Wreslemania must be the big enchilada, and nothing comes close to it. Try and make it a huge event again. Have tons of celebs going to the event. Pay them if you have to. Hold the event in one of the major stadiums, and "paper the event(free tickets) if you have to just to fill the place up.

Turn Survivor Series back into what it used to be. A Thanksgiving tradition based on tag team elimination matches. **** title matches. Thats not what this series was about. I would also consider dropping this and bringing back Starrcade as the Thanksgiving event

They already market Wrestlemania like that and its one of the few things I think they do correctly.  I actually don't really like all the traditional tag team elimination matches.  However, I think adding the Iron Man Match or Gauntlet match isn't a bad idea.  Oh yeah, Vince would never let a WCW named event be one of his big money PPV.  I think if they really wanted some major buyrates they would make the elimination chamber the main centerpiece of one of the main PPV.  It's getting wasted on an in between PPV like NWO.

One of the main issues is that after a major ppv there is always a rematch at the next ppv and sometimes the rematch is better than the major ppv match.  It gives the public very little incentive to buy a major ppv when the rematch could just be better.  I just don't think the feuds mean as much when these guys are having matches all the time.  We've seen variations of HHH/Cena/Orton for the past six months and it gets tiring after a while.
