For anyone who has WWE On Demand, are the blurs and censoring of WWF gone?

Blurs are gone for the last couple months on Classics. This month the theme is "Attitude era", so they're airing bunch of matches from 98-01, Royal Rumble 2000 and Backlash 1999 and its great seeing the logo unblurred, especially since the logo was EVERYWHERE...and watching them blurred was an absolute mess, especially RR 2000 since the WWF logo was dead center when they had the classic MSG walkway entrance.
The only footage that are blurred (which are understandable) are DVD releases that they put out. Last month they aired the Hell in a Cell compilation and WWF scratch logo was blurred just like the original release in 2008. This month they're airing Rock Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment and same thing with that.

This was my main reason for asking about the classics on demand, i was hoping dvd releases would be shown uncut. Maybe there's still hope, especially with the network coming up. I'd love to get some of the WWE's released during the blurs era uncut. |

I'd love to get some of the WWE's released during the blurs era uncut. Looks like WWE is just going forward having unedited footage...i don't think they will re-release sets like Ladder Match, HIAC, Chris Jericho, and many other DVD sets from the last 10 years unblurred. The only possible one i see is a re-release of the Wrestlemania Anthology (which hopefully includes Blu-ray). Since the 30th is coming up next year, could see a WM1-30 boxset. Sucks Vince took so long to settle with the Pandas. Must have realized the amount of money spent on his staff going through each frame blurring and muting every reference to WWF the last 10 years. He could have just given a lump sum to the Pandas which likely would have been cheaper than what he spent going editing them every piece of footage. |
