What are you requesting cause I can do it for you--Nascar king 20:18, 4 September 2010 (UTC).[reply]
Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. Salvio Let's talk 'bout it! 22:48, 4 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a source--Steam Iron 07:57, 11 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I added that because I read somewhere that that's where it would be. So yeah it's unconfirmed.--Nascar king 19:16, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from Ineedanapp, 9 October 2010

{{edit semi-protected}} The date listed for the upcoming Elimination Chamber pay-per-view event is incorrect. It is listed as February 27, 2011. The event will actually take place on February 20, 2011. This can be verified on the official WWE website, WWE.com

Your right it is. I'll fix it.--Nascarking 19:47, 9 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Huh?

Why is there a pay-per-view called "Tonight's the Night"? is it replacing the royal rumble or something? - 68.110.5.148 (talk) 01:33, 18 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not that I know of, it was probably just vandalism. Juggalo Dan 420 (talk) 20:58, 25 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong Night of Champions

When you click on Night of Champions it goes to a body building competition page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.38.203.205 (talk) 00:58, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed.--Mikeymike2001 (talk) 01:01, 29 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

NOC PPV

When was the Night of Champions PPV confirmed? WWE.com Events and the official HSBC Arena site doesn't list Night of Champions at all, so I'm guessing WWE has still not confirmed this event? (Darkside05 (talk) 11:07, 6 May 2011 (UTC))[reply]

Probably because tickets haven't gone on sale for Night of Champions and since the event's 4 months away and it's only right now May. It's not WrestleMania where tickets go on sale 5 months in advance. Regular WWE PPV events go on sale usually 2 or 3 months in advance so chances are it won't be on HSBC Arena's website until tickets go on sale.--Voices in my Head WWE 19:12, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

over the limit 2011

what happened to the wwe over the limit 2011 page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.153.252.149 (talk) 00:14, 14 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Vengeance

Vengeance is being promoted by both Ticketmaster, AT&T Center and WWE Live Event calendar as the October 2011 event however someone keeps changing it to Uprising. Uprising was originally announced as the name but it was recently changed. The confusion results from earlier in the week, when WWE announced to a live crowd that Uprising would be the name but on May 20, 2011 when tickets went on sale, the event was renamed Vengeance.

Sequential numbering for yearly PPVs

I'd like to propose that the articles for each PPV event include the number it took place within a calendar year, similar to how a music artist's album is stated as being their "first studio album", and so on. The lead-in would look something like this, with my proposed addition in bold:


"TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs (2011) was the third annual TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) event produced by WWE, and the fourteenth WWE pay-per-view of 2011."


See I don't even know if it WAS the fourteenth, or the thirteenth. Hell, it could be fifteen for all I know. That's why I'm suggesting the above so as to inform the reader of when, chronologically, a PPV took place. I also think it would be nice if this particular article would include an extensive list of every single PPV, separated by years, starting from The Wrestling Classic up to and including the most recent event—basically the entire chronology. Right now I think it's too condensed and muddled up, especially with so many events either being mainstays, a one-off, or ditched for one year and then brought back sometime later. Since they're ever-changing, lumping them into "active" and "former" is unnecessary and confusing. The brand extension section could use some altering, too. The main text should be incorporated into the history section instead, whilst the statistics would form part of the aforementioned list, with a note on the side stating whether it was brand-specific or not.

Incorect Information

The Night of Champions in 2012 is on September 23rd and not the 16. Also Hell In A Cell is on October 28 and not October 7. There is no mention of Vengeance in 2012. This is where i get my information from.

PPV schedule error

I noticed on the page that the PPV schedule table for the upcoming year has been altered. This was reported on WrestleZone.com from someone who looked up WWE.com's "Shows" page, and as you know with these kind of dirt sheet sites, they do all copy one another. If you look at the two links I have provided, it shows that this page has not been updated in a long time (it is still promoting WrestleMania XXVII from April 2011). I noticed it a while ago and thought that fact that you can not click on the "Shows" tab on the top of the current website is likely an error that no-one has realised to change it (the pictures/graphics for the events are from 2010 also).

http://www.wwe.com/shows

http://web.archive.org/web/20110622114653/http://www.wwe.com/shows/

The archive link is from July 2011 where the page is still the same. WWE recently released a poster for the UK advertising the upcoming 2012 PPV events with no changes to the schedule (http://www.wwe.com/worldwide/uk-2012-ppvs). I think it should be reverted back to its original form. ElliotBayTowers (talk) 19:00, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Under Former PPVs: Taboo Tuesday/Cyber Sunday & Vengence 2011

I just noticed that TT/Cyber Sunday are not listed as former PPVs with Unforgiven, No Mercy etc.

