Not really. You could have had the "Val Venis gets his dick chopped off" storyline done at a TV-PG level. It just would have been even worse than it already way. They just never need to mention his junk. They just tried to cut off his "....you know.... thing." Also, the scene where they drag him out naked for it to happen would have been cut off (pardon the pun).
Maybe that's a little too much...
The Steve Austin/Vince McMahon epic angle could have been TV-PG. Because Austin 3:16 says (hold up the mic like DX)!!!! No middle fingers, no beer, no blood, less chair shots, Jim Ross screaming "Bah Gawsh" etc etc.
