5 WWE Attitude Era Superstars you forgot you used to love

#4 Vader

The Man They Call Vader was a big hit in the Attitude Era

While the Attitude Era boasted a huge roster of varying talents, shapes and sizes, there were few more powerful than Vader.

The Rocky Mountain Monster first made a big impression on WWE in 1996, challenging for the WWE title against Shawn Michaels at Summerslam of that year as a heel.

Not long after the debut of Kane in WWE, the Big Red Machine made Vader one of his first victims, leading to the two having a match that Kane dominated, before visciously assualting the big man with a wrench, cracking him right over the head.

Vader: One of the Attitude Era's top big men

Unfortunately, while Vader returned to action soon after, he never quite reached the heights as a babyface that he did while working as a heel, and promptly left WWE with the Attitude Era still in full flow in 1998.

It will ALWAYS be Vader Time. #RIPVader https://t.co/Zg50TuP5v2

Vader was, of course, an established wrestling star both before and after his time in WWE during the Attitude Era, starring for various promotions around the world. He sadly died in 2018.