Also, if its noted that Fatal4 & Bragging Rights returns for 2012 were scrapped, why isnt it noted that the return of Vengence 2011 was supposed to be called Uprising?

Protect

Could the article please be protected due to persistent vandalism? Thanks, KANE 19:52, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect Information

There is false information in the upcoming events section of this page. The venues for Money in the Bank 2013, Over The Limit 2013, & Hell in a Cell 2013 are not confirmed by WWE. The reference link next to each refers to the events only and not venues. I'm not very familiar with proper editing techniques on Wikipedia, so I'll leave it to the experts.

June 2013 PPV, and other PPV info

I haven't been able to find ANY source that actually names a June 2013 PPV, only some speculation (or maybe wishful thinking) from a few unreliable ones. WWE hasn't announced any plans for PPVs beyond Extreme Rules besides a listing of DVD releases with a "subject to change" notice. And all this has is names and DVD release dates. No event dates or venues to be found. So as it stands, unless someone can provide a good source, any information about upcoming events past Extreme Rules is pure speculation at best and just fiction at worst. Please refrain from adding events to the upcoming schedule or adding a June pay-per-view name to the Current events list. The June event since 2006 has been: Vengeance, Vengeance: Night of Champions, Night of Champions, The Bash, Fatal 4 Way, Capitol Punishment, and No Way Out. Even if you count the first two or even three as one event, that still means that it's changed every year for the last 4 years. Last year, WWE didn't even add No Way Out to its website, let alone announce a date or venue, until March.

And just for the record, while I would LOVE for the Rumble to be in Anaheim or WrestleMania to be at Dodger Stadium (well, I think I'd prefer the Coliseum or Rose Bowl), changing the page to reflect outright falsehoods is just against the rules. And think how disappointed someone would be to see on Wikipedia that a major event is coming to their town, only to find out later that it was totally false. Wikipedia needs to be a trustworthy source of encyclopedic information. AKKIfokkusuTaLk 23:05, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of main events section

With this article being a list I see know point of having the main events included, This information can be found in the main articles. List of Universal Pictures films does not have a plot synopsis, just the main information. MB1972 (talk) 22:49, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Main events and a plot are two completely different things, the analogy between the two articles makes zero sense. Even if it did, WP:WAX applies, consensus should be achieved before making major controversial changes. STATic message me! 22:57, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
should also question what a main event is. Is a WHC match thats first on the card a main even, is a singles match with no title contested but is on last a main event? MB1972 (talk) 23:08, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

False information

The Big Event 1986, Mayhem in Manchester 1998 and Global Warning 2002 we're all NOT a PPV. Can somebody please correct this?

As for the Big Event, this was simply a House Show in front of a large crowd, later released as home video by coliseum video. Mayhem in Manchester and the Global Warfare-Event we're a one night special show for the UK and Australian market. They we're later released as Home Video. The WWE first televised the UK Event Capital Carnage as a UK-Only PPV and from 1999-2002 they produced two UK PPV Events in a Year. But Mayhem in Manchester was NOT a PPV.

I was wondering about Global Warning, and just commented as such on its own page. Unless someone can come up with a cite that these events were actually PPV's, they really need to be taken off the list.98.243.94.83 (talk) 21:21, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

NXT ArRIVAL

Apparently NXT is having their own PPV on February 27th: http://www.wwe.com/shows/wwenxt/2014-02-12/sami-zayn-cesaro-nxt-arrival-26181744

I don't believe the NXT specials air on traditional PPV venues, just on the WWE Network, thus they don't belong in this list (IMO, anyway). Further, that they air during NXT's weekly Thursday timeslot, just at twice the length and with a more "important" atmosphere and card, I really don't think they count any more than when the King of the Ring aired as part of Raw or the GAB aired as part of SD. Just my thoughts on the matter.98.243.94.83 (talk) 21:25, 8 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 25 March 2014

Please change the location of the June 29, 2014 Money in the Bank PPV from "Boston, MS" to "Boston, MA" -- MS is the wrong state abbreviation. 2607:F140:400:2166:8140:C34B:4CC3:5DD8 (talk) 20:10, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
