wwe pulling 'attitude era' videos off youtube

CMpunked

And not just their own 'fan nation' vids, practically all of them.



What a pain in the ass. What is linda mcmahon really trying to achieve by becoming a senator?
I hope this goes down very quickly. Again.

GTR63

In hindsight Trish Stratus was that era.

*SEES THREAD* Cornette Face!

Quite stupid seeing as WWE '13 is based on the attitude Era!

Tinie

Its embarrassing that she thinks she will actually get a seat.

Hopefully when she doesn't, and this all ends, wrestling will puck up again.

TNA is starting to look more and more appealing. This is bullsh*t :mad:

rovert

Smart move on a multiple fronts.

srm23

Tna isn't much like the attitude era but well worth watching nowdays. Much more enjoyable than wwe imo + they have Bully Ray.

rovert

Confused by JohnMarston's comments. Not like TNA is chocablock with bewbs, blood, swears and Mideon matches.

Digitalism

I hope she loses. I hope she loses because of her association with "edgy" wrestling.

Fecksake she's ruining my hobby with this bull****.

Great move Linda! Because its not like your opponents cant legally buy WWE dvds with the "edgy" wrestling on it that you desperate to distance yourself from! And its not like people its suspicious for a politician to be trying to eradicate a big part of your career history, and the history of the company you run.


Just end this campaign already, its not like she has a chance of winning anyway. She's a Republican running for office in Connecticut. Not gonna happen.

srm23

i hope the opposition use the footage of vince sedating her and leaving her in a nursing home then tonguing trish stratus in front of her, and say "THIS is your husband?! :eek:"

hilarious that she would agree to that storyline in the first place lol

A Primal Nut

Yeah, I noticed they banned a couple of guys who had uploaded most of RAW from 98 and 99 (which I'm in the process of watching). Most of the episodes are on FilesTube anyway.

Mr.Nice Guy

These guys approve:

Actually I think if the campaign fails she should revive RTC and come back as their new leader.

In all seriousness though I'm not sure this is going to do a whole lot of good. It gives the impression they are ashamed of the stuff and you would imagine her opponents will now not only reference the stuff, but also point out that she has urged the WWE to take it down; which in turn will lead to arguments about her going against the US constitution yadda, yadda, yadda.

Mr. Guappa

The Attitude Era is largely responsible for providing the funds for these two Senate campaigns. I just like that fact.

The Attitude Era is probably the only reason WWF survived. Without it, WWF likely would have ended up in WCW's position.

srm23

could wwf not have survived on the european markets? im pretty sure wwf was the choice of pretty much everyone in ireland and the uk.

remember them first shows they did in ireland after the 10 year hiatus went in minutes, imagine they came over with austin, rock, taker, hhh all in their prime!

I still stand by the fact that WWE should hold a PPV in London! (They could easily sell out wembly arena!)

They could, but they wont. The shows they do in london always have a mini-ppv feel to it that i think they do to make up for it.

D.Q

Would i be right in saying that the PPV buys hugely eclipse the ticket sales in terms of revenue? I imagine with the time difference, ppv buys would be hugely affected.

grames_bond

Ppv buys are paramount to WWE. - the time difference would result in a delay, which would hammer buys! They won't do another one in the uk!

A Primal Nut

Yeah Jim Ross said on Twitter that the timezone was the main reason they wouldn't have another PPV in the UK.
