I would attribute this a little less to racism and more to him expecting "championship material" to look a certain way, ESPECIALLY black guys. Notice how similar Lashley looks to Ahmed in his prime? It's totally shocking Titus hasn't gotten the push Reigns is getting.

And at that, if Vince IS racist, he's racist against all people of any skin color who AREN'T of Samoan heritage.
