Well I’ll be shocked if it’s not Penta vs. Fenix in the finals with Penta winning. Having their two next highest profile lucha guys in Americano and Dom not in this is dumb. At least create some suspense that way. This is lame booking like half the tournaments AEW does lol

If someone believed WWE would be TV-MA or turn into 1996 ECW on Netflix, that's on them. They are a bit too sanitary for sure but we've already been through this with AEW. How many months in a row did Moxley play the part of Mr. Edgy? Notice he doesn't really do that anymore. Notice how you're not getting constant cussing from several talents anymore either. Why, it's almost as if a higher power told them to knock some of that off.

WWE wants to be PG and has been for decades. PG means occasional cussing and some blood. The censoring on Netflix is weird but I dunno, WWE clearly wants every age group and that includes kids. That's how you stay afloat and successful, by getting some from every group and not, well, dudes who used to be into ECW.

Completely censoring a live crowd to the point a promo or even an entire segment is completely ruined because the crowd is chanting a$$ or s—t on a platform with no FCC regulations is just awful television.

I understand why they do it. It’s just lame and I hate it and it’s OK for me to have that opinion.

Have you considered providing this sage wisdom to Christopher Nolan as his R-rated movie Odyssey recently crossed the $1 billion mark at the global box office? I’m sure he’d love to hear how making his movie PG would have made it more successful and kept his career afloat.

Sigh...buddy, no one is saying you can't have an opinion. Between that, having a poster turn heel and "warn" others about me, and finding out another poster keeps trying to bait by being obsessive over me in other threads, I'm wondering what's wrong with some of the posters on this site lately. Has summer been that miserable?

My understanding is that WWE wants to remain PG. I already said the censoring is weird. What more do you want from me? It's a weird decision. I watch the shows live so I don't encounter it. If some expected a return to the Attitude Era with the Netflix move, that would've been an incorrect assumption. That era is done. They want to remain PG and it's not changing.

What "sage wisdom" shall I provide? That WWE is PG. That's a statement, not advice. What does The Odyssey (fantastic film) have to do with a replay of a pro wrestling show on Netflix censoring out some cussing or blood? WWE isn't a movie. It's not The Odyssey, it's not Backrooms, it's not Obsession.

You guys gotta get out of attack mode lol. Sometimes I'm there as well but simply saying it's odd but they're a PG company shouldn't result in comparisons to epic Hollywood filmmaking and acting as if I don't believe no one should have an opinion.

For how many years is WWE going to run with this stupid shtick of the women’s locker room fighting over sleeping with Dom? This is stupid 90s bra and panties type creative.

For the love of God I beg you to get some reading comprehension skills.

I mean...whatever man. I'm not arguing all the time over pro wrestling which is something you really crave. it's an addiction at this point. Summerslam weekend you clogged the thread with constant anti-WWE takes like it's your personal FB page. You beat it into the ground so much that it gets tiresome and no one wants to respond to it constantly. You hate WWE more than you love AEW. If I can't even say they're a PG company and AEW had to pull the reins back some on national tv (which is true) without the above, then what's the point? Who needs that all the time?
