Problem is it doesn't make sense money wise to drop the shows.

As Slashfro said Wrestlemania IS billed as the event and they do drag the celebs in for it.  The problem is the other traditional events sometimes get lost in the mix.

I'd never do away with Survivor Series and I agree, the whole event sans maybe one match should be in the elimination format.

King of the Ring has been used as a television event, twice since it stopped being a PPV, once over a few weeks on Smackdown and once as a 3 Hour Raw Special, the Smackdown one worked well, the other not so, I do like the idea of using 3 brands for it, I've been calling for that for ages.

Summerslam from what I gathered from old events was often about finishing off the feud from Wrestlemania before they'd move forward later in the year for the next Mania feuds.
