How do you guys feel about Raw going to two hours? Do you believe it will have any implications for things outside of the main event scene?

Could this be a hindrance for things such as the midcard, more cinematic type things (such as the Wyatt Sick6), or non-title scenarios such as Braun and Bronson?

  • Has it been confirmed yet that its 2h after going to Netflix? I recall the news saying it was 2h at least for these next 2 months until they get to Netflix but I remember confusion about what happens beyond that.

    Assuming it's just for the next 2mo not much will really happen long term, just a match and promo or two less per show (give or take) and once on Netflix shit goes back to at-least-normal. Women will probably take a hit as per the norm.

    If it extends beyond the Netflix debut..oof.

    • It has not. I assume it will be back to 3 hours, but I haven't considered commercials, or a lack thereof on Netflix. Will they do a full 3 hours if there are no advertisements?

      I don't do well with change, so losing an hour even for a couple of months has me worried. After watching SmackDown last night I'm put a little more at ease. They get a lot done on Fridays

      • I can't remember if this was stated as fact or speculation, but I heard Raw won't be locked to three hours on Netflix since they don't have to worry about the show that's on after.

        Also, Netflix has a plan that has commercials now so Raw will probably just have ads for WWE merch or whatever they do for PLEs on Peacock.

        • This makes the most sense. Peacock has similar. If you pay for premium you get promo packages and merch when they play ads
