Besides black folks always being seen consciously or subconsciously as problematic and standoffish until proven otherwise..:mjpls:

More than anything they know they can push the limits of obnoxiousness without any real potential pushback from the talent or fans…

Man come on.

Stone Cold and 2pac? Again, a southern white guy who grew up in the country.

There was a movement at that timr amongst teenaged white kids to resist and buck against authority. That's actually what Degeneration X was about (that's what white angry rock music was about) ....you gonna tell me Dx was inspired by 2pac? Cmon...

Also, plenty of country music songs talk about hating your boss.
Dx is a nwo comedy ripoff...Stone Cold with the bald head and middle fingers? Yeah it was more like Bad News Brown.

I understand the point they make about Pacific islanders, but with white people, specifically the men, it's egregious sometimes.

only now does it look like thats changing with Jevon, Trick and Bianca but its minimal at best
And with them it feels authentic because it is. For the longest time whenever black wrestlers embraced their culture they'd immediately get labeled cringe, just to have a non black wrestler be celebrated for doing the same shyt. If Samoan culture was really popular then all of them would be walking out in grass skirts. :pachaha:

Saying Austin took his gimmick from Pac got
me crying dawg lmao
I watched the video. He specifically says he won’t say SCSA got his gimmick from Pac but hip hop being mainstream made it easier for the wrestling audience to accept his gimmick.

it’s a reason why I really fw Oba & Trick Williams. Strong black male characters that are allowed to be themselves. Unlike the New Day shuckin & jivin throwing pancakes. Or store brand nikkas like Roman, Uso, Jacob Fatu, etc.

The problem with people like nikkita is are plenty of black women that look like her/better and can wrestle better than her but because of racism and dudes undying thrist for Thick MAGA she going to be there for a while.

I never really cared for her tbh. Like a poster said before she's basically the wrestling version of Iggy Azalea :manny:

yeah, Her appeal is not being a large, thick woman in general. It's being a large, thick, WHITE woman. Extra points for being Blonde haired, blue eyed lol. She's a novelty, a circus attraction within the context of pro wrestling. They see money with her, so they're hoping hard she improves and even if she doesn't, they will probably still keep her around.
