5 Reasons why NXT TakeOver: Orlando could be better than WWE WrestleMania 33

NXT TakeOver: Orlando will be the 15th live special presented by the black-and-yellow brand.

A major knock on WrestleMania, especially in recent years, is how long it is at six hours in length. Of course, that includes the Kickoff show, but it isn't out of the ordinary for the Show of Shows to go overtime either, a la WrestleMania 32 last year.

No matter how much you love wrestling, you have to admit that six-plus hours is a long, long time, making it incredibly difficult to remain invested from start to finish. It's also tough for WWE to produce a phenomenal show when there's a good chance it will drag.

Thankfully, TakeOver: Orlando won't suffer that same fate given it will only be two if not two and a half hours. NXT has had some stellar specials over the years because they maintain a perfect pace throughout the night and end the evening on a high note, not leaving their viewers feeling exhausted.
