While fans have been comparing the current era of WWE to the days of the Attitude Era, two-time WWE Hall of Famer Booker T recently spoke with “SHAK Wrestling” to discuss the comparisons between now and the Attitude Era, why fans need to move past the Attitude Era, and more.
You can check out some highlights from the podcast below:
On comparisons between now and the Attitude Era: “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.”
On needing to move past 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.”
Shawn Spears vs. Ridge Holland has been added to this week’s edition of NXT Spring Breakin’ (Night Two).
