    Will there be another era?

    The mentions annoy me but it's not too high on my list. They can keep twitter and focus on the midcard and team divisions for now.

    Will there be another era?

    Is it even possible to kayfabe alive? After all with all the social media sites we can see every move a wrestler takes, many of them breaking characters.

    Will there be another era?

    Higher profits then ever even with the lower buyrates and lower ratings. PG has been a success if we're talking numbers. http://newsodrome.com/wrestling_news/2010-wwe-s-second-most-profitable-year-ever-23869440

    Will there be another era?

    Of course there will be. I sound like a broken record here but wrestling runs in cycles and always has. In the late 90's the anti authority grunge mentality was popular culture. That's why we had lower production values and rebellious characters. Now the majority wants high professional...
