I was actually into Fozzy around 2002ish because I was a fan of the guitar player. Dude's a monster riffer.

Those days are long past. Still respect the guitar though.

someone that is actually serious about this crap posted:

“WWE, besides being obviously progressively sexist, is racist. Cena’s whole rapping gimmick was cultural appropriation, DX did blackface, The British Bulldog had dreadlocks (cultural appropriation), there was never a black WWE champion, WWE fans chanting the N word multiple times, pretty much every POC wrestler has mostly race/nationality based gimmick, and they’re also usually heels against a white face wrestler… It’s so bad that nobody ever calls them out on this stuff.”

Also Booker T doesn't either because he was on SmackDown.

I assume the same goes for Mark, here.

Big Coffin Hunter
Aug 13, 2005

Booker T and Mark Henry technically had the WHC and not the WWE title. Though, when Booker had it Raw and Smackdown were more on equal footing, and Booker T actually main evented PPVs as the champion so that technicality doesn't matter as much.

They retroactively count them as world championship reigns now, so there have been multiple black champions. Maybe not with the #1 title at the time, but the Big Gold version of the WHC was booked over the WWE title at PPVs quite a few times during the split and even switched to Raw multiple times.

this is exactly why i can agree that booker t counts while mark henry doesn't. the brand split was over when henry won the belt, and as much as wwe can try and tell me that henry, sheamus, del rio, bryan, and ziggler were major title holders when they had the whc it doesn't make it true when you have a belt that's firmly in the midcard

A case could still be made for Mark Henry because his win was immediately after the announcement of the split ending in 2011, and the WHC was still very much a Smackdown-exclusive for quite a while after. They certainly didn't book them on equal levels, but at no point did they ever state one was higher than the other. Even when Cena got the WHC for that brief period, when he challenged Orton he said "there are two world champions", and WWE counts his WHC run from a couple years ago as one of his Flair-tying title reigns.

The mod of TNAMecca almost rage-quit over it and is still pretty salty. It's fun to watch him reconcile this with the people who are still really positive about the company.

You don't have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero.
The whole foreign heel vs American face thing is so overdone by now that I was half of the opinion that Rusev was a massive parody of those types of heels. And then the Cena–Rusev feud just kept dragging on…
