This thread is both to gauge interest and take suggestions for doing a watch along of a full year of wrestling programming from start to finish. The schedule would be every Saturday (the time can be worked out later but preferably starting between 1-6 EST), and we would decide which programs make the cut to watch once the year is decided.

So you guys throw out your suggestions for which year to watch and which companies you want to include. It would be preferable if the shows were on the WWE Network, but Impact Plus, Honor Club, NJPWWorld, etc. could all be an option too...those might be a hard sell though so good luck. Examples would be: 2004 WWE (Raw, Smackdown, PPVs), 1998 Monday Night Wars (Raw, Nitro, PPVs, potentially Thunder as well), 1996 (Raw, Nitro, PPVs, Hardcore TV, ECW Supershows). But anything that's manageable for us to watch is eligible, so feel free to suggest anything.

A poll with choices will be up sometime in the next few days.

I'd just say 2002. Possibly SmackDown's best year ever...and boy was Raw something. Would be a great choice.

I would have to start a lot of what I’ve watched over, well not a lot like 3 months haha, but it’s a fun year so I’ll surely be behind it.

Alright, I added a poll here. I just put every year from 96-2011 on there, I just don't think anything pre-Raw era would really work too well or get enough interest anyway though I would love to do a full year of Mid-South sometime since it would be much shorter than these years.

It's multiple choice so feel free to vote for all the ones you want to win. I imagine there will be a tie, so I'll most likely make a second poll to decide a winner in a couple of days. Probably won't make this Saturday for the first show but we'll see.

Ruthless Aggression Era started for me when the draft takes place. They drop the F and attitude slogan a few weeks later.

If you want the date when he makes the Ruthless Aggression speech, it's in June.

Thats the equivalent of not voting but I like your enthusiasm :lmao

I mean, you're right. But I man all the years honestly I could enjoy probably. Even if they are bad, I can have fun with the roasting.

Should at least eliminate your least favorite year.

I don’t know if I’d want to watch any PG era year.

Unless it’s 2012 or 2013, but it’s not listed.
