Any ppvs you'd like to return? Go ahead and take some currents ones. Two that come to mind I'd like to return are:
In Your House - Replace Hell in a Cell with this. It makes no sense to have Hell in a Cell as a ppv, it loses the impact of a cell match randomly announced in a feud. In Your House was amazing back in it's day. Just have 1 special themed ppv event centered around it and see it work well. They can even modernize it and if they want go with a destroyed house theme rather than the white house they used in the 90s. It would be a nice event that has more impact than most of these generic ppvs these days.
King of the Ring - Replace Money in the Bank with King of the Ring. Put Money in the Bank back at Wrestlemania and allow this to thrive. They can even spice it up a bit and put more focus on the King of the Ring winner than the past, it needs to be brought back. In it's day it was an amazing ppv so to see it wiped out is saddening. It needs to be revived.
What are your ideas?

Breaking Point. It had a cool name and an all submission match PPV is awesome.

Backlash, Unforgiven, No Mercy, Breaking Point, and Halloween Havoc are the main ones I'd like to see brought back. King of the Ring... I'll say provisionally. I'd be fine with it for a SummerSlam title shot and as a nice excuse to have a tournament, but my life would be much better if I never see the king gimmick done again. And without that the theme of the tournament is kind of pointless.

I agree with KOTR. Have the winner get a title shot at Summerslam.
MITB was alot better at Wrestlemania anyway. Awesome crowd reactions.

I want HIAC to disappear. Am I allowed to say that in this thread? It sucks. WWE cage matches suck in the PG era.
So let's replace it with the Scramble PPV. A PPV perfected suited for the PG era, with some fun moments and teases which is what main event matches are desperate for now.
Wouldn't you enjoy a couple main event HIACs replaced with Scramble matches?
Remember "Kendrick, current WWE champ?" I know that's not some huge deal, but it was kinda fun wasn't it? Lets have more of that. A little humor and some actual teases that make you wonder what's up.

I miss PPV's named after a wrestler's gimmick or finisher like Degeneration-X: In Your House, or Rock Bottom.
Plus the sets were awesome.

I miss when wrestlers had a gimmick strong enough that they could field a PPV name after them, heh. Could you see that today with Cena? or Orton? Hell even Bryan or Punk? Just not the same, but meh what can you do.

King of the Ring for sure and War Games. I agree with Hell in a Cell. That should be reserved for intense feuds and not just because it's that time of year. I wouldn't mind Cyber Sunday back. Rigged or not, it's the one PPV where they can get away with ignoring continuity or current feuds.

Rigged or not, it's the one PPV where they can get away with ignoring continuity or current feuds. I'm sort of torn on Cyber Sunday. I like the idea of the show, it had an awesome set, and things going off the rails could be fun, but the build-up to each one (and the Taboo Tuesdays) was excruciating with how many segments you'd get with them beating you over the head with which option you were supposed to vote for. As was how often whenever a vote didn't go the way they wanted they'd just do it the proper way on Raw anyway - like when Punk and Kofi were supposed to face Legacy, people voted for Cryme Tyme instead, then Punk and Kofi just got the tag titles the next night anyway.

King of the Ring and Halloween Havoc should be brought back.
Another neat idea would be to bring back WarGames. Make that the December Pay-Per-View.

King of the Ring.
I actually love the OP's idea of shelving the MitB PPV and just putting it back on Wrestlemania's undercard and making that slot the KotR.

I miss what I consider the trio.
No Way Out followed by Wrestlemania followed by Backlash.

I gotta say, and god I'm gonna get flamed for this but maybe if people think about it they won't. Wargames was not that good. We're talking about the elimination chamber except the first 20 minutes don't matter. It doesn't shit the bed but...worthy of being so awesome that we're clamoring for it to return? I think it'd be pretty forgettable today.

I think it'd be pretty forgettable today. I've actually never seen a WarGames match, so if they brought it back once, and it didn't do well, I'd be okay with it. It's like, "Well, at least they gave it a shot." Then again, Great American Bash bombed horribly after its return.

Halloween Havoc should definitely be the October PPV.
