For me WWE in particular began to die when the Attitude Era ended. It was as entertaining as anything on TV during that time as they featured a lot of adult-oriented content. Stars like Stone Cold and The Rock were fucking hilarious week in and week out, and there was a ton of ultra-violent and even sexual content. In the Early 2000's, for whatever reason, the WWE changed, and became more family friendly. For guys like me that grew up during the attitude era the new product seemed lame.
I heard that they changed their ways because of pressure put on them by shareholders when the company went public, but who really knows. At the end of the day it is basically just programming for kids now.
