#2. WWE should not bring back Bra and Panties matches

The Bra and Panties match is one of the most entertaining WWE gimmick matches in the Ruthless Aggression and Attitude Era. However, it is often seen as only an eye candy match made to please WWE's young male viewers.

Arguably the most infamous Bra and Panties match was the one between WWE Lita and Trish Stratus for the Women's Championship way back in October 2002.

Despite the match type's popularity to the male audience, it is a gimmick match that has one of the least chances to be seen again by the WWE fans especially in the post-Women's Evolution era.

#1. WWE should bring back the Championship Scramble

In 2008, Unforgiven hosted the first-ever set of Championship Scramble matches wherein two superstars begin the match and every five minutes, the next participant enters.

The superstar who scores the last pinfall or submission after the last participant enters the match, wins.

In previous years, WWE preferred simpler non-elimination gimmick matches such as the Six Pack Challenge.

However, Championship Scramble still delivers a unique action-packed experience that adds more value to any WWE title. Plus, the format of the match is friendly to any WWE era, may it be Reality or PG.
