Updated List of WWE 2005 Pay Per Views

Archive

According to mailers sent out by DIRECTV, here is a listing of all of WWE 2005 PPVs, all taking place on Sundays:

[RAW] Jan.9th New Year’s Revolution

[WWE] Jan. 30th Royal Rumble

[SD] Feb. 20th No Way Out

[WWE] April 3rd WrestleMania 21

[RAW] May 1st Backlash

[SD] May 22nd Judgment Day

[RAW] June 12th Bad Blood

[SD] June 26th The Great American Bash

[RAW] July 24th Vengeance

[WWE] August 21st Summerslam

[SD] September 18th Unforgiven

[RAW] October 9th No Mercy

[SD] October 30th Untitled pay-per-view event (Ed. Note: perhaps Halloween Havoc?)

[WWE] November 27th Survivor Series

[RAW] December 18th Armageddon

This includes 6 RAW events, 5 SD events, and 4 WWE-wide events. It should be noted that WWE.com only lists PPV events through The Great American Bash.

Ed. Note: Assuming they don’t add any additional PPVs in the near future, it would make sense that New Year’s Revolution is a one-time, trial-basis event to make up for Wrestlemania’s later-than-usual scheduling. If NYR is removed in 2006, they’d go back to alternating RAW and SD only events when there aren’t “Big Four” shows being held; if it is very successful, they could then justify adding a 16th event in 2006. Either way, though, if this schedule holds, it looks a lot more planned out and “even” than the 2004 schedule that at times had multiple RAW-only or SD-only events that were seemingly “out of order” and with difficult-to-plan timing.
