At a recent event in Balham there was some swearing from the wrestlers. It occurred to me that during "the Golden Era" I do not recall any bad language at all.Was this just because it was forbidden by the promoters? Or just confined to the dressing room

Unfortunately bad language as crept into most sports these days and is now looked on as the norm, boxing is probably one of worst next to football, great shame as once over it was the norm not to swear in front of women/children or an audience. A case of society in decline i'm afraid.
