WWE talking about making Smackdown three hours long.

No word yet if the show would be live

Nobody watches 2 hours of Smackdown.

So going to 3 hours seems like a perfect idea.

For a year or so.

Then everything got overexposed and the creative team couldn't come up with anything new.

Kind of like how WWE is now.

WCW Tv was best when Nitro was 3 hours and did all the main stuff and Thunder was where you got your good stuff,Luchas and cruisers

They were 3 hours from January 98 - December 99.

They were good for the first year.

Not so much after that.

That's because Disco Inferno got relegated to boring undercard crap.

Total Divas is the WWE show that really needs to go to 3 hours.
