Love you, but this is a load of shit. I hope it was a joke.
Keith Lee describing himself as an “intellectual” on his Twitter page is like a woman having a gimmick where she’s rubbing a college degree in people’s faces like it’s some surreal achievement. Yeah, black men can be intelligent. No shit. It doesn’t mean you have to act like a total toss putting weird inflections on things to “subvert” the idea that you’re supposed to be in a business where you fight for your money.
There are plenty of black wrestlers who can talk articulately and still cut good promos in a wrestling context because they get where they are and what their goal actually is.
If the dude was really smart, he’d put that intelligence into not sucking as a wrestler to the point he got fired despite allegedly being such a progressive fucking hire. Glad we’ve FINALLY got a smart black man in wrestling. Fuck all that noise.
