WWE’s move to Peacock came with some edits to older material. Now one famous DX bit is gone for good.



quote:

On July 6th, 1998, DX dressed up like the Nation of Domination. This came complete with X-Pac putting on blackface to look like Mark Henry. That segment is now gone.



The WWE Network is shutting down on April 4th and moving to Peacock. This segment has been on the WWE Network this whole time and now just days before the move, it has been removed. No doubt because of Peacock.

This was one of the funniest segments of the era (the greatest era, the Attitude era) when they parodied The Rock, Mark Henry, D'Lo Brown, Owen Hart, etc. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JB81hqH94CQ



The snowflakes at Peacock are scouring through thousands of hours looking to remove content they deem offensive. I wonder if the episode with Mark Henry and the transgender getting frisky will be removed due to "transphobic content"?

Just another reason why modern day leftism is such a freaking joke and made up of nothing but miserable human beings.

Next they’ll be removing all matches and segments involving the Nation of Domination because they were portrayed as the bad guys. Then they’ll move to get rid of all the Godfather segments because it glorifies sex trafficking

It's going on every where, people aren't noticing.

I noticed that they cut out a whole segment on top gear, one of the old ones.

It's the one where they buy shite cars in florida and drive to New Orleans. In Alabama they have to paint stuff on each others cars to get them beat up, shot at, or shot.

They completely cut that segment out in last showing on BBC/motortrend, because they put something about being gay and the such.

I was like where the f is the segment, it's highly entertaining as the rednecks get mad over, " country music sucks".

It's overwhelmingly white liberals. There are a few blacks, but it's a small percentage

This is exactly why I purchase physical media instead of subscribing to streaming services. Because anything I want to see could eventually be "taken away" if I'm stuck relying on some type of "streaming content".

You can also stream on your computer and save to hard drive with screen recording software. You can download videos off youtube and other services before they get deleted. We need to save as many copies as possible before the left erases everything.

The Google store blocks youtube downloaders but you can get them from websites.

addoncrop.com/youtube-video-downloader works great for chrome/brave.

I would say a combination of both. Unfortunately it is a small but very vocal minority that causes this lunacy to happen.

I loved when they did that, it was hilarious.

The thing is the man himself, Mark Henry, thought it was hilarious. But hey, these white leftists/white leftist execs know what's best than the actual guy who was being parodied.

It's such a joke.

Vince is so old and so out of touch that I don’t think he is paying attention to this.

He’s in his mid 70s and hasn’t been seen much since last year when the COVID shite started.

Did he think it was funny how his pecs went all the way around to his back?

Wrestling used to always be offensive and that was the whole point. They would take issues and blow them up 10 fold just like comedy.
