LOL, no.
If you think she's the ONLY reason they're PG you're sadly mistaken. It makes sense from a business standpoint because those two simple letters attract more advertising by default. |

Weird because most of the guest hosts and commercials I see are for more "mature" audiences.

WWE are probably trying and rid themselves of all the negative press they always seem to get every year. The guest hosts are their way to get everyone from different medias (like football, nascar, silver screen) to tune into their program. Blah blah blah. Linda doesn't have anything to do with it.
That's really just the vague gist of it. There are a lot more reasons why they're PG right now. As much as it sucks, they're going to be PG for a while. They'll go back to TV 14 (or whatever it's rated these days) at some point. |

I think Raw should be PG or whatever, ECW should be MA and smackdown, tv14.
give everyone something. |

I wonder if they think this will stop people from slamming Linda with WWE footage in her political ventures.

![]() Although if she were to somehow win, then WWE might stay PG focused even longer just so any future re-election races don't involve her opponent using the WWE as a point against her. Of course this is only focusing on Linda McMahon's political career and not anything financial related to WWE or if any future competition threatens WWE like how WCW managed to do back in the 1990s. |

If the WWE broke the PG thing, political opponents of Linda are still going to use it. Vince won't let anything that can be used against Linda pop up in the present day. And besides, Linda's career is not the sole reason for the PG shift.
I still think that a PG WWE is ridiculously stupid. I doubt it's going to change, though. Not until the well runs dry with it; the audience grows up, and Vince can make a lot of money by having his programming do the same. |

People are putting way too much of the blame on the TV PG rating for the reason the current product isn't great. Changing the shows back to TV 14 isn't going to make the writers understand character development. And it's not going to eliminate stupid ideas. Instead of Hornswoggle you get Al Wilson, Mae Young's hand baby, and Katie Vick.
Good wrestling is good wrestling. You can't hide bad wrestling and bad ideas by saying "ass" on tv more. |

TV-14 isn't going to magically make the writers good. The ONLY downside is the lack of blood, and even with that, people are putting WAY too much emphasis on it. Yes, it adds to a match but it is in no way a REQUIREMENT. |

But no, wrestling can be good, even great with a TV-PG rating. It just depends on who their target audience is. Right now, their target audience isn't us so it's moot.
They could easily book a great product under TV-PG. They just happen to book for the easier audience. It's a short-sighted mistake at best. |

– The latest issue of WWE Magazine has Mickie James giving advise on a male reader’s query to convince his girlfriend to e-mail him nude photos of herself. Here is her response: Q: This is gonna sound pervy, but how do I convince my girlfriend to e-mail me nude photos of herself? Mickie: “There are probably many reasons why a woman wouldn’t want to e-mail nude photos of herself. Is she shy? Can you be trusted? Try introducing her to the artistic side of nudity. Wait two weeks and then shoot her a text reading, “You should send me a nude photo of yourself.” Who knows, she might be receptive to it!” Yeah, the WWE product screams PG right there. |

No, she's always saying she wants to see a ring first...something about a cow and getting free milk.
She just won't put out. Last edited by DaveBrawl; 11-11-2009 at 04:58 PM. |

I hear that Necro Butcher is quite the mat technician compared to a CM Punk, Christian Cage, or Chris Jericho....he def needs to be on that list of people that Vince can sign and put over as a main eventer....Impaling yourself on lightbulbs, thumbtacks, and glass every night is a sure fire way to get to be WWE Champion versus using actual wrestling talent.

While I agree just making things darker is not going to make it better, I did want to point out that a lot of what makes wrestling "bad" currently came to be as a direct result of PG-ifying it. Killing PG alone wouldn't really bring us back to good booking or storytelling, But the mindset that's behind the PG attitude certainly needs to go to make things better. Note, they could still make good family friendly programming, they just don't. |

big difference there....while Hardy does do the lets destroy my body angle now and again....Necro Butcher's claim to fame is nearly getting murdered everynight in a half assed gore-a-thon that the fans mark on when there is a drop toe hold or something....
