Hi Keith,
I think I sent you something about this a while ago. But here's a good reason not to subscribe to 24/7...
- WWE Classics 24/7 On Demand has now started editing any match with blood in it, as the match turns to black and white when blood appears. [Credit: PWInsider]
I don't think I even have to state why this is stupid.
Hey Scott,
Did you hear what the WWF is doing with the classics channel now? Whenever there is blood in a match, they change the output to black and white. I noticed it this weekend and I thought something was wrong with my cable or TV, but I just read that this is their way of being "PG".
There are so many things with with this. First of all, how many little kids can buy the Classics channel? Even if their parents were willing to buy something like this for their kid, would kids really be so interested in a classics channel? And then after all this, is it really so bad to show blood? I am not really a huge fan of blood, but it has always been a part of wrestling.
I can tell you this, I don't buy the channel for editing. I pay to see the shows in their original format.
It is just annoying to me. Why do they always have to find ways of ruining things. Sigh.
Clearly you’re both crazy. WWE is always committed to the most accurate representation of history possible. If they say that the screen went to black and white whenever someone had the slightest trickle of blood, then I BELIEVE them. I know they have my best interests at heart and if they think it will damage my well-being if I see blood, then by god I want them to edit it out so my brain isn’t hurt.
Now please, no more of this talk about WWE not being 100% right at all times.
