man this was when stone cold, and like dx made it cool to be a wrestling fan, adults and teens and kids were all watching it, wearing the shirts, going to the shows, now its just for kids....and im not proud to be a wrestling fan anymore.

@CactusG26 i said decent, i didn't say superb, wrestling is a business at the end of the day and what counts is who draws money, for what cena lacks in wrestling ability as well coolness in his gimmick, he makes up for it with decent mic skills, charisma, great physique as well as connection to the fans. his core audience may be children but who besides cena and orton on the roster can really draw like orton and cena? whether u hate them they get the biggest crowd reactions besides undertaker

@CactusG26 I know that it being dissbanded early was because Nash got injured and Hall was fired. But Nash had later come back and they could of brought it back with him, Triple H and HBK. Or even had them come together as The Worlfpac or something, I just think that Vince didn't really like them because even when they were all there he didn't use them properly. I liked the whole "poison" part but the first thing they did when they showed up was "thank" people for giving them a chance ? WTF ?

@ThaOneChrisJONES the nWo wasn`t supposed to dissapear but Nash injured his knee pretty badly and that`s why it had to be folded (the nWo without Kevin Nash doesn`t exist)... it`s been known for years that the original plan for the nWo back in 2002 was for Triple H to join in and then turn against Michaels to set up his in ring return...

@nickochosiete CENA DECENT????? please that guy is nothing but a VERY bad attemp to create another Hogan like character.... if Cena would have been in the wwf in the late 90s he would have been a nothing but a mid carder... in the late 90s with Austin, Taker, Rock, Michaels, Bret, Triple H, Foley all in their prime Cena would have been another Jim Dougan...

Orton on the other hand would have fit in nicely as well as Edge

[ThaOneChrisJONES]

@retardedscarded NWO was folded because Vince is an ego maniac and instead of making the NWO last, he made it a joke and "destroyed it forever" to more or less sooth his own ego because they had almost put him out of buisness. The NWO could still be around today, but instead we are stuck with Nexus...... LAME.

The undercards were wank to be fair Owen Hart really didnt want to be there at that point after the Montreal screwjob,HHH who wasnt ready,Ken Shamrock who wasnt very entertaining,Val Venis (Best part of his act was when he left)D Lo Brown (Oh please)Mark Henry(lol)New age outlaws(Ive seen better tag teams on a porno)I did miss one very good piece of talent though and that was Mick Foley.

[Pulpedtoafiction31]

Yea but there wasnt alot of decent Talent back in the early Attitude days.Most of the talent fucked of on the WCW bandwagon.You only had Undertaker,Kane and a fucked up Shawn Michaels along with an up and coming Steve Austin and Rock who were mid carders before this.When Bret fought Austin at WM13 he was still a mid card talent.

[nickochosiete]

@Pulpedtoafiction31 who would be the rock? this eras talent SUCKS! even given the right storylnes only guys that are decent are cena and orton

[Pulpedtoafiction31]

By far the best era of wrestling.Its a shame because I could see this era being on the same level if it adopted the same attitude as the previouse era with characters like Randy Orton.
