Survivor Series is in the bag, so which main roster PLE was your favorite show of the year?
WWE has been mostly hitting it out of the park this year with their shows.
So as we look back at the 2023 calendar year, which show was your favorite? There were ALOT of memorable moments this year from these shows.

Jesus man they’ve been killing it. Rumble was awesome. EC had the Sami Roman match. Backlash was insane and SS was, well, SS.
If I could vote wm as one package I would. Night 1 was the best wm in eons and I loved Cody Versus Roman.

Night 1 was the best wm in eons and I loved Cody Versus Roman. Sami at the Chamber. KO/Sami vs. Usos. Cody vs. Roman Bunny vs. Priest Cody vs. Brock at Summerslam Just a few bangers on a mountain of bangers WWE produced this year.

It remains Backlash.
Simply because that was so special in alot ways that while people expected a hot crowd...no one expected THAT level and it took a great show to something special and no other crowd this year has matched it IMO.

Backlash had the best PPV atmosphere in years but I think Mania night 1 was an overall better show. That second half of the show with Rey/Dom, Rhea/Charlotte and Usos/Sami/KO was great. And biggest surprise match of the year might be that tag showcase match. I remember thinking why is this even on the card but it ended up being a lot of fun.
Summerslam is the only PPV I watched this year and was disappointed with. Loved Cody v Brock but Gunther/Drew and Roman/Jey fell below my high expectations.

Iyo was made a star that night. That crowd definitely helped carrying her momentum to the cash in at Summerslam. I hope they bring back another Puerto Rico show again next year. Iyo is their princess over there.

Watching it live in Detroit, the live crowd felt the same. The magic wasn't there for this match, unlike Sheamus vs. Gunther. Lots of people took a bathroom break for this one. Roman and Jey kicked into 2nd gear but only too late and too short. The crowd was getting tired as the show as approaching 12 AM there.

What was the one in Puerto Rico? That was Backlash right? That was easily the best, most fun, PLE of the year.

Of course, the only PLE I missed is considered the best of the year, lol. It's between RR, WM Night 1 and WarGames for me.
Man... I'm gonna go WM1 just over WarGames.

Backlash was the best with Payback and Fastlane being the weakest ones.

Backlash. If they had ended on the Sávio/Carlito LWO pop it would have been perfect.

Even in a generally strong year, Mania Night 1 was a standout.
