Hypothesis: If PG ended tomorrow

[JEPW]

Do you not think that cheesy storylines are just far more likely to happen in a PG rated show? Realism is hard to attain with PG when what wrestling feuds are really about is the desire two guys eventually have to beat the living shit out of each other. How do you get two guys to that point without breaking PG rules? I'm genuinely interested to hear suggestions.

PG has nothing to do with the realism of storylines. You can have a personal fued, sans cussing and bleeding, if written correctly.

Danielson's original fued with Micheal Cole came off as a very realistic situation that any hard working individual could relate to. You have a guy who has a proven track record everywhere he's been, has an elite level of ability, and yet here he is, feeling he's being held down by the company becuase he doesn't fit their model of a wreslter even though he has earned the oppurtunity through past work.

That's not realistic? The problem has been stated; the writing team doesn't understand how to book a wrestling show.
