Peacock editing out racist material from WWE archives

[dbp]

That's like buying Top Gear and deciding you need to scrub all footage with cars in it

 

[Buzzed Lightyear]

Yep

They better not take the White Boy Challenge off.

 

[The Intergalactic Koala]

They finna be doing a lot of editing then

RIP editors

Dudes going to be in the WWE Towers like:

"OH MY fukkING CHRIST, I EDITED OUT ALL OF 85 AND I GOT THREE DECADES TO GO"


Vince walking in the back:

"Goddamn Pal......keep up the good work dammit. We'll be done scrubbing all of this content by Money in the Bank...get it Money in the Bank...mmmm Money goddammit"

Lead Staff Member:

Vince:

"What a p*ssy. Patterson get me another mark from the list"

"Vince ummm *smacks* Patterson is dead *smacks*"

"Do I look like i give a shyt...DIG HIM UP AND HAVE HIM GET ME A MARK GODDAMMIT, HIS VCACATION TIME IS OVER, WE NEED THAT PEACOCK BAG!"

I guess this promo aint making the cut

I get CBS is accelerating the efforts but WWE would have probably done this to extent anyway, the late 80s/ late 90s stuff just doesn’t age well and there are enough people out there to complain about it for the sake of complaining

CBS= eye
NBC =peacock

They're going to have to scrub everything. Damn near everything. Just throw everything away, all of it.

Puro gang doesn't have to worry about such grossness. We too classy

 

[Chris Cool]

the godfather being removed from history.

 

[StarClout]

i actually think they'd be better off slapping on a content warning.


like 70% of wrestling is offensive to some group of people that isn't white dudes.


they bout to be uploading 20 minute RAW episodes due to all the shyt they had to remove

The old Network disclaimer would’ve worked for Peacock with some rewording to mention NBC Universal/Peacock

 

[RammerJammer]

Not just racist, but things they deem “distasteful” and “unfit for the network”. So basically a couple matches from the Golden Era, 1995, and everything from 2009 to present will be available

Goddamn well, all the early Ruthless Aggression shyt getting erased

 

[Jello Biafra]

So does that mean Akeem the African Dream is going to be erased from WWE history?

03-07 Cena is outta here

03-07 Cena is outta here

1. Kamala is in the dumpster
2. NOD vs DX is getting the cut
3. Muhammad Hassan segments alley oop
4. "Hulk Hogan...we coming for you *CEO cac voice* Buster"
5. The one legged man got legs to meet this cut
6. The Divas getting thrown in the bushes
7. Lita getting the beats by Stone Cold in the bushes
8. WWECW is getting the 4K treatment
9. ECW off to the extreme bushes
10. WCW during Russo ERA getting gutted into March 2001

This is a mess and a half for those that's expecting all of the content from the Network. It's getting to the point where music licenses issues was a added bonus before Peacock got hold of the WWE tapes

 

[Kingshango]

All the misogynistic and homophobic stuff is gonna be erased as well.

Vince would probably be happy if that segment he had with Trish in the ring would disappear.
