So this WWE PG is all Cena's fault.
 
Taken from the main page.

Elsewhere, it’s noted that John Cena pushed for WWE to become PG as he felt the product had become “stale.”

“You can’t please everybody,” Cena said. “Our business was down and the product was becoming old and stale.”

WWE has since attracted more advertisers in hopes of appealing to a wider demographic. Triple H said the violence is now like “Wile E. Coyote,” with Cena adding “It’s less of ‘The Jerry Springer Show’ now.”





This almost shouldn't surprise me, since most of his fanbase is age 15 or under.

Do fuck off cena.

thedamndest 08-24-2009 02:46 PM

They're still sending mixed messages. It's okay to jump off a 20-foot ladder, smash somebody in the head with a chair, or drive an opponent through a table but God forbid somebody's face be a little bloody.

Londoner 08-24-2009 02:47 PM

And its ok to say 'lets get ready to ssuucckk ittt'

Loose Cannon 08-24-2009 02:51 PM

the way they book Orton is very Wile e coyote

Ol Dirty Dastard 08-24-2009 03:27 PM

lol they are so stupid. Just because it was 14 plus doesn't mean it has to be like jerry springer.

How could a company be so out of touch?

"It" obviously being a Jolly Rancher or some other hard candy.

Londoner 08-24-2009 03:44 PM

obviously!

RatedGSuperstar 08-24-2009 03:45 PM

New to the WWE Shop: DX-themed Jolly Ranchers! All they have to do is repackage the green ones!

Hey, if they can overcharge for $3 glow sticks by slapping a DX logo on the packaging, why not?

Nicky Fives 08-24-2009 04:03 PM

He wanted to change because he knew it would be the only way his lame-ass would get over!!!

kareru 08-24-2009 04:08 PM

fuck john cena.

i hate him even more now

kareru 08-24-2009 04:10 PM

also from that story

Another point brought up during the article is that of the female performers’ wardrobe as they’re much more conservative than they were in the past. Maria was quoted as saying “The guys miss it, but that’s how it goes,” and claimed that “some of the girls get reprimanded for “showing too much cleavage,” something that would’ve never happened a few years ago”

I agree, his fans are kids so it doesnt hurt him. Fuck, we grew up with all that and more and we still turned out fine and it has keep us watching for years. This made me hate Cena with a passion that I dont have for anyone else. If he was on fire I wouldnt even spit on him but I would add gas to the flame lol.:nono:

That coming from someone who's named after Batista is quite ironic.

Londoner 08-24-2009 04:19 PM

Its funny that cena came to wwe as some gangster and now is protesting against the use of blood.

kareru 08-24-2009 04:20 PM

vince mcmahon needs a good slap if he's listening to john cena about how to run his company.

thedamndest 08-24-2009 04:37 PM

I actually like the Divas' "conservative" look. It's the only way the division will ever be taken seriously. If they do go back to a TV-14 rating I hope that sticks around. There's room for tits and ass and serious competitors in the WWE. But when we had people like the Kat winning the title and defending it in a Gravy Bowl Jerk-Off Match it's easy to see how the ladies weren't taken seriously a decade ago.

Sable in a potato sack....priceless

Pardeep 619 08-24-2009 04:41 PM

Cena is full of shit. Vince McMahon wants WWE to be PG rated, not Cena. Cena is a company 'yes man' guy who likes to kiss as much ass as possible. Cena seriously needs to go fuck himself. I can't take the guy seriously will all the lies he comes out with.

The Jayman 08-24-2009 04:46 PM

Yeah but Cena is Vince's moneymaker right now. with the merchandise, tv commercials, movie deals, guest spots on tv, etc. you know Vince is getting a percentage of all this

Yeah Vince prob gets around 92% of profits made from Cena. I can understand why Cena does what he does and why he says what he says, but he loses all credibility when he lies on a consistent basis.

yeah but his fan base is pre teen so they will believe anything that comes out of his mouth. it's sad to say but it's true

Supreme Olajuwon 08-24-2009 05:18 PM

So in Cena's opinion:

TV-14 shows are inappropriate
PG-13 movies are fine

Cena's opinion = Vince McMahon's opinion

thedamndest 08-24-2009 05:24 PM

The problem with turning Cena heel is that there is no major face to take his place.

Londoner 08-24-2009 05:41 PM

That's because Raw has forgotten how to build people.

RGWhat316 08-24-2009 07:17 PM

I also find it funny that Cena thought the product was old and stale. I guess he doesn't watch his character development too much.

Beat me to it.

NoRoolz 08-25-2009 12:40 PM

Cena wants to eliminate the 18-34 year old male fans, AKA The demographic which is what, 80% anti-Cena?

Gay

Emperor Smeat 08-25-2009 05:21 PM

I truly believe they have no clue what they want to do or be in terms of ratings. They want to go after parents and their kids so they take out blood and less vicious moves to be PG, but at same time last night on RAW they had a fat guy in a banana hammock and keep the vicious spots for certain matches in order to keep the PG-13 crowd.

Even the idea of the guest hosts is also a toss up between PG/Sports related guests and guests that normally wouldn't be on a PG rated show (like Piven). Then again, ECW and Smackdown isn't in a mess because of the drop to a PG rating.
