Swole talks about representation issues with AEW

[Rollie Forbes]

Between this and the Black Bytch promo... This is not a good look

At all.

Its a bit overboard but thats the mans company.. He supposed to be quiet and let people say what they want and slander it?
I do agree that there need to be more recruitment in black talent

Sometimes it's best just to not say anything.

You have completely missed the point. The conversation isn't about a "scripted sports show", it's about Black people who are obviously talented being held down in the company where they work.

This conversation has been the same for WWE and AEW with having too much talent and finding spots for them, and it’s not even a race issue. There’s plenty of talented wrasslers who aren’t being utilized properly.

Toni Storm just left the E because she didn’t like her spot, and she’s just as talented as Swole.

And my whole point about “scripted shows” was an example to show how black athletes, real sports athletes, get shine doing real sports. But dudes wanna play the race card over holding fake titles and choreographed spots for carny entertainment.

"She wasn't good enough"

keep in mind Marko Stunt is currently collecting a paycheck from AEW

Marko ain’t getting re-upped. They got Christian on all the videos and shirts where he used to be.

Stand with Black people whataboutism

Yeah, cause I’m gonna make a big deal over a sports entertainer’s play fighting spot while there’s bigger issues to deal with when it comes to black people in the world like police brutality or racial profiling.

Swole isn’t that good (and even still she had a good feud with Britt last year) BUT, that doesn’t invalidate her comments at all. AEW does have a black representation problem.

Neither is Britt Baker but folks been overrating her since day 1. Neither is Bunny. Neither is Anna Jay. Neither is Penelope Ford. Whole roster filled with mid non-Black women but Swole gets the call out from the boss for being "not that good" though.

Swole's talent level is not the issue and folks only want to rally around that talking point to invalidate what she said. I know you specifically aren't doing that but that's what happening and that's why it's happening. And real talk; when it comes to Black talent in wresting in general and Black women especially being "not that good" is somehow always a "legitimate" reason for them to not get opportunities but their non-Black counterparts can be WORSE and yet...somehow, someway, that's different. They can miss me with the straw man arguments and "whatabout" bs; Swole said what she said and she wasn't wrong.
