The "curious" case of Triple K

[Ripp]

With any black wrestler the limitations are always emphasized - Omos is green, Lashley can't promo Shelton lacks charisma. Whereas their white counterparts are given tools to make up for their short comings of they just let them live. Fukk triple H and his pacemaker that selfishly perpetuates his racist life.

It's insane because these tropes even get parroted on this board. I don't have a problem with those limitations... lets just use them for everyone that they apply to.

Bron Breakker and Apollo Crews are the same size and Bron is this vicious powerhouse. But I've seen him struggle to lift heavier dudes.... never seen Apollo Crews stuggle picking anyone up though.. only one of them is considered physically dominant

Well, Jade got hurt and even before that wasn't showing much improvement as a worker

Is Jade really hurt? You can look up anyone's injury and find reports on it. Nobody knows if Jade is actually hurt or not. They still can't tell us what she hurt.

They literally created a fake ass orbital bone injury for Rhea Ripley just so that she can wear a "cool" mask with devil horns. She was supposed to be out for 6 months and came back in 2 weeks with a face protector. Then 2 weeks later in the most dangerous match in the company she takes off the mask and starts headbutting bytches.

Mean while Jade gets "hurt" and quickly became an afther thought. These clowns couldn't even come up with an fake injury to attempt to make the story good.

The stlye they have her use and this "have multi person matches to mask her short comings" is a horrible idea. No way to tell if someone is improving if all they do is hot tags offense

I'd rather have Vince say fukk you to the fanbase as a collective then say fukk you to the black fan base exclusively

And with that being said Vince had hits and misses.

I wish people would realize this, instead of having this blind hatred to what's real. Vince was a senile old perverted demonic coot, but dude made sure black folks got their due to a certain degree.

Main title wise , nasty slope given the whole Rocky argument, but beyond that:

• Ahmed Johnson
• Farooq
• Mark Henry
• Booker T
• R Truth
• Jacqueline
• Jazz
• OmGOATs
• New Day

The list goes on and no matter how each of them got booked, nearly all of them got gold, pushes, and gimmicks that got over.

As a WCW head I hate the cocksucker, but as a flabby and sick wrestling head in 2025 I get it

Fucck HHH, But yall doing some revisionist history like a MOTHERFUCCKA when it comes to Vince and his handling of black talent.

Vince was the one who booked the HHH vs Booker T feud…

The blackface shyt…




Maaaaaan if yall dont gtf on somewhere brehs

 

[Ripp]

Man if OmGOATs in Japan keeps on gaining traffic, black wrestlers may have to adapt to that strong style just to thrive in MAGAt wrestling land.

I'd say I can't wait to see how he does when he comes back but it's probably best he stays away from WWE and just continue to collect their money lmao

Lets be real, wrestling has always been built on stereotypes, racial undertones, and tone deaf bookers.

Vince is a special case, but if trips had his way through the 2000s, Booker would be doing more than taking the L at WM 19

 

[StatUS]

I think Trips needs to pass the sticks to HBK but let's not put Vince's trash booking on a pedestal lol.


If Vince was still in charge a lot of y'all would be AEW stans out of spite and them arenas would only be full for big shows

I don’t think Vince is racist tbh. Just crazy af. But he’s DEFINITELY not some black ally.


HHH on the other hand, Yeah imo clearly has racist/prejudice bias against black people.

This why I scoff at this shuck and jive teathers that say 2020-2022 era was so much better than the Triple K new era. Hurt Business is what kinda brought me back and the rise of Bianca and Street Profits were over as hell. Then when this racist takes over all of sudden they on the low end of booking ( Bianca,Street Profits) or they got phased out the promotion ( Lashley and MVP). I'm still ten toes down that this while ridiculous Bianca/Naomi storyline is gonna be used to prop up Jade into Bianca spot and Triple K is gonna have Jade as his Bianca 1 of 1 smdh.

Trust, I am not caping for Vince by any means. What he did to 2 Cold still make me look at him sideways, but that's a carny that cosplays as a Irish Connecticut blue blood for you

 

[Silkk]

I guarantee Stephanie got some black dude blowing her back out if she has her father’s taste.


What if its Omos and thats why they never released him

The thing with Vince is yeah his handling of black talent was garbage for the most part. But Vince was so fukking insane that all the talent was more or less getting the fukkery of his psychotic mind equally regardless of background.


With H, it seems like it’s just the black talent that’s getting the brunt of the bullshyt. Most people gave him the benefit of the doubt at first but as time goes on, it’s looking more and more questionable. Plus it would be different if most of the people he focused on actually had starpower and could get over with the crowd. H has about a dozen favorites and only 2 or 3 of them are really crowd favorites if that.

Vince was actually notoriously lenient back in the day and let dudes do their own shyt especially with people was was cool with. Namely the kliq. I do not doubt that the Nation skit was 100% the creation of


And yeah Vince was in charge for the Booker feud but I'm im pretty sure he didn't tell Kunter Kearst Kelmsley to wait 30 seconds before pinning Booker T. And im pretty sure he also had some say on his booking because he's the son in law.


Bianca Belair 3-0 at mania under Vince
Bianca 420 day title reign under Vince
Bianca belair became the face of the company and media spokesperson under vince
King Booker Title run under Vince
Mark Henry Hall of Pain Under Vince
All of the street profits tag title reigns are under vince
New Day longest tag team reign in history under Vince
Kofimania under Vince (yes a black man winning the WWE championship at wrestlemania)
Lashley champ under Vince
Apollo Crews title run
Omos tag title run and actually being featured on tv

He did alot of wrong and some right in the beginning. But towards the end he made a complete 180 and That can't be ignored. We aren't saying the other shyt never happened but he came to his senses
