Former two times WWE champion Drew McIntyre recently supported the idea of two night Wrestlemania. For the last two years, WWE is organizing two night Wrestlemanias and the concept of a two night Wrestlemania had been loved by a lot of fans.
However, a large number of fans and critics did not like the idea of a two night Wrestlemania. According to a lot of fans, this concept kills the intensity of the event. This is the reason why a lot of fans wanted WrestleMania to be a one night event like it always had been.
Drew McIntyre Supports The Idea Of Two Night WrestleMania
For the fans who do not support the idea of two night Wrestlemania, there is a good news for them. WWE has booked WrestleMania 38 and WrestleMania 39 as one night event only.
And to be honest, a two night WrestleMania does not offer much variety or more matches than one night Wrestlemania. On the latest WrestleMania there were a total of 14 matches which was split into two different nights, and the total match time of the event was around 182 minutes. At WrestleMania 35, there were a total of 16 matches with more than 185 match time minute time in total.
Even though the former two times WWE champion Drew McIntyre believes the concept of two night Wrestlemania was better. Recently the Scottish Psychopath appeared on the Battleground podcast where he said;
“I like the two-night format, obviously it was created because of the times we were living in and it gave everyone an entire weekend of WrestleMania when there was no other original content, at the time. I think it’s really cool to have a WrestleMania weekend, or SummerSlam weekend.
“As much as I love WrestleMania and be performing on it, I couldn’t imagine being in the crowd for up to seven hours at a time. It’s such a long event. I remember wrestling Roman Reigns at WrestleMania 35 and we were on a little later, and you could feel the crowd getting a little burnt out as the night goes on because they’ve been there for so long.
“If we broke it into two nights, we’ve got those shorter events and the crowd’s got their energy from start to finish. They can pick a night, they can pick both nights, or make a weekend out of it. So, I’m all about it, but again, I don’t understand the business behind it and what makes the most sense, so I can’t make that decision. But for me, personally, it gets a yes.”
