I like Zeke. He's solid in the ring, but there's still room for improvement. I'll admit that as a fan of his I do believe his Intercontinental Title run fell flat. A lot of that had to do with how he was booked though. They had him losing almost every week so how is the audience supposed to take him seriously? Especially when the guy is a beast! He's not bad as a face, but I truly believe that a guy like Zeke (for now) is meant to be a monster heel. I would actually love to see a fued between him and Cena over the WWE Championship (of course once Cena wins it back). It would be something fresh and would give Cena a legitimate threat to his title down the road. I'm hoping that creative can keep Ezekiel fresh over the next year until the draft (although it really doesn't matter at this point) so he can come back to Raw and become heel and go after whoever the WWE Champion is at the time pending they're face.

My God comparing him to Ahmed Johnson cause he's black and wears red trunks is getting annoying.
Zeke's alright, and he's been more entertaining of late than he ever was as the bodyguard of some shitty, scrawny, glorified jobber, or as one of William Regal's henchmen.
I think he's good for his size.

You know The Rock is Samoan right? And I would say R-Truth or Henry should be the first.

Please no. I just can't take him serious any time he speaks. Had he had a manager, a mouth piece like back in the day, he would have been a force.
I go with Truth being the first black WWE champ

If you can't even get into the building when you're IC Champion, who's gonna believe your WWE Champion?

IMO Zeke deseves it over Mark Henry. Mark Henry is honestly one of the worst wrestlers I've ever sen in my life.

Zeke won't ever be WWE Champion or World Champion.He's the type to get a huge push but lose when he gets a shot at top gold. Mark Henry is playing his role perfectly right now and he's had so many quotable trash talking lines the past months.He DESERVES to be World Champion and I hope he wins it. There's a conspiracy against R-Truth so he's definitely not gonna win the WWE Title... Black WWE/World Champions in WWE are very rare. R-Truth was more over than Del Rio for months and Del Rio is just now getting over because he's the WWE Champion and feuding with Cena. Burke was fine in the ring and on the mic but they kept him off TV for months and then released him. Tarver was good on the mic but they never pushed him solo and just showed him backstage a couple times and then released him. You know The Rock is Samoan right? Um, the Rock is Samoan not black. Total difference. His father is black.He's both.

LOL @ the Mark Henry love. He sucks and should never be World Champion. Some people in this business should just NEVER be above the upper mid-card - he is one of them. To say he deserves to be World Champion just because of how long he has been there is almost insulting to Roddy Piper, Jerry Lawler, Ricky Steamboat, William Regal (even though I don't think there was ever a real opportunity to pull the trigger with Regal) and so many others. Henry sucks and anyone who thinks he should be World Champion of the WWE must be silly, in my opinion.
*calms down and pops collar*
Anyway, Zeke sucks too.

Henry sucks and anyone who thinks he should be World Champion of the WWE must be silly, in my opinion. *calms down and pops collar* Anyway, Zeke sucks too. *Looks at your Sig* I actually think Mark Henry does deserve just 1 reign as World Champion, Not because hes been in the business for long but because he plays his role really good. He draws heat and is actually good on the mic, His in ring work was good years ago but for his size and age hes actually still good and Vince obviously sees something in Henry with all the pushes Henry has been getting in recent years. R Truth could become the 1st black WWE Champion, Ziek if he improves i wouldn't mind seeing him as World Champion but right now he sucks, I hate his torture rack and his non stop body slams and hes not that good on the mic, As for as the Rock goes he is half Samoan and half black so there still hasn't been a full black WWE Champion yet, Booker T was the 1st black World Champion but i still think either Kofi or Truth will become the 1st black WWE Champion, Henry could become the 2nd black World Champion. If you hate Henry so much, Have Christian cost Orton the Title at NOC, So instead of Orton getting his rematch at HIAC he could face Christian in a HIAC match at HIAC while Henry defends against Sheamus.

And a guy like Sheamus getting forced on fans in year 1 deserved to be WWE Champion? Sheamus' first push came way too early. I'll admit that. But hey, if you were offered a World Title reign would you say no? Of course not. Anyway, I remember after the first title win for Sheamus there was a thread about how the next night's RAW might be the lowest watched in history etc.. and all this speculation. Sheamus held his own as a nobody with the most prestigious belt in the company on the A show. He has now improved greatly and is actually more than ready for a third reign. Anyway, I didn't say Mark Henry sucks and that's that. I'm giving you my opinion. If you think Mark Henry is exciting or whatever, each to their own. Wrestling is supposed to be entertaining - it's an opinion based show. Don't make snide remarks just because I state my opinion.

Rock was the first. He may not be full on black like Zeke or Booker or Henry but he still is half African American so it counts. Technically he is also the first black World Champion in WWE as well because he held the World Title in late 2001 before it was unified with the WWF title and then later brought back in fall 2002. Sorry Booker.

Um, the Rock is Samoan not black. Total difference. He is HALF samoan HALF black. People don't know this by now? I think the point the OP was trying to make was the first full 100% black WWE champion which there has yet to be so far. To answer the question I'd rather see Truth win it. And like others have said, unless he switches shows, Zeke is on SD, with the World Title. Rock was the first. He may not be full on black like Zeke or Booker or Henry but he still is half African American so it counts. Technically he is also the first black World Champion in WWE as well because he held the World Title in late 2001 before it was unified with the WWF title and then later brought back in fall 2002. That was recognized as the WCW title though. The first WWE World Heavyweight Champion was Triple H when Bischoff gave it to him. So technically Booker is the first black World Heavyweight Champion.
