i think i started watching in 98, it was just when stone cold was challenging shawn for the title at mania 14 and became the biggest star in the company. rock was still in the nation but was quickly becoming number 2It's why I always watch 97 Raw which was my fav year in wrestling. It's the year wrestling got real.
The promos, some of the matches, the drama, all real. Also Vince finally let his guys be themselves. I have probably watched 97 raw a dozen times along with the PPVs and it never gets old to me.
I have to skip some of the crappy boring stuff but overall it was the best imo.
97-98 for me.
01-02 should have been the mega year for wrestling all time if they would have done the invasion angle properly.
I would have kept it almost the same except WWF squashes WCW and embarrasses them.
Then when 02 rolls around the big boys from WCW enter (nWo, Goldberg, Flair) and now we got the best set up for WM 18. The entire PPV could have been 1 giant WCW vs WWF ppv
Goldberg vs Austin
Hogan vs Rock
Flair vs HHH
Outsiders vs Edge/Christian or New age outlaws
So many possibilities ruined
