It is now time to rebook the WWE Championship, this time we move on to the Attitude Era. But before we do let's look at the Championship Title Changes from The Golden Era and The New Generation Era
Golden Era:
Hulk Hogan (5)
Roddy Piper (1)
Paul Orndorff (1)
Andre The Giant (1)
Ted Dibiase (1)
Randy Savage (1)
Mr. Perfect (1)
Ultimate Warrior (1)
The Undertaker (1)
Ric Flair (1)
Bret Hart (1)

Shawn Michaels (2)
Razor Ramon (2)
The Undertaker (1)
Diesel (1)
Sycho Sid (1)
Owen Hart (1)
Yokozuna (1)
Lex Luger (1)
Vader (1)
Shawn Michaels (11/9/97 to 12/27/97)
Yes, the Montreal Screwjob would occur with Michaels and McMahon both having a plan in Bret Hart's disappearance. After surviving a Buried Alive Match with The Undertaker at In Your House. Owen Hart would return to ruin Shawn's aftermatch celebration by attacking him, that would lead to a match at Saturday Night's Main Event with Shawn and Owen.
Owen Hart (12/27/97 to 1/18/98)
Owen would win the WWF Championship for the second time at Saturday Night's Main Event avenging his brother Bret Hart and would remain the champion for a good few weeks until Shawn Michaels demanded his rematch clause at the 1998 Royal Rumble in a Ladder Match.
Shawn Michaels (1/18/98 to 3/29/98)
But it would be The Heartbreak Kid that broke another Hart of the Hart Family when he won the title back at the 1998 Royal Rumble in a Ladder Match despite being injured. Michaels would move on to face Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 14 with the WWF Championship on the line and with Mike Tyson joining DX. The Odds were stacked against Austin.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (3/29/98 to 6/28/98)
It was the worst corporate nightmare for Vince McMahon and more so Shawn Michaels. At WrestleMania 14. The Austin 3:16 era had begun. In Austin's first title defense, he would overcome some roadblocks even when Hulk Hogan made his return in May of 1998. Hogan seemed to be a supporter for Austin and would do so at the 1998 King of The Ring when Austin faced Kane for the title in where stipulations stated that if Kane lost the match and didn't win the title. He would set himself on fire.
Kane (6/28/98 to 7/26/98)
Kane was now untop of the mountain after 8 months of his arrival, he was now the WWF Champion. Austin had demanded a rematch against Kane but it wouldn't be the next night, no no no no. It would be at Fully Loaded for the WWF Championship. But before the match could start. Austin was found knocked out backstage and Hulk Hogan would take Austin's place.
Hollywood Hulk Hogan (7/26/98 to 8/30/98)
At Fully Loaded. Hogan took Austin's place and defeated Kane to become a record setting 6-time WWF Champion. But the next night on RAW. Hogan would attack Austin turning him heel in the process that would set up the potential dream match at Summerslam 1998 at Madison Square Garden with Austin facing Hogan for the title as the die hard wrestling fans had visioned to see this match.
We're going to pretend Hogan's sixth WWF Title win is the WCW Championship.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (8/30/98 to 9/27/98)
Austin would win back the title at Summerslam for the second time over the Immortal One, but Vince made another plan to simply screw Stone Cold out of the WWF Title, and that was be forced in a Triple Threat Match against Kane and The Undertaker at Breakdown.
The Undertaker (9/27/98 to 10/26/98)
But it was the master plan that The Undertaker would use to his power by screwing both Kane and Stone Cold Steve Austin of the WWF Championship and capturing his third WWF Championship reuniting with Paul Bearer again and forming a soon to be Ministry of Darkness, at Judgment Day. Austin would be fired when he refused to count The Undertaker and Kane down, instead the match was declared a draw meaning Taker would still be Champion, but it would be Shane McMahon eight days later that would rehire Austin.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (10/26/98 to 11/15/98)
With Austin's rehiring, he would defeat The Undertaker on RAW is WAR to gain back his third WWF Championship. McMahon hatched another plan since Austin was now the WWF Champion. McMahon booked Austin in a 1998 Survivor Series Elimination Match for the WWF Championship in where if Austin's team lost. Austin would lose the WWF Championship, but if another member of Austin's team won or was the sole survivor. Then that team member would be the WWF Champion. Austin's team would be Hollywood Hulk Hogan, The Rock, Kane and Owen Hart against the team of Mankind, The Undertaker, Jeff Jarrett, Mark Henry and Ken Shamrock with Shane McMahon as the guest referee.
