The "curious" case of Triple K

[Rell84shots]

I honestly feel like the Melo hatred is more of Triple Nah nikka feelings to how the black performers got over in Hicklebottom's NXXXT. Melo, Trick, and em have this aura of cool and black excellence that doesn't register to Hunter White Privilege.

When Trips had the book, it was Keith Lee, Dream, Rico, and a few others. Outside of Dream (who fukked over himself), the rest of the crew were typical boring ass stunt doubles that mesh with Trips vanity projects of Ciampa, Gargano, and the rest of the kick pad cacs.

Once Dub came through and crush the buildings with doing what Black and Yellow was doing but ten times better, of course Trips had to get the boot from Vinnie, which killed his ego and pride.

Then reality hits again. That this man is a failure to everything outside of wrestling and stuck in a relic known as the WWE. He failed to bring that NWA territory energy because it wasn't moving the needle. And the fukking GALL, of the better DX member cockeyed Hicklebottom to once again take my spot and show to make it into this hood gangster black nonsense (his words not the marsupials).

So depression kick full throttle and his heart was broken literally. Until Vince was outted as a sick man with sick sick thoughts, and now the book returns into the hands of Triple Four Step and Salute.

And thus, its a full blown revenge tour as NXT Black and Gold gets diplomatic immunity, while he scorches the earth with anybody that oppose his dreams of Rock and Roll Wrestling 2.0

And he's been doing a poor imitation of Rock & Wrestling, because at least back then rock music was relevant and Vince's people knew who to bring in. HHH was always the least cool member in any group he was a part of, and it shows whenever he tries to book cool shyt. Meltzer is basically wrong all the time, but he was right yesterday when he said the WWE wants you to forget about HHH being demoted and getting his show taken from him. If it wasn't for NXT 2.0 we wouldn't have had the refocus on charisma instead of boring ass work rate.

I dont watch NXT fam, you know that.. and I never said hbk did or didn’t write them nikkas as equals, that’s not a debate


I’m just telling you as someone with eyes, if Bron Breakker is your measuring stick for what NXT call ups are supposed to look like, all these nikkas about to flop. A blind man can see Bron is their next face of the company and has been since he showed up barking

People act like Bron is light years ahead of Melo, but the reality is that he's only 2 inches taller than Melo and stockier. Melo is a much better talker and wrestler than Bron and I think Bron is cool, but it's obvious that HHH has issues with Melo becoming a star under the Vince/HBK era of NXT.

Bron ain't even that nice to me, he just got motion


I'm telling you, if ya gon judge melo career around what Bron doing, you settin yaself up for failure. Bron chosen. Ilja, Melo, all them cool lil NXT nikkas ya'll like.. none of em about to have the rocket on em like Bron. Whether they talk better, wrestle better... none of that matter, Bron chosen. you settin these nikkas up for failure by expecting them to get treated the same as him. he'll prob be WWE champ by 2026. They giving buddy that Brock treatment, wouldnt be shocked if they stick Heyman with him eventually


That african NXT nikka the only dude I can see gettin a Bron like push on main. ya'll just gotta accept that lol


Melo still a cant miss star though in his own right but if they fumble it I would not be surprised lol.. they've fumbled better. shyt, they even fumbled cody before AEW gave him a BBL makeover

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

Bron or no Bron... it's been explained in here several times that Melo ain't been doin shyt on the main

Simple. Melo was the face of NXT and Bron was still fairly new, both got drafted at the same time yet Melo has been made into a jobber while Bron and Tiffany(even less experience) have both become champions. Melo is also a 10yr vet that HHH nut huggers keep saying is getting the "pay your dues" booking, and is absolutely not being buried.

This is what I think people are leaving out... as has been a model of WWE (and really, most wrestling companies) when they got their guy, they got their guy. Another MF could be dope in the ring, have great potential, cut a good promo- but expecting them to get the same push that THEIR GUY is getting is setup for disappointment.

