#4 Shorten The Kickoff Show

A no-brainer
A no-brainer

The kickoff show is a necessary evil as it gives fans the opportunity to see a few fringe matches, increase the build-up to the big show and hear from a few panel members that might have something interesting to say.

Alas, while that may be the case, we're pretty confident in saying that it doesn't need to be two hours long - not even close, in fact.

A one hour kickoff show feels like the perfect amount of time to build towards Mania and while some people may just skip this part altogether, a shorter kickoff show means you'll be forced to put an important match or two on it to really draw the fans in.

If you want to get specific about it, then 90 minutes would probably also suffice. Either way their aim should be to make it feel as special as the actual main show itself, regardless of how difficult that may seem, because the guys and girls on the kickoff card have still put in a lot of hard work to be there.
