A title run gets too long when someone simply runs out of decent opponents or stops drawing money. How about the weirder thought of someone having a ridiculously long secondary title run though? Honky Tonk Man probably shouldn't have had the IC title as long as he did. That was a case though where it was played perfectly in that Warrior gave him no opportunity to slow it down or cheat....he just crushed HTM in 20 seconds, haha.
Another curious secondary run was Rob Van Dam with the ECW TV title lasting nearly 2 years. To me, he should have just lost to Jerry Lynn at some point late in 1999 and moved on to face Taz for the ECW World title. As it turned out, RVD got hurt in March 2000, was stripped of the title, and no one really got any sort of heat for beating him (he didn't even move on to the world title either).
