If they had not charged full whack for AEW:FF, they could have got away with it being what it was.
there is lack of north korean talent and no north korean champion
Ok so, I want Melo vs ford for a title.
I loved fight forever, but yep. Lacking content. Let's also talk about how wwe has released games with characters before they changed too. But aew needed more modes, more options on release. Dlc was fine to release cuz it's a fighting game. That's how they do. They just gotta do better next time. I want the new game to be similar in gameplay, but with more. I still play it
I understand the whole black singles men on PPVs, but we can't say black people haven't been featured. R-Truth, New Day, Bianca, and Jade immediately come to mind.
WWE got a lack of Asian Male Wrestlers in general. If anyone has the right to be upset about the lack of race and representation in WWE, it's us Asian people. 🤷♂️
@@yuLikeRice made the same point but got shut down by the division police 🤣
Roman Reign is technically Asian
the skin color of the talents on the main roster is not an issue at all the only issue is even bringing it up. when a black male talent gets over and gets a compelling storyline behind them they will have those spots. with the amount of black talent coming up in NXT right now, IF you want to bother making this a issue i really don’t think it will be in a few years.
for me though skin color means nothing just talent and charisma, whoever has those deserves to be in the top spots, it’s as simple as that.
With the abundance of black male talent on NXT, I’m sure we’ll see this change over the next few years. Really interested to see what the main event scene looks like 5 years from now.
There's currently 3 african american world champions, another non white with Jey, Oba in NXT, if we want to count the speed champ thats another foreign champ, Trick was also recently champ.
Idk man I think people are being given opportunities don't know what this is about...
What are the 3 world championship that are black? ...cause nxt is a Canadian lol Cody is a uh oh oreo doesn't truly count lol and Gunther is definitely not black lol nic nemeth is Champ in tna he definitely wonder breaded up lol aew is Brian lol so what 3 world champions you talkin bout lol
@@eppieblanks4680 womens World tag team champs and cody :)
Main roster-wise. It's been rough since Triple H took over. Not specifically for diversity as a whole. But as they reported, black males have been minimized significantly. Most notably Bobby Lashley and The SP.
Lashley was a world champion, then a mid-card champ, now out of the company. And the The Profits haven't been relevant since they're titles became apart of The Usos/Blooine story last year. Now they just get fed to the Tongans on a weekly basis.
I guess, overall the point is that there's room to grow. While NXT's fine, Triple H doesn't book that show anymore, so he's not gonna receive any of the credit for those moves.
@@MrMajesticMajesty rofl Cody don't count lol second tag Champs count as 1 championship not 2 lol
How many on-screen black people work for Cultaholic? Seems problematic.
Oh god here we go... 🙄
It's everyday. I'm not white and I'm tired of it.
They're going to address the issue? So we have to assume any future black champion has been gifted the title because of their skin color instead of earning it with talent.
In fairness there definitely could be more but at the same time Melo is getting featured every week in a big series every week, Xavier Woods is going through a big story development, Apollo Crews has gotten back to back wins and Jade and Bianca are tag champs and featured very prominently.
Odyssey Jones being a scumbag and Bobby Lashey leaving done no favours either as well as Big E’s injury there’s some bad luck in there too.
The good thing about Big E is he might be cleared to compete soon. He hasn't but all signs are pointing to him being cleared.
Great job naming the 4-6 black people featured in a company of hundreds! Wow!
@@hotspot171do you know any other black people prominent enough to be pushed over the likes of Bron, Sami, Jey, Gunther etc. Trick has potential but is far too green.
@@cubeddoubled1543 the problem is literally in the question you’re asking. Wwe doesnt develop their black talent enough for anyone to feel like they are as prominent as those you mentioned they have constantly undermined most of them until like last year. Plus there is clearly a numbers advantage so of course there would be more examples of non black superstars that are featured more prominently. Can we use logic here?
@@hotspot171 WWE is a business, why would they put focus on say Angelo Dawkins who is a good performer but stagnant in merch sales and crowd reaction over a younger Bron Breakker, who in less than six months is more over than a large majority of the roster. If fans don’t react it or buy merch WWE won’t push simple as that.
With how much they feature Bianca and the obviously huge plans for Jade I don't see why this would really be a race issue.
