Some consider the 'PG era' to start in 2008 when the TV rating went from TV-14 to PG.
While those moments did happen after when I consider the PG era started, they were few, far between, and also cheap shock value.
When Steve Austin was told to tone the vulgarity and middle fingers down, and other reasons in 2001/2002, that's when the PG-13 era ended and PG era began for many fans. It was a slow process for it to be actually made official with the ratings change in 2008.
Is this good or bad for the spirit of wrestling?

Meltzer and the like point to HHH and Bruce Pritchard, but I doubt investors see them as equal replacement options.I don't doubt that this is going to be a problem for the board and it's a big PR issue and all, but if you're a typical WWE shareholder who's your second choice to run the show? If I was holding WWE stock and they announce they are putting him out to pasture I'm selling my shares.
