We definitely have to acknowledge the effort to push Black talent in the WWE right now

Sasha Banks is back in a pivotal centerpiece role

Becky Lynch returns after giving birth to turn heel to showcase Bianca as the top face

Lashley has been a MVP candidate in the entire industry

Street Profits got a title shot

Big E is on top as WWE Champion years after they should of done it but it was done

I never thought we would see this on such a high level in the WWE.

Some of us have been aware and "in the moment" recognizing this. At one point earlier this year they had like 6 black people in WWE holding some kind of championship and Big E had the MITB briefcase all at the same time. 2 black women main eventing wrestlemania. Bobby's mega push. Black-to-Black world champions. Even Montez Ford main-eventing Smackdown against WWE's #1.

The marks will never give em props for this.

But they’ll praise Punk for having 1 throwaway match with Hobbs on rampage with a clean pin. Hobbs looks like he’d knock Punk the fukk out into a coma with 1 back handed bytch slap, I’m supposed to believe the short order cook can kick his ass smh.

Whenever companies turn "black" overnight, I can't really ignore the capitalistic value in it. shyt has less to do with trying to fix social constructs, and more to do with chasing the black dollar.



but nikkas are still shining, so I'm happy with it.

Because this could have happend 2 years ago, 3 years ago, 5 years ago

Its transparent that this is being done as a countermove to protect against AEW

Remember when I said wwe won't be able to do shyt without people thinking it's because of AEW?

Yeah it’s cool. Even if people think they’re “pandering” to be diverse it’s still good to see. We’ve seen so many black performers not get a chance over the years to be the main guy and it’s cool to see them getting their chance. Especially considering all of the bad/mid white champions they’ve had.
