This column covers matches for the period December 30, 2024 through January 5, 2025.
Ring of Honor was 90 minutes.
With the ever changing landscape of professional wrestling, we have to say goodbye to two shows. NXT Level Up and AEW Rampage had their final episodes last week so they join the other shows in the alumni section.
This week also started the era of the three hour episodes of Smackdown. Next week sees the return of the three hour episodes of Raw with the move to Netflix.
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.
