I never understood the whole "when today's target audience grows up the product will get edgier again" idea. I mean, it's not as if wrestling fans come in waves, there's always gonna be young kids getting into it, so if Vince wants that to be his audience it will be.
Also, what is the precedent to say that another Attitude Era will come ever again. Is there a cycle that shows wrestling gets edgy then retreats back to being more family friendly, then back to edgy?
I think it might be time to accept that the Attitude Era might have been a one off.
