Big mistake...dont get it...the attitude era was so succesful becoz it was risky an unique it catered to teenagers and young adults!

Not like it really matters to me anymore. I barely pay attention to Raw as it is, and once Heroes comes back in September, thats the end of my 10 year streak as a WWE fan.

You know what I really don't understand about this? It's the fact that the WWE seems content on moving backwards and going back to the days when their business was at an all-time low. Do they not remember that the Attitude era was when ratings improved because they got a lot more edgier?
Nah...they'd rather give away a million dollars instead.

Nobody gives a crap about WWE or wrestling in general anymore, so thinking that storylines relative to the Attitude era would bring fans back, is just pointless. Casual/bandwagon fans have left and aren't coming back in the same magnitude that they once were ever again.
I actually liked the mid-90s for certain wrestlers, but again, the workrate isn't the same in 2008 as it was when guys like Bret, Owen, Davey Boy, Shawn and others were working the main event scene.
It'll be tough to deal with now that most of us are older and have experienced the Attitude era, but WWE has seen a lot worse and I don't anticipate it getting 1995-bad any time soon.

I still dont get how a bland, boring, pale, ROIDED UP wannabe soldier appeals to kids...... Man...most of us hate Cena, but we all know he is clean. And do you ever think it will turn TV-Y or TV-G? I hope not.

This aint good, hell, come on WWE, give us more violence, give us more adult-like storylines, the children aren't the ones who will be behind you, and have been for the last 10years, we are, we growup, start to keep up with us

let me get this straight, they want to appeal to kids, but they shove a diva posing for playboy every year down our throats? Not saying I don't enjoy that, but I'm not a kid either. Honestly, if it weren't for the old school guys like hbk, edge, and taker I wouldn't even tune in. Orton, mickie, jericho, and melina are the only other stars that I enjoy watching so much that I tape raw these days and watch it afterwards so I can fast forward to their segments and skip the rest, and thats really sad when I have to go out of my way like that just to skip all the garbage they put on.

You have to remember, it will probably be PG with the following.
* V for moderate violence and * S for mild sexual situations * L for mild coarse language * D for dialogue and suggestive/sexual themes
America has sub-ratings giving leeway to shows.

They are trying to make it towards kids then they wonder why they get such low ratings. Dumbasses.