This problem will self correct as Carmelo continues to do his thing and as Trick and Oba Femi make their way to the main roster.
I will say that they dropped the ball with Bobby's last year there though.
Bobby *AND* The Street Profits... AND Cedric Alexander... AND B-Fab... AND Asante Thee Adonis... AND EVEN R-Truth.
Letting Bobby leave without a WrestleMania 1v1 match the last 2 years was dumb, especially when beforehand Brock jobbed him like a small guy when he’s bigger than Brock. Then we got Brock / Omos instead lol.
The Bianca run has had ups and downs she had a long run but losing in almost record time to Becky damaged her character permanently, the women’s tag division is a mess tbh all of the tag divisions are currently a mess and a heel turn from one of them is so obvious it’s a for gone conclusion (could still be good if done right though). Black and Latino talent right now are either supporting cast or undercard and it’s not from a lack of talent. I’m hoping they do something with the people they currently have on the roster rather than waiting to call up more people The New Day are doing something, Melo’s doing something, Cedric’s still with the company and idk where he is same as Ashante, The Profits you could still have a singles run and be in a tag team WWE will never understand that logic for whatever reason, Naomi’s kinda spinning her wheels a bit. Idk it just still feels off center of what we should be seeing.
Brock and omos was a punishment to Brock from hunter for the way he acted on the first vince exit. And since when has anyone cared about Cedrick Alexander or bfab at all? Now Bobby and the profits is the only actual argument for right now. As for Bobby not being at mania one opponent was bray and those problems led to brays death
NXT has great representation. At WM almost all titles went to Hispanic wrestlers so why are people complaining? Why isn't the NBA worrying about white, Hispanic or Asian representation?
@@smellywaffels1967 that's because of the top players currently in the NBA are either European, African, Canadian or LeBron James lol then there's the Gasol Brothers who are Hispanic & Brook Lopez. Meanwhile in MLB is currently dominated by Hispanics & Asians 🤷🏾♂️
This has always been about talent, skill and ability. This has nothing to do with colour. The people calling this out, are the ones who are racist. Their point of reference and centre of their world is being politically correct, which is a really sad life to live.. because if you're so cut up about storytelling and situations that are out of your control then you should probably look into that and find out why you feel a need to control that
And the skin color of performers is important for what reason exactly?
WWE is more diverse now than it's ever been. Demanding token representation is disgusting for all involved.
Typically, mcmahon follower thing to say.
@@Payaso_M13so you think tokenization of minorities is a good thing?
@clyde-s-wilcox the tokenism is literally already the problem so what are you talking about???
@@Payaso_M13 these wwe fans are hella racist it’s no coincidence all the black superstars end up leaving the company
How is being aware how talent in a global company being booked = demanding token representation?
Where anywhere was it said people want the wwe to hire or make someone the designated black guy who wins ppv matches?
Using words you don't even understand...
Changing devs doesn’t surprise me with how the roadmap has been so far. Initial features that were promised were not there at launch and added later so from that perspective it makes sense. The DLC is too expensive and the base game has been practically being given away.
Fight forever had less matches than a ps2 wrestling game
When's the last time they had an Asian male world champion or Asian males in ple wins. Just saying
Who tf comes up with these topics? "Lack of Black Male Talent on main roster" ppv/ple? The draws and the crowd favorites should be in the main roster ppv/ple. The color does not matter. Any type of fan will always favor quality over equality.
Monte’s Vontavius Porter?
So just to be clear, the "Issue" is that the black stars that are competing and winning on the PLVs are not male?
Have we ever thought about maybe some of these black wrestlers are just not that good? Yes I'm a black guy myself but I never found the new day to be that talented
so sick of the garbage infecting every aspect of life. let the best wrestlers wrestle.
