I want to know what your favorite year was in WWE from 2000-2010!
MODS- Not sure if this was supposed to go into Old School or into WWE section. Please move if needed.
For me it's a no brainer.
2002
We witnessed some of the most memorable moments that year, and it's the year that would change WWE into what it is now. I'm going to list some things first.
-Triple H returns from a career threatening injury and wins the Rumble.
-The NWO made their way into the WWE.
-One of the most iconic matches ever happened: Rock vs. Hogan WM 18.
-John Cena, Randy Orton, Batista, and Brock Lesnar made their debuts with the company.
-The first ever WWE draft took place, changing the landscape of the WWE.
-Shawn Michaels returns after 4 years and is better than ever.
-Hulk Hogan, The Rock, and Shawn Michaels all won their final World/WWE titles.
-Eric Bischoff, the man who almost killed the WWE, is welcomed to RAW as the new general manager.
-The World Heavyweight Championship is introduced to the WWE.
-The first ever Elimination Chamber match happened at Survivor Series featuring- Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Booker T, Kane, Chris Jericho, and RVD.
To me, this was the period between the old and the new. The attitude era was at it's very end, and the new, ruthless aggression era was just starting. We said goodbye to some of the old faces of the company (Austin/Rock) and hello to the new faces (Angle/Lesnar/Triple H). Nothing will ever beat the year of 2002 IMO.
