This column covers matches for the period May 13, 2024 through May 19, 2024
NXT was 135 minutes. Ring of Honor was 60 minutes. Dynamite was 135 minutes. Main Event was 45 minutes. Level Up was 15 minutes.
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.
The time for the Krugger/Justice match starts with Matt attacking the flagmen.
