WWE is one of the oldest wrestling promotions in the world which has established itself as the best wrestling promotion in the whole through lots of ups and downs previously. The promotion also has some really long running shows that has created history throughout the years.
One of the longest running WWE shows is WrestleMania which is also the best wrestling show on earth today. Apart from WrestleMania, there are other big shows like Royal Rumble, Summerslam, and Survivor Series. All of these WWE shows are going on since the 80s and these are definitely the best shows of wrestling.
Breaking News: Long Running WWE Show May Get Retired
There is another WWE show that has been going on for more than two decades and that is WWE Tribute to The Troops. WWE organizes it to show their gratitude towards their troops. The show has been going on since 2003, and they host it every December.
But for the first time in 22 years, WWE did not organize Tribute to The Troops this year. Wrestling pundit Dave Meltzer reported on his Wrestling Observer Radio that the future of this show is now quite uncertain. Here is what Dave Meltzer had to say;
WWE Show Tribute to The Troops Had Been Organized Every Year Since 2003
“No more. It’s done. Obviously, the year being up, I think in the last month people [were] kind of asking when they’re taping it. It just was not being taped. They had too many other things going on. I don’t know if it’s done for good, but this is the first year that they haven’t done anything with that.
Tribute to The Troop which is a WWE Show Was Not Organized For The First Time in 2024 Since 2003
“I think that in 2019 I believe they didn’t do a television show, but they still did events and they still taped stuff. But this year, nothing. It was a Vince McMahon thing, and it’s not Vince’s company anymore. It’s not something that you’re going to advertise [that] we’re not doing this anymore, but it quietly went away this year.”
Previously, WWE cancelled some top shows which sparked major backlash among the fans. One such event was WWE King of The Ring which Vince McMahon decided to retire in 2002. Triple H brought it back in 2024 after 22 years in the form of WWE King & Queen of The Ring. So fans should not lose hope that the traditional Tribute to the Troops show gets canceled forever.
