Apparently the length of the show caused many people to miss the last train back into New York.

If any of you have ever been annoyed by Bryan Alvarez, listen to the first 5 minutes of the Mania recap WOR. He describes his headache getting an Uber.
His friend left before the main event to get in line for an Uber, was first in line, their Uber cancelled on them, they left and started walking away from the building hoping an Uber could pick them up away from the traffic, but Uber's could only pick them up at the stadium, so they had to go back. All while it was pouring.

They can't keep expecting people to go to these shows and happily spend 7 1/2 hours in a stadium watching this shit. It has gotten to be too much. Every main event will suffer from lack of crowd heat until they go back to a reasonable show length. WrestleMania XXX was the last Mania where the crowd was actually with it at the end. Consequently, it was the last Mania that had a tolerable running time.

In a statement Monday, NJ Transit blamed WWE for the massive delays in getting people home following WrestleMania Sunday night in East Rutherford.
"The primary factor contributing to the post-event delays was the WWE’s decision to extend the event to 12:30 a.m., which had significant operational impacts on the evening. NJ Transit was not informed of this decision until late last night," spokesman Jim Smith said. Federal regulations prohibit NJ Transit employees from working overtime to staff additional trains.
When asked about the situation Monday, Governor Phil Murphy said it was unacceptable and vowed to fix the problems that have plagued transportation out of the stadium for big events like the 2014 Super Bowl.
Fans complained about waiting for hours to leave MetLife Stadium with thousands of fans waiting for Uber rides until the early hours of Monday morning.
WWE released a general statement to media Monday: "We regret any inconveniences fans may have experienced with mass transportation after the event.” It's unclear if the event lasted longer than expected.

Legit surprised Orton apologized and didn't say something like "fuck you marks, that's why they have big screens to watch"

Legit surprised Orton apologized and didn't say something like "fuck you marks, that's why they have big screens to watch" He might finally be maturing.
