The fact that Cyber Sunday or Taboo Tuesday hasn’t been re-done in the social media age is wild to me

A HARD no to ECW returning. It's over. You can't bring back that magic, especially with 'proxies'. Give it up. You further dilute the brand by trying any form of resurrection again.

1 Bring Back Old School PPV Sets 2 Give Us A Fan Interactive PPV 3 Bring Back The Triple Cage Match 4 And Unforgiven 5 Bring Back The Championship Scramble 6 Bring The European Championship 7 Evolution 2. 8 Jim Johntson 9 CFO$ 10 Bring Back Tron Videos

They should lowkey just bring back across the nation for raw. Tell me that wouldn’t be awesome

1. Bring Back across the nation as theme song for Raw 2. Moving graphics in hyping matches 3. Specialty matches should be less seen on TV and PLEs unless its used as a story (steel cage, ladder, hiac, elimination chamber, iron man, i quit, etc.) 4. Wrestlers who doesnt have success as singles should form a tag team with a reason and makes sense to strengthen the tag team division (both men and women) 5. More stories for women aside from competing for a title 6. Bring back Mauro Ranallo 7. Put titles on full time wrestlers for it to be more featured weekly; not neccessarily defending them weekly 8. Online fan voting through social media - to be used rarely 9. Custom sets for PPVs 10. Trades and NXT signings - to create stories or making sense

Triple h should for sure chill with wargames and bring back 5v5 matches, that 2016 raw v smackdown match was incredible, just make wargames happen less often only if the story fits

Evolution 2 should include Marigold and TNA. Can also debut new midcard women's titles.

Oh yeah let's bring back Champion vs Champion matches every year for Survivor Series and let WWE constantly book themselves into a corner when neither man should be losing and devaluing the title they hold.

Evolution 2 absolutely

As a gen-z wrestling fan, you're cooking with "bring back bragging rights" 😂 especially if they bring back the ropes that go from red to blue

Cruiserweight Classic

On a quick side note I just need to say the following based off things Triple H should bring back, he should bring back a legitimate “Monster” to WWE. And after tonight’s smackdown, I’m blown away. I 100% understand WWE and their worries of Jacob outshining Solo upon arrival, I’m new to Jacob upon him entering the WWE and HOL-E-PUCK I get it. The utter dominance, the look, the moves. Bless Smackdown’s roster, I acknowledge Solo purely so I don’t get messed up by Jacob ☝️

Words to live by, "Twitter is not your friend."

1-bring back single brand ppvs... there is enough talent and stories that would hold up ppvs for each brand. 2- bring back older ppv shows (they started doing that slowly like Bad Blood.) 3- bring back traditional survivor series matches. 4- bring back old ppv sets that were unique to each show.

i think a wcw brand inspired by lucha underground, 1 hour a week show on netflix could be super cool. a 4th brand would need to feel very diffrent and the more cinematic promo storyline approach would be a great way to do it

CRUUUUUUUUUISERWEIGHT CLASSIC PLEASE Stipulation matches happening because the feud calls for it, not because there’s a PLE named after it. In that same vein, stipulation matches (other than no DQ) at PLE’s that aren’t named after the stipulation. The hard brand split where we get little to no interaction between wrestlers on different brands so when top stars/best workers on separate brands come together for a match it can feel like a dream match.

Shinedown's "Enemies" was such a good choice for RAW a while back and I'm so sad that the turned away from that.

It’s weird to see ppl wanting the traditional survivor series brand warfare stuff to come back after so many years of complaining but ig I don’t really mind either way tbh.

Evolution 2 would be the perfect place to debut the women's midcard belts if they do a tournament style leading up to Evolution 2 there you go right there.

The music for the intros is interesting because I thought it’d be like the first thing HHH changed considering how much of a metal fan he is

Bring Back Proper Pyro. None of this limp small crackly and pop stuff. Batista's entrance pyro made him feel like a huge star. Just think how Jacob Fatu would look with pyro like that, or Bron Breakker after he does that snap/breaking hand motion in his entrance.

I hate Brand Warfare. It makes no sense to me, that bitter rivales become allies for one night just to defend their brand. The only thing that could change my opinion would be a great price for the overall winners. But what could that be?

All I want is Cyber Sunday and championship scramble matches.

Here's the problem I have with the "brand warfare" concept. There was literally no prize at stake. If they do bring that concept back, put something on the line.

