Maybe it's just me but I think Zeb and Swagger showing disdain for Barrett makes sense. It'd be too simplistic for their hate to just be focused on Mexicans and African Americans.

It's not about race for these characters. It's not as if this country doesn't have a history of caucasians discriminating against caucasians. Look at the history of discrimination of Jewish and Irish people in America.

TheFuture · 02-23-2013, 03:21 PM

Well exactly, and it just so happens that thinking provides Swagger with plenty of choice in terms of feuds....if he still has a job that is.

Zeb and Swagger would have to be very careful saying anything negative about African Americans that would cause a major uproar. They cannot say anything about slavery, segregation or the N-Word. The WWE risks major damage among the African American community, which could lead to a walk out of the African Americans in the WWE if they went too far.

Of course, if Michael Hayes is writing, then angering the African Americans who compete for the WWE should not be a problem for Hayes.

If the WWE wanted media attention, they should have had the Rock do the talk shows. I guess they are waiting until it gets closer to the release of GI Joe Redemption.

mikeboydus · 02-23-2013, 07:21 PM

GI Joe Redemption? You know that might be a good name for the third film.

This idea of "tea party patriots" as white bad guys could blow up in their face. The last time I checked Marco Rubio "crown prince" of the Tea Party movement was hispanic.

AntMan · 02-23-2013, 09:07 PM

WWE has signed former stunt woman Kendra Smith, who has a background in kickboxing, muay thai, and MMA.

"Kendra, Smith. No, no no, can't see that making any money. From now on, you're Becki-Mae Moonbright."

Of all the reasons this could have blown up in their face, that is not one of them

When was this?

Slushy · 02-23-2013, 10:09 PM

I just love the coincidence that at WM 19, Booker and Hunter were in a racist angle. Now 10 years later, Swagger and Del Rio are in a racist angle for WM 29.

These guys can target anyone. They could say Cena isn't a true American becuase he doesn't share their views.

I don't think Rock is giving them the publicity they had hoped for. I'm sure it's helping , but it's not all over the news. The mainstream media usually gives WWE the crap end of the stick.

strikezone89 · 02-23-2013, 10:15 PM

Dang looks like taker vs punk..

AntMan · 02-23-2013, 10:21 PM

Yep looks like we know who Punk is wrestling at Mania.

brainchild81 · 02-23-2013, 10:26 PM

Please let UT finally put Punk over

LuisTX85 · 02-23-2013, 10:28 PM

I'd like Punk vs Taker anyway besides Punk in the title match and so I personally have no problem IF Punk vs Taker at WM is on,I honestly believe Taker will do the job and end the streak to Punk,Which would be huge for Punk the person&character

Don't see it happening. I"d rather see Punk in the title match with Ryback jobbing to Taker.
