This Is What A REAL Wrestling Thread Looks Like - - - Part 211

So, what exactly was racist? Also, who is this woman that it even matters?

Nothing she said in those tweets particularly stood out as "racist" to me but considering the era of Political Correctness we're in, saying anything that even sounds like a generalization of black people can get people up in arms. I say that as a black person myself that while I'm against racism, this era of over sensitive ness can be annoyingly grating at times.

Rusev can cut promos now?

I feel like he's turning chicken **** into chicken salad and considering the material he's been given since Cena, he's showing that he could do more roles than monster heel.

I have no idea of the state of play in WWE right now but I wouldn't be surprised if the plan is for Rollins reign to surpass Punks so they can further wipe him for their history, as they are currently doing with inflato taking AJ's record.

I don't think that will happen with Rollins. I really wouldn't mind the Nikki taking the longest reign from AJ if she actually defended the belt. It's like when Ambrose became longest reigning US Champ but never defended it.

He's basically become Balki Bartokomous on HGH. His character's malapropisms and mixed metaphors, combined with the incongruity of his physical appearance and in-ring character, is kind of connecting with fans on a comedic level.

The tweet about black people "being so horny" is nothing. It's the tweets of her dropping N-bombs and co-signing someone saying they hate f-ing n-words that's the problem.

Hopefully WWE doesn't turn him into a comedy character now.

"Now"? I thought they'd already done that. Rusev has largely been a joke IMO since his feud with Cena.

I'm against Nikki breaking AJ's record. Like others have said, I wouldn't mind it so much if she was actually defending the belt (in feuds/matches that had any weight to them, as well).

I don't mind anyone breaking Punk's record because it's basically a made up record to put him over at the time. He doesn't have near the longest reign in history, just within a certain window of history. Despite my hatred of "CM Punk" chants during women's matches, I am actually a big fan and wish him luck in UFC. I just don't care about his record.

I mean Santino level comedy. Rusev deserves much better.

If they go that route with him he's pretty much done. In the past 20 yrs only 3 guys have been able to recover from that kind of booking. Kane, Big Show, and Mark Henry all got saddled with stupid comedic gimmicks only to come back as strong monster heels later, and in each of those instances they only got to monster heel runs after missing time due to injury.

WWE should be like LU, a television series about a pro wrestling company. LU is what WWE thinks they are but not.

I think Trips would may be willing to go this route and wouldn't be surprised if he's a fan of Lucha Underground. I guess we'll eventually see Vince finally retires or passes away.

I see HHH going the NWA/JCP route with WWE once he takes over.

That's just the ending of season 1. It's not like it's on the El Rey YT channel listed as "Season 2 Trailer".

Read that already and it's likely out of context. I mean I've seen people in high school make "racist jokes" to each other or about others yet still have no problem with other people. Either way, I'm all about giving people the benefit of the doubt in any situation until info with more context comes about.

I remember an issue in the early 2000s came out where on some old old tracks from Eminem's teen years, Eminem said some pretty questionable stuff in a song called "Foolish Pride" about Black girls and it apparently had something to do with some ex girlfriend that he was only with for a cup of coffee out of anger and most close to him said he was never racist.

Nonetheless, posting something like that on twitter or responding to some moron posting things like that is dumb since the Internet's memory(from a data standpoint) never diminishes.

Only the beginning is from S1's ending and rest is new stuff I haven't seen before. What's the video titled on the El Rey channel?

I'm not sure how you missed that. The whole thing was aired on August 5th. It's old footage.

I saw the season on youtube and so I probably missed it with other promotional videos.
