Boomers be like:>The attitude era is the best era evar!>yes the invasion sucked, yes the mcmahon-helmsley storyline sucked, yes the who ran over austin storyline sucked, yes the corporate ministry and higher power sucked sucked
>>19545369>sucked suckedBOTCH-A-MANIA
zoomers be like>OMG HE'S SO MUCH BETTER THAN HULK HOGAN AND STONE COLD
>>19545369>tries Attitude Era gotcha>posts events that all took place after it ended
>>19545369Most of that was post attitude era though.
>>19545369it was overrated but it was a had to be there kinda thing, like a music fad the big draw was that it was new and interesting
I liked a few of the wrestlers like Steve Austin, but the whole time all I wanted was for them to go back to the golden era/new gen vibe. Attitude era was not a peak. It marks the beginning of the decline.That's a shoot
>>19545369Bret Foundation vs USA is the greatest feud in the history of Our Sport.
>>19545402AE didn't end until Vince bought WCW. It is known.
>>19545402attitude era ended when they got the f out in 2002
>>19545402>attitude era ended the moment austin won the beltkek boomers are somethin else
>>19545369>Boomers>Attitude EraZoomers are so lost they can't even do math. Boomers were saying their vitamins and taking their prayers you broccoli headed dipshit
>>19545369Obese virgin smarks be like:>actually you know that really popular thing you like? well it was actually bad!have sex
>>19545478everyone over 30 is a boomer, boomer
>>19545482so big bang theory is the best show ever
>>19545369OP is a boomer faggot
>>19545444It's actually so fucking good. No rivalry has even come close to that level of legitimate heat.
>>19545492Did I hurt your feelings because popular things make you seethe and you’ll never have sex?
>>19545512>instantly get proven wrong>uhh you're triggeredtypical boomer
>>19545489This would make sense to zoomers seeing as they can only count to 6 7
>>19545492Damn right it is
>>19545478Boomers still be calling 12 year olds millennials lmao
>>19545524>6 7AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHSAHAKSDHLFJHKF'ldaj;s'l *dies*
>>19545543That's the funniest thing since CHICKEN JOCKEY
>>19545369NWO in WCW was the best thing ever in wrestling, it will never be that good as 1996 - 1998 WCW ever again.
Everyone knows that the peak was 97-98.
>>19545402if you want to debate if invasion era isn’t the attitude era then whatever there could be a case for that but there’s no way you think the others weren’t in the attitude era
>>19547754the attitude era was literally just from the very end of 1997 until russo left in 19992000-2002 were their own thing
>>19547798WWE themselves don’t say this though
>>19547822yeah because they make money off the nostalgic branding and want the "era" to encompass as much of what they deem to be important or peak ratings so they can sell documentaries and merch about it and pretend it was all one consistent planned thing in retrospect
>>19547754Attitude Era ended whenever the fuck they stopped having the Attitude Era intro. Afraid so
>>19547798The actual tonal shift in the product happens earlier, pretty much exactly after WM13.
>>19545482I was a WCW guy because of Eric Bischoff going all Tony Khan on buying up all the best junior wrestlers in the world. I legit didn't care for the Attitude Era but WCW just wasn't the same without Chris Jericho and after losing the Radicalz, it was a completely different show that I didn't care to see. But for some reason, shit made more sense in WWF after HHH and Cactus Jack feuded and the shows got actually good. I remember being a huge HHH fan back then. The coolest thing was it didn't have heel solidarity. Like Test always distrusted HHH even as a heel because HHH stole Steph from him.
>>19547849The Ruthless Aggression era officially started when Vince McMahon cut a promo saying it.
>>19549224It was Bret's "THIS IS BULLSHIT" promo that started it all.
>>19545444This. People rag on new gen, but early new gen is where it sucked - late new gen and the overlap with early attitude is the real Kino.
