Number 3 gets my vote and I have never seen it in my life. The description alone makes me believe that it's the single best way of censoring anything ever.

It was, it was. The WCW Batman censorship was the greatest thing ever and beat the hell out of the crowd shots on WWF which I absolutely hated, especially since there was always this fat guy in a beige shirt on every show. Whereas WCW got a big kerplow logo. The freeze frame comes second.

I don't remember the Batman KERPLOW thing, but I didn't start watching WCW until 98.

Going with my fellow Canadians on TSN's method of censoring violence against women. Though the one time I did appreciate them is when they cut away in the middle of the infamous Katie Vick segment, and took an extended commercial break.

'The NETWORK......does not approve of this poll!" I would like to thank you for watching ECW tonight. You have to be an ECW fan to watch ECW because God knows The Network hasn't put out one friggin' commercial or one press release to let you know we're here, but thats their scheme of things. You see, in just a few weeks The Network is going to give $100 million to Vince McMahon, like he needs it, to replace us! In case they haven't thrown us off before then, and the fact of the matter is we're not a publically funded company like Vince McMahon or WCW, we survive, or thrive on your support... and for that we thank you. Now in an industry where everyone wants to be real, and everybody wants to do a shoot, this my friends is a shoot... WE HATE THIS STINKIN' NETWORK, WE HATE THEIR GUTS FOR ABANDONING US, WE HATE THEIR GUTS FOR NOT SUPPORTING US, WE HATE THEIR GUTS FOR NOT ADVERTISING US AND WE HATE THEIR GUTS FOR NOT HAVING THE BALLS TO THROW US OFF THE AIR, AND JUST IN CASE YOU'RE WATCHING THIS... HEY NETWORK, I DARE YOU TO THROW ME OFF THE AIR!!!! Because I am going to break every single rule that you put in front of me until you throw me the hell, of the air! Now this my friends... is a shoot! You better take that $100 million, and you're gonna get Vince McMahon, and you better spend it, on attorneys... Because I promise you network... THE WAR HAS JUST BEGUN!! You are my idol for typing this all out. I wish I could find a video of it!

I liked WWF Classics a few years ago, where anything that needed censoring from a 1987 show would be censored by crowd shots of people in Steve Austin and DX shirts.

Good to see Honky Tonk Man advocating the killing of women but not children. No, children is over the line. Douche.

The Channel 5 Batman effects.
More proof that terrestrial British TV does not get wrestling and never will.

But then, without Channel 5 molesting WCW worldwide, I'd never have got into wrestling.
