Rumor: WWE Thinking About Using Some WCW PPV Names

WWE has been thinking about possibly using former WCW PPV names for upcoming events “in the near future,” according to Pro Wrestling Sheet.

WWE began using the “Clash of Champions” PPV name last year, replacing “Night of Champions,” and the December 17 SmackDown PPV this year will also be called Clash of Champions.

“The Great American Bash” name was last used in 2008.

This year’s PPVs have already been scheduled and named, so if it does happen, it would either be next year or it could be a WWE Network “special.” Halloween is coming up, so I guess Halloween Havoc could be a possibility.

Here’s a list of the WWE PPVs this year:

January 29, 2017 – Royal Rumble
February 12, 2017 – Elimination Chamber
March 5, 2017 – Fastlane
April 2, 2017 – WrestleMania 33
April 30, 2017 – Payback
May 21, 2017 – Backlash
June 4, 2017 – Extreme Rules
June 18, 2017 – Money in the Bank
July 9, 2017 – Great Balls of Fire
July 23, 2017 – Battleground
August 20, 2017 – SummerSlam
September 24, 2017 – No Mercy
October 8, 2017 – Hell in a Cell
October 22, 2017 – TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs
