But this wasn’t always the case. Wrestlers had a larger-than-life celebrity aura around them which made them stand apart from the general public.

1) The Hogan Era (1983-93)

This is the era where professional wrestling started to find its place as a part of mainstream TV. The main stars who highlighted this era were Andre The Giant, Randy Macho-Man Savage, Rowdy Roddy Piper, The Iron Shiek, but one who stood out was Hulk Hogan. Hogan enthralled the audience with his amazing performances and clean wins. The highlight of his golden run was when Hogan picked up and body-slammed Andre The Giant in Wrestle Mania 3. His impact was such that an entire era was named after him.

2) The Attitude Era (1997-2001)

This era can be considered as one of the most globally appealing WWE era. Stars like Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, Undertaker, HBK and Mick Foley paved their way into WWE. This era witnessed WWE stars successfully transition from the wrestling world to show business. The Rock successfully became the biggest movie star to come out of the WWE.

3) Aggression Era (2002-07)

The aggression era brought in-your-face intense wrestling which did not leave viewers with a moment to breathe. The WWE does not officially recognize this era because of the controversy it brought. The dominant superstars from the Aggression Era have either departed from the brand or went on to bigger projects like movies and TV shows. Stars like Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero lost their lives in this era.

4) PG Era (2007-11)

The least favourite era in WWE is the PG era. The end product of WWE was watered down in this era. Expletives, sauciness, scandals, gore and excessive violence were cut out. Randy Orton, Batista, Edge and Jeff Hardy were the face of this era. Hulk Hogan was replaced by John Cena as the face of the company.

5) Reality Era (2011-present)

We find ourselves now in the midst of the reality era. This era has seen an important shift in the dynamics of WWE. Matches have now become more intense, faster and more realistic. Daniel Bryan, Dolph Ziggler, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns are the dominant stars of this era. This era focusses on MMA-style choreographed fighting sequences.
