2024 and The WWE has ZERO Top Black Male stars

[Novembruh]

For the 2025 version of this thread title needs to change to include female stars too. Bianca has been nerfed. Ever since it was revealed she was sharing the cover of the game with Rhea it seems the company has went outbof their way to make sure that she seems lesser in comparison. Granted it will take a whole lot to downplay someone of hwr status Triple K has certainly done his best.

I don't think 2025 gets to have that problem. We gonna have some stuff whether they want it or not. Oba. Trick. Kelani. Lash.

Spoiler

Oh... and who's that guy. The former NFL running back with the lightning-fast spring, a fade and bronze skin, destined for the WHC

Spoiler

let me stop before my joke makes Racist-ass Rick disown his son for associating with us

With TKO owning WWE and UFC, I wouldn't be surprised if WWE turns into UFC with the constant MAGA promotion.

Trump might be RAW and Smackdown's new GM or authority figure.

honestly? I think they stay apolitical simply because if they get too overt, then the line back to Linda in the administration will get drawn and then you're back to being connected to Vince. I think they try and dodge that.

That won't mean the ideology won't still be inside the company and the heads of the decisionmakers. I just don't think they'll be overt, just for the sake of their own asses. We know they're privy to, and affected by, public perception. The original call-out about black talent got something to happen, even if it didn't stick. I think it'd just need consistent pressure, but we aren't really suited to apply that in this social media age of a new thing to care about every other second. There's no sustaining a call-to-action to force continual change

Imma Bianca stan and I'm sick of people trying to "People of Color" this discussion There's plenty of talk about women in the WWE.... generally they leave Nia, Bianca and Jade out of their complaints.

This is about the brothas. It cannot be that hard to have one place we can talk about what black men are going through without "what about?"

Those cornballs on reddit was bringing up Asians and Latinos....like what does that have to do with the price of tea in China?

I fight the good fight all the time about Rhea and I got WWE fans no longer wanting to dap my posts or rock with me because I poked a hole in their little fairy tale.

Besides, I made a whole thread about the women's division.

Is anybody black going to be on the Netflix show?

Wasn't nobody for the press conference

Wait until Charlotte comes back and cashes in her Charlotte in the Bank contract.

I'd say possibly New Day but if they're hyping this up on the same level as a PPV then probably not.

 

[DaHNIC82]

We going on another SNME and no black talent booked again?

 

[Hey_zeus]

So what's changed since his tone deaf "I don't see color" statement? This fakkit never beating the allegations

 

[get my pool]

Five different tag teams have had title reigns in the last 6ish months. Yet the street profits are still non-factors. Melo is a jtts, new day pretty much look like jokes since they turned. The shyt is really egregious at this point

 

[Killer Instinct]

And yet yall will still be tuning in next Monday, 8PM sharp.

Someone spitting in your face and youre not exactly trying to dodge it. If you keep putting your face in the way, at some point you have to admit you actually like it, or it doesn't disgust you as much as you want to believe it does.

 

[Rell84shots]

So this week we have
Kofi losing on MLK day
Bianca & Melo losing on SD
Second straight SNME with no black people on the card

Now we're hearing reports of Bianca vs Rhea at Mania, which means HHH will heat Bianca up just so Rhea's W can mean more. The reason they're hesitant is because the whispers of Super Rhea are getting louder, and having her beat a star that has been horribly mishandled is enough to make a lot of black fans tune out completely.

Have you seen the ratings for both shows? RAW lost over 2mil in one week and SD is getting low 1s, NXT is the only show I make a point to watch consistently and I watch SD for Bianca & Naomi/Bloodline. If neither of them are doing anything on the show then I skip that too.
