WWE Pay Per View(1985)

Then. Now. Forever. Together.

WWE Pay Per View is the professional wrestling promotion's flagship event series, dating back to 1985 when WrestleMania became the company's first PPV broadcast. The "Big Four"—WrestleMania, Royal Rumble, SummerSlam, and Survivor Series—remain the cornerstone events, establishing WWE's annual calendar. From monthly broadcasts in the mid-1990s through the brand extension era of the 2000s, WWE expanded its PPV lineup significantly. When Raw and SmackDown operated as separate rosters, most events alternated between the two brands, though the Big Four always featured the full roster. In 2007, WWE unified its PPV cards to include all performers across brands. By 2008, all broadcasts transitioned to high-definition, modernizing the viewing experience. These events showcase WWE's biggest matches, storylines, and championship moments throughout the year.
