the opponents.
Wrestler A would then state that Wrestler B was at fault for ruining their run at tag team gold, and would go on to antagonise a confused Wrestler B for a few weeks. It would make Wrestler B appear very sympathetic. Eventually the feud will boil down to them fighting each other at a PPV, with either Wrestler B trying to reason with his/her former partner, or taking out his/her aggression for the betrayal.
From there, it could go in a whole bunch of directions.
#49 MOPPY
A wrestler, during a match, has his/her head slammed into the ringpost extremely hard/is hit by a steel chair with a lot of force. They are pinned by their opponent, having been clearly knocked unconscious. Head blows like these will continue for a long time.
Then, one week, the wrestler will seem totally out of it. Completely unbalanced. They will start doing airplane motions in the ring, and acquire an inanimate object (preferably a household item like a mop) that they will talk to and treat like a person.
Hey, it worked for Perry Saturn, right?
#50 THE LEGEND OF WRESTLER
A wrestler starts wearing green garments and wields a sword in the ring. He also wears fake elf ears and a hat. In his interviews, he informs his opponents that he will protect the Triforce of Wisdom from them by sending them back to the evil wizard Ganon using his mighty blade.
He will ride to the ring on a steed, and in matches he will break jars over the heads of his opponents and throw bombs at them. He'll then smile and put his hands on his hips, laughing at his downed opponent as the referee calls for the disqualification. He will never win another match again for the rest of his career.

#51: I AM SPARTACUS
Wrestler A takes on a mask for some reason or another, and a long-time rival in Wrestler B is out to expose him. Inexplicably, a legion of wrestlers dressed identically to Wrestler A in his masked gear appear at a time when Wrestler B is calling him out, and it's up to Wrestler B to take them all down to find out which one is really B.
#52: THE SPORTSMAN'S BET
Wrestler A and Wrestler B are watching a football game on TV and get into an argument over who was the best quarterback in high school. The encounter gets so heated that they can't settle it themselves, so they agree to form two five-man teams with themselves as the quarterbacks and have a face-off to decide who has the better arm once-and-for-all. Possibilities: The wrestlers could go around trying to recruit other wrestlers or football players for their teams, which could be spaced out over several weeks if done properly. Then, you can have the game, a friendly game of flag football that turns violent as both teams begin brawling amidst the game... While the game's still going on!
#53. The Crush
Wrestler A gets a crush on (female) Wrestler B. They date, etc., etc. Heel Wrestler C tries to take Wrestler B from A, fued insues.
Or Wrestler B betrays Wrestler A and has horribly graphic monkey sex with Wrestler C.
#54 - Give me back my f!%^&* belt!
Two or more wrestlers meet for a title, ending with one of the heels in the match getting pinned either losing, or failing to gain the title at stake. This doesn't sit well with the heel, and as the victor is cellebrating he blindsides him, beats him down and steals his belt off of him. For the next few weeks the champion desparately tries to get his belt back off his defeated opponent, only to fail repeatedly - snatching back toy replicas, briefly geting it back only to be cheap shot by an associate of the defeated challenger, and the like. if more than one person was involved in the original match then they too can be added to the feud, stealling it off of the original thief. This eventually ends in a rematch at the next big show, where the belt is put up for grabs in a ladder match (or similar).
This also works with other personal objects (I believe Angle/Benoit did this with Angle's medals), although a title belt is more fun. The whole 'champion who may never actually get to wear his belt thing is pretty compelling
#55 - Wrestler Is Stabbed
(Okay, we did this in a fed while I was on holiday and it seemed to go down really well.)
Wrestler A promises that he can come back and cause a ruckus in a fed he has recently returned to, where he was originally a well established wrestler. In his first match back, he faces another established character, Wrestler B. As he's about to partake in a match with Wrestler B, Wrestler A is stabbed by an currenly unknown Wrestler C.
For the next few shows there's a running storyline where all possible stabbers are question, although, a week before Wrestler A returns, Wrestler C is revealed and Wrestler B pays him his money. The week Wrestler A returns, he goes looking for Wrestler B and C and eventually they brawl, with A winning.
Then, at the PPV, there is a triple threat match between all three, where Wrestler A wins.
#56 - Who's your daddy?
Wrestler B (Usually the heel) mentions that Wrestler A's manager/wife/any female supporting character and he had a fling a while back. Well, it turns out Wrestler A has a kid with said supporting character, and the time frame fits - suddenly it's up in the air as to who the kid's father is. While Wrestler A reacts with rage, Wrestler B doesn't fight back until Wrestler C threatens the kid, at which point he starts screaming "Get your hands off my child!"
Cue a couple of segments, including possibly one Custody Match (the way my heel character did it was to let Wrestler A win that match out of "honor"), and finally, DNA testing. Have the DNA testing turn out either way, but if it's A's kid, then B can snap and beat the living ©Èѧخ out of him, which is always fun.
#57 - Rookie Sensation
Wrestler A is an young independant sensation. Wrestler A gets promted to a large company and Wrestler B (heel) is the champ of this company. Wrestler B welcomes wrestler A by saying something like " You will never be on my level, this is the big times rookie" Wrestler A strings together six or seven wins, including former champions, and a comment is made by an announcer or any staff member that wrestler B may be wrong about Wrestler A. Wrestler B then watches Wrestler A's matches from ringside is quickly disgustes after three or four wins. Wrestler B says he will put the title up if wrestler A can beat Wrestler C (heel's friend). With the odds against him wrestler A somehow beats wrestler C and gets his title match. Wrestler A then wins the title and proves he isnt just hype or Wrestler B cheats to win and brags about how he was right about wrestler A not being able to handle the big leagues.
