WWE's first ever all women's pay-per-view is set to take place this coming October at the Nassau Veterans Memorial Coliseum in New York.
As previously mentioned, and as WWE has been pushing quite a bit since they made the announcement, the Evolution show will be the first show in company history to feature all women, which got me thinking about other never-before-done themed shows that WWE could do if they wanted to.
Unfortunately, too much time has passed to where WWE cannot do a WCW themed show, which would've been one of my ideas if this were 2005 instead of 2018. Sure, guys like Sting, Goldberg, Kevin Nash, and a few other significant stars from the now-defunct promotion could probably do another match if they were given time to prepare, but obviously, it wouldn't have the same impact as it would've 10 or 15 years ago.
So, with all of this in mind, let's go over some themed shows that WWE could, and probably should end up doing in the future.
#4 WWE vs. The World
Back in 2015, WWE used pro wrestling legend Jushin "Thunder" Liger in the opening match of the very first NXT Takeover: Brooklyn show, where he defeated Tyler Breeze in a little under 10 minutes.
Liger's appearance at Takeover ended up being a one-time deal, which got me thinking, why can't WWE do this with other big stars from around the world? Obviously, the biggest stars outside of WWE are under contract elsewhere, but to me, I think WWE might benefit from doing a show where their wrestlers take on the best wrestlers from around the world once a year.
Of course, they'd have to play nice and make deals with some of their biggest competitors to make that happen, and they'd have to be willing to have some of their wrestlers lose to a few of the outsiders, otherwise, this idea would be a complete disaster.
#3 Attitude Era vs. Current Roster
Whether or not the "Attitude Era" was truly the greatest era in WWE history is obviously a matter of opinion, but enough people do believe that to be true, which is why I think a current WWE vs. "Attitude Era" themed show would do extremely well.
Unlike with most of the active WCW roster in the late 90s and early 2000s, there are a lot of men and women who could still come back and have great matches -- Chris Jericho, The Rock, the New Age Outlaws, Trish Stratus, Lita, The Undertaker, Triple H, and Kurt Angle are all names from that era who can still perform at an acceptable level.
If WWE does end up doing The Rock vs. Roman Reigns at some point, they'll probably do it at WrestleMania. But, that match would be the perfect main event for an "Attitude Era" vs. current WWE roster themed show.
#2 Queen of the Ring
As many people probably remember, for several years WWE did an annual King of the Ring pay-per-view, where they would obviously crown that year's KOTR. Of course, this tournament hasn't been relevant in WWE for at least over a decade, but a Queen of the Ring tournament could be something worth doing, especially if the winner were to receive a shot at their brand's title.
Doing a Queen of the Ring tournament would also give a chance for WWE to bring some of the girls up from NXT to show what they can perform on the main roster, even if they're only coming up for the tournament, then going back down once they're eliminated.
Also, on top of having NXT vs. main roster matches in the tournament, it would also give WWE a good chance to do some brand vs. brand matches that we wouldn't normally see, which is always good.
#1 WWE vs. NXT
While the "Attitude Era" vs. current WWE roster idea might be the biggest show on this list in terms of overall star power, a WWE vs. NXT show would undoubtedly be the best show the company could do in terms of in-ring quality.
This idea would create a ton of intriguing, first-time-ever matches that would definitely deliver in the ring, however, the only downside of this idea is that it would be the main roster vs. what they consider to be their minor league system, so there's a good chance that they'd portray the NXT roster as not being on the same level as the main roster.
The upside to this idea is that, even if WWE's main roster ended up winning most of the matches, it'd give company management a chance to see how their biggest developmental stars are able to respond to the pressure of performing in front of a larger audience, against a main roster star, on a WWE pay-per-view. To sum it up, it'd give WWE a better idea of what to expect from some of their potential call-ups.
Also, you can put a stipulation in all of the matches where if an NXT star beats a main roster star, then they'll earn a spot on the main roster immediately, which would definitely add intrigue to every match.