I’m sorry, but it has nothing to do with race. If fans are this upset about it, buy their merchandise and show interest in their characters. Why are you going to feature people who aren’t over and aren’t moving merchandise? Nothing to do with someone’s skin, absolutely ridiculous. The world has gone insane with this PC crap
This man says this as if HHH vs Booker T didn’t happen, this man acting like we didn’t just see the Vince doc with the all black and sometimes underaged “ring boys” , mana acting like WWE didn’t drop the ball with Bobby twice 😂 keep crying thin skinned whitey , but you support trump too 🤡
He can book the black wrestlers better then
@@jdog7673he can't even book a good show with the established top card, he's not gonna do any better when he has to start focusing on race pandering
Has everything to do with race. Black people are expected to support non-Black merchandise, but it is never reciprocated. Target or any retail store proves my point because the Black character merchandise is always on clearance. Lashley's life achievements were undeniable, so WWE was forced to push him as a main eventer, and unlike Brock Lesnar, they still made him lose to inferior talent. Carmelo Hayes was pushed to be the next premiere talent but since putting him on Smackdown, he has lost matches and needed to cheat to win. The answer here is that Vince McMahon had his problems, but he was fairer than Nick Khan and HHH, a man who would never count the lights for a Black wrestler even if they had an impeccable record. If you say the Rock, I am going to layeth the smacketh down on you because he is Canadian/Samoan.
@@Steven-cf1ty Oh please, WWE is doing great rn
It has nothing to do with race, it's about who looks like a star/somebody and presentation. Trick and Oba will be top stars when they move to Raw/SD.
Bobby Lashley never stopped looking like a star
@@swagglikebillyjoel I've commented on numerous videos saying similar about Bobby.
Unless it was personal choice, WWE did F up not keeping him. Even at this late stage, he has name value and something to offer.
This is false.
I'm quite old compared to many fans, but I remember Cena coming in. He was liked, then pushed to the moon, then HATED relentlessly by everyone over 15 years old. They continued to push.
My point is that they can push literally anybody. They appear to only be pushing white men or the bloodline right now. Why? Who knows. They ate giving karrion screen time no literally no ROI.
@@swagglikebillyjoel Charisma vacuum. Love his work but the guy can't cut a promo for shit.
Oba is Nigerian which is different than Black. Based on what WWE has done to Carmelo Hayes on the main roster, I highly doubt Trick Willie has a shot. At least Hayes was able to successfully defend his titles in NXT. Williams has been a transitional champion every time.
The Rock main evented Wrestlemania night 1. He is half black. His father is the first black champion in WWE history. That's the last PLE match with a male black wrestler.
As a black man I don’t or never thought it was a race thing. I think we gotta have black talent in position to fill those roles and we don’t have that right now. We don’t have any black Bron Breakkers or Roman Reigns at the moment. I think guys like Melo and Trick will get to those rolls and the Obi guy down in NXT now can definitely become a main event star but we have to wait till that develops. Nobody wants to see Apollo Crews in a main PPV right now just cause he is black.
Yea. Oba and je'von will be future stars on the main roster. Don't want to rush them just yet.
@@EmberMcLain87 agreed. I forgot about the Young OG. I just recently got on to him when he was in 4 way for the title
People just like to whine. Especially the "special" ones, while they conveniently forget that Jade/Bianca are tag champs, the most decorated WWE tag teams are black/Samoan with The New Day and Usos, Woods and Kofi are currently heavily featured on RAW with their story and woods has a IC title match, Melo is featured on Smackdown with Andrade and L.A.Knight, Oba is NA champ, Trick is again in the NXT title match, Je'von was put in a match with Orton for the swap to the CW network, Kelani Jordan is NA Women's champ, Nia is one of the Women's single champs (or is she not black enough as a Samoan?). And then they also ignore all the latino and japanese talent that is also on the roster.
@@DarkSun123456789 I’m with you overall which is why I don’t believe it’s about race. But I do think the article was specifically taking about black men on main roster not featured in the latest PPV events which if you look at the card is true. But again with the caveat to me of there is not any black wrestlers on male side that is ready for those spots at this time. The future will be different
Careful. Those kinds of statements anger the white liberals.
I can't believe Stadium Stampede was a dlc for the game instead of it's own standalone release.
Free to Play Stadium Stampede Battle Royale might not have saved the game, but it likely would've performed a lot better. Especially since the only other wrestling battle royal, Rumbleverse, had recently been taken down, leaving a massive wrestling battle royal shaped void AEW could've filled.
I’m black. I don’t care. Just let it go
Said no black person ever we know you a white boy
I'm white but I do care , don't just let it go
I’m white and I don’t care! I agree with the man that said he’s black and doesn’t care!