Evolution PPV return definitely needs to happen, so that we can get both WWE Women's, WWE Women's World, WWE Women's Tag, possibly WWE Women's midcard belts, and possibly a non-title grudge match blowoff type thing, all on one night.

great video even tho i havent watched it fully yet!

NXT had the perfect intros that 2017 era and slipknot peak

I think Hunter is bringing stakes to these things look at the Royals of the Rings SummerSlam title shots so maybe a choice spot in the Rumble. Also speaking of Rumble last 6 after the winner should be your Elimination Chamber Participants

So what you're saying is you want it to be 2005 again.

Custom sets is the biggest thing for me. Bring custom different sets for each tv show and each ppv gets a unique set. It may seem like asking a lot nowadays but don’t forget how much money Wwe has. They have stupid money and they should use it more

So , he mentions a bunch of the pairings from the mixed match challenge, but leaves out the best pairing, Alexa & Braun were great together in that.

Woah yous got to see the smackdown fist?? Thats cool! Did they have the backlash hooks there? I love those things!!

HHH is so occupied with profit-maxxing you're never gonna see a big stage ever again unless it's Mania. Gotta fit as many people in there they can. Honestly, if the themes weren't so shit and generic they'd probably get rid of the final remaining trons too if it meant fitting more people in lmao

The winning team of the Survivor Series Elimination match should get 5 random automatic entries into the Royal Rumble between spots 21 and 30.

I'd LOVE for the SD Fist to come back but be "updated". When the SD Fist Stage was around, it was a fist punching through a mirror, hence all the reflective parts of the setup. Lets update that so now the SD Fist is punching through an HD TV! Or punching through the LED screen! Perhaps design some LED screens that look like big pieces of broken TV screen.

I think the Draft should be a PPV, 10 matches for 10 picks, or add a couple tag matches (worth 2 picks) and do 8 matches for 10 picks and it's NXT callups as draft picks like the NBA, NFL, MLB. And you can add a wrinkle at some point where you can use like 2 picks to steal a guy from the other brand. That way the picks are genuinely like NBA lottery pick guys ready to come in and it's a story of it's own, that self perpetuates as a yearly event, where guys can be called "former number one pick" and it means something. Bron Breaker, but done with more purpose and logic. So, it'd be Pearce vs Aldis, putting together their best chance to win, which in itself creates stories for weeks, months, even years moving forward, with their relationship with the roster.

Survivor Series: All under card talent to compete for the draft pick. The 5v1 can make a genuine new star, a tournament gives them incentive to win a spot, idk. Ecw one night stand: All the hard core stipulations, maybe a death match

Wwe should bring back 3 stages of hell match

they need to bring back the smackdown 2019 gate stage

Give me the old elaborate PPV sets, Jim Johnstone for HOF, Cindi Lauper for HOF. Bring back a TV title for women.

Idea for stakes for the Survivor Series match: The five members of the winning team all get title shots in the Elimination Chamber

EVOLUTION 2, YES PLEASE 🙏

They should bring back the traditional 5 on 5 elimination Survivor Series match but have the winning brand get the number 30 spot in the Royal Rumble

I would love to see him bring back the Armogeddon PPV, and the 6-man Hell in a Cell

The idea of the draft pick for a Survivor Series is good, but only for the GM (Kayfabe). In order to make the wrestlers also want to be part of the team, as well as give their all to win, could be something like: The winning team is given a tournament on their show for a final five spot in the Royal Rumble (out of the five on the winning team four will have one on one matches, the best team member: last remaining, most eliminated, or some amount of the two gets the "bye" will then meet the winners of the first round in a triple threat for the Rumble spot.) Curious if this sounds good or not. Keep up the great stuff Steve.

For stakes to a brand vs brand, I'd go with the winners of the match get to redraw their first Rumble number if they don't like it but must accept the second one.

Okay hands up who spiked Steve's drink 😂😂 ECW one night stand in 2024 The functional hips line was hilarious so i will give ya that. 😂

I don't like the idea of bringing back ECW again. I feel like the time has passed for that.

IDC what they do with Survivor Series I just want WarGames to be apart of NXT.

Hear me out. Have Big E record to a hype introduction to RAW and Smackdown before kicking into the music like he did for the New Day. That would get the audience hyped at the beginning of everyshow.

Survivor Series could have a nice little yearly rotation with Brand vs. Brand, Wargames and the traditional elimination matches. You could do 2 if the 3 each year.

