I understand that but damn the way they handled that was just ugh.....at least have Scooby get attacked by Sandow and have Sin Cara make a save, or have Scooby chair shot Sandow. I'm not the "BRING DA ADDITUDE ERA BACK" guy but at least keep Raw respectable. Saturday Morning Slam, Slam City.....no problem, there's a time and place for that and I don't want it on Raw...... The match was literally one minute long, and it was strictly to hype up the movie. They're not developing content around Scooby Doo. It was a one time thing and didn't take time away from anything else. Get over it.

The way I see it:
Hulkamania: Hogan's reign in 1984 to the WWF Title being vacated in December 1991 Golden Era: WWF Title vacated in December 1991 to Yokozuna beating Hogan at King of the Ring 1993 New Generation: Yokozuna beating Hulk Hogan at KoTR 1993 to Bret turning heel in 1997 Attitude Era: Bret turning heel in 1997 to the acquisition of WCW in 2001 Ruthless Aggression: The acquisition of WCW in 2001 to Cena's and Batista's rises in 2005 "Back to Basics": Cena's and Batista's rises in 2005 to the incident in 2007 "The Dark Ages": The incident in 2007 to the Nexus's debut in 2010 "The Renaissance": The Nexus's debut in 2010 to present
The names for the last 3 are just placeholders and such but the point I'm making is we've been in the same era of wresting in my eyes since the middle of 2010.

So are we really in a new era? Is the PG Era over? Vickie called AJ a bitch last night. RIP Brain Damage. he is missed. But anyone who says this isn't the Reality Era is in denial. If WWE wants this to be the Reality Era, it will be that.

Cena's ''heel turn'' joke on RAW pretty much cemented that we're in the reality era, even though Punk created it in the summer of 2011.

I definitely think we're entering a new era. I don't think we're getting Attitude Era 2.0 or anything, but there are some similarities.
Just look at how outspoken the fans are compared to a few years ago. They pick and choose who they want to cheer for and who they want to boo. I think it's gotten to the point where almost every crowd is a smark crowd, and it's not just in certain cities. And I have no problem with it at all.

I think the term, "reality era" really fits with where the company is headed.

'Reality Era' just sounds weird and stupid. It does kinda fit in with the current product. I hope a new era is coming where we see the rise of Bryan, Shield, Wyatts, Cesaro etc. We need Punk back to carry the company along with Bryan and less Cena/Orton.

I'm not the "BRING DA ADDITUDE ERA BACK" guy but at least keep Raw respectable. Raw was never respectable. In any era, it has always had hokey pro-wrestling ridiculousness. It's very silly to get butthurt over a little Scooby Doo promotion on a TV show that gave us: Unless you'd never watched an episode before last week, and someone just told you that wrestling is serious business and should never be fun or silly.

First of all my butt is fine thank you very much...... I am not saying highbrow respectable......respectable in the sense of staying away from a G TV rating. It wasn't that big of a deal, I didn't realize my post looks like a raving rant but I must have got carried away. I am not that upset about it but it was painful to watch when we are trying strive for something at least a little above PG......

We might be in the "Reality Sucks" era.......lol.......i really dont care what they call it s long as things dont get as lame as they did in 2009-2010. The wrestling on the ppv cards was pretty good. Even Smackdown housed some good straight up matches. But man a lot of those Raws from post Mania 25 until the Nexus debut were pretty awful to watch. I didnt mind the idea of scaling back some of the Attitude Eras risque stuff.......but man they nuetered everything in those early PG days. There were episodes of Spongebob with more believable conflict than the uber sanitized storylines and writing going on then.
