WWE Night of Champions is a series of professional wrestling pay-per-view (PPV) and livestreaming shows run by WWE.
The first Night of Champions event held in 2007 was named Vengeance: Night of Champions and was also a part of the Vengeance series.[1] All nine WWE championships were defended that night. In 2008, the event was renamed to Night of Champions, keeping the format of the 2007 event, but dropping the Vengeance name.[2] In 2009, the event was moved back to July. From 2010 to 2015, it was held in September. In 2016, it was replaced by Clash of Champions, before returning in May 2023 as WWE's ninth event in Saudi Arabia.
