I always wondered how that ppv would work considering 3 days out of the week, there’s wwe tv. Every couple of years you’d run the chance of the show being on a Monday, Tuesday, or Friday I guess do a Day 365/New Years Eve show?

Bring back Starrcade in December, and don't just make it a house show. I know people have a lot of time for WCW nostalgia, but if I remember correctly, it wasn’t just their December show, it was basically their WrestleMania, right? I highly doubt they’d book it as such, so I don’t think it’d be worth the later headaches.

WWE certainly didn't book it as such when they revived it as a Smackdown PPV in 2017, it had AJ Styles vs Jinder Mahal in a Steel Cage as the main event.

I'm surprised since it was a Nick Khan idea and he's Co-CEO. Perhaps Hunter is taking on more control of all wrestling related decisions.

I wonder if subscriber numbers will drop in places that still have WWE network due to months with no big event to justify it.
Wouldn't think they'd want to risk people breaking the habit, especially with the cost of everything else rising.
A break is good from other perspectives though.

Apparently (and this is from news aggregators quoting some kind of Bryan Alvarez Patreon thing, so I can’t guarantee it’s a real story), the intent is to eventually move away from the b-tier gimmick shows like Hell In A Cell and TLC (for example) and try and do some more international shows.

Nothing between Survivor Series and Royal Rumble is weird and dumb, but I'm a-okay with ditching Day One, always thought it was a dumb idea. Maybe should just promote some random house show to a PPV to fill the gap, wouldn't b seee the first time. Hell air the Post Christmas MSG show... they usually go pretty big for that.

It was a non televised House show. they did it again but they streamed like 2 or 3 matches for them.

It’s on a Monday this year unfortunately (so will only have SD stars due to Raw the same night).

They should bring back No Holds Barred.
Aaliyah vs. Omos in a steel cage, then just play the same movie.

It's not too late to bring back TLC. I felt it was sudden last year to cancel that show.

One month only return of the WWE Fanatic Series with the Best of Wrestlemania 38?

Was a really dumb idea in the first place imo.
And given the moment anyone remembers for it is Big E getting bitched out of the world title, I'll be happy to forget all about this show.

Saturday Night's Main Event would be fun.
