WWE.com’s Top 15 Pay Per Views

Oh this is going to be fun.  I’ll even throw in my overall rating in parentheses.

Honorable Mentions:

Summerslam 1991 (C-. Never got why this was supposed to be great overall)

Wrestlemania X (A-)

Great American Bash 1996 (C-. THat one needs a redo)

Barely Legal (C-. That’s a feel good show and nothing more.)

Backlash 2000 (A. Why is this just an honorable mention?)

InVasion (B-)

Summerslam 2002 (A+. This should be third at worst.)

15. Survivor Series 1995 (B)

14. Heat Wave 1998 (D.  I have NEVER gotten the appeal of this show)

13. Backlash 2009 (B)

12. Bash at the Beach 1996 (B+)

11. Extreme Rules 2012 (A)

10. In Your House 16: Canadian Stampede (A+)

9. No Way Out 2001 (A)

8. One Night Stand 2005 (A+)

7. Summerslam 2013 (A-)

6. Great American Bash 1989 (B+)

5. Wrestlemania III (A+)

4. Spring Stampede 1994 (A-)

3. Royal Rumble 2000 (A+. Amen.)

2. Money in the Bank 2011 (A)

1. Wrestlemania X7 (A++)

Some of those are in the wrong place (Summerslam 2002 not being in the top 3 is questionable.  Not having it on the list is unacceptable).  They got #1 right and while MITB 2011 at #2 is a stretch, I can’t argue with most of this list at all, save for the ECW shows.  They just don’t compare.
