I don't think they could ever create that again.

Lol, loads of people want the Attitude era back again, me being one of those people.
The Attitude Era was an attempt on the WWF's part to capitalise on the success of ECW's hardcore style. There's no reason for them to do it again, and with the WWE's TV shows now rated PG, it won't be happening.
Yeah, I don't like it how WWE appeals to the younger generation now tbh.
No one likes the new PG rated WWE. EVERYONE WANTS THE ATTITUDE ERA BACK. Attitude Era actually made me look forward to watching wwe :(
Well, they have to, for business. A huge percentage of its fans are kids.
And WWE has only just been rated PG, and of course all the wild things can happen on PPV.
Lol, yeah. I do look forward to WWE a bit nowadays, but the WWF era always had shocks and surprises etc.
That's probably because dirtsheets weren't every other website on the net, so you wouldn't have been spoiled back then. If no one read into it, it would still be unpredictable. The reason why the WWE keeps pulling these swerves lately is because they are trying to defy what the internet wrestling community finds out from the dirtsheet websites.
I don't read spoilers and stuff but I can still pretty much predict what will happen. They need new creative writers. Im certain that most kids who watch WWE would prefer what happened in the attitude era than what happens today.
Too many gimmick matches, not enough solid wrestling.
Are you on about gimmicks in attitude era or now?
Most of the audience aren't too bothered about solid wrestling, they watch it for entertainment.
Gimmick matches, not wrestler gimmicks.
Wrestling is wrestling, wrestling is telling stories in the ring with great psychology, not weapons or cages or dumpsters. In moderation, like the WWE of today, is fine, to cap off feuds, but not all the time - that's garbage wrestling.
Everyone does not want the attitude era back. I for one do not. It was a phase, people will look back on this era and think it was the best ever. People will look back on the next generation and think it was the best ever. See where im going with this?
I just want a whole WWE revamp. Thats what made 2002 exciting.. this "WWE" made it feel like a whole different company. The WWE's attempt at a rebrand in January failed IMO.
I don't think i'll look back on this era and think it was the best ever. I think it's been terrible.
I thought the 2003 era was quite good. Evolution, Booker T, RVD, Kevin Nash, Goldberg, Brock Lesnar, The Rock, Shawn Michaels etc. I won't look back on WWE now in a few years and say it was great.
I don't segment the WWE into eras. I just look at the years it progresses. The only real "eras" you can call would be the Golden Age, and then Attitude.
Yeah, I think this generation/period or whatever you want to call it needs a big event to class it as an 'era' or whatever.
Edge wants Christians last run to be in WWE... good!
I think a lot of people say that when Cena was the champion, that was a new era.
Your joking, right?
How? He's just another champion. You could say his first victory is what began the reign of John Cena, but by no means is it an era.
I've seen people referring to it on YouTube as like 'Cena Era' and stuff. It's probably because he never lost the title and that, I dunno.
Weird. They forget Batista was World Heavyweight Champion then.
Well im a huge fan of the Santino era :l
Them people who say **** on youtube dont know jack about wrestling and most likely think Batista and Cena are the best things since sliced bread.
Yeah, whoever is champion at that time they think is a new era.
Meh. Bring back Bischoff, WWE needs a non-wrestling super-heel. If he was not rimming Hogan right now I am sure he might be back.
I always liked Bischoff's role in the WWE.
yeah i think bischoff was a great general manager
he was funny aswell which is great
hogan as a GM that would be awesome
Okay, Felony, scrap what I said. A No Mercy preview will be up in about an hour or so on Gerweck.net
I for one want the ECW/WCW invasion to come back again, perhaps an all brand fight like Smackdown vs RAW vs ECW, would keep me watching :) The WWE lacks characters right now, they will never be able to conjure up someone like stone cold ever again. The reason why we enjoyed austin was because we could all relate to him in someway, his attitude as it where was a typical stereotype and was funny :)
@Marcs post.
Whats up with you? You used to be half decent and whenever you see my posts you seem to criticise. No point man.

Another invasion would be a bit boring imo cause we've seen one before and we know how it will end. They need a complete re-think of the ECW roster though, ECW is all about hardcore wrestling but there is only one original left :rolleyes:
Does anyone know where i can watch No Mercy tomorrow ? I cba to stay up & watch it live.
Billy try http://galaxiawrestling.blogspot.com/ or www.SAPO.PT
