Look at the constant bumping they do 5 times a week. That earns them their money so why should we put them in even more danger?

5 times?
For real? They are trained for it, and they chose to be a wrestler.
It's not that they where pushed to choose this kind of job.
And then again, with their salary, I would come to the ring 5 times, do autograph signings, keep up with my twitter followers and blade if needed. Enough of medical supplies to stop my forehead to get an infection.

Superstars are tested from head to toe. If one of them had let's say 'bad blood' they sure as hell will not make him blade and come in contact with blood from another superstar, right?

Any reports that say they're blood tested regularly? I have never heard that. They chose to wrestle not cut their foreheads for a cheap pop. Not to mention how many guys blade then stay out there for 10+ minutes. Risk of infection and loss of blood is too much. I once again ask what justifies the risk?

@[Big Hoss Rambler] That's booking not the rating though? Say we went back to TV-14 that doesn't mean we'll get shit loads of blood does it? Not to mention we had about 3 pods broken last year at EC.

No good story lines = no good ratings. When I argue with someone irl, I tend to swear at them. Acting all PG in a feud is stupid. We need more violence. It's not just about the blood though. Those big matches are supposed be intimidating with all those cages around.

Well, WWE is very pleased with healthy superstars. So if they are checking for juice or something like that, they will check the blood right away. If the blood is not good, they sure are not allowed to compete because that's is all medical advise which WWE would follow. And then to answer your question. Ofcourse is causes more danger, but they did it for years, and was there an infection? Not that I know, if so let me know. But WWE is a safe environment. But I get your point about the extra risks.

What is missing from the cell matches aside from the blood, that is linked in to it being PG? Once again you can use crude language under the PG banner so if they can do it now but refuse to what makes you think they'd do it under a TV-14 banner?

Because the last blood I've seen was at a TV-14 event.
Don't know for sure tbh.

Didn't Jericho bleed at No Mercy 2008? They went PG in about the June, so I guess that classes as PG?

The PG rating is a scapegoat for people who don't understand what the real problems are. I've said it a million times, WCW in it's heyday was rated PG and it was the best wrestling era of all time between 96 & 98

More legit looking injuries. Nowadays, you get injured and you're out for couples of months just because of some small moves. But it's rarely done. bitch is as far as it goes.

Also, what about the divas? I want them nude or at least half nude. Bra and Panties matches, bikini competitions etc..

So you want guys to look more legitimately injured ? Isn't that down to booking? That's down to the WWE not pushing the boundaries not because they're PG is it?

They have porn for that.
