Time for SmackDown to follow suit, and FUCK THE FOX TRADITIONALISTS IN THE ASS!!!!

> = )

[Mr. Nerfect]

This doesn’t mean the shows are going to get better. They may even get worse. PG was a huge part of WWE’s success over the past decade and a bit.

After 14 years of their money controlling the company, maybe the kids could use a break from WWE TV for a while.

o.o

[Danny Electric]

Vince bringing back the ‘Kiss my ass’ club.

[Evil Vito]

The PG Era is over. The Era of Terrible Content is not.

Hey look, it could be better. No one is holding a gun to NBC Universal’s head. I’ll believe that when I see it. Could just be wrestlers awkwardly saying “shit” like in AEW though.

[Mr. Nerfect]

The PG Era is over. The Era of Terrible Content is not.

Especially not with what airs on TNT and TBS every week.

[M-A-G]

So things will suck in a more mature fashion, I assume?

[Mr. Nerfect]

We’ll probably get Alexa Bliss showing some strategic skin in backstage segments, which will make 14 yr olds and Vito very giddy.

[Savio]

Time for some HLA boyz!

[#1-norm-fan]

This is probably more of an adjustment to the rating to reflect the actual show than a prelude to a change in the show itself.

It really isn’t PG as is.

[screech]

So RAW will be terrible, but at least they can say shit once a week?

So I can do the stuff they told me not to do way back when again.

Gotcha.

[#1-norm-fan]

If Benoit being in the thumbnail of a video telling you what not to do isn’t enough then a TV rating ain’t gonna help.

[#1-norm-fan]

In fact, they should still run that ad. Maybe put MORE Benoit clips in it. “If you copy what you see tonight, you will eventually be possessed by the demon CTE and murder your family and yourself. Still wanna jump off the back of that fucking couch?”

[Damian Rey 2.0]

Can’t wait to finally see Charlotte v Lacey v Natalia in a titty honking steel cage match

[Jordan]

I hope WWE brings back BLOOD and thumbtack matches and barbed wire, to try and compete with AEW and their Blood and Guts style, hahaha try if you can WWE. AEW is much more brutal and gutsy than WWE.

And AEW is PG IDGAF we have BARED WIRE EVERYWHERE on Fyter Fest next week (wow) and a few weeks ago we had Blood and Guts, and last year we had a GODDERN death match with Jericho and NICK CAGE (WHAT?).

WWE would never book Nick Cage no matter how BRUTAL they wanted to be. Nick Cage would be so good in WWE though.

[Destor]

Every time i read a jordon post im confused. Is it parody?

[#1-norm-fan]

It’s a Jordan. It’s its own thing.

[Rammsteinmad]

I don't think much will change.

Jordan does exactly the right amount to blur the line between fantasy and reality, but he’ll never crack the part where we all get what he means.

[Mr. Nerfect]

It is. And if it’s not, I choose to believe it is.

[Seanny One Ball]

He’s an enthusiastic, wonderful lad.

Ask his mother.

[Mr. Nerfect]

I’m a big fan. Taker it easy.

[ClockShot]

The newer PSA was really dialed down and PG rated.

Wouldn't make sense to post it. Had to go back to the last time it was PG-14.

[Stickman]

The Attitude Era seemed to come about organically. I really doubt this does much, you need characters to go off script to make it seem real. WWE is overly scripted nowadays it's a completely different form of entertainment than it was in the 90s, not sure what they have in mind other than dropping a few cuss words and drawing blood.

Good points. The 90’s were a good backdrop for certain boundaries to be pushed, but it wasn’t successful just because it had a risqué element to it. There was an organic credibility and sincerity to the important stuff going on. There was a lot of attention to detail paid.

This means we can get back to titty honking

[Evil Vito]

If we pool enough money together we can run our own indy show including a match literally promoted as a titty honking match. We'd make bank on Fite.

[#1-norm-fan]

I’m assuming that’s the plan for Flair’s last match.

[Mr. Nerfect]

No one wants to listen to a TPWW podcast, let alone watch a TPWW funded indy promotion. Even if it has a titty honking match.

Honestly, the idea of renting a hall and hiring a ring just to make old men bump into each other for an hour or two really appeals to me.
It’s a shame the really tragic ECW guys are all dead. They’d have been the cheapest on paper, but the most expensive in terms of sheer damage.

[Seanny One Ball]

Balls Mahoney and Axel Rotten died too old

[Seanny One Ball]

It should have been Ian Rotten that died from heroin in a hospice

[#1-norm-fan]

Sandman would probably do it. I think he’s actually wrestled recently.

Go Advanced is a classy podcast.

I was watching Summerslam 92 last night and Virgil cut a better promo before his match than 90 percent of the current WWE roster.
