9:06 - Theory comes out 9:24 - Theory/Moss starts
That has to be close to the record.

Well when Madcap Moss is in action, you have to add suspense and put people on the edge of their seat waiting to see Madcap Moss wrestle

WWE's pacing is getting really goddamn bad. Did they lay off any of the producers who knew better?

I don't watch WWE regularly anymore, but whenever I do and they pull this, it makes me turn off. It was bad enough when it was just entrance-ad-match, but now that they're adding in promos and everything else, it's unbearable.

In the time spent between entrance and match, you could listen to the entirety of Yes's 1972 prog rock epic Close to the Edge, which has a more satisfying build-up and payoff than most WWE programming.

I got all 7 chaos emeralds on Sonic 2 in that time, & had way more fun than watching WWE to boot.

I went to do something else for a bit after Theory's entrance started, came back and the match still hadn't started, I was so confused.

I think Liv waited something like 25 minutes about a month ago for her match to start. Or at ieast it felt like it.

I bow before you….I think this is the first time in FAN history that anyone has ever referenced Yes’s prog classic.

We're a board of well rounded people.

I listen to Cornette’s podcast where they pointed it out to me first, and they’ve been doing this for a hot minute. Somebody will come out before the commercial break, we come back and they’re in the ring..then we get an ad or a backstage segment..then another commercial. Then a promo or something for next week..then ANOTHER commercial, and then finally we get the second entrance after like 20 minutes. It’s f***ing weird and time paddy as hell.

I don't remember how long it took for Liv Morgan vs Rhea Ripley to happen on RAW, but I distinctly remember Liv came out, commercial, promo, then like a whole vignette about America, then Rhea's entrance, and I am pretty sure they did ANOTHER commercial
Their time management and card structure is so dire these days. All the people they have they can use for literally anything and it looks like they struggle so badly to make a card, and even when they do, it's all recycled matches, no effort at all.

As a TV viewer, I like the flow better the way it is now but I can see how that would be annoying for those in the crowd.

I remember some tv exec or something was at the Garden for The War to Settle the Score on MTV and they were panicking that they had less than an hour left in the show but still had a couple matches before Hogan/Piper and all the WWF people were like “Relax, everything is running right on time. We’ll be done right at 10.” and the exec was shocked that they hit every time marker they had written down and ended right on time.
So they CAN do it, but like most things they just don’t give a shit any more.
