I'm curious what about mania 13 makes you guys say that was attitude? That card was fairly tame outside of bret/austin.

And Nov 9,1997 just because of the screw job birthed attitude?

I think stuff leading into ss97 had attitude

A lot of fans cite KotR '96, which birthed "Austin 3:16" as a starting point simply because of the famous promo Austin delivered after winning.

When someone says "Attitude Era" I always think of 1998, 1999, 2000. IMO, the era officially started in December 1997 with Vince's "intelligence insulting" promo and it ended in March 2001 with Vince buying out WCW. The edginess of the content doesn't really count for me. The state of the federation is what I look at. If you go by content, that would mean that the Trish/Mickie lesbian angle and the Edge/Matt Hardy feud, among other stuff years later was part of the attitude era!?! Content was edgy before 1998 and content was edgy after 2000, but defining a specific era, those 3 whole years is what I go by.
