Raw and smackdown moving to 3 hours in 2025

[hostsamurai]

Guess that means Bloodline stays on Smackdown.

 

[TOAD99]

I mean there’s a lot of talent

Raw was pretty damn good when it was three hours. Lots of people were being highlighted that are no longer on it weekly

 

[Metal Face]

at least you dont have to watch RAW live and can skim thru it on Netflix now

SmackDown however

 

[Bryan Danielson]

I wouldn’t be mad at it. It’s not 2010, they’re killin shyt and everyone is over

[Redwood]

hell naw. Three hour RAW has always been a chore to get through to me.

They haven't learned from Nitro in '98

 

[Lurk Angle]

Thats why I just keep up with highlights
Can't sit through HHH booking for 3 hours

There were a handful of segments last night alone that nobody cared about..... including most of the tag division and some of the women. They ain't deep enough to do 6 hours a week unless they completely ruin NXT in the process.

Okay you can point out one random Smackdown (that was actually really good) but let’s look at a few.
Punk
Seth
Styles
Shinsuke
Gunther
Drew
Jay
Jimmy
Roman
Cody

That’s excluding nxt ppl…. Yes you’ll have your pretty deadlys and your studline that they’re trying to develop. Some people injured that you forget about or taking time off. but I’ve been watching this shyt for a long time and it ain’t ever been like this

 

[In The Zone '98]

I'm here for the segments

That's why too much wrestling

I'm really curious how a 3 hour netflix show is going to look. Especially as a person that only sees commercials when I watch cable. If they give us some really good vignettes and shyt. I won't even notice. Assuming the show is just flowing. But, I expect a lot of bullshyt. Like here's "ads" without being ads.

Smackdown needs some more talent for sure, but again if they are focusing on building up shyt and doing old school promos/vignettes and such. Then those three hours will probably also fly by. Especially with the cable inserted ads.
