Next up on our list is a head scratcher. The name is a bit out there, even for WWE standards. Let's be honest here, ladies and gentlemen, what exactly is "taboo" about Tuesday? How random of a name can you get here?

Now, before I go any further, I will give the WWE credit where it's due for wanting to try something new, something fresh for the time. The year 2004 was a rebuilding year for the WWE after losing the likes of Brock Lesnar, Goldberg, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, along with a new direction in place that featured Eddie Guerrero and Chris Benoit at the forefront of the company as respective World Champions for both RAW and SmackDown, respectively.

The idea behind the show is something that nowadays seems like not a big thing, but for the time was revolutionary. The WWE gave the fans a chance to vote for who they would like to see wrestle this guy or that guy, pick a match stipulation, things of that nature.

The voting itself was subject to criticism. Many fans felt the voting system through WWE.com was rigged or purposely set up. Chris Jericho would call out wrestling fans and claim the voting system was indeed 100% legit.

The problem is, when you this idea for a wrestling show and base around fans voting for what they would like to see, the name itself doesn't fit at all whatsoever. The following year, we would see the name dropped for "Cyber Sunday", with the exact same concept. Arguably, that name was better than Taboo Tuesday. To date, the WWE has filed trademark for the name Taboo Tuesday so we may see the return of this event at some point down the road.

The event itself was a success, in spite of the name. We saw some good matches on the show, specifically the Steel Cage Match between Randy Orton and Ric Flair. Triple H successfully defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Shawn Michaels, an Chris Benoit and Edge capturing the World Tag Team Titles over La Resistance.

The concept was good, but the execution of the name was a bitter pill to swallow.
