Please, vote in the poll.

Explanations: Golden Age - From WM1 started to when Hulk left basically.
Rebuilding - Not sure, it sucked for the most part, I just called it Rebuilding.
Attitude: No need for me to tell.
HCTP: Brock Lesnar era basically. We all know he completely changed WWE when he entered and when he left.
Ruthless Aggression: From Brock's departure to Benoit's death.
Shitty: Nothing to explain, it sucked ass and most of us will agree.
Present: The current product.

HCTP era. The best matches, the best roster and it wasn't as much of a car crash as the Attitude Era.

Disagree. Just because there have been a few feuds centered around 'breaking the 4th wall' doesn't mean it's the dawn of a new era IMO. Outside of Punk during the Summer of Punk and Rock/Cena what else supports the idea that this is a new 'reality era' ?

So despite the complete main events of the whole WWE what has changed it? You just rule out the spotlight, the events that the whole show is based around? Even outside of those - twitter, facebook, stats week after week, comparing to other companies, that's why it's named the reality era. It's so built around modern reality, social networking and that stuff.

I guess we agree to disagree.

Voted Attitude Era.

But Ruthless Agression Era was not that bad at all.
I liked that one to very much.

The Ruthless Aggression era seemed to elevate so many workers in a very short period of time

Rey, Benoit, Eddie, Cena, Orton, Edge, Batista and even JBL saw their careers sky rocket

You compare that to TNA in the same time period with possibly greater talents and you see how fantastic an accomplish it was


TNA refused to capitalize on their young talent when they clearly had the chance... neglecting to mention Rock/Austin retirements to boot

I'm comparing

WWE managed to scrap themselves together quite a future in a very short period of time

That era impressed me b/c WWE needed to replace old stars and they did it.

Today, WWE seems reluctant to pull the trigger and elevate certain talent


I'm not going to mention guys like Punk, Joe and superior tag divisions they simply neglected to capitalize on. TNA is just now improving

That's what last years youth movement should have achieved. It sort of achieved something with Miz and Ziggler, but it could have done much better.
