Raziel Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Cena in the next F&F movie? Someone else for Vin and Tyrese can feud with that draws more money than they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 How dare you! Vin Diesel's voice work is integral to the success of the GotG movies and Tyrese was one of the first faces you saw in the recent Iovene/Dre docu-series! They're big deals! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Quote By Mike Johnson on 2019-07-03 13:53:00 A scheduled Raw taping in Glasgow, Scotland on Monday 11/11 has been canceled, with the event being converted into a live event that evening instead. The current plan is to tape Raw for 11/11 on Friday 11/8 in Manchester, England . That event was already a TV taping for that evening's Smackdown Live broadcast , which would air live in Europe and air several hours later in the United States. WWE will now also tape Raw that evening in Manchester, with bell time changing to 6 PM local time. WWE has also canceled the 11/5 Nottingham, 11/6 Birmingham, 11/8 tour date in London at the SSE Arena. and 11/9 event in Minehead, England, so it may be that the next Saudi Arabia event will be that week.

LoneWolf&Subs Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 So the WWE has sent out a clear message this past week that they are moving out of the PG Era, and AEW will be focusing on an older audience too. Is everybody ready for this? Who will be the first to go full Russo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John from Cincinnati Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 They may walk up to wherever the line is in 2019, but the networks and advertisers they have relationships with still have certain ideas about what kind of product creates value for them. I'm not declaring that PG is dead because of a couple swearies and a cuckold angle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltzer and Alvarez also spent Monday and/or Tuesday night saying this doesn't mean the show wouldn't be PG anymore. I believe this came up during one of the WOL radio shows too.

Casey Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 It can still be rated PG but have edgy components to the show. Pretty sure that's what he means when he says they're trying to leave that era behind them. As in, dull and sensitized and obviously scripted. And on the post-SD WOL - since you mentioned it - Dave said they're going to focus on "younger talent" and have edgier content in an effort to win back the teen demographic (which a lot of people inside WWE, and outside, think is going to be lost to AEW when they start TV in the fall). Heyman is high on Ricochet, and wants to push him a lot harder, also in response to AEW having things like the Lucha Bros, Kip Sabian, Jungle Boy, Guevera, etc. It's also why a "hip" tag team like Street Profits were on RAW unexpectedly (and probably a response to Private Party, if we're being honest).

Casey Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 They've had the ability to swear on the USA Network for the past year or so, since cable TV isn't held to the FCC's guidelines. Cable TV mainly adheres to their sponsors, which is why WWE is TVPG. But if they go overboard with the cursing, USA could decide to label RAW or Smackdown (for the time being) as TV14 or TVMA, so the sponsors are aware that mature language is being used and whatnot. Basically, WWE can do whatever they want, language and content wise, because NBCUniversal dictated last year that their cable programs could have harsher language and stuff, but they run the risk of their TV rating being changed, and I'm sure WWE doesn't want to give up sponsors like Mars and Coca-Cola.

Hard pass on that. Attitude Era is lingerie matches, dog kennels, monster trucks and chopping off penises and birthing hands. I don't think flipping someone off or calling someone a son of bitch is "Attitude Era" necessarily. That is generally how someone would talk to someone they dislike. I'm all for the promos sounding more natural. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and the ridiculous stunts. Vin owes Rocky a big thank you for breathing fresh life into his franchise. Four was a big jump from Tokyo Drift, but the top four box office returns for the franchise are the flicks Rock is in. I think Rock is still waiting for that thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
