The World Wrestling Entertainment monthly hold an annual pay-per-view event. One event is usually three to four hours long and feature between seven to ten matches. Pay-per-view events are a big part of the revenue stream for WWE. Along with World Wrestling Entertainment, other professional wrestling organizations hold monthly pay-per-views as well, such as Total Nonstop Action.
Traditionally, World Wrestling Entertainment has a once-a-month pay-per-view schedule, which they had from the late '90s until 2003 totalling to twelve a year. But as of late, they are beginning to produce more pay-per-view events, which totals to approximately fourteen or more.
¹ While WrestleMania is traditionally held in March, and Backlash in April, this year (2005) they are being held in April and May, respectively. At this point, it is unclear whether this is an anomaly or a permanent change in scheduling.
² This PPV has had nothing about it officially announced, with the exception of the date; however, speculation is rampant that it will be an Extreme Championship Wrestling reunion show. This speculation has been furthered by WWE recently trademarking the name ECW One Night Only.
Note: These pay-per-view events could switch from their respective brands to the opposite brand (ex: Armageddon 2003 was a RAW exclusive event but Armageddon 2004 was a SmackDown! exclusive event). Royal Rumble, WrestleMania, SummerSlam and Survivor Series are joint productions of both RAW and SmackDown! These events could also change dates making them occur in a different month.
