5 Wrestling rumors we hope are true and 5 we hope aren't: WWE concerned with Reigns, Top SummerSlam match canceled?

#2 We hope isn't true: The reason behind the trainwreck match on RAW

Way too long

The latest episode of RAW was quite good, but one major problem with the show was the Women's Fatal-4-Way elimination match. The stipulation was to crown the new #1 contender to Becky Lynch's RAW Women's Championship and it was contested between Natalya, Naomi, Alexa Bliss, and Carmella.

The match, unfortunately, turned out to be quite a trainwreck, with the crowd chanting "This is boring" more often than not. The fact of the matter is that the match went on 15 minutes longer than it needed to go and despite Alexa Bliss calling the crowd "disrespectful", it really had nothing to do with fans' perception about the women wrestling.

With that being said, Bryan Alvarez stated that the reason behind the long match is because it took place in the same city that the WWE Evolution PPV happened last year, i.e, Long Island. We hope that isn't true because it's a rather stupid reason to have a disaster of a match.
