It has been a while since we had a show with a double digit total for matches, but unlike the usual suspect of Raw, it was Dark. Even though the longest match of the week came from Impact, it was Dark that had the most wrestling for the week.
The total amount of wrestling this week was down 28 minutes from last week with four fewer matches than last week.
While the storylines are not together, Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa were still able to each have matches that were one minute long.
This week’s episodes of AEW Dark was 90 minutes and 205 Live was 30 minutes so the averages will be reflected below.
Only officially announced 24/7 Title Matches will be considered for this column.
When looking at the matches, if there is a [c] next to the match, that means that the show went to commercial during the matches. All times are rounded to the nearest minute so if a match is 4 minutes 29 seconds, it will be listed as 4 minutes. If a match is 5 minutes 41 seconds, it will be listed as 6 minutes. All times are based on my timing while watching the shows and should not be considered as the definitive totals.
