I'll support this on general principle but honestly I don't see it with dude. I see it with Trick, I see it with Oba. Melo always struck me the same as Theory. In ring is on point but character-wise, something just isn't there, isn't authentic. Feels like he's playing a part and it makes it difficult to believe what he's doing on screen.

I hope he gets a chance just because, but if he doesn't, :manny:


Ypu never watched no indy anything.
of hayes or theory.
to place blame on them as workers in the wwe.

Wwe is burying indy talent like they always have.

Wrestling is the only sports business where they can denied you from being great because of personal bias along with being scripted. We all know the history with wrestling being the good ole boy network and the last thing a lot of white men want to see is a strong black man doing his thing. They feel intimidated by it so they either have talented black men either play the comedic role, stereotypical spot, the side kick or just as a jobber. Rarely you see them be a dominant force in the ring. They do feel more comfortable making a black woman a superstar as long it doesn't hurt their white princess in the process.

I said it before that Melo is better off just doing what he is asked for now, let his contract expire and go somewhere else. HHH has showed his colors multiple times and TKO caters to the MAGA crowd anyway. From the SP, to the New Day and R-Truth's return, creative just don't have the same energy to give black men a good story to entertain the audience constantly.


Prolific posting.

I have said this a couple of times but as a watcher of NXT..... The Trick and Melo Barbershop vignettes were some of the most culturally relevant shyt they've done in years. It should be a no brainer to take what worked down there and present it on the main roster. '

Seen below:


First time seeing this:ehh:

I said their characters are inauthentic on the roster. I'm not blaming them for it and that don't have shyt to do with their Indy work. :manny:

You mean you never watched their indy work and you did place blame on them as talents. When if you dug in the crate. You would not be surprised.
or making these statements. Trying to fix it up after the fact.

Usually folks overblow it bytching about how their favorite wrestler didn't get a push but they've absolutely hoed Carmelo on the main roster. They would've been better off leaving him in NXT if this is what they were going to do w/ him

Bruh, I really got no fukking clue what you're trying to say.

I haven't seen either of their work pre-WWE - what the fukk does that have to do with me saying I don't believe their characters on screen? How am I BLAMING them for saying I don't believe their characters? :gucci:
