(Non-WrestleMania) PPV of the Year: 2006

[XL]

So I started this a couple months back with the intention of doing one for each year 1998 - 2008, however, I included WrestleMania in the last one and of course it won.

Realising that this would be the case in pretty much every every I have now omitted WM from contention.

I'll go back and do 2007 (and this years) after we're done with 98. Then I'll do a 'Non WM PPV Of The Decade'.

Please vote/post as this does take a little bit of time to put together.
