9 Things SummerSlam Must Do To Eclipse NXT Brooklyn
9. Cut Some Matches
One of the best things about NXT is that its Takeover specials, much like its weekly TV show, are far shorter than anything we see on the main roster.
That means that rather than seeing a three-plus-hour event, peppered with moments of filler, we get a jam-packed evening lasting closer to the two-and-a-half-hour mark, which is massively more digestible and enjoyable to sit through.
And in the case of an event like SummerSlam, we’re likely going to be given a four-hour main show, as well as a two-hour pre-show to take in beforehand. Irrespective of how stacked the card is, that’s an awful lot of action to sit through.
If the company wants to deliver a show as exciting and watchable as NXT Brooklyn, they might want to think about consolidating its length. The easiest way to do that, though it’s far from ideal, would be to cut down on the bordering-on-ridiculous 13 matches that are currently slated for the evening.
