WWE: Too Many PPVs?

The old adage that less is more certainly applies to WWE pay-per-views – the fewer there are, the better they seem to be. At the moment, however, Vince McMahon does not agree. While he has been talked into reducing the 2010 PPV number to 13, that still leaves at least one Sunday-night spectacular a month […]
