WWE Hall Of Famer Discusses Comparisons Between Current Era & Attitude Era

WWE

WWE Hall of Famer and NXT commentator Booker T has discussed the comparisons between the current era and the Attitude Era.

At WWE WrestleMania 40, the company opened both nights of the event with Triple H and Stephanie McMahon touting a new era for the promotion.

Since Triple H came into power, WWE has seen various changes that has improved the overall product and led to the best business success for the company since the Attitude Era.

With the recent return of The Rock and records being broken, the comparisons to the Attitude Era have been vast and frequent.

Speaking with CBS Sports’ Shakiel Mahjouri (via SHAK Wrestling), Booker T was asked to comment on the comparisons between the current “Renaissance Era” and the Attitude Era. He answered:

“The Attitude Era is something that we’re always gonna talk about. It’s always gonna be something that was part of your life, my life, in some way, shape, or form.”

“But I do understand what guys like Cody is talking about, as far as this era now. This is their era.”

“Is it better than the Attitude Era? Well, to them, they should want to try to make it better than the Attitude Era.”

“The thing is, we can’t talk about the Attitude Era forever. We’re gonna have to move past this sooner or later.”

“We’re gonna have to start talking about this next generation [laughs], the Roman Reigns and Cody Rhodes of the world and their legacy and their ‘Attitude Era’ that they created.”

“So I understand it, I get it. If I was in Cody Rhodes’ shoes, Drew McIntyre, any of these young guys, I would feel the exact same way,”

Cody Rhodes previously coined the term “Renaissance Era,” while others in WWE have referred to the current era as “The Triple H Era.”

Rhodes will defend the Undisputed WWE Championship against AJ Styles this Saturday, May 4 at WWE Backlash. For the full lineup for the show, click here.
