As somebody who was at Elimination Chamber 2017, everybody in the building left that show happy and joyful, which honestly seems to feel like a rarity for most PPVs nowadays. I still have vivid memories of an arena full of people happily singing "He's Got the Whole World in His Hands" as we all made our way out.
Fahim Rahman agreed. The rosters are pretty small rn but pack a punch. It’s perfect. And a lot of young talent can work some ppvs because of the amount of performers opting to stay home
This was the year Jinder Mahal held the WWE Championship and Brock Lesnar held the Universal Championship. The prestige of those titles defiantly went down because of it.
thenoose 2k The Universal title didn’t lose any prestige because Brock Lesnar a bonafide main event star was holding it. It lost prestige because of the terrible booking and because he defended it 4 times a year and that was garbage. That’s what made the title go down.
@@jordandennis6794 Bruh he had one good match with Lesnar at Mania 33 and that's it. He made Owens' title reign look worst than it already was, and barely put anyone over. And don't get me started on him killing the Fiend. I like Goldberg, but history speaks for itself.
2017 was bad year for WWE just because of world championships. Brock was mostly absent from there and we had Jinder as the world champion on Smack Down
@@BigEvil6686 What was so excellent about Brock vs Roman in probably the worst WM main event of all time,pointless Jinder Mahal title win,fuckking Nia Jax winning the women's championship and of all the possibilities of a Braun Strowman tag team partner they chose a random kid from the crowd...... I may have been high back then but you certainly seem to be high right now to be calling such a terrible show excellent
@@BigEvil6686 WOAH WOAH WOAH WOAH ..... You think 34 was better than their banger at 31????? Wow..... 31 was one of Bricks best matches since his return. 34 was abysmal and the booking was worse.
Exactly he nerve mentioned the match but had Naomi on the cover of the video that is just further proof Naomi is just being disrespected as a AMAZING superstar
RR was a 1-2 match show, Mania was meh, a botched cash in, a dude winning the women’s MITB match, Jinder’s reign, and even more. Most of 2017 was ass. The MVP’s of 2017 were AJ, Braun, and surprisingly Brock.
My Top 10 Favorite WWE Matches Of 2017 1.John Cena Vs. AJ Styles Vs. Bray Wyatt Vs. Dean Ambrose Vs. Baron Corbin Vs. The Miz(Elimination Chamber 2017) 2.John Cena Vs.

Andrade Cien Almas(Takeover WarGames 2017)
My fav memory of that Punjabi Prison match was when Jinder went out to cut a promo along the lines of, "The only rule of the Punjabi Prison match is THERE ARE NO RULES," before going on to list the various rules of the match type. But without any degree of self-awareness.
I felt during single brand PPVs 2016- March 2018. Both brands need more star power for the PPVs. The moment WWE gets more star power is the exact moment they ended the split branded PPVs.
@@rmoore2nd619 Lol you're mixing up when she won it for the 2nd time at Wrestlemania in 2017 which I agree was a filler match sadly. Her 1st title win came at the Elimination Chamber ppv in 2017 and he didn't even mention it
I was at that years Royal Rumble, I will never forget how deafening loud the crowd got boo'ing Roman and the pop Cena got for winning. I also remember Randy winning and everyone around was a mix of "oh thank god it wasn't Roman" and "Orton? Really? Orton?"
Elimination Chamber was also the first PPV to have 3 women's matches (even if one of them ended in a double countout, but we got the awesome Nikki/Nattie Falls Count Anywhere match later because of it).
A lot of people say Jinder Mahal returned to the company in phenomenal shape. I think that tells you just how much people don't pay attention to Jinder Mahal. He came back to the company in terrible shape
Royal Rumble was the best show of the year, give yer balls a tug!!! Short, Balanced Card, hidden gems in the Cruiserweight Title & Raw Women's Championship match... Owens vs. Reigns with Jericho above the ring as a sexy piñata... CENA VS. STYLES III
I think if we take Flair's record in WWE only, Edge has more title wins. I think it's not exact because WWE may not recognise title wins other promotions. Not like they do everytime.
You might agree with me on this one even if I still watch wwe 2017 was the last good year even if there was some bad ppv but in 2017 they pushed braun strowman the miz had one of his best year asuka was being kinda being pushed the tag team the division was alive not everyone was a jobber
8:29 that 4-Way tag was done properly, because 4 men (1 from each team) were legal! Rather than that weird rule where only 2 people are legal despite it being a Fatal FOUR way, and teams have to tag themselves in. Idk why they don't do it like that more often, it makes much more sense.
The year I officially dropped out of watching wrestling on a regular basis After the Goldberg Owens match I was furious. Im so interested in this industry and the sport, but that year my passion for weeklys was killed. I don't want to invested in characters busting their ass every week just for them to be squashed by a legend.
Also, JeriKO had a huge year and a HUGE break up with Owens as Universal champ only for them to end up fighting at Mania midway through the card for the.... US title.

