Wrestlemania is always a pretty good event each year but since they added that 4th hour it seems to drag on a bit. I always look forward to January for the annual Royal Rumble. I think this is always the best event because it has that unique match seen only once a year : The Royal Rumble Match.
Survivor Series would be alot better if they went back to the old ways of the team elimination matches. They were always good. Especially the ones that involved Tag-Teams, if one partner got pinned his partner was eliminated as well. They do usually have one of these types of matches on the PPV but it is not the same.
Also the King Of The Ring would be alot better if they had the entire tournament at the event. The semi-finals and Finals is all we get now. And they are always quick, rushed matches. Brock beat RVD in like 8 minutes in the final, how stupid.
What do you guys think?

I would have to say Summerslam. Wrestlemania has almost become too big. Summerslam is the only PPV that comes close to the quality of Wrestlemania without all the unneccessary bells and whistles. Royal Rumble is also pretty good. I agree with you about KOTR. I liked how they used to be when they had the whole tournament as the show. Both Survivor Series and KTOR have changed in their formats. Rather than having just the tournament they cut it down and added other matches. Survivor Series is a big dissapointment. I loved seeing the whole card filled with awesome 8 man tag elimination matches and a grand finale of faces vs heels at the end. Slowly over the years they have transformed it into just another regular PPV full of singles matches and we hardly see any classic Survivor Series matches anymore. They have a lot of potential for it this year. They should make a bunch of real Survivor Series elimination matches between teams from Smackdown vs teams from RAW.

Exactly. The fueds would still be going on, they just wouldn't be in singles matches or titles on the line for one night. Think about it, what an 8 man survivor series match this would be:
Brock Lesnar
Kurt Angle
Eddie Guerrero
Chris Benoit
vs
Undertaker
Edge
Rey Mysterio
The Rock
Or for Raw hypothetically:
Kane
Bubba Dudley
RVD
Booker T
vs
HHH
Ric Flair
Chris Jericho
Kevin Nash
These matches could be like 25+ minutes long or longer and most of the big name talent are displayed in 2 matches. Then the mid-card level guys would have their own elimination matches. This is how Survivor Series should be!

I didn't think of that. That would be better. I was thinking RAW teams would face Smackdown teams. But that seems better since there are storylines to follow.

My favourite PPV would be.. Royal Rumble. I've always loved the Royal Rumble match. Survivor Series comes a close second though, but only if they go back to the old style. It was much better than what they seem to come out with now.

[glow=red,2,300]I like wrestlemania but my favorite would have 2 be The Royal Rumble. I had pleasure of going 2 it and I must say that it was exciting as hell. When you have a match for about 45 minutes and noone sits down thats excitement![/glow]

- It looks like the WWE is going to bring Survivor Series back to the original style, the 4 on 4 or 5 on 5 tag team matches. The last few Survivor Series’ have had less and less tag matches, going more to single matches. Word comes in now that the WWE is planning on changing that this year and going back to the traditional style of tag matches.
I guess the WWE wants to bring it back to the original setting seeing as how this years event will be in Madison Square Garden. Usually when the WWE holds PPV events in this arena they go back to traditional styles. Survivor Series was held at Madison Square Garden in 97 and was a huge success, so it's only fitting that they make a return.
Survivor Series will be held on November 17th.

I love the ROYAL RUMBLE! I think it's surprising, amazing and outstanding in one match! Wrestlemania and then Survivor Series.
