10/05/24:WWE Bad Blood:Atlanta GA, 6pm start time

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

I've spent plenty of time speaking on representation here with both major promotions, I will say though that the comment section on Twitter is a cesspool.... it shows you in real time just how many wrestling fans are absolute filth, racist neckbeards smh....

But anyway, I thought this show was really good for the most part, the middle portion wasn't great but the bookends with a Classic Hell in a Cell and then a great tag match with The Rock showing up... Jimmy showing up... and the off air angle with Cody/K.O.

A lot of cool shyt...

Vince had his issues in the past no one is ignoring that, but can you honestly sit here and tell yourself that black talent wasn't booked better during Vince's final years. Black talent carried the WWE during the pandemic era, which was an even worse period than the New Generation era. Ryan Ward(a black man) told Vince it was time to push Bianca, and Vince was smart enough to listen to him.

Aight Bruce, you got it. I’m not even gonna argue with you

 

[Silkk]

I am and I just don’t care that much. I got more important shyt to care about

And y’all shouldn’t either. If it’s bothering so bad watch AEW or whatever. Black people get plenty of tv time and are in a few storylines. I’m sure they are paid well, and are not complaining.

If you're a black man trying to minimalize this as something small then I honestly don't know what to say to you




Me being critical of the booking of Austin Theory is something small. Prejudicial booking for an entire race of people on a roster is well beyond that.

Somebody needs to put Paul on game like Brandi did Cody

It wouldn't be genuine. He don't believe it. Yall forget the bs he pulled with Tez last year after he showed out in the EC? He stays with the micro aggressions. That's why I'm glad people on his smug neck about it.

 

[Organic Trees]

I feel so bad for the next match. This Drew vs Punk match is a classic so far

 

[MenacingMonk]

How’s the main event? Was just gonna ffwd to the finish.

KO rocks Lambo doors

Watching the replay now cause I was out.

I would have had thumb tacks rather than beads at the end but other than that I thought Drew-Punk was good and delivered. Aint read the feedback online yet

 

[Osmosis]

I said they have to get over as in get over with the crowd. Who on the main roster really got the “it factor”? I’ll shyt on that mane all day long if Trick Williams and Oba Femi flop on the main roster. And the c00nery of Truth.

Dude had Lashley, a former world champ and one of the most credible guys on the roster, in catering every week until dude had enough of the disrespect and asked for his release. Meanwhile, Sheamus got a lifetime contract and Braun Strowman just main evented RAW.

Imagine the mileage he could have got out of Lashley: Bron/Lashley, Gunther/Lashley, (Bronson) Reed/Lashley, Oba/Lashley/ Melo/Lashley, Priest/Lashley are all money feuds.

It was honestly the only match I ended up really enjoying.

I said the only legitimate fumble was Lashley. Who else is there? Tez?

 

[Organic Trees]

This spot with Drew being placed in the sharpshooter with blood all over his head/face

 

[HoldThisL]

They don’t really care about black talent being pushed it’s just something to criticize in a stanwar.

For me it's not about being pushed, it's about just more representation, especially on the PLEs. When is the last time a Black person had a single match and won on a PLE? When was the last time a Black male had a match on a main PLE? This is one of H biggest flaws when it comes to booking.


Shawn doing a better job than H.

Again what are you going to do about it? It’s like y’all need something to be outraged about. This is probably the most diverse the roster has been in years but yall can’t see past there being no “fba” being in the main event.
The roster is full of minorities and foreigners unlike it was in the 80’s and 90’s
Its ridiculous stop watching don’t support or give them your money

That’s weird seeing as how the opener is praised. I’ll give those 2 a watch later.
