Best Sets Ever?
By Scott Keith on 16 August 2016
Given how much we complained about WWE not changing up its sets for a while, I have a good question for you. What are the best sets for a wrestling show you’ve seen? One category being TV(even though Smackdown’s Fist stage is probably the winner/runner-up) and the other being PPV sets.
I really loved the WWE Old School set from that RAW show years ago. It was such a breath of fresh air. The original RAW is WAR layout was badass as well, before the Titantron overwhelmed the entire stage area by itself. And of course, the Smackdown fist.
WWE used to be great at PPV sets, especially stuff like the swinging hooks of Backlash or the car wreck set of Over the Edge 98 with Foley and Austin. I also really enjoyed stuff like the Night of Champions sets where they’d have all the champions represented with huge screens. Or the Royal Rumble show in 2006 with the Roman column layout. And hey, show quality aside, the Caesar’s Palace theme at WM9 was an amazing visual.
