Stone Cold- The epitome of the Attitude Era. He was a counter-culture riot, and as "Raw" and real as it gets, whether he was wrestling, talking trash, or destroying property. He was very unpredictable, and probably has the most dramatic, memory filled career of anyone, as he made every moment of his career worth watching every week in a short amount of time. I consider him to be the greatest of all time.
The Rock- Perhaps the most commercialized within his character, and the most well spoken. He carried himself with grace and glory, and was the very embodiment of just what a young man's capabilities could have him amount to in his prime on such a big platform, with a simple tweak in his grind.
The Undertaker- His evolution during the Attitude Era helped make him the legend he is today. He really outdid himself in showing just how everlasting he really was, back then when wrestling called for more realism within gimmicks, which he amped up for his matches as well, while staying true to his roots, even when he put his Deadman gimmick aside to be more like his day to day self.
Mick Foley- He always had what it took to be apart of the Attitude Era, judging by his WCW and ECW days. He was far from a stranger to the Hardcore mentality when he came to WWE, and his legend didn't stop there either, because underneath his broken down exterior and masochistic behavior, he was a fun loving, charitable, twisted role model for kids with a heart of gold, and a real team player on his way out in 2000.
Triple H- He was fun to watch during his days in DX, but he really stepped up his "game" as a main eventer by the end of the 90s, by not playing any, and had the biggest heel run in almost the last twenty years, based on how much power he had from 1999-2001.
Chris Jericho- I always thought he was at his best during this time, when he wasn't a main eventer yet, but he sure carried himself like one, even better than he did when he finally reached the promised land. His debut was a classic, and his matches helped to freshen WWE up even more during the turn of the millennium.
Kurt Angle- His opposition to the Attitude Era's standards actually helped him in his matches and promos, which was hard for anyone else to get away with back then.
Kane- He's the Undertaker's brother, which was kind of an understatement for him back then. He had potential to be just as legendary, as he carried the same level of mystery and intimidation in his size, entrances, matches, and even promos, as they were rare and spoken through a voice box.
Chyna- The 9th Wonder of the World and the original "Baddest Woman on the Planet". She was ahead of her time, making history by wrestling the men every week, and accomplishing what they would as well. She really was one of the guys, even though she proved she had as much breasts as she had balls.
The Dudley Boyz- Perhaps the most barbaric, legendary tag team since the Road Warriors.

Depends on whether you include 1997. If so then tweener turned heel/ canadian hero Bret Hart was easily one of, if not the, most compelling characters WWE had.
Failing that: Steve Austin Pre-Ministry Undertaker Mankind Triple H The Rock Kane Mr McMahon (character wise) Kurt Angle Chris Jericho DX era Shawn Michaels (his babyface character from late 1995 through early 97 was gash.
