1996 "New Generation" era, if I remember correctly. Yes, very cool, Undertaker and Paul Bearer split up for the first time is in my memory for example... followed by the "Attitude" era, Stone Cold, Ministry of Darkness etc... but I also appreciate and miss the early 1990s, when Wrestling was "pure-minded"... Would not make any ratings today I think. Time is over.
All WWF shows on German TV were commented in German, but the commentary was peerlessly bad. The style of US commentators could not be brought into German, but they tried, and it was only bad. And we had a time shift of about 4 weeks (Wrestlemania for example was broadcasted early May, but free-TV), what means we were very late, but it was not noticeable, there was no world wide networking. Unimaginable today.
