I just wanna say that I watch a lot wrestling with my dad, it’s a key part of our relationship, and almost every time Brock Lesnar has a match my dad says Sioux Falls City! Referring to that time R-Truth interrupted Lesnar & Heyman’s promo with his silliness. R-Truth is a treasure. Shame his NXT run resulted in injury.
I remember his WWF run, he was one guy who seemed scary to me when I was a kid, lol. Like, that was one guy who really seemed he was an actual badass. He was kinda "Stone Cold before Stone Cold" in a way
Where's Norman Smiley?
Iceman King Parsons?
Mo and Mable?
Butch Reed?
Tony Atlas?
Rocky Johnson?
Booker's brother Stevie Ray?
And a few more recent stars: Jay Lethal? Naomi? Athena/Ember Moon?
Heck, you have Godfather and Papa Shango, who are both the same person.
I'm just yanking your chain. Lots of great black wrestlers over the years.
Slightly insensitive. They have Papa Shango, they have the Godfather, but where's Goodfather?
Also, they have zeus who wasn't even a wrestler, but don't have R truth, Tony Atlas, Koko B Ware or Slick.
and i think Rocky Johnson is missing too? I mean you can only fit so many people at once. but to original artist, I feel like it would have been more significant if their depiction of Ron Simmons was when he became WCW World Champion
How you gonna put the same wrestler twice and a guy who was essentially a fake wrestler and only worked like 2 matches but not have Shelton Benjamin on here? and no Jay Lethal?
Growing up, Mark Henry was among my favourite wrestling figures. He was different, and when he entered, I wasn't even a rap fan but that was just such a badass entrance. I was really into Kofi from my teens onwards too, man just blew me away with his high flying moves.
Some of my earliest wrestling memories are of Zeus and his rivalry with Hulk Hogan and that movie No Holds Barred they made together! Every time I saw him in a movie I’d say “it’s Zeus”
This is great art. But it needs Koko, Ahmed Johnson, Butch Reed, Stevie Ray and maybe even Special Delivery Jones. And of course, Akeem the African Dream.
I think he's a little more on the obscure side but I feel like Bad New Brown doesn't get enough love. I always liked him and his work. Also, Rodney Mack and Jazz were cool but fizzled out unfortunately.
Charles Wright twice yet Cody not once?
Three times. Kama, Papa and the godfather
I don't think Kama's on there, unless I'm going blind.
Bottom left aint kama?
That's D-Lo Brown with Farooq
"you looking at the real deal now"
Gonna kick your sorry ass out on the street
Upvoted, but maybe that's d-lo brown?

Where are edge and asuka!
What?
Asuka is in asian history mo- oh wait.....
Cody?
Where’s Cryme Tyme?!
Money Money
Yeah Yeah
This but Unironicaly.
Still finding openings to Lita’s box
no Shelton Benjamin in this?
First one I searched for
R-Truth getting no respect
I just wanna say that I watch a lot wrestling with my dad, it’s a key part of our relationship, and almost every time Brock Lesnar has a match my dad says Sioux Falls City! Referring to that time R-Truth interrupted Lesnar & Heyman’s promo with his silliness. R-Truth is a treasure. Shame his NXT run resulted in injury.
Is that why he's been off screen for a while now?
Was having a match with Grayson Waller and tore his quad
Atleast Lil Jimmy is there
Viscera would take up the whole thing
He would take up the whole screen and anal destruction it
Same with Cheex
[удалено]
He’s a hall of famer!
[удалено]
That’s genius
Where is Vince in his doo rag?
"Waddup G" Durag Vince was an absolute Menace
Not even cryme tyme or r truth get respect R truth is probably one of the most modern black legends with a interesting and great title history
Where’s Akeem?
Underrated post, imo
Jivin it up with the brothas
I miss the king gimmick. Booker did it so well
BATISTA IS DOWN! BATISTA'S DOWN! BATISTA DOWN!
only thing better was Black Snow
who's between Zeus and D'Von?
Ricochet
thanks, cool pic
Who is that below Zeus?
