Honestly, I'm not sure if we'll ever seen another boom period. Wrestling's become such a bad word in the community, from all the edgy stuff to the whole "lolfakefighting" thing. But it's a fun point to argue nontheless.

I have no doubts that there'll be another boom period. I know it's been so many years since the previous one but that just makes me realize how sudden and out of nowhere it will seem when the times comes for wrestling to become hot and popular again. These things can't be planned and every time it happens, it's always like capturing lightning in a bottle anyway. The Attitude Era/Monday Night Wars was preceded by the worst era in WWF history and no one could have known that they we would be going from arguably the coldest period in wrestling history to the most popular one within just the span of a few years. Wrestling has always had a negative stigma to it when it isn't mainstream so that doesn't bother me.

I would say that buy rates and ratings might not mean everything in the PG era as the fact it is PG means more people are allowed to watch it by there parents etc ,surely if the ratings in the AE is the same or similar then that means actually it was liked better by wrestlings normal target audience which is men aged 15-25 as that many people where all watching before but from a much smaller age group.
