Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 4 Paid Members Posted March 4 Now we all know that HHH doesn't want to be the centre of attention. It's not about him, it's about the talent. Now obviously that is a crock of shite, but we really should keep track of all those humble moments So on the WWE YouTube channel currently is this post: now i included the first comment because it sums it up perfectly. Austin and Rock are the Attitude era. Quote
BarryOVega Posted March 4 Posted March 4 Xpac and the Outlaws should be on there instead of the Dudleys or APA, suppose they don’t wanna show a picture of HHH from ‘98 cos of how different he looked a year later Quote
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted March 4 Paid Members Posted March 4 No Foley in sight either. Only the man who made Triple H as a main eventer. And I think when most think of the Attitude Era, Austin and Rock aside, surely Mankind getting hurled off and then through the cage in the Hell In A Cell is one of the defining moments of that entire era? I know he said recently that he’s not gonna be involved in anything WWE while Trump’s president but regardless, how do you leave Foley off that? Quote
wordsfromlee Posted March 4 Posted March 4 When thinking of wrestlers who defined the Attitude Era, I too think of D'Lo Brown. Quote

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted March 4 Paid Members Posted March 4 I know 2000 is counted as an Attitude era year but to me 98-99 are the real Attitude years and X-Pac, the New Age Outlaws and Mick Foley were absolute key acts. Quote
Paid Members Lion_of_the_Midlands Posted March 4 Author Paid Members Posted March 4 Undertaker looks a bit like Alex Shane in that picture. It's also noticeable that they use a New Age Outlaws quote at the start yet Road Dogg and Billy Gunn are not in the picture. Quote
Chili Posted March 4 Posted March 4 It can't be stated how incredibly uncool Triple H as a character is with the rest of the DX group in 1998 in retrospective watches. The Outlaws, X-Pac & Chyna feel cool and then he's very much 'the boyfriend of Chyna who happens to have a driving licence'. Naff as fuck. It's hilarious seeing how rattled he is by the rise of The Rock in 1998. Quote

I’m currently watching Over the Edge 1998 and it’s funny how The Outlaws and X-pac are always coming out in cool black T-shirts or tracksuits, whilst Hunter is wearing this monstrosity of a ring jacket. Looks so out of place. The least cool man alive. This must have been before he got his hands on the Best of Shane Douglas VHS. Quote
TheScarlettChad Posted March 4 Posted March 4 That coat is ghastly but the chainmail he wore was pretty bad too. Quote
Paid Members DCW Posted March 4 Paid Members Posted March 4 There was also that crap looking vest thing he used to wear in 99 too. Quote

I watched Bulldog vs The Rock from No Mercy 1999 the other day and in the build up package The Rock tells Bulldog "The Rock is going to whoop your candy ass and there's two things you can do about it...nothing...and like it". I was genuinely equal parts amused and devastated to realise Alex Shane's catchphrase was a random one liner The Rock said in the run up to a B level PPV. Quote
