Is thinking someone wearing a turban is automatically muslim (wtf) less racist than giving Jinder Mahal this dumb gimmick?

How can anyone give wwe the benefit of doubt on any semblance of subtlety? Do you really think the date of the angle was a coincidence?

SpiritOfSanDimas posted:Im not sure why you guys are upset about the Jinder Mahal thing, I didn't see it on Raw so I watched it on youtube. He had a hindu gimmick. It in no way, coded or otherwise, referenced 9/11 unless you associate Indian people with it for some reason. He didn't even seem to play heel in the match Obviously Swagger's gimmick has been being a real American for forever, but combine the way the two introductions contrasted each other with the fact that the crowd booed Mahal for being foreign and wearing a turban and the whole thing turns super offensive.

Sheik Abdul Bashir was his TNA name, and his entrance video featured U.S. landmarks (which of course I can't find a clean version on YT). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBluf_YzRg4 Here's a video of his entrance, with audible plane crash.

Thoughts and questions Is Asuka good? I want her to be called up soon as I recall she was good in Japan. Paige oh little girl fallen in love with a handsome older gentleman that I hope works out but will end in tears. It's a compelling story that the WWE should capitalize on. Lovers who will not let evil Vince tear them apart, etc.

I want her to be called up soon as I recall she was good in Japan. have you seen anything in NXT, she's been pushed to being the Brock Lesnar of the women's division. she does strong style poo poo and kills people with kicks to the head, submissions, and flying rear end slams. she's real good and I can't wait for people like nikki storm, billie kaye, and ember moon to tangle with her.

Gatts posted:Is Asuka good? I want her to be called up soon as I recall she was good in Japan. She'll probably be coming up soon, they're building up Ember Moon to take the title from her because Ember Moon is some sort of Sailor Moon werewolf, which is about the power levels you need to stay in the ring with Asuka. If she's not called up before Wrestlemania, I expect her the next day.

As a goon who enjoyed the Star Wars/9-11 photoshops and tribute.avi and other 9/11 comedy and entertainment, I think Jindal should have a terrrorist gimmick. He would get the most heel heat ever.