I think the thing they could do, at least this year, is do an NXT v TNA match at Survivor Series. Also, Evolution 2 could feature more women from not only the WWE roster, but now their partners like TNA and Marigold. Kinda make it a feature of women’s wrestling overall.

I miss the Raw intro by Union Underground. That got me hyped up for the show.

I've always loved the elimination match as a concept and when I was a kid and they were doing them they were fun because they tied in a lot of different feuds into one match. But you're right these days, no stakes, no incentives or consequences in the recent ones.

To your point about adding stakes to the elimination matches, I like the one from I believe Suvivor series 04 or 05 where the winning team each became GM for a week. It’s something I can see ppl wanting as a face or heel, I don’t see the top pick being a motivating factor for some people

Feel like everyone hated the Survivor Series brand warfare stuff when it was happening, and the 5v5 Survivor Series matches was bland as f. There was a reason why Survivor Series was dying as a PPV for a while before War Games.

Would love for the championship scramble to come back, I know at the time people didn’t like it but as a kid I loved it, especially the wwe championship match where Jeff hardy was seconds from winning it, would work well where there’s so many top guys atm

Im pretty positive steve and larson complained about Brand Warfare while it was happening, but once it was over they wasnted it back for some reason

Brand warfare is a no for me. It's never been believable that these people who all work for one company are super loyal to the show they have been wrestling on for 6 months after having wrestled on the other show for 6 months. The only way it really works is if the brands are kept completely separate with absolutely zero crossover and no draft. And that can't happen with having titles that float around, like Corbin just going to NXT because he was bored. It doesn't work.

I want a fourth brand for utilising main roster talent. But I don't want a 4th world champion. We already have 3 world champs actually 2 since NXT is no more a world title

They should bring back the Union Underground Across the Nation as the theme song for Raw that always got me pumped up and Marilyn Manson the Beautiful People for SmackDown

Survivor Series Champion vs Champion is a good idea, but I wouldn't make it the entire theme of the show, just the world title. Put the belt on CM Punk before Survivor series, then you got Cody vs CM Punk champion vs Champion, and I assume a wargames match featuring a Roman lead bloodline vs Solo lead bloodline. That's one hell of a card.

Thank you! I need some hardcore music to get me hyped for a show.

I like brand warfare but it should be a constant thing. Like when the draft first became a thing and red & blue were obviously and wildly different. All brands taking subtle jabs at each other, the rare but impactful superstar invasion, (ALL 3) GM's occasionally invading to attempt or successfully poach talent, all this.

One thing I really don’t understand is why papa Paul is so against 6 or 7 match cards for PPVs. Like yeah we all hate 3-4 hour shows, but seriously, 5 matches is just not gonna cut it for a roster this massive. Also I’m actually against highlight reels on the tron. I’ve never in my life seen a jumbotron highlight reel that didn’t feel massively cringey.

I personally want and need them to bring back more global tournaments like the Mae young classic or the cruder weight classic. It would be nice to see them return or something along those lines and you could use nxt guys as well as finding some random people from the indies too

Triple H needs to bring back his my time theme

One women's mid card title that floated from brand to brand would be cool..could involve nxt as well.

Tougher hardcore Wrestling, once WWE is on Netflix and the age-rating can be moved up again. Actual Titantron-videos of wrestlers kicking ass instead of just having a logo. Unique entrance themes.

I want back the moving wrestler graphics match cards and use it more often… I miss it

Fan interactive PPVs. But since the whole texting thing is out of date, you vote on match types via X. Could be a logistical nightmare cause it can’t really be rigged cause we can see the live results. But aye🤷🏽‍♂️

A hard no to any idea that is basically "Let's rely on nostalgia". Both WWE and AEW are already too reliant on that. The booking, in-ring work etc should be good enough on it's own rather than hoping the ECW or WCW branding distracts from any flaws.

ONE traditional survivor series match per year and ONE war games match per year at survivor series.

Here is a hot take I just thought of. Given the condition that Seth vs Damian main events MITB 2024, what if: Instead of Punk causing Drew to fail his cash-in, when Drew tries to cash-in, Punk blindsides him and hits him with the belt, takes a good look at the belt, steals the case, and runs to the crowd like how he did it in MITB 2011. This becomes an enough distraction for Seth and Damian retains the WHC. After the show, Drew searches for Punk all over the arena but can't find him, he's confronted by Pearce like what happened irl, hits him, and gets suspended. Punk keeps the briefcase hostage, and after some time, Punk dares Drew to put his briefcase on the line at SummerSlam. Because of Drew's arrogance, he accepts the challenge. This way, the MITB is not wasted and is used better as a storyline device. Also Raw and Smackdown trons and rock intro theme songs should be back.

