and I guess their TV matches
but why the hell were they so incredibly long...Holy cow
I watched Starrcade and It took me like 4 hours just to fastforward through an entire Norman Smiley match which consisted of him laying on the mat doing certain submission moves. Boring.

If you watched them back when they aired for the first time you probably wouldn't feel the same way. Back then they actually took the time to build the match and try to tell a story.

well, the average match on tv only lasted like 7-9 minutes as for their ppv matches, i have no clue. maybe being bored can make things seem a lot longer.

I personally miss that about wrestling. Matches used to last longer but the three count at the end was a lot more satisfying.

hm, I think matches in WWF back in 1998-1999 were really long. Todays matches are decent length too.

I usually watch them on Youtube, anybody heard of iCON?
Anyways, yeah the PPV matches were long, but when Nitro and Thunder came around the matches [between mid carders or upper mid-carders] they were like five minutes long
