Will Wrestling return to Attitude Era-esque?

I don't watch wrestling but do you feel WWE will revert to late 90's early 2000's style of take no prisoners, good storyline wrestling. Or is it to remain the same.

If you see this, I know you use Boards.

I can't see it changing anytime soon. The reasons are numerous, but mainly due to sponsorship pressure to remain pg. Plus, with no real competition, the E don't have as much pressure on them to provide bleeding edge entertainment.

Yep, not anytime soon. Mattel deal runs til 2015 and WWE will be looking to further that. Also their sponsorship deals are so much better now in the PG Era - Pepsi, Pizza Hut now, back in the day, Stridex Pimple Cream and 10-10-220 collect calls. WWE are making about $50,000,000/year and nobody's chasing them. That latter means they're much less willing to take risks and make new company-leaders (which would bring about a new era), which is why we're seeing Rock/Cena sell Mania for the third year in a row.

They'll tease it now and then but it won't be going back to bra and panties matches every Monday.

You're more likely to get a KrispinWah tribute show than a return to attitude!

LADS - no mentioning other people's names real names, they haven't consented to it. I'm locking this thread.
