You'll notice that the traditional set up dissappeared once the WWF started doing monthly PPV's and doing increased weekly programming. My guess is that it just takes too long to book several 5 man elimination matches and do it well. Elimination mayches require very careful booking because so much story is told in the ring. If its not done right, the match will come off very flat. I imagine they just don't have the time to book a PPV like that anymore. Its a shame really.
I want the WWE to go back to 4 PPV's a year (Sur Ser, RR, WM and Sum Slam). This will put more actiuon in the weekly TV shows and put more importance back into the PPV's.
My 2 cents
