WWE PPVs

Honestly they should just mine old WCW ideas for concepts.

That, of course, is another way of saying JUST PLEASE BRING BACK WARGAMES ALREADY DAMMIT.

I think Wargames only really works if you've got stables. Or at least one heel stable.

Back when there was Nexus for example and it was hot, it would have worked.

They could probably do a smaller version of War Games with the Elimination chamber if they wanted. That fits 6 people (2 people starting, with 4 in the pods). So they could pull off a 3 on 3 sort of team thing.

I wouldn't be overlly excited, because i have lost my love of gimicky cage matches.
Since they don't allow blood anymore Hell In a Cell is no better than a normal cage match.
Which also use to have blood.
...
They need to bring blood back.

I do agree that Hell in the Cell has lost most of it's aura.

Since no one takes the big cage bump anymore (not that I blame them), and because they're more PG now (truthfully I don't blame them for that either, though I miss it), it really waters down what you can do in the cage.

I still think it's better than your atypical cage match. Because it surrounds the entire ring, it gives you access to the stuff at the bottom. So you can bring into play table, ladders, chairs, etc. So you can at least do TLC type bumps and such in the cage. It's something at least.

Agreed. Yeah I get it WWE need to keep the PG image but they should be willing to make some exceptions to some PPV's and gimmick matches that require blood and HITC is one of those exceptions. Without the use of blood it takes away the entertainment value of HITC as some people anticipate on a wrestler being busted open whenever they enter the match

I thought Vince McMahon is intelligent businessman But apparently I'm wrong because any one that has half a businessman mind Knows if he leave the Two tv shows PG and make the WWE PPVS TV-14 that make who hates PG buys them

Especially since we see guys bleed all the damn time anyway.
Im nto saying they need to juice every match, but if you are guys to have things like Daniel Bryans blood stained teeth on national tv on smackdown, or Cody Rhodes having his head cracked open and a fountain of blood coming out, you can do it the fake way on a ppv to build some drama.

After speaking with several WWE sources over the weekend, WZ has learned that the company does not currently have plans to bring in any outside talent for this year's Royal Rumble match.

Unlike last year's Royal Rumble match, which featured 40 wrestlers and saw names like Booker T and Kevin Nash make their WWE returns, WZ has been told that this year's match is more likely to focus on names that are already with the company, and if there are any surprise entrants, they will likely be names such as The Undertaker, who is not considered an "outside talent."

WZ was also told that creative has been discussing the idea of potentially featuring a few FCW developmental talents in the match this year, although this has not been confirmed. It is more likely, however, if there are a few slots left in the match to fill, that WWE will go with in-house names rather than outside names making a "one-time appearance/return."

WWE officials are hopeful that Christian will be cleared to return from injury in time for the Royal Rumble. He has been sidelined since November 9, 2011 due to an ankle injury.



Could he be the winner?

I wouldn't be against a Christian/D-Bryons match for the world title at WM.

As much as I like Christian, I can't say he's any sort of favorite. But a wrestler returning from an injury historically does have a good shot at winning those things.

Still think the smart money is on Jericho winning, and challenging CM Punk though.

I would bet millions Bryan loses the belt before WM.

I dont see him keeping the belt around Elimination Chamber myself

Definetly not, might lose it at rumble i think.
Edit: if they want him to be a legit heel, he should get a win over Show though, imo, or he risks being another christian/Miz/Truth.

This. Especially since Show cant draw as a main event champ and he isn't entertaining enough.

Show can't draw, but i wouldn't say he isn't entertaining.
As far as acting goes, he's one of the better guys on the roster, and he does his big guy bit well.
But in general, i see what you're getting at.
