WWE Armageddon
WWE Armageddon is a pay-per-view event that began in December of 1999, and followed the Survivor Series pay-per-view in November. Following the brand extension, Armageddon became an exclusive event for either RAW or SmackDown!, allowing any feuds stemming from Survivor Series to be finished. The only year that Armageddon has not been held was in 2001, when it was determined that the pay-per-view name should not be used due to the events of September 11, 2001 and the subsequent activities in Afghanistan; WWE Vengeance was shown in its place for that year only.
