One can safely assume, based on the ever-increasing frequency of marquee World Wrestling Entertainment events, that the sports-entertainment company is holding some sort of pay-per-view event this evening.

Given that WWE has been steadily adding new events to its annual pay-per-view schedule, it stands to reason that wrestling fans should tune-in to the WWE Network right now to watch Extreme Chamber or Elimination Series or The Great American Backlash or something.

“Isn’t tonight Unforgiven or Vengeance or something?” wrote veteran wrestling journalist Dave Meltzer, who has long-since given up trying to keep track of the events.

“Is this the second Wednesday of the month during a leap year??” he continued. “If so, does that make it a Smackdown-branded In Your House? No, wait, tonight is NXT TaKEoveR Re:EvoluSHUN or something. Christ, I don’t know.”

In order to avoid confusion, WWE executives are reportedly considering adopting a numbered pay-per-view system, though some fans worry it might cause confusion with UFC, which recently hosted its UFC 183,746 event.
