I would imagine that Bianca vs Jade is the destination match and this is the beginning of that story.

It's funny, because I recently saw a Youtube video about the history of black people in WWE, and boy, it sure made it feel like Swerve's organic rise to the top could never, ever have happened in the fed.

If you're talking about FD Signifier's video, I'm gonna link it because it's good

Lil Bill also did a bit of a rebuttal video where talks a bit more about black wrestlers outside of the WWE and has a different take on The Rock being black

I like it when non-wrestling youtubers talk about wrestling

Okay, I’ll bite: what’s the ~*~*~story~*~*~ behind Jade, Naomi, and Bianca teaming? Is it just Creative thinking “gently caress we don’t have anything for these women to do for Mania”?

The point is that WWE is still doing the thing where all the wrestlers of the same ethnicity get lumped together in a stable

It's so lazy and lovely

I'm reminded of one of the only times wwe ever had a storyline involving multiple factions with multiple poles of interest, but it was all explicitly race gang wars like a hack prison movie or something

they had the nazi twins in the white guy stable so that checked out

Antifa vs blm isn’t even how it happens in the real world, they would have needed to put a third group of like the Viking experience, Dexter Lumis, and Jerry lawler to represent the proud boys but Vince would never let them get fuckstomped like they deserve

You mean that moment that they would frequently show as one of the funniest WWE moments of all time and everyone found it hilarious and no-one found it offensive whatsoever* and the only actually entertaining part of it was the person not in blackface or in D-X?

*Several people found it offensive.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.

I do not enjoy his wrestling in any form but he at least is extremely happy to be a smiling face on media outlets, a good hire in a company that always needs people to go to good morning (local market) and shake hands
