Now can we please see the occasional blood without officials getting up in arms?

I don't live in the US so I'm pretty ambivalent about the political aspect of this but I still think it's good news because it spares us the sight of Vince gloating as only he can. If she won he'd be bloody insufferable.

The anonymous Raw GM has ordered a rematch. No DQ, falls count anywhere

LET THE BLOOD FLOW LIKE WATER.

Thank God.
You know, there's a great book to be written about the Linda McMahon campaign. I hope we get to read it someday.

*does Snoopy dance*
maybe, hopefully, the WWE will finally cut back on the PG nonsense?
Posted by: loco | November 2, 2010 10:23 PM
GREAT!! Now the WWE can go back to RATED "R"!
Posted by: wrzesien | November 2, 2010 10:59 PM
Hopefully this marks the end of the 'Stand Up For WWE' campaign with all its sickly sweet videos and Michael Cole gushing from the gills. I don't see an end in sight for WWE PG though. I think it's here to stay.

everyone shut it. You just don't get it.
We are gonna have to just deal with the PGWWE no matter what happens.
If you [want to see] blood and boobs again then either watch Flair donate 2 Pints of blood every episode of Impact or go back to your attitude era videos.
Things are gonna stay toned down in the McMahon House for a long while.

I thought they went PG to attract more top sponsors and to sell more toys to kids. Look at Mysterio, if this was the Attitude era his unentertaining self would be opening the show instead of main eventing it, but he sells a ton of masks.

The election results aren't going to affect the product that we see on TV. Keep in mind that the advertisers have more of an influence on the writers than the political campaign did.

Of course WWE will remain in its niche. What makes any of you think Linda will never run for office again?
