@Error1355

She's not a white person and it looks like she has two championships. So why is that a lmao-situation?

That still doesn't make sense because if you count the New Day (3), and Street Profits (2), that's 10 people

Also dumb to have Woods on here since he's been injured this entire tag run (unless he returned in the last couple weeks which I have not been watching)

Edit: maybe they are counting Keith Lee twice as North American and NXT Champion?

If there were two major US wrestling companies, there should maybe be 15 titles in total between them. Having Raw, Smackdown, and NXT brands is too much.

They have too big of a roster to not do that, though

the WWE is so behind the times and makes mistake after mistake. Their product, creativity, and leadership is shit-tier

About to ask a stupid question, but am asking in good faith.

Are Eastern Asians (like Japan, China, Korea) considered people of color? I understand they're called "yellow" sometimes, but their overall tone can be even lighter than white people's. Also, there are plenty of southerners called red necks, who quite literally have a reddish tint to their skin that makes them darker than East Asians. However, they're still considered white despite their reddish tint.

Edit:
Asking because Asuka is in that picture, and her skin tone is quite light. While I would never considered her white, I'm wondering if she's considered a person of color.

All tag champions count as a single person, and Keith counts as two since hes holding two singles championships.

Its Bayley as Womans champ (but not tag champ), Sasha as tag champ, Asuka, Io, New Day as one champ, Keith Lee as 2 champs because both are singles titles, Escobar, Truth, Apollo, and then Profits as 1 champ. 11 total

Yes she would be a person of color as well as the other East Asian woman next to her.

It's not so much about skin tone though. A black person can be lighter than a white person but they are still a person of color.

WWE is a racist company run by racists. That so many champions at one time are non white at a time where not being racist is seen as very important for public image is not a coincidence. It's not like this is a real sport. Top spots in wrestling have always been assigned based on politics and marketability

They are called rednecks because of the sunburn on the back of their necks.....I thought this was known....

1 World Champion
1 Tag Championship
1 Womens Tag Championship
1 US Title (Main Title of Raw)
1 IC Championship (Main Title of Smackdown(
1 NXT Championship (Main Title of NXT)
1 Womens Championship
1 Cruiserweight Championship

I don't suppose it would do any good to try and tell Vinnie Mac he can't literally buy pro wrestling itself.

It's the same mistake WCW made. They had over two-hundred wrestlers on the roster at the time they closed; over a hundred of which were never on television. They just kept buying wrestlers to try and keep them from the competition. Meanwhile, the WWE utilized what talent they had to the maximum potential and put out a far better product.

There's no way to realistically run a coherent show when you have every superstar under the sun. There isn't enough time to give them the individual focus they need. People simply aren't obsessed enough with wrestling to want to watch 6 to 8 hours of wrestling programming every week.

If Vince McMahon's top priority is preventing the threat of competition, he's running himself into the ground.

Looks like a bit of both. Bayley has a tan compared to her nxt days and wwe always shops images. Like when they put current Goldberg face on his 2004 body for his match with Undertaker.

How's that work when she is already brown skinned.

That's like saying a Latina/Latino person wearing dark makeup is wearing brownface

Now if all 15 were POC, then we would be getting somewhere.

They should also make up a POC specific title or series of titles as well.

Drew was always really tan. Go look at pictures of him back when he was IC champion

He just looks way different because of the beard. Certainly makes him look ten years older
