Big shows like Wrestlemania, Summerslam, etc. still get a big hype to me. The only thing is all the other PPV's ... there's too many and alot of time it just seems like WWE is bum-rushing stuff together to make a PPV card because they have PPV's spread 2 or 3 weeks from each other. To make PPV's seem more important, there needs to be less of them, period.

definitley, 14 PPVs per year is too much.
They need to go back to 1 per month at the end of the month. It will give them plenty of time to set up feuds and build a match.
The hype is gone because there are no surprises anymore. There are barely any 2 guys in the WWE who haven't wrestled each other before.

They just have too many, they need thinning out if they're going to be interpromotional like they have been for the last two years.
This kind of PPV schedule worked when they had separate PPVs for each brand.

Here's what a good PPV schedule shoul look like:
WrestleMania- March/April
Backlash- April/May
Judgment Day- May/June
Great american bash- July
SummerSlam- August
Unforgiven- September
No Mercy- October
Survivor series- November
Armageddon- December
Royal rumble- January
No Way Out- February
Granted the PPVs happen the last sunday of every month, that gives them 4-5 weeks to build each PPV decently.

the ppvs need to be held like in 2003, brand PPVS. The matches were always fully hyped.

It's hard to find a pay per view worth ordering when the price of them meets three weeks of build, or at most, five weeks apart from the last.

I think that are just too many PPV's with little time for build up. Which is why they seem really dull lately. WWE themselves seem to realise this hence why they are taking the easy route by making as many of the lesser PPV's themed like Extreme Rules being all gimmick matches and Night Of Champions being all title matches, to try and sell them better. |

I will always say it. To me, the RAW only or SD! only PPVs were better.
Yes, some people would only buy RAW's and some only SD!'s, but wasn't the brand extention made to have some competition? Also, it would give them more time to build up matches. It was way better.

Definitely. Most of the time, there's 3 weeks between PPV's now. Plus w/ the current state of the economy - for Vince to continue to charge $40 + tax per PPV is BS. The quality of most of the ppv's are not as good of a show as they used to put on either. Never anything too different than you could see for free on Raw, Smackdown, or ECW.

WWE has way too many PPVs, it seems like they are every other weekend.
I miss the old line up.
