Hey everybody,

I hope you've been watching some of my promo video picks, putting you in the mood to watch some of the greatest that Youtuve has to offer. Youtube is fantastic, it has all our memories stored in case we ever forget.

We've already seen my RA era promo's from summer 2002 to the end of 2004, this is part 2, including my 10 picks from January 2005 ranging until December 2006.

As it was in my last few blogs, no need for me to describe what's going on, the video's are here to do that.

John Cena v JBL - WrestleMania 21







Randy Orton v Undertaker - Armagddon 2005

Hi all,

I've only started blogging here two days ago. Not really proper blogs (they will come later), but just tributes to the excellent production team in WWE.

I have picked 10 from the attitude era, the post attitude era, and now from the Ruthless Aggression era. It's hard to know when this era ended, so I'm going to do it from June 2002 - Dec 2004, Jan 2005 - Dec 2006 and Jan 2007 - Aug 2008 (When PG era officially began.

So this is going to be 10 vid's that I think are the best from June 2002 to December 2004 from the Ruthless Aggression era. They are the one's that personally did and still do give me goosebumps. Not all these ended up being classic matches, or even classic feuds, but they made the match seem very epic, as they always try to make it out to be.

In the last two blogs, I haven't gone into detail on the matches, because the video's should give all the info you need.

Let's get to it.


Triple H v Kevin Nash - Bad Blood 2003







Triple H v Goldberg - Unforgiven 2003







Stone Cold Steve Austin v The Rock - WrestleMania XIX







Hulk Hogan v Mr McMahon - WrestleMania XIX (Epic)







Chris Jericho v Shawn Michaels - WrestleMania XIX (If you haven't noticed, WM 19 is must see)







Big Show v Brock Lesnar - Survivor Series 2002 (One of the best PPV's ever)







Randy Orton v Mick Foley - Backlash 2004







Kane v Rob Van Dam - Summerslam 2003







Eddie Guerrero v JBL - Great American Bash







Triple H v Chris Benoit v Shawn Michaels - WrestleMania XX

Hi everybody, I hope you liked my blog yesterday if you happened to check it out, it is basically the same as this one except I picked my 10 favourite attitude era promo's. It was hard to pick 10, I could pick 50 easily, and that should be the same for the rest of my series on promo video's. I am getting started in this kind of gig and WWE promo vid's are the best. I absolutely love them, and I know I'm not alone.

All these video's are selected for big matches on PPV, no show opening vid's (maybe some other time). I was going to do this on the Ruthless Aggression era, but I'll leave that for next. It would be foolish to not include the year or so before the ruthless aggression time, which technically is best known as the post-attitude era.

Since the RA era kicked off in June 2002, this will range from April 2001 to May 2002. Let's kick this into gear.

Side note: There is no need for me to give any description of the feud's themselves, the video's will provide all the magic.


Stone Cold Steve Austin v Chris Jericho v Chris Benoit - King of The Ring 2001



Inaugural Brawl - Invasion 2001



Stone Cold Steve Austin v Kurt Angle v Rob Van Dam - No Mercy 2001



The Undertaker v The Rock - No Way Out 2002 (My fave ever, this promo is perfect imo)



Undertaker v Ric Flair - WrestleMania X8 (Undertaker's heel turn was my favorite thing when it happened, everything was gold)



Hollywood Hulk Hogan v The Rock - WrestleMania X8 (Hulk Hogan returning was as epic as it gets)



Shane McMahon v Kurt Angle - King of The RIng 2001



Stone Cold Steve Austin v Kurt Angle - Unforgiven 2001



Chris Jericho v The Rock - No Mercy 2001



Team WWF v Team Alliance - Survivor Series 2001 (absolutely massive)



Hope you enjoy. Any suggestions feel welcome to post links or comment.

I'm looking forward to my first blog. I like doing lists. I like them a lot. My favourite thing about WWE is definitely promo vid's, hell, I'm doing a film editing course and WWE vid's are the reason I'm pursuing it - I'm excited to get started.



So, if I'm doing my first blog, I couldn't think of a better subject to do it on. As I'm fonder of the attitude era than any other time in wrestling, I will dedicate this blog to that time. For the next I'm going to do best movies of the ruthless aggression era.

Just so you know, and you will see anyway, these are all vid's for big matches. If I was selecting from ad promo's, specific superstar promo's this would never get done.

Some of these are from feuds that were great (it was the attitude era) but not memorable in the grander scheme of things. So if I forget any let me know. You could easily make this a top 50 list. These are in no particular order so please send some suggestions.

Side note: I am just going to post the vid's, because the promo can tell the story of the feud better than I ever can. According to WWE, Attitude Era ended after WrestleMania X7, so that's the basis for this.
