Currently on the roster the only guy I can see be a credible champ is Titus. He's not very good in the ring but he has the look and when he was a heel with Young as the Prime Time Players you saw a spark with him. From a kayfabe standpoint he looks like someone that could take on a Roman Reigns, John Cena, Dean Ambrose, etc. Mark Henry's time has passed and his best bet was in 2013 when he suckered everyone with the retirement. Shelton is talented but as the face of the company or the top heel? No. As a transitional champion? Yes.

I think Ahmed Johnson messed up everything for future black wrestlers trying to become World Champs in WWE. Before becoming injury prone and lazy, dude had it all, he was the first Black IC champion. Ahmed was a bad ass and he didn’t have to c00n. By the way things were looking, he probably would had been the first Black World Champion.

I didn't use to think Big E had it in him to be World Champ, but he's shown so much personality and charisma as part of New Day that now I'm a believer.

He just needs to take a page from The Rock; be entertaining, say silly ass shyt, make people laugh but when it's time to be serious you get fukking serious.

If he can pull that off I have no doubt he'll not only be champ but he'll be OVER over.

There are 0 serious black wrestlers who are contenders. If the separate New Day or make them an actual stable who takes part in singles matches, then Big E can be a credible world champion contender.

Apollo Crews has potential but he has no character, and the writers don't know what to do with him. The smiling shyt he's doing reminds of blue chipper rocky maivia, so maybe there is potential for him to grow.

If that's what u got from me saying Wresting is some corny white boy shyt and black nikkas got bigger problems than fukking fake fighting.

I guess I need some Tailor On my IPod u prolly right. Thanks for the observation.

Your post basically said black people shouldn't be involved in wrestling due to it being "corny white boy shyt". Do you realize there's a lot of black wrestling fans? Do you realize that there are blacks, both male and female that grow up with a dream of being wrestlers? You basically said fukk their dreams and go do something else. If that kind of weak limp ass attitude was taken with other aspects in life, we'd probably still literally be in chains, though cornballs like you would be in the slave guest house being taken well care of.

To be fair the New Day seem to be headed towards breakup with Xavier of all people telling them they need to be more serious bout Bray, and the fans don't seem to want that just yet

I say let them keep cooking, let go of that dumbass Freebirds rule and make Big E and X the tag champs and let Kofi get next MITB and give him his well deserved title run.

Then a yr or 2 down the line do the same for Big E

Apollo Crews is Stone Mountain excellence so I'm rooting for him but he new and nowhere near ready

Titus I think can be a legit IC title holder possibly world champ someday but briefly

R Trizzle my nizzle and all but he seem too far gone with the silly act. If they let him serious it up again I can see him being a legit world champ. They need to wrap this Golden Truth shyt up with a quick tag title run.

Wow... Well I'm black and I like wrestling. I hang out with black men who also like wrestling. My GF like wresting. That wasn't my point.

How did u get house nikka from anything I said? Wow I'm baffled.

My point is white people, created wrestling, they also moreso have funds and time to pursue it. They also dominate because they control the outcomes. Unlike REAL major sports.

I'm not gonna stress over why there is no black world champs. Cuz wrestling traditionally some low brow white boy shyt. Even white people think wresting is corny. Most black people think it's some gay shyt. That's just the facts. I like it. I love wrestling actually.

I'll try my best to break it down for u Breh. Do u think Che Guevara was worried about entertainment when his people were being oppressed? You think Bhagat Singh was aspiring to be like The Great Khali!? No... I don't knock the few that's into it. Hell yeah go for yours.

But we need more conscious warriors in these streets than we need nikkas in panties doing fake punches. That was my point. How that makes me a house nikka. I'll never know.

I try not to think of this. Because everytime I do. I question my self for watching this sh1t. Khali, Swagger, Rey, Miz, & fukkin Dean Ambien can be champ but not Booker or Mark:martin:

Swagger only held the WHC, same as Mark and Booker.

People like Miz and Rio and Sheamus held the WWE title. Sheamus held it in 2015. :mjlol:

:mjlol: I may need to remind you of Sheamus title reign in 2015 in about 5 mins, because you'll forget that, that shyt happened just last year.
