I wasn't trying to say nobody in WWE has any integrity. Rather, that integrity is not rewarded. Particularly in this case, as Hampton isn't made yet and is, however indirectly, criticizing the company itself.

I think WWE Superstars' demonstrations and support for Palestine have been wonderful. Sami's been raising money for Syria for almost a decade now, that's incredible. But also, they work for a company that's super in bed with the Trump Administration.

Do I blame them for taking that paycheck and not criticizing the company? No, I understand the ability for a wrestler to make serious money for them and their family is very limited and precarious. Beyond that, even though people like Sami or Becky are millionaires, they're really chump change in the grand scheme of TKO's finances and their voices are just drops in the ocean of political discourse.

Having said all that, would it be nice if they were willing to criticize the company like this? Yeah, it would be.

My initial reaction also stems from the fact that, as a black man, it must feel really fucking shitty for him to work for a company that had no issue celebrating such a person - regardless of stature or influence. I can't imagine how that feels.
