The gimmick matches use to mean something back in the day. Bring back Great American Bash or some other one.

NOC is the only one that I don't mind staying.

Gimmicks are how the E cooks, tho. If one gimmick goes, another coming in.

Are you saying bring back THEMED events?

It's not about getting rid of them. Back in the days when someone challenged someone to a TLC or HIAC, we would :gladbron: Now it's an annual thing.

Even MITB was better at Mania. I hope we only get 1 going this year since the belts are "combined."

Money in the Bank is still once a year and I think ill be in the minority when I say I like the fact that it has its own PPV. Now the others, like Hell In A Cell and TLC, those ppvs need to go. A Hell In A Cell match should the last stop in a blood fued to settle all accounts. Not some random match between two dudes beefing for a month. That shyt is watered down. Same thing with TLC. They should be used on those rare occasions to give you that "Oh shyt" face.

Those two, along with some of the other gimmick ppvs just goes to the lazy booking WWE employs on some "Ehh Hell In A Cell, nikkaz will cop b/c of that, whatever,"

Totally agree. The thing I hate about the gimmick PPVs like HIAC is that it's always just two guys rushed in to a HIAC match for the title that have only been feuding for a month. It is so predictable and doesn't get me interested in the match at all. Having said that, I don't mind that MITB/Elimination chamber as they fit in with the 'WWE season' just like the Rumble and Mania. But yeah, scrap the HIAC/TLC type PPVs.

MITB is fine having it's own PPV, i mean, i do miss it from Wrestlemania, but the last couple PPVs of it have been pretty damn good, the rest however should be changed up.

Bring back Taboo Tuesday