They could always start A All Women's Program With It's Own Opening Video

Bring back the Bingo draft. It gave a sense of anyone could go anywhere. Bring back cage matches where the only way to win was to climb over the top of the cage. You can still have the pin/submission/door types, I just want to see someone actually climb the cage to leave for once.

1. I like this idea because the brand warfare aspect… plus PLEs being shorter… I think separate brand PLEs would be perfect with the current model especially with fans complaining about a lack of people being on the card.. 2. Evolution II could be a showing for the women right after Survivor Series and before the rumble because this season.. since the Rumble is the in February this year, there’s I believe eight weeks in between Survivor Series and the Rumble, it can really help give the women a big card and put it in a city where people will show up. 3.) I agree…. I think Triple H during his era in NXT had some damn good PPV themes for the Takeover events…. Actual better themes for show openers

Since we getting bad blood this year i can def see them pushing war hames for that ppv and have a traditional tag at survivor series

I’m an original ECW fan, and my hips still work. My knees on the other hand 🤣🤣🤣

here's something that should come back: braking point aka submission rules ppv

With the recent TNA stuff, you could do NXT vs TNA SurivvorSeries weekend.

A fun way to do a Brand warfare SS would have a traditional survivor series match influence which brand got the advantage in a brand vs brand wargames match.

just NOOOO to anything ecw or wcw those ships are deader then the titanic hell those ecw wcw ships are as broken and rusted and dead as the current titanic.

i have a good idea steve…i like war games at survivor series but i think we should still get at least one traditional survivor series match every year…but for the love of all things holy dont do raw vs smackdown rofl

You can’t look at stages like Armageddon 2008 and the old backlash stage and tell me that you wouldn’t prefer those on PLE’s as opposed to the same boring entrance stages on RAW and SD.

Survivor Series should be the all-star game of WWE. The Brand vs. Brand idea needs to be less about brand warfare and more about the fans picking their favorite wrestlers on each team. Also they need to have different creative goals on each show. Raw and Smackdown still feel kind of the same. It would be nice if they were a little more differentiated.

Bring back Braggin Rights instead and keep Survivor Series with the WarGames theme.

Winning team at survivor series qualifies for the elimination chamber for world title shot at mania

Championship Scramble Match!

Absolutely bring back Traditional Survivor Series tag matches. I'm not really a big fan of Wargames matches and prefer Elimination matches as it's a definitive way to see who's better.

He needs to bring back the wild card finals

God please no brand warfare.. it was stupid back then and it'd be stupid now. Was not a fan of the teams wearing all red and blue shirts. Bragging Rights didn't really amount to anything. Traditional Survivor Series matches would be cool, but keep it faction vs faction related. Although I'll do you one better. War Games, but in reverse. You start with all 4(or 5?) in both cages at once. Instead of the match ending after 1 person is pinned. Do it elimination style.

We need bragging rights to return so everyone is happy

#BringBackWCW

I remember when people shit on CFO Dollar sign because they werent Jim Johnson. Man we had it great back then

Steve is kinda the id of wrestling fandom. Just wants the essential needs & wants.

Definitely a hard NO on the traditional survivor series match.. Mainly because we already get Smackdown vs Raw in certain matches a few times a year. Plus it doesn't get a six months to a year's worth of buildup unlike War Games

Bring back the red and blue ring ropes....

1.Bring back the Mae young classic even if their isn't enough free agent women's talent to make another MYC you can still do it with the raw, smackdown & nxt rosters. You could even sprinkle in tna & marigold talent on the bracket as wild cards. To also give it steaks besides winning a trophy do something like winner gets a shot at any women's title at royal rumble or gets to be number 30 in the royal rumble. 2. Bring back the evolution ppv because their is a lot of women on raw, smackdown & nxt to make it happen. Wwe could also invite tna & marigold to defend their titles & this would be a perfect place to have women's mid card title be crowned 3. Bring back 3 stages of hell to main roster especially to end feuds that call for it. 4. Bring back the cruiserweight classic & cruiserweight title but don't make talent exclusive too a cruiserweight division. Their is a lot of cruiserweight talent on all 3 rosters too make this happen. Just maybe raise the weight limit to like 210.

I'd like Trips to bring back the Reign of Terror but I'm guessing that's out of the question?