The FastLane events usually be horrible like the 2017 one but that Charlotte and Bayley match was one of those underrated matches and was surely the best on the card
The list is pretty accurate. Except for number 1. I did not like Wrestlemania 33, only 3 good matches on the entire card does not a number 1 make for me. Although wasn't this the PPV Cultaholic attended (although I think they were still with WC at the time)? If that the case that's totally understandable. Watching it live with that atmosphere is always a joy, but watching from home the show was very below average. By no means an awful maina but one that I can easily forget.
As much as I love both the usos and new day from around that time, breezango should've been tag team champions, those fashion files segments were hilarious and they were over with the fans because of those segments and they should've had at least one reign with the tag team titles
Baron Corbin winning MITB was fine and he should've got a judge push after that. What was not fine was that they killed his push right afterwards. Lone Wolf Corbin should've been way more

I think “Great Balls of Fire” is super underrated. I really think it was bare minimum top 5
I think brand exclusive ppv's will be a lot better with the current roster
Smack down 2016/2017 was 3x better than the current smack down roster tho

I'm an Indian and yet didn't really appreciate Jinder Mahal as the top title holder.
2017, the year SmackDown went to shit - although it started the year well. Didn’t recover until 2018
I think we all knew smackdowm was going to lower it’s quality after the god-awful superstar shakeup.
Yea 2017 was an average year because it started off good but after the shake up it went to shit
Goldberg RUINED two great universal title reigns
we don't speak of the second one
This aint silverberg or bronzeberg... Fucking GOLLLLLLLDBERG!!! GOOLLLLLDBERG!!! 😤😤😤
Kevin Owens and Wyatt had no business being world champion. Goldberg did wrestling a favor even it was only for a month.

No lie I kind of miss brand exclusive ppvs it just sucks that wwe didn’t book a lot of good ones though the original draft and ppvs were better
Yeah and it doesn't help that when the draft does happen they still switch superstars from brand to brand

I would really love to see exclusive ppvs return as there more time for talent to shine on both brands!!
Watching you rank every PPV of a certain year is so much fun 🔥❤️❤️.Please rank 2013 PPVs next
Yes you are right Now khali playing outdoor games with his children and upload on his channel

According to Cultaholic, I went to the 2nd best Pay Per Views of both 2017 & 2018....I'll take it
I’m barely watching all the PPV ranks of the 10’s. The ones that I’ve attended have made it to the Top 5. So I’m good with that haha
really loving this series, makes me watch something new on the network
Royal Rumble 2017 was 10x better than WM 33
No
They should do this with every year that had at least one PPV per month.
The disrespect of saying Naomi's first WWE title win after 8 years was a "filler"...
Because it was. It was put between Brock/Goldberg and Taker/Roman. There were 6 people involved and it lasted less than 6 minutes.

