Black fans was waiting for that Scorpio Sky solo run and they put him back in the tag division…

I think a glaring issue is they dont really have experienced black wrestlers on the roster. Most of their black talent would be considered new or “kids” in wrestling or some cases green as grass.

Now could they still have some type of black/POC representation in the main event scene, absolutely….but who?
There's Hobbs and Ricky, but they have to build them up for that. With Scorpio, they have to rebuild him again to get the crowd to care about him like before. They might have to get Chris Bey, Moose, Rich Swann and Willie Mack to make some appearances and open the forbidden door for ROH to let Jay Lethal and Jonathan Gresham help too. At the end of the day, AEW needs more black wrestlers.

I'm not going to celebrate WWE having black champions when everytine said black champion drops the championship, they're made to look like they never belonged in that scene in the first place. WWE goes out of their way to present them as inferior, bumbling buffoons when its time to drop the belt to an Aryan, and they typically lose in embarrassing fashion. Sasha tapping to Charlotte with three seconds left. The pin taking longer than the finish with Kofi and Lesnar. Bianca outright shytted on in the biggest PPV of the summer. There's a clear hierarchy. If you're not white or Samoan, you may hold a title, but Vince will always remind you of your place when it's time.
Dudes were so happy for that Kofi Kingston nonsense but of course..he was just a damn cog for Lesnar to humilate yet blonde Charlottre can win belts every year and midget Alexa is doing a goofball gimmick to cover up she can't work for shyt.

Can't see that happening, Swann didn't get an AEW appearance even when he was challenging for the AEW World title.
