Credit to the good brother @AndrewZarian for dropping the TV-14 bomb. RAW exits the PG Era starting this Monday night. This was a discussion for years, and looks to have finally been approved. Now we’ll see if it changes anything.

Another person wrote: "Times are so much different today than the Attitude Era which was way beyond TV-14. I understand trying to spice up the programming but the majority demographic might not be pleased with TV-14 programming. I applaud the willingness to do something different."

Per Andrew Zarian, the PG Era is dead. Starting July 18th, WWE Raw will have a TV-14 rating on USA Network. In other news, Vince McMahon is still the head of WWE creative and this means absolutely nothing until that changes. Carry on.
