I hope I am not the only one who has ever thought up what they thought would be a kick ass name for a PPV. WWE has done well with the 12 they have, but they have changed some of them out over time. I like to think that there are some other names that would be fun to use. So here are some of my ideas:
RAGNAROK-the norse mythological name for the end of the world
GRINDHOUSE-pop culture name for movie theaters that showed all exploitation movies
TARTARUS-a mythological name for hell
NO MAN'S LAND-nickname for the killing fields during the first world war
SAMHEIN-wicca name for halloween night, best used for a halloween season ppv
but those are just some that I have thought up. I hope my fellow crappers can come up with some equally awesome sounding ppv names. Lets hear em!

I'm so tired of a lot of the permanent names. Backlash, Judgment Day and the like. I wish they would go back to the old In Your House way of things, with names that had some relation to the shows.
That being said, I'm not creative enough to do it myself. Someone take over!

Not a ppv name, but i would love to see them have a set that, rather than having it on fire, such as Armageddon, they had one that looked frozen or covered in ice.

Revolution -- none of that "New Year's" crap. That way you can have it any month.
Boston Massacre -- that name's probably been used at some Indie wrestling event, but can you think of a better PPV name for when Cena comes back for Orton? (besides Vengeance)
12 Angry Men -- headlined by a 12-man elimination match. Last man standing either wins the title or gets a title shot.

New Year's Evil December 31st every year. Winner...as far as the name. I don't see a New Years Eve ppv selling so well. But I may be wrong. |

I always thought Midsummers Nightmare would be good for a July PPV

There were two episodes of Buffy called "The Great American Bash" and "September To Remember"? ;D The Great American Bash episode was about a zombie Uncle Sam. September to Remember had the whole Scooby Gang getting amnesia right before they were supposed to go back to school. Don't even get me started on the Buffy Cyber Sunday episode.. WWE Main Event Disqualifications. truth in advertising, indeed! |

I say WWE should have a PPV on March 15 and call it the Ides Of March. They should also have a PPV on July 4 and call it Scorn On The Fourth Of July.
Other names:
The Beginning Of The End
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Kill Or Be Killed
No Chance In Hell (I'm amazed there wasn't a PPV named this in 1998-2000)

Theres an AC/DC song called "Bedlam In Belgium", that always sounded like a cool name for an event.
