I really liked how they laid out the FTR match timing. The formulaic nature of wrestling content sometimes leads me to not pay attention for periods of time.

Too often matches proceed in a standardized “7 minutes of action > commercial > five minutes of action > finish” style and it programs my brain to tune out during commercial breaks (with or without Picture in Picture). By having a match end very quickly following a break, it trains me to pay attention because a finish could come at any time.

I am personally waiting for AEW to finish a match during a PIP commercial break. It would probably rub some people the wrong way to do this, but if you really want people paying attention during breaks (and sponsors certainly do) this would be a great way to condition the audience to do so. And it’s not all that difficult to recap the action and show the finish once the commercial is over.

Regarding the use of blackout reveals, that’s how they introduced The Pinnacle a couple weeks ago. And yes, they’ve done it quite a few times with Sting.
