@@wrestlinghistorian19 is a close second to me. The 5 main events were all great. Hhh/booker, michaels/Jericho, hogan/McMahon, austin/rock, angle/lesner
We could’ve have had that, but Austin still wasn’t able to physically get in the ring to do some action. Shows u how much of a big deal Austin was even in his absence.
Backlash 2000 main event still might be my favorite Attitude Era match. The anger after Wrestlemania, when a heel had never retained, the anticipation of Austin’s return, the ref strike gimmick - everything came together for a final 5 minutes that’s damn near untouchable.
Sad there's no love for Fully Loaded 2000. That show is legit a 10/10 from start to finish. Chris Benoit vs the Rock Kurt Angle vs the Undertaker Chris Jericho vs HHH in a last man standing match Val Venis vs Rikishi in THAT cage match This show was incredible and deserved to be on this list.
@erictorres112 it definitely deserves to be talked about more in my opinion. Like how the hell did the ring not break from that? How did he not just actually kill Val Venis? Like, the bump looked really safe considering who it was doing it. Nothing against rikishi, I've heard he's genuinely one of the safest workers to ever step foot in the ring, but like, I would not have agreed to do that if it were me lmao
SummerSlam 02 is one of my favorite shows from a personal note. I started watching wrestling around that time period with my grandfather and about a year later I watched this show on from Blockbuster. Just an excellent show, nothing more to be said.
Summerslam 2002 is such a flawless or near flawless show. Every match was at minimum good and yes that includes taker vs test. my favorite Summerslam and PPV of all time with mania 17 being close second.
Got into wrestling as a kid in the summer of 2002. Realizing now how unbelievably spoiled I was that in my first 9 months of wrestling PPVs I got Summerslam 2002, Survivor Series 2002, and Wrestlemania XIX
I don't think Night of Champions 2023 deserves to be an honorable mention It has the really good main and really good opener, but that's really it Rhea beating Nattie in little over a minute, Trish vs. Becky was fine but felt a bit flat, Gunther vs. Ali was decent but very predictable, Asuka and Bianca had a decent match that had a good finish but was otherwise a bit forgettable, and Cody with a broken arm not submitting to Brock Lesnar which was some 2010 John Cena levels of booking
I would swap Wrestlemania 40 with 39. While 40 may have better stories and the culmination of several long title reigns, 39 is absolutely fantastic from an in-ring point of view.
I feel like Vengeance 2005 is often overlooked as one of the best PPV's of that year let alone all time. It had Kurt Angle vs Shawn Michael's 2, a decent Triple Threat match for the WWE Championship and most importantly. Batista's best match up until that point for the World Heavyweight Championship inside the Hell in a Cell against Triple H
I'm partial to my first WWE live event of In Your House: Bad Blood in 1997...the First Hell In a Cell match...It was like nothing I'd ever seen before...
My favourite of all time has to be One Night Stand 2008. Every match was insane with a stacked roster and also since it was probably one of my first PPVs I watched as a kid so that could play a part.
100%. I was in that crowd (four rows behind the announce table). I've never seen a crowd that hot again, and I've attended multiple WrestleMania shows since. It was really something special.
Wrestlemania X7 was my first Wrestlemania. After that the bar was set unreasonably high and I was always disappointed since nothing could live up to how good that show was.
Wrestlemania X-seven was the very first wrestling show my friends and I ever went to and I can tell you when we were leaving we were talking about how we would probably never go to another wrestling show again because this would never be beat.
I don't get the derision for the term "Premium Live Event" over "Pay-Per View." People rarely order events on PPV anymore, so renaming them PLEs is one of the few WWE name changes that actually makes sense. Edit: ECW One Night Stand is way too high on this list. A very fun nostalgia show, but that's it. 9th or 10th place, maybe. But second place? Nah.
You definitely forgot or didn’t see Summerslam 2000? Great ending with Angle leaving with Stephanie, classic tlc match , undertaker almost unmasking Kane for the first time and Steve Blackman hitting Shane off the titantron was legendary!
Money In The Bank 2011 is my all-time favorite pay-per-view of all time mostly because it has my top two favorite wrestlers of all time in the main event. So that's my bias.
Mania 40 is spectacular no doubt, but due to recency bias, it got a little bit overrated imo (not as good as 17, 19, 24, 28, 31 though) whereas Mania 39 is even a better show👍We literally have at least 6 modern classics at Mania 39: Charlotte vs Ripley, Usos vs Owens/Zayn, Men's Tag Team Showcase, Rollins vs Paul, Gunther vs Sheamus vs McIntyre, Reigns vs Rhodes⭐Night 2 main event was amazing despite the finish (which also leads to the satisfying ending we got to see at Mania 40 a year later)
