Attitude era

During this period:
1999 till early 2001, who do you ppl think were the top 10 biggest stars of the WWE:

10. Kurt Angle - I personally feel he gave some real legitimacy to the WWE. Helped start to bring less big men to the fed, and more smaller and better wrestlers. The days of 6'5 (or whatever) Ultimate Warrior like wrestlers and other no talent ppl was replaced by new, better wrestlers, more entertaining wrestlers.
9. Kane - Was there and about the whole time. Is probably slightly forgotten when you think of Taker, Rock, Austin etc...
8. Jeff Hardy - Made people say HOLY F*CK! And that helped get ppl interested.
7. The Undertaker - The fifth member of the five main eventers during this period. helped to establish attitude, but missed a bit of it (like foley)
6. Mankind - Mick Foley was a crucial part of this era. Him falling off (and through) the cage made alot of ppl start watching WWE, leading the way for Austin, HHH and the rock to shine.
5. Jim Ross - The voice of attitude
4. The Rock - Was probably the biggest superstar of this era, yet i felt HHH and Austin probably did slightly more (mainly early on.)
3. Triple H - He was the one of the biggest babyfaces (with DX) and one of the bigest heels (McMahon-Helmsley era.)
2. Steve Austin - Biggest babyface since Hulk, was the impetus for attitude
1. Vince McMahon - technically, he created the whole thing. He also played the major heel in the two major factions.

Important players that missed out:
Dudleyz, Matt Hardy and E and C, DX members (esp X Pac), Too Cool (esp. rikishi), Val Venis, Shane McMahon, Steph McMahon, The Radicalz, Jerry Lawler


Top 5 Favourite wrestlers:
1. Carlito Cool
2. Chris Benoit
3. Randy Orton
4. Christian
5. Kurt Angle
