I absolutely HATE this move, and I am not someone who enjoyed the golden era of the Survivor Series. The way Vince McMahon explained this move really pissed me off, too. He said something like "consumers actually look at what they're buying these days." What the fuck is that meant to mean?
It just bothers me that the WWE wants their PPVs to be gimmicked, or whatever, and then they decide to cut one with so much history, and a ready-made gimmick attached to it. The WWE could very easily have 60 people on its roster at any given time. If you divide that into teams of 4 you have 15 teams right there. That's too many. Cut it down to about 12, and you can have another Divas match on the card, and there's seven Elimination Matches right there. Done. Why can't the WWE just do a PPV schedule like this: January: Royal Rumble February: No Way Out March/April: WrestleMania April: Backlash May: War Games June: King of the Ring July: World War III August: Summerslam September: Vengeance October: No Mercy November: Survivor Series December: Starrcade The Royal Rumble is self-explanitory. PPVs named after the match, besides certain concepts like the Rumble, are stupid. Elimination Chamber is fucking bad. Go back to No Way Out, which was a fitting name for a PPV featuring the Elimination Chamber, anyway. WrestleMania should also never be touched. Backlash is a name that I've never been keen on, but the PPV does alright for itself, doesn't it? Why change what isn't broke? War Games does not sound as bad as Elimination Chamber. Let them do that one. King of the Ring is a gimmicky concept that should definitely return. World War III is a concept I never saw, but even if they just bring back the name. You could use this PPV to work out a challenger for a World Title at Summerslam, which should stay the same. Vengeance could be the name for the "Night of Champions" PPV. Even if they use "Night of Champions" as a tagline for the PPV. Vengeance carries some important history as the WWE Title and WCW Title were unified at the first PPV. Play up that eight PPV history, and let Vengeance put every title on the line. No Mercy could feature the brand wars, and include a lot of "Champion vs. Champion" matches. Or it could be all "specialty matches." And then to close the year you have Survivor Series and Starrcade, both which carry enough of a legacy to go forward without being touched. |
