I just saw a commercial a few minutes ago where 5 hour energy is doing the same thing. But im sure this is all to do with how the CEO of five hour energy is running for congress and how 5 energy hasnt been the same since the attitude era

yes .. i'm sure this has NOTHING to do with Linda's aim for senate, it's just a coincidence that both events are taking place in a short gap of time

the same thing with removing the old WWE vids, they happen to have an epiphany out of nowhere and decided to remove the videos, nothing to do with Linda

just like "Stand-up for WWE" , nothing as well right ? btw what ever happened to that ? oh that's right , Linda loss and it was never heard from again

But taking the pink colors from Sandow and Ziggler to Cena pisses me off.

lol.. never thought about it that way.

And I never pay attention to the color of the ropes. So I don't care. ^^

I hope it's gone on HIAC PPV

Two mostly naked men *some of them all oiled up* rolling around in the ring together makes that pink rope apropos as a motherfucker.

The stand up to bullying may have something to do with Linda, but again, its a mentality thats sweeping alot of areas. The world has changed. Its not just the WWE thats doing this garbage. Disney, alot of kids shows. I saw Nick the other day with a program shockingly similar to 'be a star'. The same goes for a lot of channels and show

Its a mentality shift in all television aimed at younger audiences, and since the WWE is trying to clean up its image to attract the sponsors and present itself as a family friendly company, its taking part. Parents groups, sponsors, the FCC are not be underestimated.

World has changed, TV, movies and society has gone PG and PC. Look at the biggest music stars. The biebers and one directions. Even our favourite movies, the die hards and the Robocops. All PG 13 despite how ultra violent the originals were. And im pretty sure not all of them are running for congress.

The WWE has gone soft, but so has the rest of the world. This isnt the rock and roll 80s, this isnt the grunge metal anti cyberpunk 90s. This is the year 2012. And look around, everything has changed. Its all about money and thats what the WWE is after. And appealing to kids and healthy PR is how you get that money

It really is very transparent and pretty funnily so. The whole "Don't Be a Bully" add followed by Cena or Shaemus acting like a Bully and millions cheering is just so striking that I dunno how so many seem to miss it. Same with how they try to call wrestling "family entertainment", when it is a show that teaches children to settle all conflict with violence.

ITT: Everyone is running for congress using the Susan G breast cancer charity as a way to boost voters... And during october the "breast cancer awareness month" how blatently political can they get. wait what?

Yeah, it reminds me of that time I was watching spongebob squarepants

Nickelodeon aired an anti bullying segment but in the show, Spongebob was bullied by squidward AND plankton! even mr krabbs!

its like they exist in a different universe!
