Time to stop the three hour shows. It's just too much to sit through. If they really insist on the three hour Raws, then it's time to throw in some freebees for ratings. Just think about it for a second, in 1998 when the WWE was taking off they had a Tag Team Royal Rumble match, a Casket Match, a Chicago Street Fight, King of the Ring Qualifiers and two Hell In A Cell matches, all on Raw. If you have three hours to work with and ratings that are dropping, dip into your PPV gimmick matches and throw them on Raw for the world to see.
That would be great metfan or even bring back some old ones like Texas bull rope, flag on pole, ladder matches or even street fights like you mentioned. I'm sure there is a plethora of old and forgotten matches...iron man, 60 minute time limit etc.
