No.. i disagree.. the rock thrived in his 6 yrs of wwe career.. before becoming hollywood star n making sporadic appearences..The Rock was the star of attitude era.. dont forget he alone hold the wwe title i think 7 times in that time span.. whereas rest trailing behind him.
First Undisputed WWF Champion. He also probably had more memorable promos than Kurt Angle. If we're being honest the Olympic gold medalist is more associated with the Ruthless Aggression Era than Y2J.
Pretty much the year 1997 was the Attitude Era so I'm surprised that The Undertaker and Bret Hart wasn't mentioned. Considering how they were champions in 1997.
I think that everything that happened in 1997 from September to December(D-Generation X's formation happened in September of that year & Bret Hart was in his historic 5th WWF title reign) is not part of the "Attitude Era."

1:39 speak for yourself but when I think of the superstars of attitude era in particular the women Ivory is definitely the first person I think of. My goodness ivory let's just say helped me discover myself
trish stratus as the women's champion heard one of the greatest women's title reigns of the🤠 attitude era of all time in history and she's still the goat 👆😼
They would have but Vince PervMahon fired so many good ones. And even today he ruins many shows. And then there is TripleCrap. He has potential but senile McPerv ruins him also.
Why is Chris jericho sooooooooooooo fucking overrated? His championship run in the attitude era was a complete debarcle and failure. But I guess just because Chris Jericho, so he's better than Angle. Its fucking wild. I swear most people who make these lists weren't watching back then. Angle defeated 6 men in Hell in a cell, beat the Rock, beat HHH, beat others as well. All while doing the best heel work in the attitude era outside HHH. It is boarderline insane to claim Jericho and fucking Chyna were better champions. And i don't even think he put Taker on the list who was also way better.
For the last time the attitude era started in 1998 the new generation ended at the survivor series 1997 then from December to March was a transitional period at WM14 the attitude era officially started
For the last time....no it didn't. It started the day after survivor series and ended May 02. You can imagine and make up your own opinion but that doesn't make it fact.

You guys should start doin top ten wrestling matches for wrestlers to get more content and if you want even more you should do ten worst matches from wrestlers thank me later
I’m ok with the list. Yes, you could argue between the Big Show and Taker. The undertaker is the greatest Big Man to ever perform in wwe, but his 1 month title run with the belt was painfully forgettable (is Brock Lesner even considered a “Big Man?). You can nitpick with the order, outside of the top 5 (Chyna should be 6th)(Chris Jericho over Kurt angle?) 🤔 10-Big Show or Undertaker or Mr McMahon 9-Ivory 8-Chris Jericho 7-Kurt Angle * if Brock Lesner counts, then he should go here. 6-Chyna 5-Mankind 4-Shawn Michaels 3-HHH 2-The Rock 1-Stone Cold
Hate to shit on the entire list, but stretching this thing out past what’s generally accepted as the end of the Attitude Era in WM17, plus the inclusion of women during a time when WWF barely had a recognizable division (while still somehow managing to overlook Sable and Lita, two of the most over Women’s Champs of that era) really hurts the list. You’re talking an era where Russo intentionally devalued championships, so I see why this is a hard list outside of the top 3. Still, hard to have a convo about the Attitude Era without talking Taker or Kane, and since we’re being liberal with the timeline, you could make a strong case for Bret Hart in 97 over Jericho or Show (imo the two worst booked Champions in history up until that point), or even Shawn, who barely wrestled during his 3rd title reign.
Thank you. Why is Chris jericho sooooooooooooo fucking overrated? His championship run in the attitude era was a complete debarcle and failure.

