WWE has organized several pay-per-view events in its history. Some of them have been remarkable, while others fell short of leaving an impact on the WWE Universe, which led to their retirement. Now, it looks like WWE is once again trying to bring the special pay-per-view, as per some recent rumors and speculations.

WWE has already done their tapings for SmackDown next week. During the show, a special edition of SmackDown was announced called New Year’s Revolution. The special episode of The Blue Brand will be scheduled in the first week of 2024. The New Year’s Revolution was a pay-per-view held by WWE during their Ruthless Aggression Era.
