I read a newz story that suggested Sheamus' Irish granny disproves of reality TV and because of that he asked to be removed from the show. I refuse to believe this isn't the truth.

What's the context with blue dot head Christian anyway? Did a blue dot randomly censor his face on an episode of Raw for some reason or something and I completely missed it? there was a story that vince hated Christian face,and suggested that they blocked it with a blue dot

I imagine they just forgot to get him to sign a release. By the way can someone explain the Christian thing to me? Edit: Wow, everything I've said has already been said/answered. Sorry

Wouldn't it have been simpler to just cut the part where he shows up during editing? Or reshoot the scene once he was gone? What part of reality TV don't you understand Please, "reality" TV is more heavily scripted than pro wrestling, so I'll let you imagine how scripted a pro wrestling reality TV show must be. Do you honestly believe all of the "spontaneous" footage in these shows is actually spontaneous and they never rehearse stuff or reshoot something? because it didn't look right? Heck, even documentaries do that. And editing is always an option, especially considering "reality" TV shows use it all the time to make people come cross as nicer/meaner/sluttier/more prude/funnier than they are. What's the context with blue dot head Christian anyway? Did a blue dot randomly censor his face on an episode of Raw for some reason or something and I completely missed it? there was a story that vince hated Christian face,and suggested that they blocked it with a blue dot Honestly I think Vince must have said that in jest but people took it as another one of his crazy ideas. Had he been serious about covering his face at all times, he would probably have made him wear a mask or something.

DID YOU KNOW?E!'s hit show, Total Divas, is more real than most shows on Tru TV combined? Pro Wrestling kind of invented reality TV in a way,especially alot of elements of the Attitude era which predates the modern style of reality tv by quite a while Hell we had Mcmahon family drama long before the Osbournes. the whole fly on the wall act like there are no cameras - and dont look in to the cameras (apart from when being interviewed) thing was being done in backstage skits since the early 2000s and it is now the way alot of reality shows are done. These shows even have a system similar to Kayfabe. The WWE is usually ahead of the curve whether people realize/admit it or not. All that something like ESPN is really doing is taking things that happen and turning them into an angle so that they have something to report on and then have outrageous personalities give their "opinion" on it, and usually it involves one guy taking a heelish stance and refusing to back down for maximum viewer outrage. It's booking 101 really.

He's got his hand up, as if say ''No, get that camera off me.'' Smart man.

All I know is Brie must have the same tattoo underneath her skirt cuz they kept blurring that out too.
Edit: Or perhaps Brie has a tattoo down there of Sheamus's face?

Sorry Does a WWE talent really need to sign a release to appear on a WWE produced reality show? The show is being produced by a company called Bunim Murray productions who also do the kardashens and all its spin offs. WWE do have a co producer credit but I'm not sure to what extent if much their input is, wouldn't surprise me if WWE are mainly just answering any questions Bunim Murray have about the product, providing archive footage and being able to shut down anything they're not comftorble with happening on the show.

I dunno about the whole Not wanting to pay him/not being on contract theory. I mean, Sandow camoed a few weeks ago when Cameron grinded against him, and he still had a face. Seems more likely he just didn't wanna be on it.

Or Sheamus's face is a girl butt and he wears a people mask on his face and he didn't have his people face mask over his girl butt face in this shot?

I found this in an interview with Kaitlyn and it explains the pixelating: "You know we’re always on camera anyways on TV days and stuff, but there’s like extra cameras, E! cameras, following these girls around everywhere and sometimes it’s a little bit intrusive. Though, you know I found out stuff about pixelating, its extensive and time-consuming. So if you don’t want to be on camera, you just throw up a couple of gang signs, or you know something that they might have to pixelate and then boom, you don’t have to worry about being on the show. In all seriousness, it’s a really great concept bringing all kinds of new fans into our world.” Source: www.wrestlenewz.com/wwe-news/kaitlyn-comments-on-total-divas-codys-mustache-more/

This raises another question, what would WWE do if John Cena return from injury with a giant WWF scratch logo tattooed across his chest?

I guess WWE Superstars(tm) get paid a minimun amount for every appearance they make and the producers didn't think it was worth it.

I get really depressed when I sit down and think about the fact that most of what is seen on the Top Gear challenges is scripted to the hilt.

I got a feeling that Sheamus insisted that his face be blurred by the production crew afterwords.
"And I don't give permission for my face to appear on Total Divas, fellas! I want it blurred!"
