WrestleMania's colossal length is an annual complaint, but a justified one.

While it's an oft-repeated point made a thousand times over, 'The Showcase of the Immortal' is too often a bloated affair that drains enthusiasm across seven-to-eight gruelling hours, as audiences expend their energy on early peaks, leaving little for what comes later. It's hard not to feel the burn even when watching at home.

This year, however, it won't be an issue. If you skip the Kickoff Shows (each is an hour in length), you're currently looking at three hours and fifteen minutes on Saturday and similar the next day. That's a lot more manageable. Viewers should be able to stay active, engaged, and alive with a full day's rest in between thanks to this more watchable format.

Burnout should be impossible and the layout gives WWE the chance to host two true main events, meaning a touch of extra shine for the chosen performers. There's a lot to love about the two-nighter.

Could this become a regular occurrence or is "Too Big for One Night!" a short-term trademark? We'll see how these shows are met, though the potential is there.
