@team 6 Pro combined 1800-1975 then combined 1976-81 then each year gets a video up to 2010 or so, because after that gets too recent thus boring.

@RataStuey 3 года назад

Agreed. This is awesome.

Agreed. I stumbled on this video one night before going to bed & ended it early. I’m gonna have to come back & watch the rest.

@jaycerrito3142 3 года назад

I'd love to see a video on wrestling in 2002 since it was a transitional year especially for WWE. TNA and ROH were both born, the WWF had to legally change its name to WWE and Cena, Orton, Lesnar and Batista made their televised debut and of course the beginning of the Ruthless Aggression era

@eastsidereviews727 3 года назад

2001 is a true watershed year for professional wrestling. Few years are as long term important as 2001 with the end of WCW and ECW, the end of the Attitude Era and the Monday Night Wars, Austin turning heel. Even smaller stuff like Jerry Lawler quitting and Chyna's exit from the WWF.

@jacksonloram7887 2 года назад

With all due respect I'd honestly say that 2002 was the transitional year from the Attitude era to the Ruthless Aggression. 2002 was the last time Rock and Stone Cold were full time competitors.

@stanleymcclainii7807 Год назад

I agree sir...I loved professional wrestling through the end of the 80s and all of the 90s...2001 was a awesome,and I loved it...I still wish WCW could have survived though,as I remember turning back and forth between RAW and Nitro...

The business peaked in 2001. Dont get me wrong, we have got a LOT of great stuff in wrestling in the last 20 years but objectively speaking, wrestling was never as hot as it was from 1996-01. The boom period ended in 2001.

@Richard__Cranium 3 года назад

I still say the Invasion wasn't nearly as bad as people have made it out to be. Yes, in hindsight it could've and probably should've been so much more than it ended up being but it was still very entertaining in my opinion. Not knowing who might pop up or switch allegiances made every week can't miss stuff. The shows always genuinely felt lively, spontaneous, and like anything could happen at any moment. Did it live up to its fullest potential? No. Not at all. Was the majority of it entertaining in the moment? I'd say so.

This year I seem to remember more as a whole than any other year. Maybe it’s the company wide storyline after the rush of the WM build. Seeing Benoit vs. Austin on SmackDown in Edmonton (which got match of the year, correct me if I’m wrong) and then, at years end, watching Jericho become Undisputed Champ… 2001 wasn’t completely bad. RVD’s exciting debut and run definitely had my interest too.
