No, it'll never go back to that. Society has changed greatly since then...
As for PureHatred saying that people cheer for the anti-authority and anti-hero, I think that's actually gone down dramatically since the Attitude days came to a close and 9/11. Faces are back to being nice guys who follow what the rules are, and the heels are back to being anti-heros. I mean, granted it's NOTHING like how it was in the 80s. However, compared to the Attitude Era....no way.
Also, that doesn't mean that the fans don't think the same...I believe its more around the lines of WWE shoving something down someone's throat i.e. Randy Orton. When he was a dick, the crowd loved him....but when he turned into a goody good face, his response flattened. Look at Austin coming out again...forcing beer on a guy who loves to be in shape (hahaha) and stunning him...the response was crazy. That's why I'm so against Christian and others turning face b/c their crowd response will die greatly due to the fact that they'll be goofy good guys i.e. John Cena.
I think the WWE is trying to hard to be conservative now.
