He's still just as good in many ways. As far as match quality goes, it's tough. In his original run, he was working with peers and putting on classic matches naturally. Matches like Shawn vs Bret, and Shawn vs Razor were not dream matches at the time. They were matches between the wrestlers of the time, and they became classics. Since he's returned, he's put on just as many, if not more, classics. BUT....they've done a much better job of realizing his legacy, and booking to his ability. He's put into dream matches with Undertaker, Angle, and Jericho with the full knowledge that he's the best of alltime, and those matches are given the freedom to shine. So essentially, one era is the building of his legacy, and the other is reeping the benefits to further it. In either era, he's the best from bell to bell.
