WWE PPV Name Dropped

Quote :

-- WWE ring announcer Justin Roberts announced during a commercial break at this week's RAW taping at the AT&T Center in San Antonio, Texas that a pay-per-view event, WWE Uprising, would be taking place at the venue on October 23. The event was originally titled Bragging Rights.

Better than Bragging Rights. Not by much however.

I liked the idea of Bragging Rights but the brands are so similar and diluted anyway that there's no reason to have it.

Bragging Rights was only ever there to promote the Smackdown Vs Raw games anyway. They'd play on the interbrand rivalry for anout 2 weeks, and then abandon it as soon as it was done.

remember a while ago they said uprising was one of a few ideas for ppv names. Sounds more like a classic name from a few years back rather than the shit one offs they started up

Glad really as Bragging Rights was nothing more than a PPV to make Smackdown look good... infact in big Smackdown vs Raw team battles has Raw ever won?

I like the name Uprising although i'm sure UFC had a PPV called Uprising (might just randomily google UFC Uprising to see if I didn't imagine it).

EDIT: Just checked and there was a UFC 68: Uprising... mind you back before they subtitled the PPVs with the mainevent match (ie; UFC 100: Lesner vs Coture) they must have came up with so many subtitles that WWE has also used as PPV names.

The AT&T% Center website lists WWE's October 23rd Pay-Per-View as "Vengeance." The PPV name was changed from "Bragging Rights" to "Uprising" earlier this month.

Vengeance was the Pay-Per-View that eventually became "Night of Champions" in 2007.
