I'm not sure if this can be said about the whole business.

As far as the WWE is concerned, I'd say it's a combination of them becoming a publicly traded company and becoming a well known entertainment outlet in the media age. Anything and everything they do can (and has) land them under a media microscope.

There's a chance they'll have to answer to the norms of society for what they do, so a lot of the things that used to happen in the underground world of wrestling don't go on anymore. Pulling some of those old stunts are not acceptable in the work place in the 21st century, and wrestling or not it could land Vince on Good Morning America. That's not a place he goes when PR is good.