Hollywood Hulk Hogan (11/15/98 to 1/4/99)
At the 1998 Survivor Series. Hogan would turn on Austin and rejoin the Corporation and plus eliminating Mankind to win his seventh WWF Championship. Hogan would officially join the Corporation, Yes i'm replacing Hogan for The Rock cause I got big plans for The Rock in this as well. McMahon knocked Austin out of the title picture for a while as he was forced to face The Undertaker in a Buried Alive Match at Rock Bottom. Hogan would deal with the deranged one Mankind with Mankind asking for a title match against Hogan.
Mankind (1/4/99 to 1/24/99)
It would be Mankind's destiny to acheive his dream on that Monday Night RAW defeating Hollywood Hogan with help from Stone Cold Steve Austin. Hogan was content on using his rematch clause at the 1999 Royal Rumble and would challenge Mankind to a I Quit Match for the WWF Championship.
Hollywood Hulk Hogan (1/24/99 to 3/28/99)
But it would be Hogan ending Mankind's 3-week reign as WWF Champion at the 1999 Royal Rumble by sadistically beating him down in a I Quit Match and also defeating Mankind at Halftime Heat as well. Hogan would stay Champion against Mankind surviving grueling title defenses against him until he would face the 1999 Royal Rumble Winner The Rock at WrestleMania 15. Yes I know, The Rock. Because we need to have The Rock stay a face and not join the Corporation.
The Rock (3/28/99 to 5/23/99)
At WrestleMania 15. The People's Champion Era had begun as he defeated Hogan cleanly to regain the WWF Championship at WrestleMania 15 in the iconic dream matchup. Now with The People's Champion as Champion. His first title defense would be against The Rattlesnake at Backlash in where the two put on one hell of a fight, but the Ministry of Darkness would ruin the match as The Undertaker abducted Stephanie McMahon in the limousine, that would force a Triple Threat Match at Over The Edge between The Rock, Steve Austin and The Undertaker.
The Undertaker (5/23/99 to 7/25/99)
At Over The Edge. The Deadman would reclaim the WWF Championship once again for the fourth time over The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin. The Deadman had it all, the Ministry of Darkness, Jake Roberts as the Higher Power but there was one more thing he wanted, was the whole World Wrestling Federation. Undertaker wanted it all, at Fully Loaded, it stated that if the Phenom did beat Austin. Vince McMahon would lose control of the World Wrestling Federation.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (7/25/99 to 8/22/99)
But it would be saved by Stone Cold Steve Austin, Vince would stay in power once and for all, But Austin didn't have time to enjoy a one month reign as WWF Champion, as the 1999 King of The Ring Winner Triple H cashed in his title opportunity at Summerslam.
Triple H (8/22/99 to 9/16/99)
The Game's opportunity was at hand, and at Summerslam 1999. He rolled the dice by defeating Austin to become the WWF Champion, but after the match. He would physically attack Austin and put him on the shelf. With The Game's reign as Champion for 3 weeks it seemed like he could not be stopped, until Triple H issued an open challenge on September 16, 1999 and that open challenge surprisingly was accepted by Hulk Hogan who was back in the red and yellow gear.

Hulk Hogan (9/16/99 to 9/26/99)
Hulkamania once more would run wild by winning his ninth WWF Championship over The Game on SMACKDOWN. But Hogan would have a short 10-day reign as Champion as Triple H would come to collect it back at Unforgiven.
Triple H (9/26/99 to 11/14/99)
The Game would destroy the legacy of Hulkamania at Unforgiven and would recapture the WWF Championship for the second time. The Game was now set to face The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin at the 1999 Survivor Series with Triple H reuniting D-Generation X once more, it seemed like The Game would not be stopped, but after Stone Cold got run down. Somebody would take Stone Cold's place.

