10 Dumbest WWE PPV Names Ever

4. Capitol Punishment

What's more ridiculous: a politics-themed WWE PPV called Capitol Punishment or the fact that it was headlined by R-Truth challenging John Cena for the WWE Championship?

2011 was a strange one.

The show's marketing heavily revolved around Barack Obama to the point that WWE had to issue a disclaimer insisting he had no link to the show...before hiring an Obama impersonator to appear at the event.

In pure name terms, though, it's goofy as hell and feels like a throwback to something from decades prior (WCW's infamous 1990 PPV Capital Combat: Return of RoboCop, perhaps?).

Plus, linking a product ostensibly aimed at children to the death penalty is a bit of a PR misstep in this century.
