Apparently my friend said that Todd Pettengil's voiceovers on WrestleMania 12 have been dubbed over by Michael Cole. I’m sure I spotted that years ago, there’s every chance the Anthology version was put up.

I believe they have removed the DX parody of the Nation from the July 6, 1998 Raw. The show is listed with a short runtime of 1 hour and 29 minutes, plus the "Jump to" markers are gone.

I wonder if the next week's episode removes the Owen Hart/Jason Sensation segment as well.

I wonder if Kurt Angles New Year's Revolution 2006 promo will be cut.

I understand the reasons and thinking behind the removal of the segments however I disagree with the removal of them for a couple of reasons, one because if we essentially pretend that they didn’t happen then I think it’s harder to learn from wrestling’s mistakes
Secondly, where is the line with the WWE network? There is so much dodgy s*** in its history that when you really think about it, so much could be removed
Once again though just to clarify that I do understand the thought process, it’s just not one I agree with but if you feel differently then fair enough

Since they're erasing the past, I hope the kiss my ass club segments gone. All of them. Some of the cringiest segments of all time that are impossible to explain to non fans.

If you remove all the problematic content before 2010 you're looking at basically removing huge sections of every show...to me this ruins the WWE network.
History happened, why are we whitewashing it?

I wonder if they'll cut the Kat's nudity at Armageddon 1999.

History happened, why are we whitewashing it? I think whitewashing history is moronic, it was a different time with different standards. It doesn't make sense to judge it by modern beliefs. A disclaimer at the beginning of the show should be enough. They won't be getting any more of my money.

The current product is boring and the past shows are going to be edited to also be boring. Using today's lens to judge things from 20+ years ago is insane. We're going to get overly sanitized history that removes far to many things. Forget about territory stuff, WCCW is full of confederate flags, race angles etc...might as well just forget about anything that happened before 2010.

The Confederate flag doesn't seem to be an issue for Peacock. There are already multiple matches up where The Godwinns are carrying it to the ring.

Wonder what happens when we get to Clash of the Champions 14 where the flag is part of the event logo.

When you start taking things out because you deem them offensive that is a very slippery slope. First it's racism, then it's misogyny before long it's anything and everything. I just don't understand why wrestling us different. I don't see them editing movies or tv shows to make them ok.

They’ve barely removed anything so far and they’ve uploaded plenty of offensive material since the launch so I think the concerns won’t be realized (at least not yet).

I'm pretty sure there's a reason the attitude era hasn't been uploaded..hope I'm wrong.
