WWE hosted 13 unique pay-per-view (PPV) events in 2015, spanning 90 total matches. These 90 matches combined for a total bell-to-bell time of 20 hours (h) 53 minutes (m) and 26 seconds (s), producing an average match time of 13m 56s.

Here is the complete sorted list of match times (this does not count any pre-show matches):

59m 35s: Royal Rumble match (Royal Rumble)

The list above shows that roughly 25% of the matches fall between each of the following time ranges:

0m 38s to 8m 59s

8m 59s to 12m 26s

12m 26s to 17m 58s



17m 58s to 59m 35s

The gap between the median time (12m 26s) and average match time (13m 56s) is about 1m 30s; this gap has narrowed compared to 2013 and 2014 when it was closer to 2m 00s.

The main reason this gap has narrowed is that the median has increased, and this is because 2015 only included 16 matches that lasted under 8m 00s. In 2013, 26 of 88 matches lasted under 8m 00s. In 2014, 31 of 86 matches lasted under 8m 00s.

Cumulative and Average Match Times

Here is the sorted list of total match times for each individual performer, along with their won-loss record.

[For elimination matches, survival time was used as a performer's match time. There were six of these elimination matches: the Royal Rumble match, both Elimination Chamber matches, Team PCB versus Team Bella versus Team BAD, ECW Originals versus the Wyatt Family, and the traditional elimination tag team match at Survivor Series. Furthermore, Seth Rollins only received credit for the final portion of the match time of the WrestleMania 31 main event.]

Here is the same list of 73 superstars, now sorted by their average match time. For every superstar who wrestled in more than one match, I will include a sorted array of each of their individual match times so that you can see a rough distribution and where any outliers may pop up. Those numbers will be rounded to the nearest minute for the sake of readability. The entry for Daniel Bryan can be interpreted as, "Daniel Bryan's average match time was 14 minutes and 43 seconds, and his three individual match times were roughly 20 minutes, 14 minutes, and 10 minutes."

Miscellaneous Observations

Roman Reigns beat out Seth Rollins for the most PPV match time in 2015. This is largely because Roman Reigns stayed healthy all year in an upper card and main event spot while Seth Rollins (and John Cena) missed the final two PPV events on the calendar.

If the MITB cash-in at Survivor Series is excluded, then the average match time for Roman Reigns increases from 17m 19s to 18m 42s. This puts him at the very top of the list.

21 of the 73 performers only competed on exactly one of the thirteen PPV main cards.

The Royal Rumble card featured 10 of these 21 performers. The Royal Rumble match itself was the only PPV match of the year for 6 stars: Fandango, DDP, Boogeyman, Ryder, Rose, and Axel. The undercard featured the lone PPV match of the year for these 3 performers: Natalya, Road Dogg, and Billy Gunn. Finally there is Damien Mizdow, who wrestled on both the undercard as well as the Royal Rumble match, but never wrestled on the main card of another PPV for the remainder of the year.

Of the wrestlers who competed in at least 2 different matches, the highest winning percentages went to Charlotte (100%), Strowman (100%), Neville (75%), Undertaker (75%), and Del Rio (67%).

Out of the 53 wrestlers who competed in more than one match, only 11 had a winning record. 31 of them had a losing record, and the remaining 11 performers had the same number of wins and losses.

The overall record of the 20 performers who competed in exactly one match was 5 wins and 15 losses.

Keep in mind that one reason why there are so many losing records is because of group matches with multiple losers. The Royal Rumble match had 1 winner and 29 losers. Multi-man ladder matches have 1 winner and many losers. The two Elimination Chamber matches combined to have 4 winners and 15 losers.

Jack Swagger followed up his 0-7 record in 2014 by going 0-2 in 2015. I'm sure that he'll find his way back in the win column one of these years.

I am always nauseous at the smallest sign of a Ryback push, because Vince's fascination with musculature makes Ryback seem like a guy who will get more opportunities to rise up the card than smaller performers. But Ryback's record on PPV doesn't indicate that WWE intends to do anything major with this guy. Since the start of 2013 Ryback has amassed a record of 7-18-1, which is a winning percentage of 27%.

It's surprising to see Roman Reigns with an assumed rocket strapped to his ass yet only a 7-7 record in 2015. 2 of his losses were MITB cash-ins. 4 of his losses came in either group or gimmick matches where he didn't end up taking a pin fall. Roman's remaining loss was at the hands of Bray Wyatt due to outside interference from Luke Harper.

That career PPV record of 0-2 for future Hall of Famer Sting is quite remarkable, huh Triple H?

And do you remember when Rusev was unpinned throughout all of 2014? Well then the calendar switched to 2015 and Rusev had to deal with the unstoppable power of CenaWinsLOL. Not surprisingly, Rusev's record in 2015 was 2-5-1 and he has been firmly entrenched as just another mid-carder.

Even though Dean Ambrose had 12 PPV matches this year and finished with the 4th most match time of 2015, he actually decreased in overall match time from 2014 by nearly 20 minutes.

Based on won-loss record it appears that Charlotte (6-0) is the star who is getting one of the most aggressive pushes in the company.

5 of Ryback's 10 matches were for the Intercontinental Championship, and 3 of his IC matches ended up among the 5 shortest matches of the year.

The main event of Battleground, Lesnar versus Rollins, actually finished as the 19th shortest match of the year out of 90 total matches.

Brock Lesnar's record on PPV since conquering the streak is 4-5. This is cheating a little because I am also counting his two losses thus far in 2016 (which are not included in any of the lists above), but it is still pretty stunning to see. Brock has not been pinned in any of those 5 defeats.

