Too bad this won't ever happen. Or at least it will be met with a lot of contempt from the white audience because the truth hurts.

It was amazing. Miguel did a great job as well. The video was only a tiny part, all the real hype parts she didn't record because everyone was going crazy and dancing. Honestly didn't even realize Drake had that many hits, since he did his features as well.


Never realized how racist wrestling was/is.

Haha listening to the black guy who tips, they said Hollywood should do a found footage style slavery movie. About a slave on the run, lol I would serious fuck with that.

Racism in wrestling always seemed like something that just came w/ the territory. They dive headfirst into it rather than avoid it. I mean one of the most celebrated Raw moments on the DVD countdown is when DX dressed in blackface to mock the Nation of Domination. No way they'd do it now but I'd be lying if I said i didn't find it funny that they really went there.

I will say the thing about there never being a black WWE champion is weird to me. It never occurred to me that The Rock didn't count because he's mixed.

Well Mark Henry had the Big Gold Belt™ in the best run of his career, but he never had the belt people cared about so I guess you're right.

Even discounting the Rock, wasn't Booker T champion at one point? Not that it excuses anything.

One of those films you say, "Yep, that was masterful" and then never watch again. I walked out of that theater with a strange mix of sadness and just mad as fuck. Only sour note was Brad Pitt being all unconvincing and Brad Pitt-like in two scenes, but besides that...that was a hell of a movie.

booker T got fucking clownnnnnnnnnnnnnned when he was in his title run against HHH

isn't that the one where the whole feud was HHH being racist against Booker, saying people like him shouldn't be the champion and why didn't he dance or something, and then despite what you'd think from the setup, HHH won anyway and proved himself right?

ehhh maybe? I think it was 03ish when Booker was made a joke, won the title and still a joke

That might be it. I remember it being fucked up because he honestly never felt like he got "over" during any point of that angle.


Then again this is HHH, he said it himself he would bury anything to keep "hope" alive for WWE
