Re: Why can't the women get an one hour for an Iron Woman match?
I think it's a time constraint in general, if they did a Men's one, that too would probably be 30 minutes as well these days. Plus they have a much heavier roster these days and Iron Man matches usually work when rosters are thinner for 60 minutes, but, if you still want to get everyone you need to get on the card without bloating up the PPV? 30 minutes is a done deal.
They're saving it for when Sasha and Charlotte inevitably main event WrestleMania. I hate to say it, but we're inching there by the day. The actual match will be closer to 30 minutes, though, because after every fall, they'll get a 2 minute cry break.
I wouldn't want to see 60 minutes. Crowds just aren't conditioned to see hour long matches these days and they'd shit all over it. Especially considering the frustration some have built over this match happening so many times. I just hope this ends it. If they know this is the last one I feel they will go all out. The 30 minute iron man match between Rude and Steamboat is what I see as the standard. If they can even get close to that I will be happy.
Unfortunately, it's WWE's fault because FOR YEARS they've consistently given us crappy 1-2 minute women's matches that most times don't qualify as a proper piss break. They've conditioned the fans to accept shitty women's matches and even men's matches that are sub-3 minutes. I can't see them making this interesting for the fan when we've seen so much over the last year.
Why would anyone want to watch a 60 minute wrestling match? It was boring when two of the greatest workers in history did it over 20 years ago, and it'll be a billion times worse with these two mediocre workers attempting it. These idiot fans today lose their minds when a 10 minute match has a rest spot. I can only imagine what a disaster this will be.
Just a fresh addition to this played out feud of phony bullshit.
No doubt if this were Becky's match you'd be foaming all over it. Just like you were damage controlling that boring overly long ass tables match.
An Iron-man match makes more sense story wise for this feud than any feud in recent memory, except perhaps Zayn/Owens.
This is funny because all the matches between Charlotte and Sasha and pay-per-views already have more than 20 minutes. They are only adding 8 minutes. ???????
The fact they're getting one at all is criminal. Most overhyped, overdone feud in modern WWE. All these accolades and special matches to the point where it's cheesy and not that entertaining. I'll more than likely be skipping the match. An hour would be the dumbest thing ever and make the match even worse.
60 mins is usually too long and 30 mins too.short. Bayley and Sasha felt rushed at 30 mins last year
The name ironman suggests a long and arduous task which 30 minutes isn't really
Honestly I would have given them.the 60 mins and finish the feud. Its not like anyone cares about this ppv or the jericho/rollins reigns/owens matches so let the girls just end it
Have you seen the Bayley-Sasha match Ironwoman? they were dying at the 25 minutes mark, no way they can handle 1hr, maybe Charlotte can, I dont know. But all the iron man matches drag a lot, and a 6th match in a series that has drag a couple of months that just makes it even worse
There are no 2 workers in the world who I'd like to see go 1-on-1 for an hour, regardless of gender. This isn't a sexism thing, it's a business evolution.
In kayfabe, it's UTTER NONSENSE. You just shoved the revolution down our throat and even said the words "iron man", and yet you're restricing your rule based on gender, which is CRAZY considering athletic women doing cardio for an hour isn't impossible.
In reality... i'm SUPERRRRRRR okay with it. I hate iron man matches and you're asking these ladies to fail if you put them in an hour match. 30 minutes is impressive enough.
