WWE PPVs: 10 best pay per view events

#7 King of the Ring

Originally considered as one of the Big Five events of the year, The King of the Ring came to be recognized as an official PPV event in year 1993 before which it was held as a single-elimination tournament since 1985.

The format involved sixteen wrestlers battling it out in a one-on-one single elimination bracket. Final few remaining matches would be held at the event until the eventual winner was crowned. The PPV continued until 2002 before it was discontinued only to be revived until recently in 2008, 2010 and 2015.

Perhaps, the greatest revolutionary speech that turned WWE's landscape completely came in the 1996 King of the Ring when Stone Cold delivered a stunning victory speech that is credited to have kicked off the Attitude Era of the WWE.

"Talk about your psalms, talk about John 3:16. Austin 3:16 says I just whooped your a**!"

And then, Austin 3:16 was born which undeniably became one of the greatest catchphrases in WWE history.
