The Attitude Era was so good it basically broke pro wrestling. Nobody has ever figured out how to follow it up. Wrestling in the early 2000's wasn't bad but it was really just coasting on momentum and running on fumes from the Attitude Era. For about 20 years now the whole business has been grasping at straws trying to figure out what to do next. But nobody has been able to come up with anything. Everybody just kind of rehashes the Attitude Era but worse. Why can't the business move on and develop a new formula?

Yeah it's a shame what happened to wrestling
Now it's filled with trannies and aimed towards liberals

What you do is you let LA Knight off his leash to open up a can of whoopass on everyone. There can be no limits to what airs. America wants that back more than any of the owners realize. It's a simple fucking formula and that's the bottom line.

Wrestling is broken because the wrong company won.
Attitude Era is overrated anyway, the post-Russo Ruthless Aggression era was where it was at and, luckily, happened after after WCW made the mistake of hiring him.

It's been downhill since the early 90s, brother

Even back in the 90s, AJPW's Giant Baba was working to the assumption that there are more and more competition in the entertainment sector and pro-wrestling will be shoved down sooner or later. With or without the Atitude Era this would have happened.

It became a monopoly and allowed Lupton to book for his own amusement for 25 years.
The indie leagues had no structure and early ROH became 'let's do retarded shit we saw on Japanese tapes to pop Dave.' That continues to this day in AEW. Even in the dark period of early to mid 90's, Cornette and Heyman at least tried to put out two products that were completely the opposite to anything in WWF or WCW. There's none of that now, just keeping doing 2005 ROH shit eternally.
