The Attitude Era was host to some of the biggest names in wrestling, such as The Undertaker, 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin, Mick Foley and The Rock.

And whilst Superstars like this had some great matches, this often came down to the characters being used, as the majority of the matches taking place simply wasn't good.

Outside of the main event scene, matches on RAW and SmackDown were often minutes long, and usually were ended by some outside interference.

Compare that to today, when the ruthless business tactics of Vince McMahon has given the WWE Universe the very best talent.

Superstars like AJ Styles, Seth Rollins, Finn Balor, Adam Cole, and Tomasso Ciampa are able to give lengthy, excellent matches each and every week.
