10 Forgotten Returns of WWE Attitude Era Stars

[@Kitsune-Chaos]

I'm a simple man. I see D'Lo Brown, I click Like.

[@purplemask4204]

I mean you’re probably in the minority but you do you mate

[@Kitsune-Chaos]

So very sorry to see that such a basic comment bothered you both so very much.

[@JBryc3]

Ok

[@TheMuldoonFella]

You said Dammit D-Lo in a Dublin accent didn't you?

[@Snaffdude]

With you all the way!

[@De_La_Soto]

As a kid during the attitude era, I was completely naive to the tone of Al Snow's theme song lol "WHAT DOES EVERYBODY WANT?!?"

[@funkstabrisbane]

Headdddddddddddddd

[@thegreatone3883]

Head! What everybody needs head

[@Joneth_Piptne]

WHAT DOES EVERYBODY LOVE???? HEAD!!!!!

[@yehudajacob270]

[@briansickboy]

Lol me too. My cousin had a styrofoam head like HEAD and she gave it to me and I was telling my dad she gave me head and both her and I had no clue what it was referencing. My dad was like "what?! Don't say that" and I had no idea why until a few years later

[@aayushrai8881]

I think most of these Attitude Era mid-carders did more for wrestling than almost all of the current active roster. Too Cool, Goldust, D'Lo, Al Snow, Gangrel and Val Venis are all hall of famers in my book

[@Lex-up6mg]

D Lo Brown is one of the most underrated dudes ever. He shoulda really been someone. Great finisher.

[@MrPAULONEAL]

A real neck breaker...

[@bigred22685]

I wouldn't call him underated. He held several belts and spent several more years on the payroll after paralyzing another talent. That shows a fair amount of respect on WWE's part and perseverance on his part. A horrible botch accident like that can weigh on a guy for sure.

[@DerwinDaDestroyer]

I liked the running powerbomb

[@Waish06]

Lex shush

[@TheNamesRJ]

Yea he held belts, many held belts but who tf talks about d-lo browns athletics in todays time?! That’s what he means underrated people, ffs 🤦‍♂️.

[@konnorkinser9468]

I’ve met al snow many times. The guy is genuinely one of nicest people around. I actually sat next to him at the movies whe the longest yard came out

[@tomhutchison4909]

Joseph Litsey yeah dummy my cousin waited on al snow at Denny’s in OHIO ..know your history before talking little bitch

[@xAudioBeatzz]

That’s pretty cool. Someone sounds jelly about you meeting him ^

[@-EJ-]

When I was younger, I legitimately thought D’lo had no neck due to how much it bobbled during his entrence.

[@fuificare]

We called him rubber neck.

[@floridaborn8550]

D'lo brought me here.

[@06nemox]

One of the most underrated wrestlers in attitude era, easily.

[@YesThatCraig]

If D'lo Brown turned up now I would pop louder than for anyone on the current roster!

[@ds5955]

At least someone would. I remember when he returned in 2008, the crowd was completely dead.

[@xAudioBeatzz]

ds5955 yea because everyone nowadays is on there phone and distracted. Stone cold is the goat and he doesn’t even get huge pops on his returns anymore like he once did. The audience nowadays sucks and nobody mentions it. You can’t pay attention when your phone is glued to your face. Smh at this generation, y’all couldn’t live without social media or texting

[@ds5955]

@@xAudioBeatzz I mean I agree with you about today but I wasnt talking about today. I said they were dead when he returned in 08. 2008 was well before people were glued to their phones and had social media. Just saying I popped for D'lo when he returned back then, even though the rest of the audience on tv didn't seem to care. I guess the audience had already changed even by then.

[@xAudioBeatzz]

ds5955 I agree. Granted the talent has slowly gone from over the top great to absolutely terrible but so has the audience’s attention

[@xAudioBeatzz]

ds5955 and yea d’lo was amazing back in the day. I’ve always liked dlo. But I wasn’t able to see his return in 08. as wwe was declining, so was my interest. The roster of the attitude era was STACKED. After the attitude era it slipped off because Vince bought wcw and they had no competition to compete with anymore

[@aaronhurst4379]

I remember seeing D'Lo Brown vs Santino Marella on Heat and loving that D'Lo was back. Think they brought back Goldust and Val Venis around that time in a similar fashion too.

D’lo Brown deserved so much more looking back, yeah ok he wasn’t exactly a jobber and cemented himself firmly in the mid card but the dude could have been so much more. Such a talented and charismatic individual Also Gangrel never held a single championship? He could have been IC or Tag Team at least

Craig Flanagan and people like you need to pipe down.. The Attitude Era was the height of pro wrestling in the 90s, and while it had some questionable moments it was still better than the crap we have on the main brand today

Test deserved a push. He had the physique and the height plus extraordinary skill. I don’t know why he was left hanging on the lower mid card his entire career.

[@davidparkes7741]

The fallout from the faked wedding to Steph probably. Once Trips got in to the fam & got his spot bts he could do what he wanted, so why not use your new shovel powers on your ex "romantic rival." That & lbr.... Test was not that size naturally, the juicing caught up with him.

RIP Brian Lawler, Andrew Martin (Test) & anyone else who might've died from this list.

[@AndrewMartinez1776Redux]

So many wrestlers are dying way to early because of drug addiction (painkillers) and alcohol. At least the great ones we loved from the attitude era and ruthless aggression era's. I haven't watched 1 full episode of wrestling since 2005. It just got boring & predictable. Plus social media ruined surprise returns.

D'Lo cou'dn't get more over because The Rock existed, embodying the traits he had and being better at all of them.

[@Jeffish412]

Never really had this thought but you’re probably exactly right honestly.. insane poor D’Lo

[@xAudioBeatzz]

The rock only became big because of stone colds surgery. Once Austin had to leave , the rock pretty much took over Austin’s story line. Stealing a lot of what Austin had already showed us. The rock is obviously an all time great but I noticed his transformation from rocky maivia to the rock was strictly stealing what Austin had already done

[@jeromebreezedale4592]

Wrong it had nothing to do with rock and everything with management
