As juvenile as it is, I can't say that I blame that little bastard. |

Well, I hate to do it, but....  I've only just put this together, but was the move to PG a response to the Benoit incident? Pretty much. WWE's image was pretty badly damaged by the incident and the shift had to happen. A year after the incident, they were PG. In reality, the shift wasn't really that big a deal since, as others have said, the product wasn't too different from what it is now back in 2007. But yeah, I think the Benoit incident absolutely played a factor in the decision to go outright PG. |

-MVP's beat down on Matt Hardy before Survivor Series.
-Any segment involving Santino including calling Lilian Garcia a prostitute, "Tom Hanks with the AIDS", etc. Heel Santino is SO not PG.
-CM Punk bleeding at MITB at WM, the last TV-14 MITB.
I'll come up with more later.

Wasn't JBL viscously beating a handcuffed Hornswoggle with a belt before the PG switch?

I hated Melina so much because of her screaming and this segment called for a very awkward moment. My mother came in and gave me a look like I was some sort of freak when she walked in on me watching this. In retrospect, I should have just changed the channel, but I remember keeping it on so that she would not think I was just watching a porno and got caught doing so. One of my most awkward moments watching WWE along with the time I watched it with my niece back when Torrie would do those stupid bikini segments. I would chase my niece into the room, which was tough because she was at a curious age, whilst trying to make sure I can still catch the rest of the steamy hot sexuality. |
