Does anybody think that wrestling will see the highs they did in the 80's and late 90's?

Of course it will.
The wrestling business is and have always been cyclical. Wrestling was huge in the 1960s compared to the early 70s. It wasn't until the mid 80s that professional wrestling became popular again.
However with the popularity of Hulk Hogan dying down, attendance started to drop and morale in the business as a whole went spiraling down again. It wasn't until the Attitude Era in which pro wrestling became more popular than it had ever been before.
It's not secret that right now, wrestling it's at a low point. But if history has taught us anything when it comes to wrestling, is that eventually the business will pick up again.
There are still millions of fans who stay with wrestling continuously even if the product isn't the best. That's what separates the real fans from the rest of the world.

I love the WWF/WWE but I think the only way it will get as high as it did in the past is if they get some real competition.I hate TNA but I would love to see them keep up with wwe in the ratings so the wwe can put on better shows.No other companies are pushing vince to put on good shows and before TNA there was no other companies so why is he gonna waste his time with good shows when a "o.k" show will do.I think they will get back to the top in ratings someday but not soon maybe in the next several years.

Yes but not anytime soon. The WWE keeps trying to relive the past by reusing story lines. The keep trying to push Cena (don't worry I'm not going to bash him) as the next Austin or Rock. In the 90's they were looking for the next Hulk Hogan and failed, but stumbled upon Stone Cold and ran with it. They need to let the wrestlers naturally progress in their own characters in order to build new mainstream stars.

I think so. Pop culture goes through cycles about every 20-25 years so in the next 5-6 years wrestling should pop again. I think it would happen sooner if it became more family friendly again but that's just my opinion.
