More WWE events could be expanding to two nights in addition to Wrestlemania and Summerslam

While speaking at the UBS Global Media & Communications Conference, TKO CEO Mark Shapiro commented on the possibility of WWE events expanding to two nights in addition to Wrestlemania and Summerslam…

“Definitely opportunities for that. It’s all a progression, a natural evolution. WrestleMania was a big hit for us to expand. As you look at all these PLEs, depending the partner, I think there is absolutely an opportunity to advance some of them to two days.

We’re in a good place with our storylines. The way it weaves through is WrestleMania is the culmination and then a new season begins. You use Raw, SmackDown, Saturday Night’s Main Event, the PLEs to all weave a long form story around multiple storylines and characters driving that discussion and narrative. It also gives us the opportunity to launch new names and bring back names.” (quote courtesy of Jeremy Lambert)

TKO COO Mark Shapiro states there’s definitely opportunity to expand WWE PPV’s to 2 nights, following the change for WrestleMania & SummerSlam.
