I have been thinking about this for a long time. Since there is obviously a lot of support among fans for a return to an attitude era type or at least a TV-14 oriented product, what if WWE produced a PPV each year specifically aimed at this audience?
They are heavily marketing themed PPV's as of recent years with shows such as Hell in a Cell, Elimination Chamber, Money in the Bank, etc. Even when they were TV-14 they produced a more mature PPV which was ECW One Night Stand. That show garnered a TV-MA rating. It's entire selling point was extreme violence.
I think it would be awesome if they could do just ONE PPV per year aimed at this theme(TV-14 not TV-MA, although would be awesome!). Perhaps it could be Extreme Rules since the basis of that show is no-DQ type matches. Or maybe it's a whole new one. Just have one show that is TV-14 and allows them to get a bit edgier and violent for one night. I would love to be able to see Dean Ambrose let loose. His character screams to be in an edgier environment.
The WWE Network has parental controls to block content based on rating. I really think it could work if marketed correctly. Any thoughts?
EDIT: I think I should have titled this thread "Edgier Themed PPV". Thinking about it now, Mature seems a little misleading considering there is such a thing as a TV-MA rating.