I am all for the love for 39. But 40 would be over 19, 24, and 28 for me. But it’s all perspective and opinion. I can totally see how people could debate a top 5 in any order for sure
One thing that WWE fans may have forgotten about Scotty 2 Hotty in the year 2000 is that he had his ankle broken by Kurt Angle's ankle lock! It looked reminiscent of Sycho Sid breaking his leg when he jumped off the second rope to deliver a one foot diving dropkick! That was graphic as hell to see!
I can remember most of the ppv’s 2000-2006, even the order and which month they happened. But 2008-2020 is a blur. This list confirms it’s the quality of those shows. We were spoiled during that time.
Actually, it was the only WWE PPV where every championship that was defended that night changed hands. The Smackdown Tag Team championship was defended & changed hands, but the Raw(then known as the world tag team championship) was not defended. It would be defended by the champions against Booker T & Goldust at the Armageddon 2002 PPV.
I watched Backlash 2000 at the movie theatre when they used to sell tickets for PPVs, and I remember only one girl cheering for Triple H when he came out and then the place going nuts when The Rock came out.
Please 🙏can you make video for the greatest 101 matches in the history of wrestling matches from wwe or out side wwe like when you talk about the greatest 101 wrestlers in the history ❤❤❤
From an In-Ring perspective, yes. From a long term storytelling perspective? WrestleMania XL was way better. If you look solely at the show itself and not the build or everything surrounding it then WrestleMania X-Seven was superior. But the build to WrestleMania X-Seven focused way too much on Austin's Wife and while the My Way video package was pretty awesome, the actual story leading up to it sucked. Vince McMahon joining forces with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin had literally no build up to it (minus Austin saying he'd do anything to get the belt. Which makes total sense why he'd be so desperate considering the fact that The Rock had literally never beaten him up to this point) and Austin's Heel Run, as interesting of an idea as it was, was terrible in it's execution. Time will only tell how WrestleMania XL ages but the future of WWE seems bright and I honestly believe WrestleMania XL will have way more historical importance.
Wrestlemania XL had the Usos match that had such a plot-holed storyline and the match was lackluster. Gunther vs Sami was a missed opportunity because everyone wanted Chad Gable to be on Sami´s spot; Sami had 0 story with Gunther. Any other match had bad progression like: Bailey becoming World Champion in one of the worst runs ever; Logan Paul retaining only to defend the championship two times in 4 months; the tag titles being split to be part of a dead tag-division. WMXL was good, definitively a turning point in the company. But, to say that WMXL was WAY better than X-Seven on a storyline perspective is nuts.
Yall should do a video on the best PPV for every separate event, best mania , best summer slam, even wcw best starrcade, bash, all that good stuff. Then best match from every one too that would be sick
Great list guys the only things that I would change is I’d say only WMXL Night 2 was worth this list outside of The Rock in the main event it was meh also Jey Uso should of beat Gunther not Sami I’d replace Summerslam13 with WWF One Night Only sure on paper. The card doesn’t look like much but every match on the card is very entertaining. It’s one of my favorite pay-per-view’s I’d also replace WM19 with Royal Rumble 2001 the royal rumble had some of the best moments and the undercard was very storyline field, leading up to wrestlemania 17 and that incredible ladder match for the IC title with Benoit & Y2J
I'll tip my hat to Survivor Series 2003, which had a stacked card that met expectations. The only "bad" match was Goldberg Vs. Triple H, which was a bore but had a dope ending that perfectly encapsulated Goldberg's character.
Backlash 2000 was a solid follow-up from Wrestlemania. Even better than that years Wrestlemania. Stone Cold coming out with the chair and laying out the entire Mcmahon-Helmsley faction was one of the loudest pops you'll ever hear during any WWF/WWE PPV.
Wrestemania 17 was my first Wrestlemania I had ever watched, and it was so much fun. It kind of sucks that my first was the best ever, because they went steadily downhill after this until I stopped watching
I swear I was watching the vid and as we get to #2 I said “maaan this better include my wrestle mania”…then I see X-Seven and say “YA GOT DAMN RIGHT!!!” 😂 I remember this was the first ever PPV my dad got me and I watched it with relatives and few others..and it was just a Fun time, Both the Lead Alpha for the WWF(e) title already sells this card but that TLC 2 Match was phenomenal…was just a “press play and watch” thing that you just had to be there for..
While any top ten list is subjective, I have to agree with this list almost entirely - sub Survivor Series with No Way Out 2001 (even in the exact same spot) and I would say the list is spot on!
I remember being 10 years old finally convincing my parents to buy a ppv in Backlash 2000. Sadly they made me go to bed before the main event because I had school the next morning 🥲

