By just focusing on the PPV's that seem to have a clear gimmick or trend to them, if you could remove one of these from the calender year, which one would you choose?

Hell in a Cell. Before this was the big blowoff to a feud. It was the ultimate way to settle a feud. Now, it's like "well, it's October, let's just have these guy fight in a cell".

Hell In the Cell is clearly the winner of this, but I also think Survivor Series is stale, MITB should be a Mania match, and Extreme Rules goes along with HIAC. The toned down violence doesnt translate to physically destructive gimmick matches.

I loved the MITB as a wrestlemania opener....too much briefcases means too much hotshotted titles.

Hell in a Cell
I usually enjoy the matches but, HiaC really should be a rare occurance, feud-ending type match. Not a gimmick that happens just to fit in with the PPV name. Plus doesn't it happen like 2 weeks after the PPV prior to it?

Money in the Bank. Simply because the MiTB match is not going to be the Main Event, so why is there a PPV based around it?
I was thinking the MiTB ladder match should be made as part of either Extreme Rules or TLC.

God, I still love watching the Wrestlemania 24 MitB match. Makes me disappointed to see how far it's fallen. Also, Hell in a Cell sucks now.

Agreeing here with HiaC and MitB. Make Hell in a Cell the blow-off again, stick Money in the Bank back before WrestleMania, and use the open spots to leave Rumble to 'Mania open to build feuds and stories without pushing for another 2 PPVs.

HIAC.
Always feels rushed and that match used to mean something.

HIAC.
it's by far the least enjoyable out of the choices.

Hell in a Cell. The recent PPV orders only give more reason as to why it should be rid of, and only as a proper feud ending, once in a blue moon, match.
Money in the Bank however, despite how good the last PPV was, is basically too much. Hell, I think they should get rid of the match proper, as the aftermath is basically, the holder cashes it in on weakened title holder after grueling match (after much foreshadowing), fight for about 30 seconds-2 minutes, hit the finisher, 1-2-3, new champ. There's no threat to it, as you know what you're going to get out of it. If anything, they should do what RVD did and cash it in for a true one on one match, but if they're going to continue with the usual run in and cash to win, then I give up on it.

Can they just say that when a Hell in a Cell match is gonna be on that parents should be wary of the possibility of blood and violence? And then we can get a double juice out of it or something?

Over The Limit, it's embarrasing watching "YOU GONNA QUIT CENA?" and Cena going "NOOOO NOOO" for over 30 minutes, it's like smark torture porn with a Little Jimmy pleasing ending, what's the point? Let's make a new Spongebob episode, in the episode it's Spongebob being whipped with a cane and getting asked if he wants to quit by Squidward, but it's all good though cause Squidward eventually gets tired of whipping the invincible Spongebob so Spongebob starts tickling Squidward with a feather, Squidward quits in the last 20 seconds of the episode.
At least HIAC does what it says on the tin and some of the matches are good, I even prefered Fatal 4 Way over OTL.
