Figured this would be a fun thing to discuss...

Last year, only 1 match was over 20 minutes (HHH/Taker). They still had to take Sheamus/Bryan off the card, bury the Corre, and have one other under 5 minute match on the card to fit everything in. Granted, they don't have a bunch of Rock segments but should have plenty of ridiculous filler garbage throughout the show.

This year, we can expect 3 matches to go over 20 minutes. Entrances should get 30 minutes combined at least, so will there be another 'Mania squash? Will one of the other matches will be turned into a dark match?

I think the divas tag match will be short, Kane/Orton will be a 6 or 7 minute match, and possibly Rhodes/Show.

Maybe it's just wishful thinking, because I really want the 4 matches that everyone cares about to be given enough time to do what they need to do.

This.

Though I wouldn't be surprised at all if the best feud of the night (Y2J vs Punk) is given like 10 minutes.

I hope Jericho and Punk gets the longest match, even longer than Rock vs. Cena.

Sounds stupid but if they would have hyped up this match a lot more for the past few weeks everyone would have been more pumped up for it than Rock vs. Cena match.

For me this is what each match should be given:

Rock/Cena- 18 minutes
Taker/HHH- 20 minutes
Jericho/Punk- 26 minutes
Sheamus/Bryan- 14 minutes (I'd like to see more, just trying to stay a bit realistic)
12 man tag fuck- 8 minutes
Orton Kane- 7 minutes
Rhodes/Show- 6 minutes
Divas tag- 3 minutes

That's 102 minutes of wrestling in a 240 minute show, so I'm probably asking too much from WWE. They still have entrances, be a star promos, corny backstage segments, and other BS to fit in

I'm convinced they're going to make HHH/Taker too long and the matches we massively want will be to short as it's #wwelogic

There match last year was a fucking half hour long, and 15 minutes of it was probably them laying around trying to catch their breath.

Thats exactly what I've said in another thread you've got ages of them both getting into the ring and at least ten mins of them lying on the floor! LOLS

Not to mention it will take 15 minutes for HHH/HBK/& Taker to all make their entrances
