Black People Like You Don’t Win Titles

Happy Black History Month! For Episode 3, we have Natalie AKA The Introverted Powerhouse, co-hosting alongside AJ Thee Visionary to switch things up. We’re Breaking It Down about the latest WWE talent releases and throwing shade at AEW for giving WWE retirement home… Yikes! In our No-Holds-Barred interview, the hosts are joined by Roy Johnson, AKA Big Wavy (WWE NXT UK), to share more about how he became Ibiza’s favourite wrestler and what got him to pursue his in-ring career. He spills about how he ended up in the NXT UK championship tournament in 2017 and how he created "Everything Patterned”, the first wrestling event in the UK to exclusively feature wrestlers of colour. Wrapping things up, we review Booker T’s match against Triple H from Wrestlemania 19 in 2003. We explore the racist undertones building up to the match and why we think it’s a physical representation of overcoming adversity… or not. We also reviewed Trinity vs. Deonna Purrazzo from Impact Wrestling’s Slammiversary 2023 PPV.Don’t forget to check out our Instagram, where we’re highlighting some Black wrestlers throughout this month. Remember, wrestling is too much fun… to argue about!Follow WITMF on InstagramFollow WITMF on TikTokFollow WITMF on TwitterExecutive Producer: Andrew Spence for UneditedProducer: Christopher Mitchell for Breaking AtomsSound Design: Christopher Mitchell for Breaking AtomsAssistant Producer: David KurzerJunior Assistant Producer: Aaliyah Akude Hosted on Acast.
