Aleister Black has 9 years and 12 years of wrestling experience on Lio, and he was more than willing to carry bags and clean locker rooms until someone told him not to.

It's dumb and demeaning, and really has no meaning other than to show who the low man on the totem pole is (they'd be better served making younger guys do ring crew work or entry level truck work than carry bags. Those roles would actually have value for understanding different aspects of the business while also fulfilling the "paying dues" requirement), but if someone as tenured as Black can do it, so can Lio.

Hell, he's Lashley's manager, right? Be his gofer if you don't want to do it for a white wrestler. It'd be half the reason he was paired with him in the old days.

Black decided to clean the locker room 100% on his own free will. No body told him to do so. If I’m shown Braun Strowman carrying bags in 2016, or JBL pressing Brock in 2002 then we can talk about a point being made. Until then I’m assuming he’s being pressed because of his size and “confidence”

Sounds like they tried to impose some bullshyt hierarchy over him and he wasn’t with that fukk shyt


Anyone not rocking with him the same type of nikkas crying over JBL bullying people and shyt. You can’t bully a grown man b, stand up for ya fukkin self and stop eating dikk. We rockin with Lio. Mopping the floor and handing out waters ain’t in his contract bruh

I don't know about WWE, but all that young boy shyt is common in NFL, NBA, and in virtually every sporting culture that I know of. :yeshrug:

This will probably not end well for him.

Then he'll be doing those scorned ass "Aunt Viv" type shoot interviews blaming everybody all bitter because he didn't get the bag.

You do realize that the man in line to take over the company carried bags at one point, right? Flair did it too, back in his AWA days.

I'm not saying it isn't bullshyt, or even that size and cockiness isn't factoring into it, I'm just saying that it isn't more than is asked of anyone else.

Do we complain this much about rookies getting the newbie/young boy treatment in sports? It's not that different (though certainly less extreme in most cases).

Ronda probably showed up when she showed up and then went right to her bus after she did her thing and went home. None of that shyt applied to her. I don’t deal with the picking & choosing at all

On one hand as a black man I'm loving what Lio tweeted cuz MAGA WWE needs that slap in the face from blacks that in 2019 blacks ain't with the shyts anymore.

On the other hand, dude is definitely going to get buried and the wrestlers are of the "we don't see race" stance so I'm sure they gonna get on him hard now.

I like the attitude, but career wise it probably would have made more sense if he was a top guy. Cuz as much as I love them, the Booker Ts and Kofis and Big Es ain't ever gonna speak out too much on stuff like "As a black man I'm not carrying/playing servant to a white man", so the day a top black wrestler does it, it'll be really great cuz WWE and the superstars gonna know they can't risk getting too out of pocket back at that top black wrestler. But when it's someone of Lio Rush's stature on the totem pole, I don't think it's going to end well for him.

Okay so if he's not in any trouble, and he's been pulled off Raw, they have undoubtedly decided to scrap the Lashley/Lio duo/angle.

That leaves him with:

a) repackage for new debut on Raw or SD
b) sent to NXT/205
c) his contract about to run out and WWE aren't renewing

ALSO, one look at his profile picture and full :salute:keep doing your thing.

But he’s not a rookie. He’s in the big time now.
You make no sense ever. You know he is no veteran. He hasn’t been on the main roster a year . Then again this is TSC which is falling off like every other forum on this site. All of sudden out of better more experienced talent Lio is the symbol of talent being held back and discriminated against.
Last week Luke Harper week before that Sasha.
Are they veterans? Yes . Did they have to do the same things? Yes with no complaints.
This place does this with everything. Wrestler A has heat with office. First thing some idiot will post is that he is being held back. Then he deserves a championship run. Then wrestler A is top 1% in business despite no proof of it.
FOH Lio is a C level talent who never drew shyt and never well. He is a true midget who really needs to be on 205 or back in the indies. He is the definition of a mark for himself. Does he have talent yes but he a million miles from being a star.

I know, right. Carrying bags once you are in the big leagues is ridiculous. You paid your dues working up to the big times

A rookie was Strowman in 2015 with the Wyatt family who literally was in wrestling training for a year straight at the PC before heading straight to TV. Never paying one due. Not Lio who was in the ring working nationwide earning his way to the big leagues. You think Braun had to carry bags in 2015-16? This question has nothing to do with physical stature, placement on the card or Vince booking. All having to do with a fake rites of passage.

Flair trained to wrestle 50 years ago in a completely different business. This is also different from Japan where that kind of thing is ingrained culturally country wide. America supposedly is built upon a meritocracy. Vince claims it’s a meritocracy. If Brock or Ronda (real rookies) didn’t do none of that, it’s not a real rites of passage that I’d respect
