Having just a 5-match card and 2.5 to 3 hours per TakeOver helps a lot but on the flip side, I personally think NXT has too many extra long matches for TakeOver shows or follow a very similar routine.

They always have 1-2 matches per show that go on way longer than it should and/or devolve into a spam fest for moves and finishers. Like Gargano matches are the type I've soured on the most since they've felt like very forced epics these days, especially once HBK started having a bigger hand in them, even though the matches are also almost always great.
