From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cyber Sunday is an annual professional wrestling pay-per-view event produced by World Wrestling Entertainment. The event was known as Taboo Tuesday in 2004 and 2005. From 2004 to 2006, the event was exclusive to the RAW brand.

When it was known as Taboo Tuesday, it was the first pay-per-view held by WWE on a Tuesday since Tuesday in Texas in 1991. Although the inaugural event was held in October 2004, the 2005 event was pushed back to early November so as to prevent possible competition from a Major League Baseball playoff game. Another inconvenience was the fact that the pay-per-view was held on a Tuesday, the night when SmackDown! shows are taped. This forced SmackDown! shows of that week to either be taped on Sunday nights or shown live. These series of problems were what ultimately led to the event being renamed Cyber Sunday and held on a Sunday night.

The distinctive feature of Cyber Sunday is the ability for fans to vote online through WWE.com on certain aspects of the show. The voting typically begins in the middle of a RAW show weeks beforehand and ends during the pay-per-view, often moments before the match is slated to begin. Each match on the Cyber Sunday card has one aspect up for voting, which may range from the opponents a certain wrestler may partner up with or go against, or may involve some of the match's stipulations. Because of this, Cyber Sunday is billed as an "interactive pay-per view".
