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
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.