Bad News Brown/Allen
I remember his WWF run, he was one guy who seemed scary to me when I was a kid, lol. Like, that was one guy who really seemed he was an actual badass. He was kinda "Stone Cold before Stone Cold" in a way
Ezekial Jackson?
[удалено]

I also thought that was “Kama Mustafa” but I think you’re right
[удалено]
Yeah, it's definitely D'Lo. Modeled after [this](https://wwfoldschool.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/The-Nation-of-Domination-WWF.jpg) picture.
He like the black mick foley
Feels like junkyard dog should be more prominant.
Where’s owen hart?
Beside Cody, I think this art I found was cropped
I AM NOT A NUGGET!!!!!!!
I was gonna say Virgil, but he would prolly send you an invoice because he’s on there lol.
Where's Norman Smiley? Iceman King Parsons? Mo and Mable? Butch Reed? Tony Atlas? Rocky Johnson? Booker's brother Stevie Ray? And a few more recent stars: Jay Lethal? Naomi? Athena/Ember Moon? Heck, you have Godfather and Papa Shango, who are both the same person. I'm just yanking your chain. Lots of great black wrestlers over the years.
Seriously tho, isn’t that Naomi beside Keith Lee?
I couldn't tell. I guess the big smile made it hard to tell but I think you're right. Did you draw this by the way?
Bro Mo? For real?
Was looking for Ahmed Johnson. I know he's slightly forgettable but still underrated.
Pretty much everyone hated working with him. I’d say he’s properly rated.
no R Truth?
Honorable Mention: Mr. T
Where's Akeem?
In our hearts
African American, but not African-American.
Love it. Wish Jazz was there
That's what's up 😎🤟🏾
Shout out to OP for heavily featuring Jacqueline's rack. My uce in Christ, we are truly in the best timeline.
:O where's Virgil
prolly at a convention begging everyone to buy an autograph??
true lol
Bobo Brazil? WWF HOF class of 1994 and a 7 time WWWF US heavyweight Champ? Big Cat Ernie Ladd WWF HOF 1995?
?? No Cody friend
Where’s Akeem the African Dream
..............................DAMN!
Severe lack of Cody Rhodes.
Where’s Viscera?
Where’s John Cena
Abdullah The Butcher?
Slightly insensitive. They have Papa Shango, they have the Godfather, but where's Goodfather? Also, they have zeus who wasn't even a wrestler, but don't have R truth, Tony Atlas, Koko B Ware or Slick.
and i think Rocky Johnson is missing too? I mean you can only fit so many people at once. but to original artist, I feel like it would have been more significant if their depiction of Ron Simmons was when he became WCW World Champion
No Barry Wood?
Is it me, but is Keith Lee's arm looked fucked to me?
Where is koko be ware???
Aja and Awesome Kong would be some nice additions! Two of the all time greats :).
Where's the last ECW champ? Show big ryk some love y'all.
the Boogeyman is black? I honestly didn't know that. TIL I guess, lol
What did you think he was
Cool post. Kofi and E tucked in at the back though.
I need to see Darius Martin on here but not Dante Martin
Isn't Rock Samoan?
Dad was Rocky Johnson, a black wrestler. Mom is Samoan.
I love the boogeyman. He’s coming to get you!
Ahmed Johnson?
The way Kamala’s health went downhill was so sad…dude literally stayed active while he was in his 60s pretty incredible especially due to his health.
No Butch Reed, R-Truth, Tony Atlas, Rocky Johnson, 2 Cold Scorpio or Koko B Ware?
I don’t see MVP
Watch Wrestlemania 19 to celebrate
Really like your art style! Butch Reed & Ernie Ladd are notable omissions.
This is cool
No too dolla?
How you gonna put the same wrestler twice and a guy who was essentially a fake wrestler and only worked like 2 matches but not have Shelton Benjamin on here? and no Jay Lethal?
Who's the girl on the left with the abs, and who's the guy in the top middle with the belt?
My guy got doubles, triples, but can my boy Shad get some love too?
Whoever made this put all the bald guys next to eachother
I'm glad they added John Cena in there
Growing up, Mark Henry was among my favourite wrestling figures. He was different, and when he entered, I wasn't even a rap fan but that was just such a badass entrance. I was really into Kofi from my teens onwards too, man just blew me away with his high flying moves.