The divas were featured in 13 out of the 90 matches and were given 10.1% of the total match time for the year. These matches had an average time of 9m 42s and a median time of 10m 38s.

The remaining 77 male-exclusive matches had an average time of 14m 38s and a median time of 13m 04s. And if you discard the 13 main event matches from consideration, the remaining 64 male-exclusive undercard matches had an average time of 13m 07s and a median time of 12m 18s.

These numbers greatly improved for the divas once the Divas Revolution kicked off circa Battleground. The 7 divas matches from before that show had an average match time of 7m 19s and a median time of 6m 40s. The 6 matches during the Divas Revolution had an average match time of 12m 30s and a median time of 12m 05s.

There were 57 one-on-one matches on PPV in 2015. Here are the 5 longest one-on-one matches that did not include at least one of Cena, Rollins, Reigns, Undertaker, or Triple H.

16m 53s: Orton vs Sheamus ( Battleground )

) 14m 16s: Cesaro vs Owens ( SummerSlam )



) 14m 15s: Charlotte vs Paige ( Survivor Series )

) 13m 46s: Ziggler vs Rusev ( Night of Champions )

) 12m 41s: Nikki vs Charlotte (Night of Champions)

The Royal Rumble match was a significant contributor to Bray Wyatt's total match time for the year, as he survived for roughly 46m 58s. That accounts for 28.5% of his total match time for 2015.

Some other stars who saw at least 20% of their match time for 2015 come from the Royal Rumble match include Swagger (53.4%), Goldust (41.6%), Stardust (29.1%), Rusev (24.6%), Bryan (23.1%), Kane (22.4%), and Miz (21.3%).

The Effect of Group Matches

If you add up the cumulative match times for all 73 superstars it equals 62 hours, 35 minutes, and 37 seconds.

The combined survival times of each superstar from the Royal Rumble match take up 4h 24m 19s of the total 62h 35m 37s. This means that approximately 7.0% of the cumulative superstar match time for the year came from this one match.

Here is a list of how that cumulative superstar match time of 62h 35m 37s was distributed on each PPV. A high number means that group matches had strong prominence on that show. A low number means that most of the match time came from one-on-one matches.

7h 21m 22s: SummerSlam



7h 03m 53s: Royal Rumble

5h 24m 56s: Elimination Chamber

5h 13m 23s: TLC

5h 10m 25s: Money In The Bank

4h 47m 50s: Survivor Series

4h 40m 46s: WrestleMania 31

4h 36m 18s: Payback

4h 12m 06s: Night of Champions

3h 58m 56s: Fastlane

3h 28m 42s: Battleground

3h 23m 44s: Extreme Rules

3h 13m 16s: Hell in a Cell

Here is the list of the top 15 matches of the year in terms of cumulative superstar match time. For elimination matches (like the Royal Rumble match, Elimination Chamber match, etc.) this means simply adding up each participating superstar's survival time. For just about any other match it means multiplying the match time by the number of superstars competing in the match. For example, in a normal tag team match that goes 15 minutes, the cumulative match time earned by all four superstars would be 60 minutes.

4h 24m 19s: Royal Rumble match

2h 23m 51s: MITB Contract Ladder Match 2h 14m 26s: New Day, Sheamus, Barrett vs Usos, Luchas, Ryback 2h 04m 41s: Tag Team Championship Chamber match 1h 50m 00s: Team PCB vs Team Bella vs Team BAD 1h 46m 42s: New Day vs Usos vs Lucha Dragons 1h 36m 43s: IC Ladder match 1h 30m 56s: PTP vs New Day vs Lucha Dragons vs Matadores 1h 23m 24s: Rollins vs Ambrose vs Reigns vs Orton 1h 20m 47s: IC Chamber match 1h 19m 29s: ECW Originals vs Wyatt Family 1h 18m 24s: Reigns, Ambrose, Jericho vs Wyatt Family 1h 18m 06s: Rollins, Big Show, Kane vs Rowan, Ryback, Ziggler 1h 11m 20s: Rollins vs Ambrose (Money In The Bank)

1h 08m 06s: Lesnar vs Cena vs Rollins

These 15 matches combined for a cumulative superstar match time of 26h 51m 14s, which is 42.9% of the overall cumulative superstar match time for the year (62h 35m 37s). However on an individual basis, these 15 matches took up a total PPV time of 5h 22m 34s, which is 25.7% of the overall PPV match time for the year (20h 53m 26s).

The two percentages given above (42.9%, 25.7%) for these top 15 matches fall back in line with the results from 2013 (46.4%, 27.5%) after a surge in 2014 (56.9%, 31.5%).

The percentages for 2014 jumped up due to 7 of the 12 main events being group matches. Only 3 of the 13 main event matches in 2015 included more than two participants.

Main Events

Finally, here are your 2015 WWE main event performers. These are all the guys who wrestled in the final match of a PPV event. I am going to exclude the Royal Rumble event from consideration (which is probably short-changing Roman Reigns), as there were technically 30 men in that main event match and most of them were just mid-card fodder. I am also excluding both Money in the Bank cash-ins, so Seth Rollins is not getting credit for WrestleMania 31.

6 matches: Seth Rollins

5 matches: Roman Reigns

4 matches: Dean Ambrose, Brock Lesnar



2 matches: Undertaker, Randy Orton

1 match: Bryan, Sting, Sheamus

After looking at that list of main event performers, I finally realize what John Cena means when he says, "You Can't See Me!"

So there is the complete listing of each 2015 PPV match along with other details related to timing elements and match type classifications. What stands out to you the most? Do you think Roman Reigns will repeat in 2016 as the man with the most ring time on PPV?
