Jim Cornette doesn't like Apollo's new gimmick

[SpacelySprockets]

Everyone in wrestling is racist. If you did what you typed you'd have to quit watching the whole thing.

hence why I called him a "blatant racist", and no before you say "oh so you prefer subtle racists then", no, there are black media outlets and black wrestlers to follow/support and thats what I do

most wrestlers/wrestling personalities are racist and most hide their views and ideals so they dont get fired for said racism like the guy you're caping for did, they also likely don't use their platforms to spew racist rhetoric or routinely shyt on black women by calling them a man in a wig.. and even then I wouldn't give a fukk about their opinion on a black man's african inspired gimmick regardless

I'm saying bruh, we literally made a list. Only like 4 guys weren't racist. It's a dying industry, just laugh at these cac nerd clowns.

Funny thing is, a lot of black people (Nigerians in particular) fukk with the gimmick heavy.

shyt, the most pushback this is getting is on here (Which, I get. The Gimmick itself is suspect and the poeple likely behind the gimmick have a track record) and from mostly white wrestling fans who are tryna be offended FOR black people.

I personally don't think it's that problematic. Apollo seems more comfortable within this gimmick than we've ever seen him before, so run it.
