...for Raw at least

 

[Bobby Barrows]

Oh no, anyways, not much will change.

 

[Kross Rhodes]

Not much will change if this is just USA deciding that Raw has been too risky for their PG standards, but WWE itself isn’t deciding to do anything different.

It can however have a huge difference if WWE opts to use the wiggle room to expand its booking options.

The PG Era does roughly correlate with the time the booking team started to really chow down on those crayons but this certainly won't be a fix.

Stop having 50% of each show be stalling for time and we'll talk

Yeah if this is a USA thing, nothing will really change. The ratings have never really meant much bc the first hour of Raw was still PG up until 1999 I think and SmackDown was PG from the start and always has been even when it had edgier content. The only times it's really been a thing was when WWE themselves wanted to rebrand for Linda's politics so they pushed the PG rating while essentially putting on TV-G rated content to make sure it was noticed lmao

 

[Buffy]

I'm excited and I will watch the show to see if anything changes. It might or might not. We will have to wait and see.

 

[Chris]

I'm actually curious why NXT wouldn't be changed either since they have the more adult content and jokes lol

 

[Gentleman Jake]

They really pulling out the stops to get MJF

Seth "Freakin" Rollins about to become Seth "FUCKING" Rollins

 

[Chris]

people are assuming this is Cody reacting to the news bc he can bleed again

 

[Deezy]

Good now we can officially kill that stupid ass "wwe went pg" argument for why people left.

[Chris]

Zarian's sources are TV guys not wrestling guys so I'm assuming any hesitation or what not he mentions means it's a USA debate not a WWE one necessarily, if it even changes anything either way

USA telling WWE that they can’t have women come out topless with hands painted over their nipples again.
