'97 for me.
'98 drew more so it's technically better, but all the behind the scenes shit, the shoot drama, the debacles and the best PPV matches of all time all happened in 1997 for what I feel is the most succinct year of WWF wrestling.
It had it all: the drizzling shits and the sizzling hits, the cream of the crop and the turd you wanna drop, the Montreal Screwjob and the slightly high school blowjobs.
'98 was still good and for me it wasn't until April '99 that the show started to fade and drop in quality, with July-December being virtually unwatchable for me, but the rise to the top? 1997.
And that's just the WWF perspective.
WCW was banging out brilliant shows too, until they fucked up Starrcade that year, lost the plot and never found it again.
'96 was a better year for them with the Outsiders and the NWO forming and all that, and all the WWF had was the start of Steve Austin's journey and Undertaker feuding with Mankind all the time.
