If it is in fact being removed, I'd figure it was in response to the Benoit tragedy, but, that was nearly 4 years ago, so, I guess the buy rate theory would be more feasible

Damn that sucks. To me Wrestlemania, Royal Rumble, Summerslam and Night Of Champions felt like the "Big four" to me.

If Vengeance replaces Night of Champions I'll laugh my ass off! Why? Night of Champions replaced Vengeance. So you mean to say that Vengence got vengence? I guess you could say Vengenace... ...successfully defended it's title. YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-

If they're replacing it they have very good reason to do so. Night of Champions 2009 drew 267,000 buys, whilst last year's dropped dramatically to just 165,000. Plus it seems pointless to have a gimmick PPV where every title is defended. Not only could they do that at anytime on any other PPV, but also they only have 6 titles in the company now so like last year with CM Punk vs. Big Show, they have to pad out the show with non-title matches (which is ridiculous considering the name) or have every match go a long time. I believe Kane vs. Undertaker and the six-way main event both went 20+ minutes. Don't forget that the tag team title match wasn't set up until the night of the show, which was a weird "marathon" match. Of course, that states the horrible issues with that aspect of the WWE.

I have a feeling that WWE PPV Survey winner was "WWE Champions". Write-in candidate Chamber of Conflict won in a landslide

WWE Champions does not even sound like a PPV name. Not even remotely.

If you ask me, bring back Backlash or ECW One Night Stand.
I have an idea, B(ring) B(ack) B(acklash) or BBB.
