#1. Suck it! (D-Generation X)
To say the WWF was culturally relevant during the Attitude Era is really quite the understatement.
While the company had enjoyed high levels of mainstream success in the 80s with the rise of Hulkamania and the Rock n' Wrestling Connection, nothing can compete with the deep-seated love and admiration a generation of young boys and girls held for the WWF throughout most of the late 90s and early 00s.

Vince McMahon needed to build up a credible challenge to WCW in 1997 and spent much of the year altering his approach to how he did television. Gone were the corny, family friendly storylines and characters, and in came controversy.
This was a shrewd move on Vince's part, as he knew that popular culture in the US was effectively morphing into one giant middle finger, flying in the face of all forms of authority.

With nothing seemingly left to care about or respect, one catchphrase would become the perfect outlet for this widely held, undirected frustration and anger - Suck it!
While the WWE can't exactly take credit for creating the 'Suck it' catchphrase, they were the reason why millions of schoolboys across the world were repeating it. And with D-Generation X at the helm of this new movement, professional wrestling, and the WWF, in particular, would never be the same again.
