WWE is a US wrestling organisation that is known for outrageous but entertaining hype. In addition to the wrestling it shows feature theatrical beatings and the like that are not shy of showing a little blood. Netflix recently took to screening WWE
programming and agreed censorship rules with WWE to censor (or no doubt to get some ideas not to get written into the script in the first place). Nethertheless the censorship rules are being noticed by wrestling fans seeing some diminished fun in
the proceedings. An example is Netflix's recent censorship of Monday Night Raw . WWE made the decision to tape this week's Monday Night Raw which opened with angle of hype that saw Royce Keys and OTM attack The Usos in the parking lot,
leaving them a bloody mess. Unfortunately for the angle, and WWE for that matter, Netflix made the call to censor the segment heavily. Not only did it negate the angle's impact, but it also drew heavy criticism from the WWE Universe online. Shortly
after Raw went off the air on Monday, Triple H took to social media to post the segment in its entirety, uncensored. See
a video of that uncensored segment in an article from si.com
