With the conclusion of Clash of Champions this past Sunday, the 2017 pay-per-view schedule for the WWE has come to an end after a mixed bag of success and failure.

The WWE had 16 main roster pay-per-views in 2017 and while some just weren’t very good, there are several that really stand out.  With two separate brands, it becomes even harder for the WWE to produce pay-per-views.

But both Raw and SmackDown had some stellar events in 2017 that featured great matches and moments.  With that being said, let’s take a look at every WWE main roster pay-per-view in 2017 ranked from worst to best.

16. Battleground

The SmackDown-exclusive pay-per-view Battleground was an event not many knew what to expect from it.  There really weren’t any standout matches unless you count the return of a seldom-used match type in the show’s main event.

There were really only a small handful of matches that saved this pay-per-view from being a total disaster.  The New Day and The Usos had a stellar match in the middle of their awesome tag team title feud and most would agree it was the match of the night at Battleground.

Kevin Owens and AJ Styles’ battle for the United States Championship was stellar, although it wasn’t their best match in 2017.  But for Battleground, it was a marquee match.  Rusev and John Cena had a predictable Flag Match, but it was good enough to not be considered a complete failure.  However, weaker matches such as Shinsuke Nakamura vs. Baron Corbin, Sami Zayn vs. Mike Kanellis, and the main event really brought the show down.

The Punjabi Prison match between Jinder Mahal and Randy Orton was far from stellar and is viewed as a colossal failure by most.  While it had its moments, albeit a slim amount, it just didn’t deliver the way it needed to do.  And that helps sum up the entire Battleground 2017 pay-per-view.

Battleground failed to impress and it ranks as the worst pay-per-view in the WWE in 2017.
