He's right in fairness to him. You turn on iMPACT and all the swearing is just the normal thing, but I actually somewhat like it because it makes it feel more real. The same could have been said for blood aswell really on TNA, it was just used so much that whenever someone was busted open, it was just the normal thing to see and wasn't really a mark out moment or whatever.

You compare that to the WWE now and because we've virtually not seen blood or cursing for what seems like years, any time we do get a BITCH or ASS reference or the slightest drop of blood, it kinda seems like a big deal.

And to me I rather something be more of a big deal when it happens because TNA seems to overdo everything from spotfest, gimmick matches, etc, and it comes off not as a big deal. Therefor at least to me it isn't as good and isn't memorable. So I agree with him that there needs to be a medium.

TNA has made me sick of hearing the word "Asshole". I understand it's Anderson's gimmick and all but then, you've got people like Flair that overuse it as well. Velvet Sky uses the word "Bitch" too much also. I don't mind hearing the cussing, they just need to cut it down a bit.
