Last night’s airing of Friday Night Smackdown in the UK cut out CM Punk’s promo reintroducing Festus as Luke Gallows because it violated the country’s advertising laws as a result of the Straightedge Superstar plugging WWE’s upcoming DVD release on Jeff Hardy.

Alright, that's.... odd.


I never understand why wrestlers plug DVDs of guys they don't like. "You, my opponent for this Sunday, with your new DVD out in stores and available on wweshop.com...." etc. :hihi: At least when DX do it, it's not supposed to be subtle....
That's a point, they never edit the D-X segments, so what gives?  Or is that because its live and they don't have the chance, do they edit the repeats?

Or do I sense an "Anti Festus/Luke Gallows" campaign and it was just an excuse to keep him off screen....

....BlowUpYourVideo, I'm expecting you to be having words with WWE Headquarters UK  :P
