9. Each Traditional Bout Goes 30+ Minutes

It's either that or they stretch everything out to fill time.

Being brutally honest, neither traditional elimination bout is really worth much this year. WWE didn't bother to reveal the squads until recently, and they still haven't fleshed them out fully at time of writing. That's poor planning, and it shows how utterly apathetic everyone is to this show behind the scenes.

Both the male and female matches will likely go anywhere between 20-30 minutes, but the worry here is that they go beyond that to 30+. That'd suck, not least because they're one of the least-exciting things about this entire pay-per-view.

That's shocking when they're supposed to be the main hook. Survivor Series is where it is in WWE circles though, and they've got nobody to blame but themselves. Now, management just hopes the talent/star power involved is good enough to make any of this even mildly entertaining.

That'll be a struggle if they're going long.