Yep
Backlash 2000 is what WrestleMania 2000 or 16 should've been
We could’ve have had that, but Austin still wasn’t able to physically get in the ring to do some action. Shows u how much of a big deal Austin was even in his absence.
Same with Backlash 1999
Agreed! I wore out my WWE Backlash 2000 vhs watching it so much!
my whole family went, but I got sick and me and my dad had to go home D:
Absolutely. I was really disappointed in Mania16.

Kurt Angle vs the Undertaker
Chris Jericho vs HHH in a last man standing match
Val Venis vs Rikishi in THAT cage match
This show was incredible and deserved to be on this list.
I'm currently watching that on peacock and Rikishi did a freaking splash from on top of the cage, I feel like that doesn't get talked about often
@erictorres112 it definitely deserves to be talked about more in my opinion. Like how the hell did the ring not break from that? How did he not just actually kill Val Venis? Like, the bump looked really safe considering who it was doing it.
Nothing against rikishi, I've heard he's genuinely one of the safest workers to ever step foot in the ring, but like, I would not have agreed to do that if it were me lmao
Should have been on the list over SummerSlam 2013.
Yes! And the Rock was great pre-roids :)
Would you say the PPV was....fully loaded?
Raven vs Big Show vs Kane deserves it's mention by name not just a quick photo op. I'm sure Tom agrees with me!
One of the best hardcore matches in WWE history. All 3 men brought it.
Feel like Wrestlemania X7 to predecessors should have been included, Royal Rumble and No Way Out 2001
Agreed. I thought it would just be those 3 all together lol
Backlash 2001 is an incredible PPV too. A solid 4 PPVs in a row to kick off 2001.

Unforgiven 2006. Trust me.
IMO One Night Stand 2006 is better than 2005
I would swap Wrestlemania 40 with 39.
While 40 may have better stories and the culmination of several long title reigns, 39 is absolutely fantastic from an in-ring point of view.
X7 will always be the undisputed number 1 ppv.

Wrestlemania 17 still hasn’t been topped yet for me. Thats not to say there’s no other great PPV’s, just 17 was just the pinnacle of wrestling.
Money In The Bank 2011 is my all-time favorite pay-per-view of all time mostly because it has my top two favorite wrestlers of all time in the main event. So that's my bias.
No Way Out 2001, Royal Rumble 2000, Fully Loaded 2000 all got snubbed for recency bias
Backlash 2000. The Hardcore title match was unreal too but the main event was nothing short of beauty!

Scotty 2 Hotty vs Dean Malenko from Backlash 2000 is an underrated gem of a match that doesn't get enough love imo.
One thing that WWE fans may have forgotten about Scotty 2 Hotty in the year 2000 is that he had his ankle broken by Kurt Angle's ankle lock! It looked reminiscent of Sycho Sid breaking his leg when he jumped off the second rope to deliver a one foot diving dropkick! That was graphic as hell to see!

The Royal Rumble 2001 should be on this list. Canadian Stampede is a great PPV but RR 01 is objectively better all things considered.

Actually, it was the only WWE PPV where every championship that was defended that night changed hands. The Smackdown Tag Team championship was defended & changed hands, but the Raw(then known as the world tag team championship) was not defended.

Y’all made it through speaking about One Night Stand without mentioning JBL beat up the Blue Meanie. Congrats.
Some of us are old enough to remember the ppv's before the year 2000, Wrestlemania 3 is iconic and should be on the list.
X seven head and shoulders the best. It had everything
While any top ten list is subjective, I have to agree with this list almost entirely - sub Survivor Series with No Way Out 2001 (even in the exact same spot) and I would say the list is spot on!
Honest observation: ever WrestleMania that can be divided by 10 (X, XX, XXX, and XL) are either good to really great Manias.
I remember being 10 years old finally convincing my parents to buy a ppv in Backlash 2000. Sadly they made me go to bed before the main event because I had school the next morning 🥲
To this day, I believe Christian vs Del Rio at Summerslam 2013 is one of the biggest hidden gems in WWE.
