I hope the pushes for black wrestlers leads to Miz, Hornswoggle, CM Punk and HHH jobbing to these black wrestlers.

John Cena is already WWE's most popular black star Yeah but he couldn't get over in black face.  That being said, I'm really starting to like Shad and his new gimmick.  Joke would be a lot more effective if your image worked |

I like how the dirtsheet worded that: "get in another quick season before SmackDown moves".

Totally agree. Ezekiel jackson has the look, size, power, and ability to be a great star.
I really hope he gets better so he can continue his rise.
As for the other African American Superstars in line for a push, MVP has had what it takes to main event since day 1. WWE just hasnt used him correctly. I see great potential in Shad, and i have mixed feelings on Kofi. Kofi has great talent but comes off a little to "Jolly" for his own good.
As far as JTG, I doubt WWE will use him and he will more than likely be let go in the near future.

I'm a little surprised to see the lack of love for JTG. I really like this guy and thinks he's got some potential. Now I'm not saying he's going to headline Wrestlemania or anything like that, but I could easily see some US or IC titles in his future.
Still praying for Shelton to return.

MVP was always a main event player waiting to happen. I will never forgive WWE for what they've done to his character. Losing streaks, crappy tag team with Mark Henry wearing his jumpsuit, zero push with the face turn, and all of a sudden he's a "humble ex con"? Whatever happened to the bottle poppin more money than you gimmick? I don't get it. What is there excuse for MVP not being the highest paid athlete on Smackdown now? He has the perfect gimmick and they're not letting him do it. This is all WWE's fault and their lack of ability to build new stars. They're not allowing him to break out. He never even got a chance apart from his 2007 United States Championship run, and he excelled at that.

They continue to drop the ball even lower by even thinking about bringing Shelton back- why even bring his hopes up?

Zeke needs to get healthy and start Dominating fools again. That's the true answer. Until that time, Kofi and Shad are my top 2 picks for pushes. Shad is finally getting back to the gimmick he had in FCW. It's been so long since he did something other than act like the "sterotypical black guy" that it will take some time to get that rhythm again. Fire JTG and I'll be happy. FIRE HIM??!! He's one of the best workers on the roster. |

He's one of the best workers on the roster. Fire him may have been harsh, but he needs to lose the gimmick. It's such a negative stereotype of my people. At one point Cryme Tyme and MVP were the only African Americans in the WWE and both of their gimmicks were the typical media portrayal of every Black male in the country. He might as well wear a white tuxedo and start doing the soft shoe for a bucket of chicken and watermelon. |
