If a homosexual wrestler was presented as a “joke” and appealed to all the lowest common denominator stereotypes, then I’m sure that the LBGTQ community would not openly embrace him/her on the basis of inclusivenss… But with that caveat, inclusiveness matters to a lot of people.
Also, take it easy with your attitude.
Your passive aggressive “are you confused by this?” comment while you were “being woke” and looking down on another poster’s post is what led to my “attitude” in response to it. Practice what you preach. 
Wow. You claim not to be racist and have grouped at. East Asians together.
How many Chinese origin champs are there?
Look at the list I sent - you have multiple world champs on their.
Don’t claim to be the most underrepresented minority out there.
In a perfect world, you should not have to claim anything, you should be included no matter what.
You don’t seem to have a clue what the word “representation” means…
You also don’t seem to have a clue what “racism” means if you think the term “East Asian” is racist… if anything it’s the opposite as usually people use the term “Asian” to refer to both East Asians and South Asians as if they’re both of the same racial background.
People pretending to be woke tripping over logic and common sense is a beautiful thing.
People claiming south Asians are the most underrepresented minority and bc you don’t like Jinder means you aren’t racist is equally stupid. There are way more mainland Chinese people in the world than anyone else and they don’t have many wrestlers on any main roster. You have a lot.
You seem to be confusing race and nationality. And I don’t even know what end of what stick you grabbed to come to the conclusion that I said I can’t be racist because I don’t like Jinder Mahal…!? You’ve been on this forum too long and are trying too hard to get offended. The point was that being a minority doesn’t necessarily mean you’re going to back a wrestler of that same minority or feel a sense of pride at their success. Especially if it’s just down to that one attribute. I don’t even know where you got confused.
Yes but that world doesn’t exist and ignoring the fact that people are excluded because “it shouldn’t matter.” Doesn’t make that true.
I have a hard time understanding why people can be so intolerant. I can’t understand why you would be excluded because of your sexuality. It’s mind boggling. I don’t care who you sleep with, it’s your life. But if that’s what it takes for him to feel included then good for him.
Well this thread took a turn.
And I just wanted to say the 7 footer shouldn’t use the Washington Generals on the ol resume.
Gotta do your share of jobs before you make it to the big time, kid.
EDIT: I just looked it up and Zech Smith played one season at Morgan State and they went 0-24. Big fella was born to be a General.
Yup, this is exactly it. And it’s kind of weird having an “inclusion doesn’t matter” argument when we just had one of the most obvious pieces of proof about how much inclusion matters at Wrestlemania last year with Kofi and all the reactions to it. It’s indisputable.
And as much as people are weighing this solely on its merits to themselves, it’s only half the puzzle to discuss it in current terms. It’s about kids and following generations growing up where difference is unremarkable. And that doesn’t happen without us being able to leave “firsts” way in the past.