@@harijha7560 why it doesn’t affect you? If a black guy doesn’t care why should I or you?
@@harijha7560 Pretty sure we of the black delegation have first call on what to let go when it comes to black representation issues.
Hate to be that guy too but this seems to be a narrative especially pushed by AEW people who conveniently ignore the fact Swerve is the only black talent to main event a pay per view despite all the talented black wrestlers on the male and female rosters.
Do you believe any of the other black talent on the AEW roster should've main evented a PPV thus far minus Swerve? Swerve's main evented four times and he's been stellar each time- especially against Ospreay, Danielson and Hangman.
Wild how someone as green as Brit Baker was given a world title on AEW but a proven veteran lol Athena was not…
No disrespect or anything, but It is interesting that how WWE handles their black talent for the PPVs as a talking topic, yet isn't AEW in a similar situation as well since isn't Swerve the only black talent that wrestles on like every AEW PPV or at least most of them?
@@Jamieb1994 how do most white people view Swerve Strickland be completely honest
@@thegreatestshowonearth7623boring, no character/gimmick, zero charisma, just a collection of racial stereotypes and trends
Are they really racist when the female talent is majority poc?
People make everything about race it's exhausting, not booking people doesn't equal racism for god sake
Wrong as usual.
@@soulweaponx6644 why ?
@@soulweaponx6644 So you’re supposed to book none white wrestlers even if they are crap 😂
@@raymonddouglas1222 There are already crappy white wrestlers who were booked strong throughout the years. My argument is for Black Americans like Montez Ford who can cut a promo and put on a good show that are currently being overlooked. Keith Lee's 1st run in WWE was strong and then they gave him a stupid gimmick then laid him off. MVP should have been booked the equivalent to a Ric Flair with guys around him to protect him. I can go on and on but nobody who can change this will be reading my comment.
How many black employees does Cultaholic have?has anyone made them “aware” of this?
Good point 🤔
@@jcking1990 None of the wrestling channels have minorities. Speaking to UK people online I'm not surprised. They aren't the most accepting people.
Cultaholic need to have this "conversation".
Does cultaholic have a history of doing black employees a disservice or is it wwe? Trips is not going to sleep with you lil bro
@@nalday2534 a disservice? Has Cultaholic ever hired a person of colour? It’s a ridiculous video with a ridiculous title.
And you can make an argument without wanting to sleep with someone in power.
Used to love Cultaholic. Fucking Woke nonsense
what about the lake of japanese male talent ?
We're not talking about them right now. Don't do that.
That's right only focus on the minority you want us to right? @dapac09
@@sjsjsIIIIIIIIIIndndnjdhdhx nope. We're just not talking about the japanese talents right now. I think the real question you should ponder is that why can't black folks complain without the implication that somehow by merely us doing so, were silencing other races? Hmm? Because black folks complaining somehow denigrates the asian wrestlers, right?
@@sjsjsIIIIIIIIIIndndnjdhdhx the problem with folks like you is the division you always try to sow between POC's. It's gross and disingenuous.
@@sjsjsIIIIIIIIIIndndnjdhdhx lastly, unless you are indeed japanese, who the hell are you to speak on behalf of them anyways? Go sit down!
Really annoys me that this whole "race" thing is even coming up. The requirements are so picky it's stupid.
When was the last Japanese male wrestler featured in a PLE?
When was the last Asain Male wrestler?
When was the last British Male Wrestler?
Stop making it so specific and just understand that having people just for the sake of filling a quota isn't healthy.
I agree 💯
Hard agree - I don't like the title of this video either as it is perpetuating that same notion.
Being aware that certain demographics are not being represented is good. That's all it is. IT actually seems like you guys are making the bigger deal out of it than it is, and it sort of gives us what kind of character you are as well.
Pro wrestling has gone through the ringers with rampant racism and bigotry. Now that companies are aware of this, and trying to do better, yah'll are grasping your white hoods.
@@RageyRage82 couldn't be further from the truth. This is them crying racism when there isn't.
Jade and Bianac are hosting badblood. Have featured in many PLEs both as single and tag team... yet because it's not men it doesn't count...
@@MadHatterJimmy they really did not say it was racism, as they do not suspect it is intentional. It just goes to show how you do not listen, because you have the privilege of the benefit of the doubt.
