What stuff from the Attitude Era do you miss that we'll likely never see again? I've been watching the Era again, starting from '97 and man... it's not the nostalgia goggles, it really is so much better.
I doubt we'll ever see them do matches featuring smaller promotions/indies again, like they were doing with USWA. We'll never see Pretty Peter Avalon representing NWA Hollywood vs. El Generico from ROH in a straight match.
And Lawler's commentary... I haven't laughed/been shocked at Lawler so hard in years.

Yeah, you'll never see Lawler act like that again.
LBGT organizations would flip if Jerry Lawler called Goldust a "flaming fag" uncesnored happened on today's TV.

One thing I'll miss are the hot crowds that could manage to get excited for everyone and everything.

Entertaining card from top to bottom.
Somehow I used to care about the Salvatore Sincere and Savio Vega matches of the card.

If we had those types of hot crowds today, imagine how much louder the Uso chant would be, or how loud the Titus O'Neil dog bark would be. Even better, the ENTIRE area doing YES! YES! YES! for D Bry.

Chyna, unless she cleans up her act.
WWe 13's "Rise of DX" chapter pretends she doesn't exist to an amazing degree.

Just the "Anything Can Happen!" vibe from the show.
Today, you can watch the first segment of Raw and know how the ending will play out. Everything is so structured to a point where it has hurt any expectation of the unexpected.

Everything is so structured to a point where it has hurt any expectation of the unexpected. That and it all looks too "glitzy". I preferred the steel structure and one video wall to the big HD set, it's like something out of X Factor or American Idol.

When something would happen backstage back in the day it felt nowhere near as staged and produced as todays.

Watching some old stuff earlier, and while it didn't happen in a WWF ring during the Attitude Era...how about a WWF wrestler beating a WCW wrestler for the ECW Title?
That and surprise debuts.
