When Monday Night Raw moves to three hours starting on 7/23, The Wrestling Observer Newsletter reports that the current plan is to push a main event match between the hours of 8:00-8:50 p.m. to get people talking and then start the match at 8:55 p.m. so they can pick up an audience at the 9:00 p.m. mark. Another big match will then be pushed to air at 10:00 p.m. and then the final “ending scenario” at 11:00 p.m. with the overrun. Prior booking had Raw pushing a segment starting just before 9:00 p.m. as the No. 2 segment on the show and the main event starting around the 11:00 p.m. mark.
