Smackdown finished second and it should join Raw over four thousand minutes. Impact finished third for the week and passed thirty-seven hundred minutes of wrestling. NXT finished fourth for the week followed by Ring of Honor, Main Event, and Superstars finished in last place one more time.
In a minor milestone, this week saw the one hundredth episode of Ring of Honor television since I started this column. If Ring of Honor maintained its average per hour and aired for each of the one hundred forty-four weeks, the would have three thousand four hundred thirteen minutes of wrestling, which would have put the show solidly in fourth place and only a little more than three hundred minutes behind Impact.
The time for the Orton/Del Rio match on Raw includes the time between falls while the individual falls are from bell to bell.
This column does not include the matches from WWE's Saturday Morning Slam show.
The wrestling times below cover the wrestling that takes place during the show so commercials are not included. All times are rounded to the closest minute (examples: a 4:23 match will be listed as 4 minutes while a 4:32 match will be listed as 5 minutes and anything under a minute is rounded up to a minute).
