#1 Goodbye PG, Hello TV-14!
First of all, there will never be another Attitude Era and there should never be an attempt to duplicate it in any way. But we have seen what the era of PG TV has done to ratings. Sure, the company has gained a plethora of younger viewers and made a load of cash off of merchandise sales from parents buying kids John Cena apparel.
But, the fact remains that ratings have suffered as a result of kid-friendly programming. Granted, there are periods of time in which things look rather promising, but history proves that PG programming does not sustain long-term ratings increases.

Reverting back to a TV-14 format does not mean every storyline will be sexually fuelled. It simply gives the company more creative freedom to loosen the belt, so to speak and not be too concerned with being politically correct at every corner. It's a touchy subject, sure enough and it may be something that Vince is not even willing to touch.
However, the immediate impact would be huge and would undoubtedly give fans something that most of us would surely welcome.
