It sucks that my favorite PPV has to come at the start of the year. I absolutely love the Royal Rumble match. No matter who wins, it's always so much fun to watch. Unfortunately, it's usually all downhill from there. If the past two Wrestlemanias are any indication, I better enjoy the start of the journey because the destination is going to be disappointing. I am psyched for tonight, though. Let's get it on!

Knee-Jerk Reaction (Survivor Series 2013)
I've always liked Survivor Series. I'm a big fan of multi-opponent matches like the Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, etc. That most definitely includes the Traditional Survivor Series Elimination match. It irks me the wrong way that every year, I have to hold my breath in anticipation of if the Survivor Series PPV will be on the schedule and will there be a Traditional Elimination Tag match. Neither is a given and both should be. WWE has removed iconic PPVs from their schedule before (hello, King of the Ring). Given, Survivor Series does lose buys for WWE annually, but only because they don't make it as big of a deal as it should be.

On this Day in Pro Wrestling History
1985 - WWF's first full fledged Pay-per-view, The Wrestling Classic, was held at the Rosemont Horizon in Illinois. While Wrestlemania and Wrestlemania 2 had been available in a few markets (in most cases test markets for PPV), the majority of their penetration was via closed-circuit television, which had been used for many years in wrestling. This was the start of WWF (now WWE) changing the way wrestling is presented, with Pay-per-view events eventually becoming an integral part of wrestling. Here are the results of the show, which was built around a one-night tournament.

Knee-Jerk Reaction (Hell in A Cell 2013)
Writing the preview for this PPV yesterday made me really fired up (no pun intended) to see this PPV. I kept calling it a super-stacked and over-hyped card as if it were negative, but it turns out that's exactly what it should have been. That's exactly what we've been needing. The previous few PPVs have been the opposite. Let's hope that WWE doesn't squander such a strong lineup.
