That doesn't mean we can't miss it
And while that era had things that can't be replicated, it had things that could be. Stories, intrigue and matches fans actually want to see.
Having Sting and Taker in key positions at Mania in 2015 is just wrong. This year could have been used to showcase Ambrose, Ziggler and Bryan in stories that could have intrigued.
Bryan trying to beat Lesnar, maybe Ambrose continuing a feud with the authority and taking on HHH. Ziggler and Barrett could have had a great ladder match over the IC title by themselves. But as it is, there are no intriguing stories to sell and most people fans were interested in are shoved into one bizarre match.
