WWF Attitude Era is Awesome

   "If you smellllllleeeeed what The Rock? Is Cocky?" That's my favourite line from The Rock a.k.a Dwayne Johnson. Yeah! He's one of the famous wrestler back in the day during the WWF (Attitude Era) not the 'WWE' . It said Attitude Era because it was defined by a radical shift in programming content. In contrast to the more traditional family-friendly content that was common in WWF programming, the Attitude Era sought to attract the young adult demographic by transforming the product into an edgier form of entertainment. It's has more gore, violence and blood but still an entertainment. There are many superstars in WWF but the most making jaw-drop are The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Big Show, Chris Jericho, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Kane, Chris Benoit, Kurt Angle and Jeff Hardy. In this era the chairman of WWF Vincent Mcmahom always includes in every episode on every weeks and it's more dramatic and cool because the owner itself play a role.

   For me WWF Attitude Era is really awesome! Because WWE now is just like an entertainment show there's no  blood when the wrestles got hit by the steel chair and they cannot also hit the head of the wrestlers anymore because it was one of the reasons why Chris Benoit got a black spot on his brain when he got autopsy. Back on the day WWF was not for a kids but it's for an adults, but still kids still watching it whether on TV or live. WWF really famous with the line "Wherever You Are, Whenever You Are, Please Don't Try This at Home". But it's became controversy because many kids try it at their home and also a few of the kids died because of the impact.

   Now it's become WWE because it became controversy with the organization of WWF (World Wildlife Fund) and on 2002 it's officially changed to WWE and it's PG era. The famous superstars of this era are John Cena, Dolph Ziggler, CM Punk, Randy Orton, Sheamus. The WWF attitude era superstars are more famous and making jaw-drop. This era prohibited to hit the head with any objects and it's more of the talking and very different between WWF especially in Attitude Era. Many people now miss WWF especially Attitude Era because in this era now they only see kids everywhere in the arena but i think it's the strategy of the WWE Chairman & CEO's Vince K. Mcmahon for makes WWE more accepted on public whether on TV or kids. And it's become profit it's more accepted, statistic shown that the profit grown $39.83 million (2012)
