WWE names the 15 greatest pay-per-view events of all time

Well, this should be a relatively easy list to figure out before ever looking at ... right?

We here at CagesideSeats.com absolutely adore WWE.com for its rich content, from kayfabe interviews like the one featured on the front page today with Triple H to the various countdown style lists we just can't seem to get enough of.

Today's hard work? The 15 greatest pay-per-view (PPV) events of all time. This should be fun.
