BY THE NUMBERS 688

It is with a heavy heart that I have to announce that two of our shows have moved on to the world of retired shows. AEW Dark and AEW Dark Elevation will no longer air. Should they come back, they will return to the column. This is also the final week for MLW Underground, until we get a Season Two. Fear not MLW fans, MLW Fusion will return in three weeks.

This week’s episode of Ring of Honor was 90 minutes, Main Event was 45 minutes.

When looking at the matches, if there is a [c] next to the match, that means that the show went to commercial during the matches. All times are rounded to the nearest minute so if a match is 4 minutes 29 seconds, it will be listed as 4 minutes. If a match is 5 minutes 41 seconds, it will be listed as 6 minutes. All times are based on my timing while watching the shows and should not be considered as the definitive totals.
