Return of the Attitude Era? Nope. Just a “miscommunication”

That’s the implication in this scoop by Muchnick.

But Justine Sacco, a publicist for World Wrestling Entertainment, said ratings for the company’s programs haven’t changed. So why was WWE’s new NXT program listed on televised programming guides as TV-14, “unsuitable for children under 14 years of age?”

“There was a miscommunication between SyFy [the cable channel airing the show] and the programming guides,” Sacco said. It was just the satellite and cable television guides that contained the incorrect information, the show itself carried the correct rating.

“All of our programming is PG,” she added. 

On the campaign trail, Republican Linda McMahon has been touting WWE’s family-friendly side, the company she once ran and still owns a sizeable chunk of with her husband Vince.
