We have one about the worst years for ppv, how about the best years for ppvs? The obvious pick is 2001 of course (only duds were backlash and judgement day, but they were more mediocre than outright bad), any other good years? (i seem to remember 2008 getting lots of love).

I'll go with 2001 as well. Great Rumble, great No Way Out, probably the best WrestleMania ever, one of my favorite SummerSlams ever and a decent Survivor Series.

2000 was amazing on PPV, save oddly enough, Wrestlemania.

If you'd asked me this question in August, I would have said this year; Rumble, Chamber, Wrestlemania, Extreme Rules, Payback, Money in the Bank, & Summerslam were all ranging from good-to-great. The year pretty much started a rather fast descent after Summerslam though & it's a really huge disappointment, because I was loving this year on PPV.

2000, 2001, 2003 and 2008 come to mind.

2000 followed very closely by 2001.

1997 has to be considered. Lame Wrestlemania and controversial Survivor Series, but almost everything else was excellent.
Also 1992, even though there were only four, but all four ranged from very good to top notch.

I think you could make a strong case for 2002. Say what you will about the storylines, but the roster was probably the absolute strongest it's ever been. Judgment Day and Armageddon were the weakest shows, but even they get nowhere near as dire as the worst of 2003 or 2004.

2000 (Mania being the exception) 2001 (ESPECIALLY the first three PPVs) 2002 (Vengeance onwards) 2008 (Survivor Series being the exception)

Given that the reason I criticised 1999 in the other thread was for wrestling quality despite the storylines being hot, I say 2001, because the storylines were often dogshit but the wrestling product was at its all-time high.

Off the top of my head without thinking too much about it: 1989, 1990, 1992, 2000, 2001, 2006, 2011, 2012.
