The WWE has changed a lot over the past 20+ years. It seems to be the most obvious of things that people always loved in wrestling, are long gone. Which one do you miss the most?

I voted a legit tag team division, but honestly I miss competition of companies and having the option of watching the WWF, AWA & NWA/WCW. I remember as a kid having fun watching the AWA, NWA/WCW & WWF at certain times during the week and it really gave you variety. Now with my vote for a legit tag team division is based on tag team wrestling is the real meat&potatoes that drew me into wrestling, but now it's not even a factor for me like it once was...

Like a couple others have mentioned, the variety of feds. I remember as a kid one of the local channels would have a different fed on every night of the week M-F. Then Saturday mornings was the highlight of the week with wrestling on 3 hours straight (1 hour NWA then 2 hours WWF).
You know what I miss that no one has mentioned yet? STORYLINE CONTINUITY. I hate it when they start building a good (or heck, even a bad) story and then they can it without any logical explanation. It's insulting to the audience.
I also miss common sense booking.

I miss all three but went with tag teams. The tag team scene used to be hot and was a great grooming tool for the next breakout singles stars (Bret, Shawn). Managers also made things more interesting. Some stars just don't have the gift for gab but had everything else. I wish there was a new generation of Bobby Heenan and Jim Cornette types to liven things up. I also think today's announcers pretty much suck.

I definitely chose Tag Teams from what was listed.
I agree with others that competition and storylines are also things that have lacked for quite some time.
One other thing that I miss though is the feeling that anything could happen or that you just didn't know what could happen next. Every once in a while there are times where you get this feeling again but I remember waiting weeks to find out who had attacked someone or who was joining up with someone's team. I would go to school on Tuesday and think about what happened the night before and just waiting all week to see what would happen next.
It also feels like big matches don't happen on non-ppv shows anymore.
