10 Rare photos from WWE's Attitude Era that fans need to see

#6 Early promo shot of Edge

Edge

When Edge first started in WWE, he played the character of a loner who hung around in subways and entered the arena through the crowd. We also had vignettes, at the time, showing Edge wandering the streets aimlessly and sometimes attacking pedestrians.

In this early promotional shot of Edge, we see him on the street trying his best to look like a loner. It’s been almost 22 years since this photo was taken and Edge went on to become a multiple-time world champion and sure-shot Hall of Famer.

#5 Stone Cold with the media

Stone Cold

Stone Cold Steve Austin is one of the most recognizable WWE Superstars of all time and one of WWE’s torchbearers during the Attitude Era. Austin and Vince McMahon’s feud catalyzed WWE during the Monday Night Wars, helping the company eventually beat WCW.

However, as one of the faces of the company, the media was as important back then as it is now. In this photo, we see Austin before a show, taking some time out to talk to a reporter.
