Cyber Sunday is the only current PPV event to carry around the legacy of another named event. In 2004, RAW held their first Taboo Tuesday event. This event was special for two reasons. The most important thing was that this was the first event in history where the fans voted on an aspect of every single match. The second thing was that the event was held on a Tuesday night which was special because almost every WWE PPV event for over a decade has been held on a Sunday. After two years, the event was moved to Sunday. Since the name had to change sue to the day of the week changing, the event was re-branded as Cyber Sunday. Even though the name has changed, the fans will still get to vote on an aspect of every match. In the history section of the event, every bolded item represents the winning vote of the fans. Starting in 2007, the event was no longer exclusive to RAW. In 2008, many of the votes were moved from the web to text messaging where the voting was limited to US fans that were willing to pay $.99 to vote.
