Starting with the January 3 episode, SmackDown moved to a three hour runtime that should allow for more television time for the talent on the roster.

Appearing on a recent edition of The Pat McAfee Show, Triple H confirmed recent reports that the move to three hours was only temporary and would go back to two hours “soon.”

While Triple H wouldn’t confirm when this change will be made, reports have suggested May or June will be the timeframe, giving WWE and its roster a need to make adjustments yet again.
