Keeping it simple here. Name at least one good one and one bad one, but beyond that, you can name multiple.
Worst: Great Balls of Fire was a terrible show name. It had no relevance to any of the characters, there were no fire-themed matches, and it isn't exactly like the song had anything to do with anything.
Stomping Grounds is also terrible. If it was held in Connecticut or at Madison Square Garden, the title would make any sense, but no, Tacoma, Washington isn't WWE's stomping grounds, so what the hell is the title even in reference to?
Best: Not an actual PPV by a real company, but the webseries Hogan vs Flair had a show titled "The Bride of Frankensteiner", and that's A. a badass name, and B. pretty sure Steiner was on the card, so it at least had something to do with anything. As an aside, someone steal this for their finisher name.
Wrestle Kingdom. Simple, basic, but so is a grilled cheese sandwich, and that's also quite good.

PWG (and sometimes Chikara) had the market cornered on great show names.
See: 2011's Steen Wolf and 2006's From Parts Well Known. They also a few [Kurt] RusselManias.
