Which DVD would you want next in Greatest Rivalries, Austin/Rock or Rock/Triple H ???

After the HUGE success of the first DVD based on Greatest Rivalries with Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart there has been a lot of talk on WWE doing another one but this time featuring Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock some time this year. The question i ask though is the DVD with Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock the one you want to see or would you prefer one done with The Rock and Triple H which for me was a more natural rivalry and one that is said to have been based on genuine ill feeling between the two.
The reason for why the DVD with Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart did so well was because everyone knew that there was a lot of real life problems backstage between the pair of them which transcended on screen and made their feud so special. With The Rock and Triple H there was always said to be real life problems between them dating back to mid 1997 when The Rock began to get a big push ahead of Triple H who had been put back a year due to The Clique in Madison Square Garden.
There were always rumours about Triple H trying to get Shawn Michaels to help derail the rise of The Rock through 1998 and again once The Rock had become a main event star by the end of that year whilst Triple H was still a mid carder and that a lot of the promos they cut on each other from 1997 through to 2000 were based on real life feelings which is why their feud was so great as a lot of it was real. With Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock it was a professional rivalry that elevated each other and the whole business and outside of Stone Cold Steve Austin walking out on WWE in mid 2002 there was never any kind of bad blood between the two of them.
Personally i'm a big believer in the DVD's on Greatest Rivalries being a big success but the ones that will do the best financially and commercially will be the ones that are based on real life problems between the people featured on them. For me The Rock and Triple H worked perfectly and were the perfect enemies because they were polar opposites but also because there was real life friction between them and that would transcend on to tv and would also provide a better Greatest Rivalries DVD than Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock would. Don't get me wrong i loved Austin/Rock as much as the next man if not more as i'm a HUGE mark for both men but i believe Rock/Triple H would be better viewing.

It was shawn michaels that insecure cocksucker who tried to bury the Rock so that he can put his buddy on top and continue his backstage antics. He even refused to job to steve austin in the main event of wrestlemania, taker had to beat the crap out of him, made him cry a little bitch backstage and then made him job. Michaels is a fucking pussy, always been. I hate that asshole...
This is brief history of shawn's glorious backstage stories

I've no idea where you got this information from. The DVD sold far less than expected and the series has been scrapped.

Rock/Austin was defo the better rivalry of the two, so I'd prefer to see that on DVD next.

Taker himself said that he basically gave Shawn an ultimatum. If he didn't do the job to Austin, Taker said it was going to be a long night for Shawn. But Taker said nothing about him beating Shawn's ass prior to the match, like your implying.

Kinda torn on that one, if only because we've been beaten to death with constant re-releases of every Austin/Rock match. A set of every Rock/HHH match would be very refreshing by comparison.
I definitely think the Austin/Rock DVD would be a bigger draw. That feud was epic. And when it comes to the idea of Rock and HHH sitting down together, who knows how far they'll really dig to shed light on the legit heat Hunter and Shawn had with Rock in the 90's? One of my biggest pet peeves of the Bret/Shawn DVD was how certain things here and there were swept under the rug or not touched on.
