The content of The Rock's promos is getting a lot of attention. He said that standards and practices were upset, and SEScoops also reported that there were some questions from talent about why Dwayne Johnson is allowed to pull off non TV-PG promos.
It was recently explained that FOX receives The Rock's script in advance to anticipate censoring any inappropriate language, ensuring compliance with network standards. This allows The Rock more flexibility in his speech, with FOX preemptively bleeping out any offensive content to maintain a smooth broadcast.
During Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer discussed WWE's television deal, noting that FOX receives The Rock's script in advance to anticipate when to censor certain content. Despite the scripted nature of The Rock's promos, FOX ensures they can bleep out any inappropriate language.

This arrangement highlights a unique dynamic where The Rock enjoys more flexibility in his promos while still adhering to network standards. Therefore, any potentially offensive content is preemptively addressed.
"The deal with the TV, what they (WWE) have to do is, FOX gets the (Rock’s) script ahead of time so they know when to bleep. Because the whole thing, the Rock’s promo, obviously it's completely scripted."
"But if it was anyone else, they would just be not allowed to say it, but with The Rock, it's like, he can say whatever he wants, but they know what he's gonna say and when he's gonna say it, so anything they wanna bleep out, they will bleep out. And they know when to bleep it out because they're told ahead of time."
"So that's kind of the gist of the promo and why certain things were bleeped out and everything like that, and they didn't miss on anything."
