#NaomiDeservesBetter Historically WWE elevated white blonde Women at the expense of Black Women who are generally athletically superior.

Jackie had many years of experience under her belt but had to put over Sable because she was considered a sex symbol and Jackie wasn't.
Jazz was and still is an athletic freak. She is agile and powerful as fuck and has an impressive leaping ability and Many years of experience under her belt but Trish was white, blonde and a sex symbol who got 7 title reigns. Jazz had 2.
Alicia Fox was super loyal to WWE, longest-tenured woman, at one point was the only Black Woman on the roster, spent most of her years making all the other girls look good with her unique selling ability and her deceptive strength. They never used her to her full potential.
Sasha Banks' title reigns and losses were used to elevate Charlotte Flair back in that long-winded feud in 2016 then eventually Alexa Bliss. Shes never had a successful singles title defence. Her 4 reigns combined don't add up to 100 days.
Bianca Belair. The best homegrown woman on the roster by far. Super strong, super quick, super agile, an overall beast of a performer and insanely smart and beautiful. She chased the NXT title for over a year. She lost momentum after her feuds with Rhea Ripley and Charlotte Flair
Naomi pretty much has been used like Alicia Fox but not as bad but still bad. She's super athletic and agile, won the title at Wrestlemania but barely had a developed reign. Now she's going through a phase of making blondes look good at her expense
This trope is demeaning. @StephMcMahon hire Black Women on your creative teams.

Black Women and WOC have played a key role in your Divas Revolution/Women's Evolution yet were kept out of the WrestleMania Main Event in 2019. Do better

WWE is a perfect example of Black Women and Women of Colour being just as qualified, if not more than their White counterparts and not being given the same opportunities as them.
Even with the group of Black Women and Women Colour, there is a racial hierarchy.

- Latinas
- Asian Women
- Black Women
- Polynesian Women

They use Latinas and (only recently) Asian Women to hide Diversity/Racial issues.
Damn. Maybe I should write my dissertation on WWE's Racism issues next year
Id go to war for Naomi and Bianca
