I respect Booker for what he done in the industry but this is a bullsh1t statement. He know got damn well that this industry is a good ol boy network and the Samoans have the Rock connection to be more authentic with their presentation. Domineering Black men intimidate a lot of white people so the last thing the company is going to do is give a Black wrestler a strong persona. They may have more talent than a lot of the white wrestlers but they are going to give them either a comedic or a weak character to offset it. He cannot look better than a lot of the white wrestlers because the fans would reject it. We seeing examples right now with Bianca with the European audience. Even through she is a woman, certain fans feels that she is OP even through she is very talent, charismatic and just as strong as the most popular women wrestler right now with Rhea.
Triple K has history of subminimal racist shenanigans and his current booking has not change the narrative about him. Vince at least put feelings to the side if they can bring him $$$. Paul is not even trying and tries to tip top around it when someone calls him out about it. He has no real desire to elevate a Black man the same way he tries to prop mid ass midgets who remind him of how he was back in the day. I know that Booker is getting paid by WWE but he cannot deep down inside believe that it's a talent issue. It a fukking gatekeeping/glass ceiling problem that has always been there with wrestling.
it’s too many things that are not coincidental
Hiring a maga comedian for WM weekend
Linda McMahon dei shyt
no black wrestlers on PLE’s
no Black History Month acknowledgement
Melo not getting the same push as Lyra, Bron
fumbling New Day heel turn

Bianca not getting the same plot armor as Rhea
Montez getting no push after stealing the show at EC & not even getting acknowledged in the presser
