Best and Worst of SummerSlam

#1 Worst: Length of the show

As good as the show was, it was absolutely exhausting — As good as the show eventually was, it was absolutely exhausting

A lot of us, myself included, absolutely love the art form known as professional wrestling. Therefore, we will soldier though a show that's almost 6 hours long. I wonder how many casual fans will, to be honest. Even I, with all my love for wrestling, found myself exhausted at the conclusion of this grand event.

Wow Summerslam is 6 hours long Jesus Christ talk about oversaturation I’m seriously considering not watching this show because of how long it is

I wasn't exhausted after TakeOver, the night before, honestly. In fact, I could have taken an additional hour of sports entertainment, because it was the perfect length!
