Welcome to the Forums. There was a poll on this topic a few weeks back, with many more eras to choose from.

From that list, I'll choose the Attitude Era because that is when the Monday Night war was at its peak, and stars like Stone Cold and The Rock made it big.

The WWF days were great, but Attitude saw a rise in better wrestling and more realistic storylines. Now is good, but it's still just Attitude-lite.

Attitude because a lot of deserving workers got pushed, the storylines were more entertaining, and WWF started beating WCW in the ratings wars.

Attitude.. mainly because of the whole Corporation Vs. Ministry and Corporation Vs. DX... I didnt like the Corporation but I had to go with them with the whole Undertaker storyline... that shit was so well thought out.. i wish the writers gave that much effort now a days... and with Undertaker strapping Austin to his symbol.. that shit was crazy...

Hello, I am JamesSteele also known as "The F***ing Man!".


I did a thread on this a couple of months ago weeks ago, but as mayo said there might be a new one. So read it and read the rules before you bump it (if you do, which i don't recommend).

I like the era that sold the most tickets and drew in the most money. Therefore, it's between the 80's and late 90's.

I disagree that actual wrestling got better not until 2000 anyways, 98 and 99 were not that hot for in ring action

Attitude was easily the best. Best storylines, wrestling, wrestlers. Also, there was no fear of censorship.

From April 1998 to August 1999 was the golden age of the WWF's sports entertainment.

After Russo left, things took a dive and they've crashed three hundred miles beneath rock bottom since.

Uh-oh, a Russo-ite.

Russo didn't do much of shit in WWF. He had a few good ideas and some that were risque enough to garner attention/viewers.

VinnieRu didn't help WCW did he? And how much is he helping TNA?
