Loose Cannon and Dastardly One nailed it. Storylines and characters were way more interesting in '97. '95, which is considered to be one of WWE's worst yrs, saw a ton of silly, crappy gimmicks that nobody could get invested in and no credible challengers for Diesel. You couldn't replace Hogan though Vince certainly tried w/ Luger and Diesel. When the nWo came along it was the perfect storm b/c nothing compelling was going on in WWF or WCW plus the counter culture of the late '90s. Not to mention WWF benefitted greatly from the Screwjob b/c Vince was very believable as the Mr. McMahon character.
