Bring back the PG Era, like if you agree!

Wrestling should always be for kids and families. Doesn't mean you can't do darker things within that, but running around dropping f bombs and slicing your head open to 'be real' will always be mega corny.

If "Holy shit!" stops getting censored on NXT over and over, maybe. Yeah until this stops it's never going to feel like it's completely over The weirdest thing is the censoring of the crowd didn't even happen when WWE was at its most PG. Now it happens when the show has dropped so much of that eras shit, and it sucks, because nothing takes you out of a moment like the sound cutting out 10 times in 10 seconds.

Outside of the bleeping fans saying ''holy shit'' than I do feel they're moving slightly away from PG era stuff, though obviously not entirely away from it.

WWE's self-censoring is so weird and inconsistent. Like the segment of Rock beating the shit out of Cody backstage. On WWE's YouTube, they edited out the video portion of Rock hitting Cody with the trashcan while on WWE on USA's YouTube it's there in its full glory.

I honestly wish the crowds would stop chanting that. They all watch the shows on TV. By now they should get they are just ruining the TV show for people at home.

The regular NXT crowd f***ing sucks so I'm not surprised they keep doing it.

Roxanne said in a recent interview that she does love being a heel now, but admitted to feeling awkward when the NXT crowd booed her as a face during the segment with Becky, Indi, and Lyra: youtu.be/GyeRhkmiAGA?t=195

I love a bit of blood in wrestling. Don't need horrendous attitude era treatment of women or chair shots to the head, but a bit of blood occasionally and some pushing the envelope with language rules.

So Roman Reigns will return as the WANK PHEASANT version of his character when Netflix begins?

As someone previously mentioned, I don't think PG is the problem. A TV-MA version could be completely awful without good storylines and compelling characters.
With that said, I think they are definitely leaning towards a grittier show. I'd argue that the PG era ended some point in the mid 2010's when they seemed to just go for a more all ages type show.

She's doing very well as a heel now as well.

It's possible that people working for USA and Fox, not WWE, run those channels. On WWE's channel, the clips don't have the USA or Fox logos on screen like they do on TV but the USA and Fox channels do have them.
