Hey, does anybody think the WWE should cut out the kiddie crap and go back to PG-13 and end this PG garbage.

I know you are just being Gertner but I will swerve this into an actual conversation.


My wife who is NOT a wrestling fan but does watch with me on occasion to appease me had a conversation while watching some wrestling the other night.

First we watched a few CM Punk matches from his Blu Ray. No issue.
Then we watched a Royal Rumble from the Attitude Era. Some sexual references and a lot of language.
She got really confused by that.

We both came to the conclusion that cussing and excess blood does NOT help nor make wrestling better. It has it's place and can enhance matches on occasion but over saturation of anything dulls the product. I found myself getting embarrassed by the language and perverse nature of the Attitude Era product. It was awesome when potty words were cool when I was a teenager but now I find it crass and totally unnecessary.

Lack of blood and language has, in some ways, helped the product become MORE mainstream but more importantly makes the wrestlers work harder to tell a great story.

Everyone will have an opinion on the matter I just wanted to share a persons point of view that has not been tainted by years of fandom and more importantly years of being a jaded message board attendee.

Been saying that for years. I don't miss blood and foul language, really.

I just miss engaging plots and wrestlers I gave a shit about.
