Tweet Peacock and NBC. I did with a responsible tweet seeing things both ways and asking for a simple solution like a disclaimer.
Beats complaining amongst ourselves.

Maybe the delay in getting stuff up on peacock in the United States isn’t so much an issue of time, so much as nbc needing to go through every bit of content on the network and deciding what’s problematic and what isn’t. ECW is going to be all kinds of shits and giggles for them.

I was already sour on the possibility of Peacock ever having the same level of archive as the WWE Network. Sure seems like that’s the hand we’re dealt.

And I know this is basically "whataboutism", but they have plenty of questionable content on Peacock to begin with. I tried watching an episode of Code Monkeys on there (apologies to anyone who liked that show), and,,,yikes!

It's one of the crazier things about this being as rushed as it was because if it wasn't as rushed, you could have had people figure out this as a long term thing and have it launch when all the ducks were in a row at around Summerslam so most of the stuff that could be implemented could be done.
But eh, NBC Universal paid for it to get up by WrestleMania, WWE wasn't going to reject a billion dollars for 5 years and this is what they've decided.
I can't ever get over how many times billion-dollar companies exchange money and they somehow make rush jobs small businesses would be told to avoid making at all costs. It defies all logic.

Oh, and this might shock people, but that Vince segment with Cena and Booker T? Off of Survivor Series 2005.

And if they HAVE to do this, at least put in a message in the description saying (show is not presented in complete form).

My belief is that if it's a part of the show - like a match - keep it and add a disclaimer.
If it's a dumb, insensitive segment like Vince dropping the N word? Can it.

Stolen from r/squaredcircle
NBC before the deal: Wow, so much content, dedicated fanbase, this is a great deal!
NBC after the deal: wtf did I buy?

Outside of wrestling circles this has been a practice for a while. NBC isn't run by a crazy out of touch racist, so some things are gonna get deleted

This is untenable. You can't edit out every racist, homophobic, sexist, fat shaming thing pro wrestling has ever done. I cringe and feel uncomfortable, but a disclaimer would be a far better option here.

But why are people ok with Benoit, who took 2 lives , not being removed?

Because he didn't do anything offensive in his in ring career, its not like they took out all of Pipers career, just this one to avoid a ****storm from social media. Plus there are movies with actors and actresses that did questionable stuff.
