I'm very happy Lashley won last night. I hope this be a good reign for him.

Hurt Business has taken over the world title scene

 

[Roadster]

Where's Shelton & Cedric?

 

[edge4ever]

I’m glad he won. I have a feeling brock may be coming back?... either that or drew will fight him?

Koffee Kingston started the trend and now Bobby Lashley is continuing it. The end of racial superiority is upon us and we're now witnessing the reign of greater equality.

No, we’re witnessing more and more talented black athletes get into wrestling, more interested in it, and make it to the top, or black wrestlers who have been around for a while and reached the pinnacle of popularity and overall wrestling talent. There’s just more interest than there ever has been for blacks when it comes to wrestling m. As far as the past is concerned, quite a few black wrestlers who made it into WWE either won numerous titles or did win the world title. It has nothing to do with the end of racial superiority, it’s just that more white people have been interested in wrestling and got into wrestling; and thus you’re more likely to have a white world champion. Numerous superstars, black or white, have said the same thing I’m saying above ^.

Don’t make something out of nothing. <3

Well, black people did reign as champions. Ron Simmons was WCW world champion and Booker T was too, but their reigns were comparatively shorter than white champions. It wasn't until the reign of King Booker when this was extended into something a little longer lasting.

No, we’re witnessing more and more talented black superstars get into wrestling and make it to the top. There’s just more interest than there ever has been. There haven’t been very many black wrestlers in the first place, and quite a few of the ones who made it into WWE either won numerous titles or did win the world title. It has nothing to do with the end of racial superiority, it’s more white people have been interested in wrestling and thus you’re more likely to have a white world champion.

Yeah, and how many very talented and over black people were on the roster? That’s what I mean. Sure, there has been some talented black people, but there wasn’t as many black athletes interested in wrestling in general to balance it out. I’m not a fan of just forcing a black champion for a while just because he/she is black. I’m for putting a black champion in place because they’re over, making money, and are overall gifted and can carry the company. I’m the same with any other race, too.



like I get what you’re saying man, just the whole race superiority thing or WWE being racist thing is just bs. I’m not saying no form of racism has never existed in the company anywhere, but Vince is about money and will put the belt on if you’re blue or pink for all he cares as long as you’re over and making money.

The Rock was half black meaning he is black. Dont call mixed race people with a black parent not black do we? Also I dont think it has anything to do with more interest from black communities. Need to derive statistics to suggest that. You put the title on the Rock because he was over. Same with Booker. Same with Henry. Same with Kofi and now same with Lashley. These guys were over and that's why they gave them world titles. Jinder Mahal on the other hand was someone we can safely presume was pushed to capitalise on the Indian market.

Complete agreeance. Vince is about money. Plain and simple.