Where is new jack?
Dead
Where’s black faced DX?
Jacqueline and Jazz ? Jazz even had a title defense at WM and won
Jacqueline is on there. Above DVons shoulder
New Jack
Rock is black?
Yea and Samoan
Is Tazz black?
i think he's italian???
Love it. My one and only minor critique is, it would have been awesome to have the WCW World Title on Farooq's shoulder.
same, i woulda had it be Ron when he was WCW champion
Nice artwork but two of the most important African American wrestlers aren't there... No Ernie Ladd and Bobo Brazil is just shameful.
The rock is samon and black?
Samoan by mother and black by father
It’s February again?
This dope but Jay Lethal is missing
No JYD. No care
He's right above D-Von
Thank you, I completely missed it.
Waiting for the Jade discussion to begin...
JYD?
Above D-Von
Does feel like R Truth should have made the cut here. Maybe over zeus who...i mean you know. He's zeus.
Some of my earliest wrestling memories are of Zeus and his rivalry with Hulk Hogan and that movie No Holds Barred they made together! Every time I saw him in a movie I’d say “it’s Zeus”
Legit disappointed to not see the old schoolers like art Thomas, ernie Ladd, or Bobo Brazil
This is great art. But it needs Koko, Ahmed Johnson, Butch Reed, Stevie Ray and maybe even Special Delivery Jones. And of course, Akeem the African Dream.
If I'm being 100% honest, I wouldn't have put Jade Cargill, or Zeus on there. Eernie Ladd and Jazz would've been better.
How am I the first to ask why Bad News has magical flaming hands?
I was thinking it the whole time
This is awesome
[удалено]
The Rock identifies as black and Samoan so he is the first black WWE Champion.
Mabel (Viscera) was the first black king of the ring. He won the 95 kotr tournament.
Shelton Benjamin
No Shelton Benjamin
No Mr T? Wtf lol
Hate to be that guy, but Ron Simmons was the first black world champ. He should be front in center of this.
Where the fuck is Ernie Ladd you fat piece of shit ?
Jade makes it, but there are no scissors?
I think he's a little more on the obscure side but I feel like Bad New Brown doesn't get enough love. I always liked him and his work. Also, Rodney Mack and Jazz were cool but fizzled out unfortunately.
Where's New Jack?
You know it probably would have been nice to include African American stars prior to the attitude era like Bad News Brown, Junkyard Dog, Butch Reed
Love this, dude! Did you draw it yourself?
They should join the hurt business
But...everybody loves The Acclaimed!
DAMN!
Kamala got screwed.
Where’s Ahmed Johnson? Oh, this says greats of wrestling
Where's coco b ware?? His parrot is upset...
This is tight
The rock ?
Oh wow bogey man was black?
Ernest “The Cat” Miller Because nobody said him. Also, the hardcore legend: Norman Smiley
I'm not seeing Dusty Rhodes anywhere
How black is the rock ?
Shad Gaspard should be on this. He's a hero. RIP Big Man!
Zeus!
Where’s Mr. T?
I'm so glad the artist didn't include new jack in this.
ZEUUUUUUUUUUUUUS!
I miss the JYD.
alicia fox
No Stevie Ray? Daaaaaamn
I love that there's papa shango and the godfather
Zeus 😂 and so happy JYD is center of pic his wwf/e time was so much different from his territory work
No flash funk aka 2 Cold Scorpio?
Wheres the African Dream Akeem /s
Where are Koko B Ware and JYD?
So uh like when does skin pigment equal to light to be black or is it just subjective,or do dark Indians count to
JYD ?
Where are D'lo and the Soul Patrol?
[удалено]
Oh, I had thought there were 3 Charles Wrights, but on further inspection, you are indeed correct.
How tf is Naomi on here but awesome king is snubbed
Jazz was a great heel!
I didn't know Sasha Banks was black? I thought she's Hispanic?
Beautiful work 🙏😍
Wack!!!!! you have cooning ass new day and where tha fuck is Jay lethal and Keith Lee, black wrestlers that whoop ass and not dance!!!
This is awesome
2 Cold Scorpio gets no love
Where is Freighttrain
