It's obvious nothing similar to the attitude era is coming back...so...WQ inside..?

Question

WQ: Do you think WWE should try to do their wrestling similar to the NWA/Jim Crockett/WCW of the mid to late 80's?

I just thought of that, because for some reason the HBK/Y2J feud reminds me of something that would've happened there.

...and if we can't get something like the attitude era back, I could definitely live with seeing something similar to that promotion from the mid to late 80's..their wrestling was great at that time.

Obviously with WWE there would be more characters involved though...

Answer 1

i think so cause right now it is seeming that way with slow matches(which i like cause it tells the story good) and with more wrestling then talking

Answer 2

For sure something needs to be done with WWE to bring back that "Wow" factor again.As much as i'd love to have the Attitude Era back,it's not going to happen.Neither in spirit nor with the legends like Stone Cold or The Rock.That was a magical one-off era that will never be repeated again sadly.There seems to be a lull right now in WWE with no clearly defined era like the Atttiude or Old School WWF for example.It lacks the athletic skills of NWA/ Jim Crockett and the showmanship of WCW and even the style of WCCW.

I can see elements of past feuds in those promotions with some current ones in WWE.Jericho and HBK could be another Ric Flair vs Sting.While CM Punk and JBL could pass for Lex Luger and Barry Windham's feud with the Horsemen issue.Ted DiBiase Jr and Cody Rhodes have the capacity to be a fair imitation of the Midnight Express.For sure most of the WWE roster wouldn't come close to any of the WCCW or NWA stars.But all it takes is a little creativity to regain the glitz or gamor of WCW, the athletic oriented style of NWA and the fast paced fan focused wrestling of WCCW.The ratings for WWE continue to disappoint and creating a new era might just be the way to address that issue.

Answer 3

wow.... iono if ur wanting the attitude era back or want to see similar events from it, but if u are, thank god... i know theres many people that want that but d**n...

and i said the same thing, hbk/y2j really does remind me of that era, but for some reason, not as fresh... see if kane brought back the mask, hbk went to jerichos house at night and there were walkin over his lawn to his frontdoor with the cameraman following, it wouldve been like attitude era revived...

but yo, the attitude era was mainly the 90's, 80's were i think the new era or new gen. and before was the golden age...

Answer 4

Bringing back something with the attitude era would be awesome. I thought earlier that they might do that. DX was back for a while, and Animal and Hawk. But it all went away. But the HBK and Y2J thing does seem to be a fued that would have happened. But the only thing is theres not been as much outside things happening. Yeah, HBK's wife was hit and got a fat lip. But in the attitude era there would have been more backstage stuff going on too.
