I mean, Rocky Maivia was always acknowledged as a 3rd generation superstar, son of Rocky Johnson etc. stuff.

They toned that down once he became big as The Rock, although JR would always bring it up.

They didn't say it because they embraced his whiteness they said it because they didn't want him to talk about black issues at all. it was a way of making their bigotry seem less bigoted.

Your original point was "I never heard anyone say that poo poo" in response to "Obama, etc isn't black" and I was refuting that. Now you're getting into the why and how and help where are the goalposts.

How is Randy Orton vs anyone a dream match anymore?

Edit: also going to AEW would require Orton to take a risk and he's not one for risks.

to be fair I couldn't even imagine orton outside of a wwe ring.

To clear things up I am not saying people weren't claiming Obama isn't black I just never heard someone dismiss him speaking on black issues by claiming he wasn't black.

I heard of people accusing him of being muslim and anti-white but never heard someone try to say he aint black not even to dismiss him because he's muslim how could he understand the blacks or anything along those lines then again I'm in nyc where people who didn't like Obama for his skin color said every other reason under the sun except his skin color.

I’m just saying, if someone linked a tweet itt that said ‘The Machine Gun Karl Anderson Is Better Than Randal Keith Orton’, that’d be an irrefutable fact unsuitable for this thread ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought that WWE wanting to break up tag teams would benefit Karl Anderson and get him a good singles run but instead they just didn't use him at all

It became obvious a few weeks ago that MeltzerSaidWhat had a connection to Elgin confidant and overall trash human being VicVenomBytes/ShootNameJustin.

The connection is that the account is run by Fray.

Fray and MeltzerSaidWhat have interacted. So either that means he’s pulling the ultimate loser move of replying to his own tweets with his alt, or his schizophrenia has finally moved out of the prodromal phase.

It’d be really cool if scoopsters and podcasters would stop retweeting and signal boosting that sack of poo poo.