Hearing Adam Pacittis voice day after day is the only thing keeping me going through this lockdown
Elimination Chamber was also the first PPV to have 3 women's matches (even if one of them ended in a double countout, but we got the awesome Nikki/Nattie Falls Count Anywhere match later because of it).
This was my first year watching WWE so this really is a throwback for me
That Shane McMahon/Braun Strowman line aged perfectly
I’m not going to lie, I completely forgot about wwe in 2017
The 2016 list is gonna be HARD to do. Most of the pay-per-views (except ‘Mania) were REALLY GOOD.
I was at WM and I just have to say the special effects for Wyatt vs Orrin didn’t look nearly as bad in person
Can't for wait the 2016 ppv list cause it is one of my favorite wwe year and wrestling in general
18:30 it was the raw women’s championship, this was when she became the first woman to ever win both raw and smackdown women’s titles.
Also I'm glad that Great Balls of Fire is getting the love it deserves
Elimination Chamber might have my vote for no. 1, number 2 at the least.
Alexa Bliss actually beat Bayley for the Raw Women’s Championship, not the Smackdown Women’s title
Imagine jinder vs brock at survivor series as wwe champ vs universal champ
20:05 YOU'RE TELLING ME WE'VE SEEN THIS SHIT ON PPV ALREADY
I actually remember at the time everyone saying battleground was worse than fastlane.
A lot of people say Jinder Mahal returned to the company in phenomenal shape. I think that tells you just how much people don't pay attention to Jinder Mahal. He came back to the company in terrible shape
Just to point out, Corbin, Roode, and Ziggler were fierce enemies but now they are like best friends

I’m personally offended that Battlegrounds was not the worst on this list.
I agree. That should've been number 1 as the worst ppv on the list
The saddest part is that that Battleground match was, by a very comfortable margin, the best Punjabi Prison match
Usos vs New Day in 2017 was a saving grace.

from worst to best
There’s only 1 Ppv that could be on the bottom of the list everyone still remembers how bad Fastlane 2017 was.
Still gonna say it, Jinder Mahal winning the WWE Championship is the greatest birthday present I've ever got.
I really liked The Usos vs The New Day at Hell in a cell 2017 that match was is a very underrated match in my opinion.
it's sad that i cannot even remember any of these but can remember matches from 2010
TLC 2017 was so fun in my opinion.
Lesnar vs Styles at Survivor Series was easily match of the night and one of the best of the year.
Also in Summerslam 2017 had The Uso’s vs the New Day on the preshow and that was a great match
That kurt angle tlc celebration u did got me🤣🤣

I love this series, I hope it goes on till 1985's 2 PPVs.
How about 1984? Hogans debut.
I popped for that rammstein mention. A future ppv punishment should be having to listen to their entire discography on full blast lol
Loving this series!
LOVE these videos
We can all agree on one thing: HHH RUINED Survivor Series!
2017 was...rough. Especially SmackDown after Mania 33. Such a drop off from it's post-brand split quality.
Petition to do ranking 2016 ppv’s because I believe that was the year of smackdown
Don't forget Chris Jericho was being help up like a Sexy Pinata MAAAAAAAN!
I also said that royal rumble,wrestlemania,summerslam and survivor series were both brands that can compete

Survivor series of last three years Were great i think. I enjoyed every pay per view of wwe so far and i will in the future no matter what happens.
I can’t help but imagine Jericho vs KO for the Universal Title would have been great for Mania
Extreme Rules should be a 3 hour homage to ECW. Simple enough guys.
8:30 it was the raw womens championship
Baron Corbin winning MITB was fine and he should've got a judge push after that. What was not fine was that they killed his push right afterwards. Lone Wolf Corbin should've been way more
1:55 y didnt u talk about Charlotte's PPV streak ending
I liked the brand exclusive PPV ... and love brand split ...annoys me when they don't keep to it... annoying got rid of exclusive PPV
Why is your '7' in '2017' in the title card an opposite 'F'?
Summerslam deserved to be higher on the list. BTW C'mon! No mention of the best match in the Usos and New day feud?
