In professional wrestling,
Broadway refers to a protracted match which lasts
for an extended period of time, often to a pre-arranged time limit
(such as 60 minutes), and is then declared to be a draw. The term
apparently derives from the length being such as seemingly being
comparable to that of a Broadway play.
Also a term used by
announcers and/or ringside crew to alert the wrestlers or referee
that the match has gone too long and needs to be taken home.
