PWInsider is reporting that the individual behind this week’s gauntlet match on RAW was Vince McMahon. The match lasted nearly two hours total including the after match segment that saw Braun Strowman attack The Miz.
In the past Vince McMahon has traditionally been against long matches on TV, but apparently he suggested the idea “out of nowhere” and approved the length and presentation of the match. The match is being considered a success, and it also helped transition viewership from the first to the second hour of the show.
Also during the course of the match two records were broken, longest WWE Superstar in a match and longest RAW match in history. However the purpose of the match now appears to have been to help put Seth Rollins over and help build him up leading int WrestleMania.
