Do you feel one of the missed touches from the Attitude Era (and to an extent, the Ruthless Aggression era also) is how wrestlers who weren't necessarily involved in each other's stories would still interact with each other, and made WWE feel like more of a community? Nowadays, it feels like wrestlers are just kind of locked onto whoever they're feuding with, accompanied with a throw-away match against others roughly in a similar position to them on the card.

Absolutely. There is almost zero crossover outside of a feud or a story and it feels weird.Originally Posted by Fallout
What can you tell me about Candi Divine from the AWA?
Rhea, Bianca, Mandy, Tiffany, and Raquel featuring Scarlett
She was one of the bigger names of her day but it was the dark times for women's wrestling. Basically if there was anyone popular she would get that one spot and Divine had it for awhile. That's really about all there is about her: she was one of the women who wrestled in the 80s. There wasn't much more depth than that back in the day.
How much do you think the exodus of top stars in 2010 from the main event scene affected the next set main evente4s WWE tried to create?
Off the top of my head they lost Batista, 'Taker went yo once a year, Shawn was gone, Jericho went, kane took a step back. I'm sure there are more I could be missing.
Do you think this caused issues with people Swagger, Shearsby, Cody Rhodes and others breaking that glass ceiling?
It's something I've always pondered.
Do you think Keith Lee would have fared better on the main roster if he was in front of actual fans?
What are some things better going on today in professional wrestling than in years past?

It probably did have a big impact, as you need people to beat. Those guys beating each other or other low level stars doesn't get them anywhere. I know it's a cliche, but you need to pass the torch sometimes and Sheamus knocking Cena through a table isn't doing that.
If WWE wasn't going to push him or give him a chance with something other than Bearcat, it wouldn't have mattered if he had been in a sold out Silverdome.
More promotions and wrestling readily available. Streaming has been amazing for fans.
Better athletes. The things these people are doing is mind blowing and you can see it everywhere.
The industry is a lot cleaner from drugs and major issues. There's a reason so many wrestlers from back in the day are gone and it's great to see that slowing WAY down.
I saw this asked on a YouTube poll and struggled with it myself.
Best ever No Way Out match?
Is KB going to WrestleMania this year?
IYO SKY, Shotzi, Bayley, Gigi Dolan, Alba Fyre, Asuka, Kayla Braxton.
