WWE, under the guise of Linda McMahon, is toning down to PG-rated television more than ever now that Linda has become a member of the Connecticut State Board Of Education. The company is telling everyone that there is to be no blood, very little sexuality aside for some comedy bits, no threatening of serious violence, and a more clean and wholesome family product because they don’t want these things to be thrown back in Linda’s face by any political enemies.

In other news, last Friday's Smackdown scored a 1.6 rating. I wonder if these two things are connected in any way. :disgust1:

lol, how many times have we seen this same exact report (with different circumstances), and we see the same WWE product for the next 2 months? I'm really getting tired of these BS reports tbh.

This isn't new though? They've been doing the no sexuality and no blood thing for 6 months or so now.

Everyone said that the original "WWE is phasing out everything worth watching" reports were BS, and look at where we are now.

Even if it is "toned down" significantly, it's still better than anything TNA or ROH is putting out right now.

Right, but we already know it's true by watching the product. We don't needd an old, rehashed report to remind us.

WWE product hasn't been toned down at all, if anything it's been the opposite tbh.

Anyone else remember Hornswoggle running through the hole in the wall back in '07?

^^^ :lmao

As for the topic, there's no way they can tone it down anymore, unless they don't even have the guys touch each other when they hit each other. And use sound effects when they hit.

I seriously wouldn't be surprised if TNA did something like that.
