I wouldn't even consider 2016-now as an era. I'd say 2015-2019 was its own era and 2020 on is its own. Its hard for me to relate 2016 or 2017's product to what we have seen from the company in the last year or so.
With that being said, whatever era is right now-- that one.
I haven't ever been so uninterested in WWE in every single way like I am right now. If AEW wasn't around, I don't know how I'd be getting my fix.

The PG era is the only time where I both stopped watching and stopped following wrestling. That said, it's coming close to getting there for me again right now for the WWE at least.

Whichever Era had Super Cena.
This current Era is becoming a very close second though.

Definitely whatever they have going on currently. I've never been more disinterested in wrestling in my life.

imo Attitude era ended in like 2000 or at least when WCW was bought. And i call it Invasion era from like 2001 to whatever.
never really watched any Ruthless Aggression era. But saw the action figures and played some of the videogames from that era, and the roster seemed pretty terrible

Whichever one was the most "entertainment" based.

Iβll start off by saying when they started switching to those giant LEDs for every stage. Granted I believe wrestling started to fizzle out in the last few years for me. We still had greats like the Undertaker, Kane to name a few. They were however imo, the last standing pioneers of their era. After that, I couldnβt really think of any other reasons to really tune into the product besides a few guys Iβve liked like Rollins, Reigns, Ambrose, Neville etc. Itβs weird because you would think as time progress things should improve, but I reached that point where the product no longer excites me. Everything is so cookie cutter, cheesy and watered downed if you ask me. Iβve watched some highlights on WWEβs YouTube channel and it seems like every other week someone loses by a roll up pin. Itβs super predictable... I still enjoy Reigns, which imo is carrying Smackdown, Rollins is doing a fantastic job, Edge, Rey Mysterio, even Lashley. The Fiend was an awesome character too which WWE ruined. I think he was so good that heβd fit in any other era imo. After that, I have no recollection or know who any of these new characters are. I understand that WWE wants to appeal to a younger audience, but their current product speak a lot about them. The belts donβt even look like belts anymore. Itβs just a generic logo, same with the stages a giant LED with no afterthoughts. I lowkey hope I lose interest in wrestling altogether to focus on other things, but I donβt think weβll ever reach the entertainment that we did from any other eras.

Reality era ? When was it called that Triple H called it that once or twice on Raw. And it never took off, especially since there was nothing reality about it. You can call 2014-2016 the Authority Era because every Raw during that 2-2.5 year period revolved around Stephanie and HHH. |

True, I'd just go ahead and add it to the most recent era, its the same format with the same wrestlers pretty much. |

You have to admit that epic stuff happened during that period. |

New Era. The PG and Reality Eras were bleak, but atleast the presentation was unique and PPVs still had their own stages and looks. And say what you will about them, but Cena and Batista came off as legit stars (not on the level of an Austin and Rock, but a few steps above everyone today, including Roman).
Everything today is the same. Same entrance stages. Same matches. Same commentary. Same bland characters. Same everything.

Iβd add the Pandemic Era to the list of choices, early 2020 to mid 2021.

Once WCW died WWE went downhill. Smackdown was briefly good during the RA era but that didn't last.
From 13/16 this got pretty interesting again with Bryan vs the Authority and The Shield, but once the brand split returned things fell pretty quickly.

It's hard to say. Since WWE went PG in 2008 WWE has been consistently getting worse. So right now is probably my least favourite. I did like late 2013 however. I thought Bryan and Shield were really good then.

Angle, Benoit, Lesnar and Guerrero from 2002-04 were GOAT. |
