Golden Age / Hulkamania Era (1982 - 1993) Birth of Hulkamania, inception of Wrestlemania, the era all flabbies are probably most fond of; Stars: Hogan, Savage, Warrior, Andre, Slaughter, DiBiase, Sheik, Jake
New Generation Era (1993 - 1997) Mid 90's period of stagnation, prelude to Monday Night Wars, worst financial years for the company, birth of Raw, HBK-Bret years; Stars: HBK, Hart, Diesel, Sid, Razor, Luger, Yoko
Attitude Era (1997 - 2002) The era we all know and love; Stars: Austin, Rock, Triple H, Mankind, Taker, Kane, Jericho, Angle, Tag Team Division
Ruthless Aggression Era (2002 - 2007) Brand split, name change, aftermath of MNW, new OVW stars, greater emphasis on the "athletes", La Nariz's reign of terror; Stars: Cena, Brock, Orton, Triple H, Eddie, Angle, Batista, Taker, Benoit, Mysterio, Diva's Division
PG Era (2007 - 2011) Post-Benoit era shift towards family-oriented product, WWECW, stricter wellness policy and all around corporate rebranding, stagnation as far as creation of main event stars, less fukkery based storylines; Stars: Cena, Orton, Hardy, Triple H, Undertaker, Edge, Batista, Miz, Mysterio, Jericho
Reality Era (2011 - 2015) Post-Punk pipebomb era of social media integration, lessened emphasis on kayfabe, transition period from old stars to new, WWE Network giving way to more nostalgia-based product, slow but sure changing of the guard from Vince/Ace/Dunn to Steph/HHH; Stars: Cena, Brock, Bryan, Punk, Orton, Del Rio, Sheamus, Ziggler
The New Era (2015 - ) Current era of indie signings, across the board shift towards improved in ring product, rise of NXT, return of brand split, revitalization of women's division; Stars: Reigns, Rollins, Ambrose, Styles, Balor, Sasha, New Day, ?
I got it Attitude, New Era, Ruthless, Reality, PG. Can't include Hulkamania or New Gen cuz I wasn't there for that
