More or less, the Attitude era ended with Vince buying WCW and Austin turning heel. Based on that, what would today's WWE roster look like if ONLY wrestlers who debuted in the Fed AFTER 2002 were around? Could WWE have a credible roster of only wrestlers who appeared after the boom had ended? Or do they thrive too much on the Attitude and late New Gen stars?

Well, if I understand this correctly, I don't think there would be much of a change. The majority of today's roster debuted after the Invasion angle. The big names I can think of who didn't are Triple H, Undertaker, Kane, Edge, and Big Show. Cena, Orton, Mysterio...all in the clear for WWE.

Makes one wonder if WWE could thrive solely on a post-Attitude roster.

No Goldust, Christian, Regal or Mark Henry either, so the lower and mid cards would lose some folks as well.

Let's figure this out. Here's what the rosters would look like:
Raw:
* Alicia Fox * Bella Twins * CM Punk * Daniel Bryan * Darren Young * David Hart Smith * David Otunga * Evan Bourne * Eve Torres * Ezekiel Jackson * Gail Kim * Heath Slater * Jey Uso * Jillian * Jimmy Uso * John Cena * John Morrison * Justin Gabriel * Justin Roberts * Maryse * Melina * Michael Tarver * Natalya * Primo Colón * Randy Orton * Ranjin Singh * Santino Marella * Sheamus * Skip Sheffield * Tamina * Ted DiBiase * The Great Khali * The Miz * Tyson Kidd * Vladimir Kozlov * Wade Barrett * Yoshi Tatsu * Zack Ryder
SmackDown:
* Alberto Del Rio * Beth Phoenix * Caylen Croft * Chris Masters * Cody Rhodes * Curt Hawkins * Dolph Ziggler * Drew McIntyre * Hornswoggle * Jack Swagger * Joey Mercury * JTG * Kelly Kelly * Kofi Kingston * Layla * Luke Gallows * Matt Striker * Michelle McCool * MVP * Rey Mysterio * Rosa Mendes * Shad Gaspard * Theodore R. Long * Tiffany * Todd Grisham * Trent Barreta * Vance Archer * Vickie Guerrero
Hm. Actually, those rosters look pretty good (assuming some other new talent was signed or called up). Almost makes me wish WWE would take the plunge and release the pre-2002 stars.
