WWF? July 1999. End of Austin/McMahon. End of Corporate Ministry. Within a three month span the main event changed completely. The company went public. Russo/Ferrara left. Smackdown became weekly and diluted the product. Stephanie became a member of creative. Austin/Taker/Foley were gone and replaced by Gaytch/Jericho/Angle.
Monday Night Wars as a whole? July 1998. Both companies were neck-and-neck. The wars were at the peak total viewership. WWF had Austin/McMahon, Foley vs Taker/Kane, DX at their peak. WCW had NWO/Wolfpac, Rodman/Malone, and Goldberg vs Hogan in the Georgia Dome.
