10 Arguments WWE Fans Will Probably Never Stop Debating

We wrestling fans sure love to argue about stuff, don't we? That's because we're a passionate bunch who invest more than just the few televised hours of our time into the product. We think about it after the video feed cuts off. We analyze an event's happenings for days or even weeks afterward.

Simply put: we might care too much. And that makes it nearly impossible not to voice our opinions about something the WWE did or didn't do. This is the basis for the Internet Wrestling Community.

Quite frankly, not all of the things we opt to fight about in message boards or in the comments section of articles such as this one are even all that controversial or fundamental. But it doesn't matter, because it matters to us, dammit!

Every once in a while, the IWC comes to a complete consensus on a topic and surprises everyone. (For example, Dean Ambrose needs to stop doing the rebound clothesline every match.) But for the most part, there are very few common viewpoints.

Although most of these arguments eventually fade away, a select few of them just refuse to die. And it's entirely possible that we'll still be debating these points of contention for years to come.

All right, let's start this thing off with a softball. It's true that roughly 80 percent of all wrestling fans who were watching in the '90s believe the TV-14 period created a better, edgier product, and that the PG Era is too watered down to be taken very seriously by adult fans.

But those who enjoy the PG version of WWE programming even a little bit will often suggest that, yes, the Attitude Era was great and all, but we're usually looking back on it with Xtremely rose-tinted glasses. Because there was also a lot of s*** during those days that we tend to block out of our memories. Mae Young giving birth to a human hand is the go-to example of this.

Both eras have given us some stellar moments, so it seems unfair to write one off simply because it's trying to appeal to a wider audience.

And yet, there also seems to be a never-ending deluge of flaws coming down the pike with today's product. Are these negative factors worse than the imperfections of the Attitude Era?

Maybe. But also...maybe not?

It would be great to simply suggest everyone just watch the current version of programming if they want to, and turn on WWE Network to watch repeats of the Attitude Era if they prefer that, but we all know that's not how this works.
