WWE’s move to Peacock came with some edits to older material. Now one famous DX bit is gone for good.
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.
This is the third segment that fans have noticed that was deleted from the WWE library with this move to Peacock. These segments are also getting chopped from the WWE Network for fans outside of Peacock’s reach.
Other segments that were cut include Vince McMahon using the N-word with John Cena and Roddy Piper vs Bad News Brown at WrestleMania where Piper painted half of his body black.
It appears that more edits could be on the way. We will just have to see what survives from the Attitude Era when everything is said and done.
