The host of the show sounds white. Is he white? Cause if he's white......Jesus why?

Why would a Black man ask a white guy this question?

Why would the white guy answer it as if he's in a position to?

Why are we moralizing cheering for a wrestler?

Goodness this is a dumb ass mess.

You've never heard of Solomonster? He's been doing a wrestling podcast since 2007/08. I used to listen to him more than I do now. He actually posted one of @3Rivers gifs a few years ago but wasn't sure who made it:

I don't think it's "wrong" if you just don't happen to be a fan of Kofi... but at the same time, for 'Craig' to think Ali is a better idea is kinda goofy.

There's a better story with Kofi than someone who just jumped from 205 Live two months ago.

A person who's won every title except THAT title, been there for years, has consistently remained popular, but has never had that big title match... this makes sense, especially for a WrestleMania feud. There's a whole backstory you can attach to it that makes sense. That's way more compelling than "wrestler gets added to the roster, beats champion in a non-title match, let's give him a match for the belt at Mania". The Ali shyt is the type of stuff they could just do on the regular TV, not the biggest show of the year.

Sure, you can say this was all happenstance, no one woulda called this for Kofi two months ago, etc... which is all true, but now that this has happened and became extremely hot, it's the way to go for WM. It's probably better than whatever else they had lined up. This wouldn't be the first time they happened to fall into something and ran with it, and it turned into something great.

I hate when black folks act like they don't like a black person just to be different. It reminds me of when I was watching one of those Wrestlemania 32 reviews and they were talking about the women's entrances, everyone agreed that Sasha having Snoop do her entrance was the best but this fool was like "I mean it was alright, but I thought that Charlotte's was just incredible".:stopitslime:

Kofi should win the title, but only if he goes back to pretending to be Jamaican.

Kofi would be the first black WWE champion so it's important to some. Not everybody has to care but framing it into a question like this serves no purpose outside addressing what some(:mjpls:) consider to be the elephant in the room. Jinder was the first Indian champ and nobody gave a fukk. They only go through our shyt with a fine tooth comb.
