hehehehehehehehehe
Vince aint putting a gun to nikkas heads and telling them to dance.
Be a stand up nikka if you dont like it. I doubt Moose would be dancing, Cedric aint dancing. Cuz thats not who they are.
nah nikkas do be dancing.
but Cesaro yodeled, cuz he swiss.
finn balor is a irish demon.
finlay and hornswaggle were racial epitaphs.
Harlem Heat wore flame embroided durags
nikkas do love to dance, just is what it is at this point.
New Day to me is the best reflection of black men now.
Anime, Gay, Beta Male, Goofballs, but u know they still are athletic. lol I like TND

you guys are so shortsighted.
In the great Attitude era, how many Blacks were on WWF tv? Jacqueline? Mark Henry? Hell they put all the blacks in ONE group....NOD.
10 years later in 2008, how many Blacks were tere? None on commentary. Booker T maybe? teddy Long on Smackdown....
Now in 2016, we have Black representation on both shows on the commentary, the pre-shows, the longest champion tag team right now and a merchandise monster in New Day, popular stars like Sasha Banks, and up and comers in NxT.
Mexicans and Asians have a huge market for wrestling and they don't have the representation Blacks do on WWE TV.

Mexicans and Asians don't need it, they have their own shows and promotions where they can be champions. Where's the black AAA/CMLL/NJPW?
Those promotions/shows are not in the United States. And many Mexicans/Asians that live in America prefer WWE
John Cena & Randy Savage have more albums out than R-Truth so to call him an actual rapper is kinda far fetched. Him & Road Dogg probably used to have freestyle sessions in the locker room but the closest thing to him even having a single is on a WWE: The Music CD. He literally had the same rapper/dancer gimmick since he came in the door back in 2000 & his character hasn't evolved in neither of his tenures with the company. Even James Lsworth participated in main event storylines. R-Trizzle's claim to fame is wrestling in the most pre-shows with Goldust.I think the E is more inclusive towards Blacks than ever before.
New Day, nobody views them as "acting Black".
R-Truth is just a goofball character, and he's a rapper in real life, so....?
Naomi IS/WAS a dancer in real life, so.....?
Look at all the host, commentators, ring announcers, etc all have a Black person. Hispanics and Asians have little to no representation on that front in WWE.

I have mixed feelings. Even though I think the New Day is corny now I like the fact that they're getting some shine. If it wasn't for this gimmick I'm certain Xavier and Kofi would have been released by now and Big E would be on Superstars/Main Event. They'll probably go down as the longest reigning tag team champions in WWE history (I think the concussion lawsuit from one of the Demolition members plays a lot into this. Vince is very petty.) A lot of black wrestlers are getting shine in the WWE compared to 10-15 years ago.
I do wish we could get a black WWE champion who wasn't always smiling, dancing, cracking jokes, etc but was a legitimate bad ass.

Say what you want about WCW but they had 2 legitimate black world champions. That's 2 more than the WWE had.

Cedric Alexander or Jason Jordan are your best bets right now for a winning black pro wrestler that's not a comedy act...
Caught American Alpha on Talking Smack this week and was impressed with the personality and charisma of Jason Jordan... I didnt think he had it, now I think theres hope

And when you look at the what they got coming up in NXT
I know people try explain the shyt away, but yall gotta admit they rarely let a black dude just be like a regular dude like they do with Seth, KO, Dean Ambrose, Orton...nikkas gotta be extra silly some kind of way. And how convenient that they signed the people that already happen to fit their stereotypes. This is where I give TNA credit they at least let Lashley just be a badass dude.

That's pretty accurate except I bet No Way Jose wouldn't claim black if you asked him. Otherwise yeah they're right.
Most of the black women in WWE have never danced besides Naomi and Ariane.

i already said that new day shyt is childish but its no different than john cena's childish ways and attire. the ring gear just can not be taken serious.
but right now i think kofi, has it in him to be the world champ ....... he was always over with the crowd they really liked him. but for the connesiours and whatever you need that authentic machismo to ever hold the strap and all kofi needs to do is change his ring gear and stop smiling and joking so much.
go all black like rock/austin/dibiase .......... and then you have a grand champ

Dudes be hating on Dixie but she PUSHED those nyggas...MVP and Lashley. LOL. Yet it's "QUEEN STEPHANIE" around here and all she got in your face is more Blandy, Cena, and hijacking the women from NXT standing out when she it didn't matter until Sasha/Becky and Sasha/Bayley matches got standing ovations. LOL.
