For the children

[styckx]

Word is that WWE has instituted an "unspoken" for matches that take place on the new WWE Saturday Morning Slam show. The new show, which is aimed at children, will not feature moves aimed at the neck, which would include anything from a simple headlock to the RKO. The feeling is that with the show being aimed at children, that moves performed to the neck might come off as too violent. With that being the case, WWE is avoiding any type of offense that gives the appearance of "snapping" or targeting the neck area.

The show debuts on the CW Network on August 25th.

Ok, so no neck or head injury type moves?

no headlocks, chin locks, legrops(legrops are typically across the throat), no punch to the head, DEFINETLY NO BLADING, no STFU, no no locks, no go to sleep, no DDT's,

Fuck....

I guess it's back to thumb wrestling.

Yes, let's ban moves for "looking too violent" from our show that is entirely centered around staged violence. That's a great idea.

[Ed Becker]

That's the problem. Professional wrestling is supposed to look like you're beating the crap out of each other. What most people don't realize, including some workers, is that there's more physicality in slow dancing then a properly executed collar and elbow tie-up.

Okay, so I'm now watching Saturday Morning Slam armbars and abdominal stretches.

First segment, we all learn how to do the Funkasaurus dance

Second segment, Santino comes out with US Belt to do commentary with Josh Matthews for Kofi v 1MRB

Commercial break during match

Daniel Bryan "don't try this" ad

Finish of match. With LOTS of Armbars and abdominal stretches.

Commercial, with a CW rejoiner mentioning "stylin and profilin'

Be a star segment

And a mash up of backstage videos including the Daniel Bryan snapping fingers to a beat. It's that dumb band and their summerslam song with wwe superstars lip synching to the song.

This is better than raw.
And I've only had half a beer.

Watched it with my little girl saturday. She asked 2 questions. Why are they doing the same move a lot(she's 4) and when does kane come out and beat them up. I lol'ed

That being said, it was much more straight forward than RAW has been. And santino was pretty good on commentary. I forgot he was on SD announce team while i didn't watch
