It's always hard for me to remember WWE by years, especially in this decade. And since I always look at it more seasonal as from Wrestlemania to Wrestlemania.

 

I'd say maybe the one with the brand split. 2016? That freshened it up all around. Even though at the beginning of 2017, Wyatt won the WWE title at EC which was also good, but had that bs with Goldberg lol.

 

@LEGION. I'd swap Gargano with Bryan. And probably put him over CM Punk too. I mean, 2011-2013 CM Punk did a lot with what he was given and it did shook up a lot of things. But he retired in 2014. Bryan did unimaginable things during the whole decade, and still pushes the envelope.

I think they do honestly and that his legacy is certafied with what he has done in those few years.

 

However, Bryan as an all around performer also had a huge impact in WWE in this decade. On screen and behind it. To be fair, CM Punk constantly was given shit cards to play with though.

Don't even think people realize how legitimately important Punk was to the WWE, who knows if the company is in the state that its in right now if he doesn't drop that pipebomb on RAW. Even him coming back to just shit talk the product on TV could be super important.

That plan speech u can say if it had any effect or not I think people overstated how much an impact that had

Nope. That speech, and Punk's subsequent comments, all really opened a lot of eyes that WWE wasn't really that magic wonderland that every talent should strive for. I think that one promo turned a lot of casual viewers into ones that were more willing to check out some other kinds of wrestling outside of WWE. It really was an important promo for the world of pro wrestling.