It is simply being proactive. Just goes to show how very unaware, and ignorant you, specifically you, and all the others whining about it, are.
You are racist. Simple as that.
Oba Femi main roster debut incoming.
Give.... me....a.... break.....
I hate that people now have to bring race into every issue it seems. Look it doesn’t matter what race you are in wrestling it’s all about dollars. If you aren’t gonna draw big money and have people talking then what’s the point in pushing them
I would hide under the table if Suzuki was nearby too 😂
Suzuki is a scary mf lol.
F representation. Skill should be what these performers are "judged" by, not race.
Calm down racist
This. Not trying to be racist but a good % of NBA Players are black. It’s not an equality thing, its just that they are the best at the profession.
But one can argue that you have to be a "skilled performer" to be a part of the WWE's main roster right? 🤔
Representation matters but not shovel down people throats.
Average insecure and sensitive right winger. Listen buddy, some people don't like seeing vanilla dudes on their TV 24/7 not to mention the lack of personalities and variety that inherently brings
another non issue made up by bored internet wrestling "fans"
Those are what we like to call smarks.
People who make this stuff up aren't even real fans
exactly they’re “fans” when it’s just people that want to cry to be a victim 😂
It's never an issue to white people who constantly see their own featured on TV on a weekly basis
@@Handsome_Black You all do as well. Black talents are doing relatively well. What's the problem here? Should they have every single championship at once? Should we fire everyone in the promotion who isn't black? What do you want?
"Aware" of a "lack"
This is so trash. Box checking spreadsheet progressive crybabies make me wanna scream
FEBRUARY RUMBLE ?
You Can't Be Serious Jeff
Being dumped by WWE, having so much criticism from AEW & the terrible quality of their last few games should be the death of Yuke's.
I love that 90% of fans are just enjoying good wrestling no matter what color or race a person is and of course there have to be people obsessing over race trying to create a problem that isn't really there.
How many African employees does cultaholic have? Please take a look at yourselves
Hold on for a minute let's not go crazy they're just reporting the news
Everyone in this comment section is acting like there’s no good black talent. Montez, Melo and Trick are so good. They have the opportunity to push these guys to the moon
So we just ignoring Carmello Hayes and The Street Profits now? also give it time and Trick Williams, Oba Femi and others from NXT will fill out spots on the main roster.
Carmelo has not been in a 1-on-1 match on any PLE in 2024. He was in the Rumble and Money in the Bank, and that's it. Street Profits have been in some tag and multi-man matches but not singles like the video outlined. Trick and Oba will probably be ignored once they make the main roster like everyone else. Heck, Trick was replaced by Ethan Page the second he was available.
@@KidMarquisDelToro and trick has the belt again, he was never "replaced"
As a person of color myself i notice there was more black world champs including women when vince was in charge of wwe . so does that mean he should be brought back. Iam sure women , the media and most men would say no. Aew has had a black world champ for a few month and people are acting like wwe never had one.
You ever thought about maybe some of these male wrestlers who are black it's just not that good.
I'm going to be honest the only two black talent I'm interested in is Jay Cargill in Bianca Bel-Air.
There’s a Samoan dynasty at the top of the card or does it have to be darker skin wrestlers specifically? Nia Jax, Roman Reigns, the New Blood line, Jey Uso is now IC champ. Move Trick up to the main roster if you want to tick boxes but we’ve seen a ton of talent at the top of the card and that’s the key word. No one is holding down top “talent” regardless of ethnic origin. So show me talent for the top of the card because if Bobby Lashley is a benchmark I’ll show you a Trick Williams who trumps Bobby in terms of promo ability and in ring (2024) ability.
Samoan's are probably not b enough. One guy further up even said Oba Femi doesn't count, cause he is Nigerian and that's "different" than b.
LMFAO.
Damn are there alot of concerning comments under this vid. No, black talent aren't on PLEs because they haven't deserved it, they are just not being built up. The hurt business was such a great stable and they gave up on them. Swerve is another obvious example of WWE failing to pull the trigger on.
This will not change.
