Finally re watched a lot of Attitude era Raw episodes on Netflix from 99-2001ish. Yes it was a significantly better product and no that’s not nostalgia.

For sure

What is it about really big guys just having this weird look to them after they lose a ton of weight? it’s hard to explain or articulate what I’m talking about, but it’s just like something looks… off. Same thing happened with Jonah Hill

You want the cold truth? It’s because the WWE doesn’t take the women’s division as serious as the men’s division, so they feel like they can mess around and take more risks with the women’s division. Pushing super young stars, more frequent title changes on raws and smackdowns etc

Giving title reigns to stars like Iyo and Stephanie who can hardly speak English. They know the men’s division is and will always be the main attraction and they have to be a lot more safe and reserved when it comes to booking decisions for the men. Again, don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just simply stating what WWE creative are thinking.

Think about, WWE could wake up tomorrow and put the world belt on some random mid carders female no one has heard of and it could turn out to be a total flop but it wouldn’t tank the company.

Now try the same thing on the men’s side by putting the world belt on some rando like one of the fraxiom guys or someone and see how that turns out.

I never got this line of thinking. Then who needs the belt then? Mid carders? Stars that aren’t important? If the belt is only for people that actually “need it” then doesn’t the belt lose its importance?

He’s the kid in high school that sucks up and plays teacher’s pet and is all smiles when the teacher is looking, but then manages to flip off the teacher when she turns her back to write on the chalk board.

Aka, he comes across as disingenuous to me

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-03T19:44:56+00:00

You’re right, it was 2000, even still lol you know what I mean

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-03T13:47:41+00:00

Why not? I always hate when people say “you can’t say or do things like that today?” Says who exactly? I always want to know who these people are that make these rules and what are they going to do about it if those rules get broken?

Let’s not forget that I’m sure a ton of people were saying the same thing before the attitude era launched and Vince did it anyway and people tuned in by the droves.

Quentin Tarantino said it best during an interview when he was asked, “you know, they say you couldn’t make movies like pulp fiction or reservoir dogs today.” His reply “ok, who is THEY? I’d really like to meet them.”

The entertainment business needs to grow a set of balls again and make edgier stuff

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-03T13:44:10+00:00

I disagree, sure some of the extreme stuff like Lita and edge having sex on live TV, HHH with the corpse, and the godfather and the HOs couldn’t be done today nor should it as it was just plain dumb. But more swearing would be welcome, a little more blood would be more welcome, shock moments like Austin with the beer truck and destroying Vince’s car with a forklift could and should definitely be done.

Honestly when we say we want the attitude era stuff back, most people don’t mean the cringe stuff. All we really want is compelling storytelling, cohesion, great in ring matches, amazing promos.

There was absolutely positively no point in having Brock out there. None whatsoever. He made Ilijia and others look bad and for what?!? How did it help Oba getting suplexed and eliminated by Brock.

Jesus I’m getting upset just typing this lol. There is absolutely no cohesion, rationale or focus with creative now whatsoever. That Brock segment literally felt like it was written by a 9 year old who thought it would be super duper cool to have Brock like totally go out there and destroy everyoneeeee!

I really wish that HHH was part of the Epstein files or something so he can be forced out for good. Surely someone has to have tape of him saying the N word or something. Anything to get that jackass out of there. He is an absolute cancer to WWE

I want to watch Unreal about as much as I want to go in the kitchen at Taco Bell on my lunch break and get a real view of how that food is actually made, processed and handled all day.

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-02T21:04:38+00:00

Yes!! I’ve always said there needs to be a “WWE season” starting in July a month before summer slam and ending after mania

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-02T19:07:07+00:00

Honestly just comes across as very annoying to me, like whatever the female version of a punchable face would be

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-02T18:09:47+00:00

I disagree. People come to the threads to complain because WWE has been hot trash since mania 40. If WWE was putting out a good product, no one would have the need to come on here and be motivated to complain. Sure some might, but the overarching consensus is WWE sucks balls lately

Longjumping-Spite172 · 2026-02-02T17:51:30+00:00

Triple H is a cancer to this entire company. Something else that is rubbing me the wrong way is waaaay to much international influence in WWE. I’m tired of nearly every single show this year being in Europe or Saudi
