Many people today say that WWE is nowhere near as good as it was during the period of time that came to be known as "The Attitude Era." WWE's Attitude Era featured Superstars and Divas such as "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Trish Stratus, Mick Foley, The Rock, Chris Jericho, William Regal, The Undertaker, Kane, D-Generation X, Sable, Sunny, Val Venis, Goldust, Terri Runnels, Jeff Jarrett, The Godfather, "Hardcore" Bob Holly, Crash Holly, Rikishi Phatu & Too Cool, The Hardy Boyz & Lita, The Dudley Boyz, Edge & Christian, The McMahon Family, and many more.

The exact start dates and end dates of the Attitude Era is debatable, but many people might say that it began in the year 1997, with the formation of D-Generation X, the rise of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, the rivalry between the Brothers of Destruction (The Undertaker and Kane), and the Montreal Screwjob involving Vince McMahon, Bret "The Hitman" Hart, and Shawn Michaels.

Many people agree that the Attitude Era ended after the conclusion of the Invasion storyline, which saw WWE's rivals World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) form an Alliance for brand supremecy. This war was ultimately won by WWE in late 2001, which put an end to WCW and ECW once and for all, though WWE would later revive ECW from 2006-2010.

Many people would agree that 2002 was the first year of WWE's new generation.