When Brock got there in 2002- all them other MFs that showed up with him like Cena, Orton, Batista- they got there eventually but their road was a lot longer. You KNEW if anybody got pushed to the main event fast, it was gonna be him. They made it extremely clear from the get-go.

When the Shield got there, and a lot of people debuted in WWE in 2012- it was made clear that THEY were getting the push. Not Cesaro, not Sandow, not Titus, not even Ryback. Then, they made it even more clear amongst those three which one they were banking on most of all.

Go back further and outside of WWE- WCW got Goldberg and none of them cruiserweights or midcard workhorse dudes stood a chance at getting the push he got. Jericho, Eddie, Booker, etc. could run circles around him on the mic and the ring, didn't mean shyt cause Bischoff saw who the next headliner in his mind was.

The Bron Breakker push got nothing to do with what Carmelo is doing- it has to do with the fact Bron has been a pointed project since the day he started on 2.0. He would have to do something extremely wrong to stop what is GOING to happen. Nobody, especially these NXT call-ups from the last couple years, is gonna get the push he's getting. The next new guy who gets anything close to that is likely gonna be Femi, if that.

When Brock showed up HHH handpicked Batista and Orton to be a part of the new era, and it was injuries that slowed both of them down. Once fully healthy they were in a big Mania match with Rock & Foley, the same Mania where Cena won the US title from Big Show. So it's possible to push more than one person, and Ryback was getting a push until he got on Punk's bad side. We gotta stop acting like HHH isn't fukking up, but too many people are on the "at least Vince is gone" mindset.

Yea I think Bron Breakker’s push being specifically done at the expense of Carmelo Hayes because he’s black is one of the least grounded takes I’ve ever heard but we’re also on a wrestling sub forum where grounded conversation doesn’t really exist so I’ll roll with it



I do think it’s possible that they just like Bron lol.. He has muscles, runs freakishly fast, is believable when he talks and is a Steiner. I don’t think they looked him and said “he’s white! Let’s push him to hurt Carmelo” but what tf do I know..

Either way I really do hope Melo sees success relatively quickly, especially if he out there jobbing like ya’ll say he is. I also hope ya’ll don’t downplay him when he does see some shine based on whatever Breakker is doing, because that point it’ll be kinda unfair to him as a competitor.


But I think I’ve said all I wanted to say about all this shyt. Anyway, fukk WWE. Turn that bullshyt off. I’m headed to Palm Springs, peace out brothers


Edit: Writer/Producer


They hiring, go change the game and push Melo brehs

Brock Lesnar debuted in March, was KOTR in June, put Hogan on the shelf in July, won the title from the Rock in August, beat Undertaker in a HIAC in October, won the Rumble in January, and headlined Mania by the next March. Orton and Batista debuted the same month he did and didn't do none of that type shyt til 2-3 years later. Cena was damn near on the chopping block by late-'02. Yeah, all these dudes got pushes- they didn't get the BROCK push, injuries or no injuries. It is possible to push more than one person but everybody ain't getting the SAME push. Some might get in 6 months what others get in the course of 2 years. We've seen this several times, if everybody here has been watching this shyt as far back as we talk about.

Gable doing the El Grande Americano comedy gimmick pretending he’s not himself but a Lucha Libre legend has not gone over well with many fans in Mexico and Latin America. I think WWE just saw it as comedy, not realizing that in Mexico in particular, there is a very negative connotation of the U.S. due to the government’s actions perceived as anti-Mexican. Donald Trump wanting to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America is a lightning rod. WWE billing Grande Americano from the Gulf of America as comedy rubbed salt in the wound. Ernesto Ocampo, Editor-in-Chief of Super Luchas, wrote, “This is an insult on many levels, both to Mexican wrestling and to Mexico itself. They could have left out the ‘Gulf of America’ reference and at least tried to write the character’s name in proper Spanish.”

Viva la raza de blanco

 

[Cattle Mutilation]

What is the correct way of spelling the character's name? I toss "El Grande Americano" in Google Translate and it translates without a problem. Of course, I know that isn't a completely flawless translator, but I don't know Spanish well enough to know any better.
