I have started watching the whole attitude era PPV's starting at Wrestlemania 14
I started watching WWE again recently and decided to take the plunge and relive the heyday of the WWF/WWE
What is surprises me most is about how cutting edge the WWF product was back in the the Attitude era. I think you could put it on TV now and it would still shock people and it actaully has a message!
Is Becky Lynch THE MAN? Or is Chyna the one and only orginal MAN, getting chokeslammed by Kane and hit with Bronko Busters by Xpac? Real equality, hitting guys and getting hit. Not this Gillette bullshit these days.
Buried alive matches / Inferno matches / chair shots to the head / darker colour scheme / better fan interaction / hell half the fights seem to end up in the crowd with people going wild, touching the wrestlers, flipping the guys off!
Watching the DX intro it is like a music video, in your face with buildings being blown up, wild graphics, fireworks, girls dancing, cut with a live performance and walkout. It is freaking awesome! It is a message of rebeillion to the young kids - crazy!

I am absoltuely dismayed at how soft the modern day product is. If it is so bad can they not just go back to a more mature product? I mean the penetration WWF had back in the day as literally being the coolest product in the world has been lost, how much is that worth? I honestly think the Attidue era may have been one of the greatest and most entertaining things ever produced for TV.
Can they at least bring back the freaking fireworks? I mean how hard is it?
I tried watching NXT but it is basically WWE but everything is black and everyone is from Glasgow Scotland???

Where can i watch people get hit in the head with chairs again? I read that The Undertaker and HHH even broke the rules at one Wrestlemania because they loved hitting eachother with chairs so much.
Watching Taker and Stone Cold in Over The Edge 1999 ect - those guys beat the shit out of each other!! I was watching some Spike Dudley highlights earlier and the guy took HUGE BUMPS! Is that now allowed anymore? Everyone knows wrestling is fake right so what is the problem?

I was wathing Smackdown yesterday and Vince and Shane should be enjoying their retirement but they are literally the only people anyone still cares about. It is very sad really - where did it go wrong?
