I'm happy there are going to be more long shows. They could always treat some of them like special 2 hour editions rather than mini pay per views if they don't have enough stories to justify making each one of them a special. Or they could go with more specific themes for some of their shows to differentiate them. With the NXT women's roster being what it is, in a few months they might be able to have a 2 hour special devoted almost entirely to them. As a special show that fans aren't paying money to see (other than their network subscription), they can afford to take more risks with these shows and that's not a bad thing.
Having more time once a month to show us a little more, or get some new characters over is definitely a positive though. NXT is my favourite weekly wrestling show right now, and I think this can potentially make it better.
This is coming at a good time, as between this announcement and Rollins becoming champ, we're probably going to sign up for the Network for a while. I figure why not see what the fuss is all about: give it a chance to really win us over.