A lot of time to think about this and I think this is as unbiased as I could be I consider the fall of 97 to mania 18 as the era so 1. Stone Cold (6x held) 2. The Rock (6x held) 3. Triple H (4x held) 4. Kurt Angle (2x held) 5. HBK (1x held) 6. Bret Hart (1x held) 7. Undertaker (1x held) 8. Mankind (3x held) 9. Chyna (1x held) 10. Chris Jericho (1x held)
Thank you bro. Why is Chris jericho sooooooooooooo fucking overrated? I like Jericho, but his championship run in the attitude era was a complete debarcle and failure. But I guess just because Chris Jericho is over now because of his amazing LIST or whatever, that no matter what era he's better than Angle. The fact is while Angle and cats like Undertaker and Mankind were full time Jericho was always a midcarder. Its fucking wild. I swear most people who make these lists weren't watching back then. Angle defeated 6 men in Hell in a cell, beat the Rock, beat HHH, beat others as well. All while doing the best heel work in the attitude era outside HHH. It is boarderline insane to claim Jericho and fucking Chyna were better champions. And i don't even think he put Taker on the list who was also way better.
I'm sensing a bias in this list, because if you mention the attitude era, how can you miss the best run of Undertaker's championship run. He was a great heel champion when he had the belt the first time. Also, Big Show being on any 10 "best" list is pure hype and cap. It doesn't add up.
From wm 14-17. Hbk Stone cold Kane Rock Foley Taker Hhh Vince Big show Kurt Those are the only guys that held the world title. So I guess there's enough for the top 10 list. Lol
5:00 It was the World Heavyweight Championship!!! The name was changed after Survivor Series 2001! P. S. I know you know this.. WWE just annoys me with the World Heavyweight title lineage 😄
Nothing after X7 counts as Attitude era, so Jericho shouldn't be on the list. Taker's gotta be top 10 and Kane's surely more memorable than Big Show. Plus, no mention of tag champs? E&C, Dudleys & Hardys have gotta get honorable mentions

Oh god enough with this false history.. Chris Jericho didn't win the wwf and wcw title on the same night! It was the wwf title and the World Championship.. the title was given the name change the night after survivor series.. but for some wwe have decided to try and say otherwise and now you guys have followed! Why?
10 Best? You literally named them all. When I seen this title I was trying to think of ten names that held it during that time and couldn’t. When you started listing women it made a bit more sense, but should have kept big show off and listed another female. He wasn’t a best champ of any era, definitely not Attitude lol.
Bret Hart wasn't in WWF in the attitude era. He had just jumped ship and signed with WCW after survivor series and the now Infamous Montreal screw job in November 1997.
In my opinion, I thought Stone Cold was the best world champion during the Attitude Era with The Rock trailing behind him.
Definitely
Yeah, but it's Sports Entertainment
No.. i disagree.. the rock thrived in his 6 yrs of wwe career.. before becoming hollywood star n making sporadic appearences..The Rock was the star of attitude era.. dont forget he alone hold the wwe title i think 7 times in that time span.. whereas rest trailing behind him.
Yes stone-cold beat everybody especially his wife Deborah
Do another one like this for the ruthless agression era
You know Lesnar will be #1 or Cena
Edge for me
No Undertaker?? He had a good title run in 97, which was far better than Show run. Then a second run in 99. And Jericho ahead of Kurt??
Good points
First Undisputed WWF Champion. He also probably had more memorable promos than Kurt Angle. If we're being honest the Olympic gold medalist is more associated with the Ruthless Aggression Era than Y2J.

@@peytonlong5573 I was referring to all the Stephanie McMahon jokes
@@RomaroBrandon that still has nothing to do with “best world champions” lol
Of course Stone Cold is the no 1 in this list of being the best WWF Champion in Attitude Era
Thank you for including Ivory. I knew when I heard whatever music she was using at the times, that we would get a great match!!
Honorable mention: Undertaker

Ivory was definitely underrated as a performer and was sexy as hell. Just behind Trish for me personally.
Can you do worst champions of the ruthless aggression era
JBL, Khali def gotta be on there

No she isn't. I love Trish but she can't wrestle as well as half of today's women.
The Rock will always be my favorite
Great list❤
All this made me sad thinking of Chyna isn't with us anymore.
Chyna also entered the KOTR qualifying matches

In Jericho's defence, his Win/Loss Record as Undisputed Champion is pretty solid. His only clean loss on TV was at WrestleMania XVIII.
I've said this before, but...

Austin's skull version of the title was the best looking title they ever had imo.
Fun fact. The smoking skull belt was used to create the women’s title belt.
How is it not an easy task there weren't that many top champions in the Attitude Era many repeats
They need to have all 24 hours or less reigns ranked worst to best (excluding of course the hardcore and 24/7 titles)
alright let me help you
1. rock or austin

3, kurt angle
4. Mankind
