Maybe slight boom period. Look at the different feds that have a national deal now 
I Really Do Feel Wrestling Is HEADED For A BOOM Period

It depends. With TNA's current status and still no season 2 confirmation for Lucha Underground the 'boom' could be over before it has even started. Either way there will be no true boom until the arrival of a major mainstream crossover superstar.

Its not that deep breh....
I do not understand where all this boom period talk is coming from.
Remember in 07 and 08 it was just basically WWE? TNA was on at 11 P.M. on Saturday nights on SPIKE. Wrestling came a long way since then.

Same.
Heyo, didn't you forget about the Kofi & Bourne tag team, Air Boom?
Seriousness though, the reason why there was such a boom was because of two things.- The Monday Night Wars, forcing each promotion to step up their game.
- Creditable Main Eventers at the Time; Sting, Ric Flair, and Hogan for WCW and Undertaker, Stone Cold, and The Rock for WWF

Smooth sailing from here on out...
This is the best time in a while to be a fan because of all the different choices, but this isn't a boom period coming because there is no real challenger to WWE.
TNA is extremely close to folding.
Lucha Underground has yet to be approved for Season 2.
The can't miss element of Raw is completely gone now.
I don't see another boom period coming anytime soon.
Have you been following TNA news? Their roster is anemic and they just lost their second TV deal in a year.

People keep bringing up the fact that competition for another boom is needed but I'm not 100% sure. WWF had the clear advantage mainstream wise in the 80s while other companies left were still putting on good shows so it's possible.

Things were getting more widespread than EVER under the Bryan banner...the reactions on Raw, Smackdown, and PPV have been down dramatically...motherfukker had that crowd at near RIOT level in Chicago in that Stephanie promo where Brie slapped her for quitting. You don't hear that anymore...there's some cute split Cena chants but he's not really drawing on that level because he doesn't sell out arenas or get ratings up like Bryan was doing.
there isn't TNA is in shambles, LU isn't confirmed for a 2nd seaons, GFW doesn't even have a network, ROH just got moved to another time slot, NJPW expanding into america with WK9 wasn't the huge success folks had hoped for.
Wrestling simply isn't popular anymore...
