I'm not sure if the rule still exists for anyone, but did you know that prior to the release of Smackdown vs Raw '09 magazines and websites that were given pre-releases for reviews were instructed to not include any screenshots of Triple H in "vulnerable positions"? That's right. The man is so protected it crosses over to video games.
From the October '08 Power Slam Magazine...
"THQ, publisher of the forthcoming SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 video game, has helpfully distributed a WWE-approved list of guidelines which all magazines are expected to adhere to concerning screen-shots used in conjunction with reviews of the game.
Attempting to minimise the violence in the game, WWE and THQ have decreed: "Do NOT show blood." And, "If using weapons, do not show anything with significant force (or intent to have)." These directives are in accordance with WWE's new toned-down, PG-rated product.
However, we're not sure how WWE and THQ can justify the clause pertaining to Triple H in the SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 screen shot guidelines. It states: "Refrain from showing Triple H in a losing/defeated/defenceless position.
THQ does not ask that anyone else on the WWE roster be 'protected' in this manner: magazines are only forbidden from printing screen-shots of HHH " in a losing/defeated/defenceless position. "
