The Attitude Era is considered by a lot to be the golden age of professional wrestling, when it was at its absolute peak. One of the benefits of professional wrestling is the celebrity benefits, like groupies.
In wrestling they called said groupies “ring rats.” That group essentially died after the attitude era, amongst other things, according to former WWE superstar Brodus Clay.
“I think the Attitude Era killed the so-called rats,” Clay said in a You Shoot shoot interview with Kayfabe Commentaries, . “We don’t have rats now, we have guys with iPads wanting to take our pictures and sign their toys. That’s our rats.
“We missed out, Ernie Ladd would be furious. It’s not our fault, we come out of the show and there’s a family of 4 that want to take a picture with The Funkasaurus. Then there’s Darryl with his action figures and his books and stuff he wants us to sign. We have more like hamsters I guess, we don’t really have rats. The Attitude Era had the crazy rock & roll girls and stuff. I heard rumors. Unfortunately I’m still waiting for that because if any of them want to flash, we’d be like bro, please don’t do that it’s not cool. We missed the boat.”
