We Are NXT!
fukk.
Kurt was out here swirling with a broken freaking neck.
He said his college days. He broke his neck just before the Olympics. JJ was born in 88 so I don't know if it matches up or Vince just saying fukk it.
Vic Damone. Jr
Don't support the phonies, support the real
Dash's face
If WWE really gonna put a faux "2nd Generation" Label on JJ. That's kind already fukk up on the already
shyt to get these racist fools to like him.I really try to forget most casual and uneducated wrestling fans are conservatives and MAGA supporters and simply enjoy the product. It feels like its being rubbed hard in my face with WWE trying to appeal to that crowd with black wrestlers. Shouldn't have to do such silly shyt like this and potentially ruin Jordan.

I really don't think they made JJ Angle's son to...get racists to like him.
It's to get everyone to like him piggybacking off of one of the most legit and popular dudes of the past 15+ years in the company.There is clear difference in piggybacking and kayfabing someone to be their illegitimate son. Be known as the illegitimate son of Kurt Angle... shyt just sounds like an awful joke.There is a slim chance Jordan never gets that monkey off his back as a singles competitor if this doesn't work out for him.I really don't think they made JJ Angle's son to...get racists to like him.

When has that failed though outside of a fake von Erich storyline? The andersons weren't brothers brother.
The last illegitimate son angle ended with Hornswaggle retiring undefeated as champion

Kurt got a black son :bookhaha:
if they tuck this up
Trying to lean on older stuff as an example in an era where fans buy into anything kinda doesn't work. Would A fake illegitimate son angle work in this era? It could , but no way it has chance as being successful with fans now compare to 10-30 years ago. It's sketchy and kind of risky move from a company that doesn't like to dabble in this. Frankly, the problem has nothing to do with angle itself at the moment. It's more like an anchor if Jordan gets caught in 50/50 booking and his stock goes South. He'll be stuck with Angle son moniker no matter what does to repackage himself. So, it's worrisome
So, WWE has to be really careful on how they present him and push him. From what I saw on Smackdown, he might be in trouble long term and being forced in the spotlight in this fashion might not of been the best way to elevate him. Plus, the whole lead up to this angle has been horrible and the promo itself was rushed and felt flat. I personally want every young star to be great. So, It's a very worrisome predicament. All of this angle is trying to do is not only make Jordan more appealing, but garner empathy from fans. He finally gets to say, "Kurt Angle is my father. I haven't had my real father my whole life." This empathy in pair with such a star like Kurt Angle be involved can break barriers with the fans, but you really never got to soak it in with 3 minute time that it got.
I commend them for doing something different, but I think WWE is out of their league for handling a storyline like this properly.
Son of Kurt Angle gives him a bigger shot at being something than "Being kept off TV for a few months after being tag partner of a small retarded man for 2 years"

Reigns/Joe/Stroman/Lesnar fatal 4-way..... shyt just might be a classic in the making.