If I may go full "soulless businessman" for a moment here, sometimes racial issues ARE financial issues. In wrestling as in most forms of entertainment, Black audiences are more likely to tune in for Black performers. The same is true of Hispanics, Japanese, and so on. Gross oversimplification: diverse roster = larger audience = more money. So as dedicated wrestling fans who are going to be tuning in regardless, we might roll our eyes at this, but from a business angle, I get why WWE higher-ups might feel like this is a relevant topic.
Yeah right stop to tell you the truth black people do not give a damn if the wrestler is black or white as long as he's good on the mic and he got good wrestling moves that's all we care about.
I do not understand where is this whole we want more Black talent so it's bad that WWE is not highlighting this argument coming from.
The only black talent I like the most was too cold Scorpio.
@@attiepollard7847 No, Black *wrestling fans* don't care whether the wrestler is Black or White or whatever else so long as they're good. Neither do White wrestling fans, Hispanic wrestling fans, Japanese wrestling fans, and so on.
But I'm not talking about wrestling fans.
I'm talking about the "casuals" who like it or not always have and always will constitute the bulk of the wrestling economy. The sort of people who, for example, haven't watched a moment of AEW programming since Jade Cargill's last match there -- Jade Cargill who, let's be clear, is not very good on the mic or in the ring, but is a Black woman with a good look and substantial social media presence who was booked strongly. WWE did not have wrestling fans in mind at all when they gave her a big money offer to jump ship; they were thinking of all the Black and/or female casuals she'd bring with her.
@@MarkieDood for some reason Tony Khan got pressure from some rapper saying that why isn't there no black representation in aew so they had to put the belt on Cargill. Now that was some bs. Now I'm really starting to believe that swerves Strickland is a affirmative action champion. As for Cargill in WWE I don't even think they were even thinking about the casual fans. I think that they were thinking about that they made her offer the last time and they think that she got better so they can make her more better in WWE.
In the next 5 years, health and development willing, Oba Femi will be a main roster world champion and a face of the company.
I can speak on the lack of Black Talent. But everybody's way too sensitive.
maybe it’s not the developers fault maybe putting fucking omega in charge of your game was the fuck up
People are stupid. Your race doesn't matter. If you can put on good matches and move merch, you tend to be on ppvs. If not, then you're probably not on ppvs. It's that simple.
Skin colour doesn’t matter what maters is your ability to he good enough to be in the main spot
If you’re good, you’re good. If you’re entertaining, you’re entertaining.
It has literally NOTHING to do with the color of someone’s skin. Pushing narratives like this are actually kind of shit and it’s annoying AF. If we’re really concerned about it then we’d also be upset about the lack of Asian, middle eastern, Native American, and many other talent. But we aren’t.
Cause it only ever matters when it's about black. Yet nobody talks about who commits the most crimes against asians in the US.
The fact that people need to look up these stats is sad. So people should be featured just because of their skin color?
Sounds to me the black males on the main roster need to step up. NXT is almost all black males now. It’s not a race issue it’s a talent issue Carmelo Hayes is phenomenal and I love watching him every week and i wanna see him take that US title and become the top of the company and he’s working his way to it. Hell the new day doing the woods turn slowly is just phenomenal
Yet nobody complains about the lack of Chinese, Indian, Native American, Inuit or any other race. What makes Africans so special?
That's always my point. Despite what people say, diversity is very important but why does it only apply to black people? No one ever mentions any other race.
Hopefully they dont try to push someone who isn't ready (hayes) as a bandaid
The Bad Blood card is very diverse and that's a good thing. You've got multiple talent from different backgrounds and nationalities. Rhea is Australian, Priest is of Puerto Rican dissent. Finn Balor is Irish, Drew is Scottish. Nia Jax, Roman, Solo and Fatu are Samoan and the hosts of the show are black women. I don't see an issue. Nobody should be judged by the colour of their skin, only judged by what they bring to the table for WWE. Rewards in wrestling should be given on merit.
I’m black…. Idgaf.
Give me a damn story, it’ll soon be time for the likes of Trick and Carmello ❤
NXT have some of the most promising talent I’ve ever seen in years who are white, black, latino, Samoan…. Give praise to Shawn Michaels.
Trick, the guy who was jobbed out to Ethan Page, or Carmelo, the guy who has not had a singles match on any 2024 PLE?
