World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) shows are a rage amongst wrestling fans across the globe. Their weekly shows – Monday Night RAW, SmackDown LIVE, and WWE NXT are the most viewed programmes amongst the much-loved events on offer. The WWE shows are available for the fans on WWE Network.
In India, the company enjoys a huge fan base. With yesteryear legends Triple H, The Rock, Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels still their favourites, newbies like Daniel Bryan, Finn Balor, Rusev, Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins, and AJ Styles have carved out their own niche in recent times.
John Cena, being one of the most loved and hated WWE wrestler, still manages to draw huge crowds at WWE’s Pay-per-view events. Talking about PPVs, Wrestlemania is The Show of Shows and is the most-viewed event in the calendar year.
Other PPVs that are most-sought after are Royal Rumble, SummerSlam and Survivor Series. There have been quite a few PPVs that have already taken place this year. We, at LatestLY, bring to you a list of all the WWE PPVs that will take place in the 2018-19 season.

A lot of PPVs are many-a-times are a single-brand exclusive event, i.e. Monday Night RAW or SmackDown LIVE. The WWE has also tweaked a lot of PPVs over the years. With some events being withdrawn and some introduced, the company has always managed to spring up surprises throughout the year.
Over the years, the company has restricted matches with fancy stipulations for PPVs only. However, with a lot of PPVs already announced and some left to be announced, WWE fans are in a treat to watch their favourite superstars compete against each other all around the year!