Mankind (11/14/99 to 1/23/00)
And that somebody was Mankind. After 10 months of being shafted out of his first WWF Championship by Hogan at the 1999 Royal Rumble. Mankind would recapture the title at the 1999 Survivor Series filling in for Stone Cold Steve Austin and Triple H. Mankind remained Champion throughout the end of 1999 and even through the McMahon-Helmsley Regime. At the 2000 Royal Rumble. Triple H was determined to win back the title over Mankind in a Street Fight Match.
Triple H (1/23/00 to 4/2/00)
At the 2000 Royal Rumble. The Game would end up defeating Mankind in the Brutal Street Fight Match, But Mick Foley's other face Cactus Jack would show up at the 2000 Royal Rumble Match and win the Royal Rumble Match to face Triple H at WrestleMania 16 for the WWF Championship in a Hell in A Cell Match.
Cactus Jack (4/2/00 to 4/3/00)
Mick Foley wanted to have one more dream before retiring for good, the night after the Royal Rumble. Mick Foley known as Cactus Jack would announce his retirement, win or lose. He would retire, but he would be determined to win the WWF Championship one last time, and at WrestleMania 16. His dream would come true with Cactus Jack despite being thrown through the cell two times and despite being put on thumbtacks. Cactus would defeat Triple H with help from Stone Cold Steve Austin and would capture the WWF Title for the last time.
Vacant (4/3/00 to 4/30/00)
After, Mick Foley would vacate the championship after announcing his retirement and it would lead to a 32-man tournament with the final 2 going to Backlash to face off for the WWF Championship. The final two would be Triple H and The Rock.
The Rock (4/30/00 to 11/19/00)
After a year of losing the WWF Championship. The Rock was back untop of the mountain by becoming the 2-time WWF Champion. The Rock would hold on as champion for the remainder of 7 months defending the championship against all comers, but at the 2000 Survivor Series. He would face Kurt Angle for the title.
Kurt Angle (11/19/00 to 1/21/01)
Just one year after his debut, the Olympic Gold Medalist would regain the WWF Championship at the 2000 Survivor Series cleanly after defeating The Rock by making The Rock submit to the anklelock, Angle would remain champion for the remainder of 2 months until the 2001 Royal Rumble when he had to face Triple H. The man who was responsible for running over Austin with Shawn Michaels as his accomplice.
Triple H (1/21/01 to 2/25/01)
The Game would once again defeat Angle at the 2001 Royal Rumble with of course help from his friend Shawn Michaels, but The Game would not hold on to the title for long. Triple H would rekindle his rivalry once more with The Rock at the 2001 No Way Out.
The Rock (2/25/01 to 4/1/01)
At No Way Out. The Rock walking into WrestleMania as WWF Champion would not be denied as He would defeat Triple H at No Way Out to capture his third WWF Championship, the WrestleMania 17 dream match between The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin would eventually happen as two of the best would face off for the title.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (4/1/01 to 10/21/01)
The Rattlesnake was back untop of the mountain once again as he defeated The Rock at WrestleMania 17 to win the WWF Championship, there was no heel turn by Austin. Austin would go through the list of competitors that would try to dethrone him, but when the WCW Invasion rolled around and when the nWo attacked The Rock and Stone Cold Steve Austin, nobody in the WWF was safe with the Invaders running around, At No Mercy. Hollywood Hulk Hogan would get another shot at the WWF Championship as he pinned Austin at Unforgiven.
Hollywood Hulk Hogan (10/21/01 to 3/17/02)
For the 10th straight time, Hollywood Hulk Hogan would recapture the title at No Mercy with help from the NWO. Hogan would remain Champion for the better part of 5 months with the nWo and WCW taking over everything, at the 2002 Royal Rumble. Austin would win the 2002 Royal Rumble once again and would challenge Hogan at WrestleMania 18 for the WWF Championship.
Stone Cold Steve Austin (3/17/02 to 8/25/02)
At WrestleMania 18. Austin finally regained the title for the sixth time over Hogan in another dream match, WCW would be gone but McMahon would keep the rest of the entire WCW Superstars for a brand extension meaning that it was time for a new change in the Ruthless Aggression Era. Austin would stay champion for 5 months, and at Summerslam 2002. He would face the King of The Ring Winner Brock Lesnar for the WWE Championship.