Oh good, affirmative action to PLEs.
Too bad the 2 biggest NA wrestling companies can’t get along. Imagine a football style loan system, where AEW and WWE could loan superstars out for a certain amount of time. Imagine a Swerve to WWE
And someone like, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton or even Roman Reigns spend some time in AEW before going back. Kinda similar to the Joe Hendry ( 👏🏼 👏🏼 👏🏼) contract
Here that all you Rumblers. The only winner has to be black 👍🏻…..dammit I put up the thumbs up emoji 😱how racist of me 🤣
They shouldnt change developers, the game just needs more polish. Thats everyones main concern, how the game looked and the glitches are what people's main complaints were
The thing about the Fight Forever game is it's very limited & to me, it's just one of those games where I don't see myself playing for hours, but only playing if I wanna kill some time. I also find the controls for the game complicated as well.
Luckylike 733! Superclickparty on that 👍 cultahollikerz! 👊 ✌️
It's not yukes fault Kenny can't over see good games lol jus because your a gamer head doesn't mean you should be overseeing a video game lol some ppl are players and some are developers and there is a tiny few that are both and sorry Kenny you are not one who can do both lol
If this woke obsession with race bleeds into pro wrestling, I'm taking a hiatus.
Lots of racist take sin the comment section, very sad to see. I was hoping that Carmelo, Andrade and La Knight 3 way at Bad Blood, Carmelo is getting a lot of TV time and push, so he's the main one to feature right now,. Then we gonna have Trick Williams coming up. Lets hope Triple H gives them the treatment they deserve.
Let’s have GameMill make AEW, could have a JPG of Tony Klown as a boss
AEW should work with Capcom or Bandai Namco for their next game. Something out of the box.
Royal Rumble for the WWE Championship so Cody can get 3 Rumble wins in a row
Are Cultaholic "aware" of lack of black talent (or just talent) on its little shows?
Green is the only color that matters in business.
Oh it was lovely, lovely, lovely to hear King Ross say WWF not WWE...
Pat McAfee will be at the Royal Rumble, I'm sure of it!
Since there are 6 wrestlers on the poster both Roman and Cody are in the middle.
I love your victim complex!!!
Anything could look racist when there’s people concerned about inclusion.
Everyone with an issue in these comments represent a represented demographic 😂 let all fans enjoy the show IT'S FREAKIN SCRIPTED so if the next scripted champion happens to be black let's all enjoy in the moment. There's only been 6 (SIX) I think there's room for more 🤦🏾♂️
WWE pushes Black wrestlers (typically men) as bafoons and comedy acts. Example: R-Truth and the New Day. Truth is a fucking jester. The New Day, while a great team, have been presented as the smiling, happy-go-lucky babyfaces for the past 10 years. Nobody really takes R-Truth seriously, and probably never will. And nobody takes New Day seriously as WHC or Undisputed Championship material. So, unless WWE hire someone new and push them to the moon, this will be a problem for years to come
Even if they become Champion the fans are just going to be complaining that they're boring like they calling Cody Rhodes boring.
Man the fan base is a bunch of b****** and should not be listening to whatsoever
I need a multiple streams of Tom playing sonic games please!!
Hold & Give is back! That’s just some solid news.
WWE really does need to have representation for others as champion it helps gets fans invested and stuff when they can see someone who is like them and that it could be them one day should people be rhis worried about it no but still
No they don't. If a wrestler is not good on the mic or don't get a good move that we like they should not be champion.
And I'm the same guy who don't like new day because they suck
Danielson vs Okada is gonna be awesome!
Aew should go the route of Tekken. A 3D fighter that's wrestling would go pretty hard
Omg just wouldn't look right
Wwe has always had this problem.
Ok, STOP with that narrative right in its tracks please 😂
Translation: we’re going after Hobbs
Seriously, how did Yukes botch the game? They have been making wrestling games forever!
Probably due to a developer swap, loss of talent, limited budget, ETC.
First iff all there is plenty. Second colour does not matter. Americans ALWAYS focus on the wrong issue. Ffs. Get a better education system.
the lack of black female hosts in cultaholic is extremely worrying
They had Lashley, probably the only black main eventer to have a gimmick that wasn't just racial stereotypes
How do you spell that H G team?
