According to a story from the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, WWE ppv events may be extending past 11 pm. The report states that WWE has told Sky Italia to begin reserving extra time for ppv events as the duration of those shows will vary.
As we all know, this happened with WrestleMania this year and not a lot of people gave it a warm reception. When you add up the kickoff show with the main card itself and the post show thing together, it was damn near 8 hours and it was just too damn much. Of course, it didn't exactly help things when you consider the Rock had an in-ring segment that ran for well over 30 minutes itself towards the end of the night when the crowd was getting tired and a lot of the booking for the matches was questionable. At the same time, depending upon the event and what sort of matches are on the card, having more time could be beneficial.
There weren't any real details given in the report and if it's legit, it sounds like the ppv length will be on a show by show basis.
