Post#1 » by dylanking » Thu Jan 5, 2012 10:24 am

these are things that must happen for me
ziggler champ
daniel bryan defend WHC at wm
jericho win royal rumble and go on to face punk at mania
attitude era/raw 99-2002 set same for smackdown
have rock,hhh,punk have jericho like biographies
have jericho/rock at summerslam
bring up FCW talent
make tag division relevant
get samoa joe
make raw/smackdown matches longer and better/meaningful
push mid card not just main event
bring back ice cream bars lol

i know likely none of this will happen but always fun to dream 8-)

I agree that I'd like to see most happen. Most are realistic enough where they could be done down the line.

Don't understand the attitude era part though. You mean the TV-MA hardcore stuff? As much as I'd like to see Kelly Kelly have a miss kitty armageddon like moment, bringing all that stuff back would just be crap.

Not saying I like this PG corny crap either. They need to find a middle ground.

I've made my point clear that I'm pro wwe right now, loving a lot of the stuff that's going on. But there are still some things I'd change, the most being PPV's.

I was ordering PPV's all the time as a kid when I had no money. I'd be mowing lawns, washing cars, etc... just to earn the 30 or so dollars it was back then to get to order the PPV. Now as a twenty something, I have a part time job where I could pick up an extra shift and just buy the PPV on my big HD screen and I don't even think about buying ones that aren't in the top 4.

What the hell happened to the PPV? It's all gimmick now. I admittedly said I love the MITB, and I do like the Elimination Chamber, but they should stop right there.

I'd fix this by
A. Cutting down the number. Doesn't have to be extreme, once a month is fine.
B. Getting rid of the gimmick PPVs.

scratch extreme rules completely
Put hell in a cell into the Over the limit PPV between two guys who hate each other for the title.
I'd keep MITB, I hear they're thinking of scrapping it to put it back at WM.
Scrap TLC and put a TLC match into Wrestlemania.
Integrate Table and Ladder matches into various PPVs.
Scrap Bragging rights. They're bringing it back I see, scrap it again. Put WCW War Games in that place.

Here would be my take on the perfect PPV year

Jan - Royal Rumble
Feb - Elimination Chamber
Mar - Nothing
April - Wrestlemania
May - Over the Limit - I may change the name, always found that corny, but oh well.
June - War Games - this takes the place of bragging rights and is much better
July - Money in the bank
August - Summerslam
Sept - Night of Champions - This can stay, it's a good gimmick. All titles must be defended.
Oct - Halloween Havoc - I guess you can see my WCW bias by now :)
Nov - Survivor Series - Lets get back to traditional SS here though.
Dec - Vengeance - debated cutting this, but something needs to be placed between SS and the rumble

Are you saying that there should be no PPV in March? Cuz they can't/wouldn't do that.

Besides that I agree with everything else except for MITB. I love watching MITB matches, but I think they should save it for Mania. Especially since there are so many wrestlers on the roster and most of them are already get shafted off Mania cards for the Floyd Mayweathers...The Snookies and so on and so forth.

They can and are.

I mean a lot of that has to do with them doing 2 ppvs in april (with Mania being on the 1st) but still, there is no PPV in march.

Didn't know that, makes sense since Mania is the first of April and Elimination Chamber is at the end of February.
