The argument that WWE need to revert back to a 2-hour format for their flagship show, Monday Night Raw, has been debated ever since the company decided that the broadcast should be 3 hours long each week in 2012. At first, the creative team seemed to struggle with the extra hour, but to their credit, the writers have started to make Raw a much more even program from start to finish. Even so, several lengthy matches are booked to fill up time, and there's often little to differentiate Raw with Pay-Per-Views, certainly a lot of the 'B' level supercards. Traditionally, the monthly specials felt bigger than the regular TV shows, not only because they were longer, but also due to the matches which took place on them. It's not uncommon for WWE to repeat book matches for PPV which have already taken place on television, sometimes only a few weeks prior to the event. Worse yet, there are times when Raw-like in-ring segments take up time on Pay-Per-View, making it hard to view these shows as special or extraordinary.
