Word is that WWE has instituted an "[FONT=inherit !important][FONT=inherit !important]unspoken[/FONT][/FONT]" for matches that take place on the new WWE Saturday Morning Slam show. The new show, which is aimed at children, will not feature moves aimed at the neck, which would include anything from a simple headlock to the[FONT=inherit !important][FONT=inherit !important]RKO[/FONT][/FONT].

The feeling is that with the show being aimed at children, that moves performed to the neck might come off as too violent. With that being the case, WWE is avoiding any type of offense that gives the appearance of "snapping" or targeting the neck area.

There goes about 70 percent of the wrestling moves. What superstars can even wrestler on there now. Santinos cobra like strikes the neck. This is so dumb. I hope we don't see any superstars get in trouble over this dumb ass rule. It's not like the kids who are watching Saturday Slam or whatever the hell it is, haven't seen Raw or Smackdown before.

Yes, because WWE not wanting some dumb kids to try potentially fatal moves if untrained amakes them worse than Hitler amiryt?

And Tapout, I'm using you as an example of being one of those kids.

You can't go on an old defunct forum and tell people how you may have jacked up your neck by taking a double arm DDT and try to complain about this.

Not like any of us were going to watch the show anyway, so what's the point of complaining about this?

To be honest, I have the first episode set to record. I'll give it a try, but I doubt I keep watching after this one.

Because this is the internet, and the internet is for people constantly complaining about everything.

But, still......For anyone to complain about WWE "banning" moves so kids won't try it at home are just as bad as the people complaining about no more unprotected chairshots.

So when do we ban the dangerous punches and kicks or the bodyslams and suplexes, you know all the stuff that make it wrestling?

I'll believe this when it actually happens. Just sounds pointless considering it's not like those same kids don't watch normal WWE programming.

If they're banning moves to the neck, they may as well ban everything else. A botched suplex could even land a fucker in a wheelchair. Breaking your spine is okay for kids, but breaking the neck is just too much. They want those paralyzed kids to at least have use of their arms.
