The more I think about the possibility of a legit wrestling "off-season" the more I love the idea. WrestleMania. The red hot Raw the next night. Maybe even a live SmackDown on Tuesday as sort of a "preview" to set the stage for the upcoming season.
Then, they go on break. "Best of" shows or old PPVs or something are shown in the current TV timeslots along with hype of the new season. Then whenever the new "season" starts, brand new storylines commence and everyone is refreshed and interested again. Much more interesting than the usual course of the post-WM PPV which is to just rehash the same programs all month.
I realize it will never happen because of the impact on ratings during the month or so they are off not to mention losing the revenue from a month of live events, but fuck it would be nice to give everyone a chance to rest and recharge.
