Summerslam '99 is when the good times came to an end

Summerslam 99 - KotR 00
>Triple Ego now a main eventer
>Austin and Taker were broken down and absent
>Rock and Foley were Cunter's own punching bags
>Gaytch unnecessarily going over at the Royal Rumble, WM16, and Judgment Day
>Boring HHH/McMahon promos previewing his future reign of terror during RA

KotR 00 - WM17
>Mostly good, only real complaint was Rikishi being revealed as Austin's attacker when it should've been someone like Jericho or Kane

WM17 - Survivor Series 01
>Austin's retarded heel turn
>Horribly botched invasion angle
>These two things caused millions of fans to stop watching
>Two very important people (Benoit and Gaytch) missed the entire thing
>Some great ppvs/matches even if the storylines were shit/didn't make sense
>Shit finally went back to normal by early 2002 but the damage had been done to ratings and ticket sales
