Should go without saying this one, but the actual highlight for many WWE fans is actually the night after the grandest grandaddy of the grandads. Basically the world's hardcore wrestling fans arrive for WrestleMania, and then turn a typically mixed TV audience into a definitive and explosive crowd.

As such WWE usually holds a few special treats back for them. Debuts, call-ups, and returns are all normally on the menu, and there’s often a shock title change or storyline in the works in the fallout to WrestleMania.

Of course, putting WWE events on this list is a bit redundant. NXT TakeOver will be one of the greatest wrestling shows of the year full stop, the Hall of Fame will be exactly what you expect it to be, and things like Axxess serve an important purpose for the weekend. But Raw is different, and there’s nothing else like it.
