>tfw his character, if portrayed as a face, could've fueled discussions on Islamophobia
>tfw his character, if portrayed as a face, could've helped people get over their fear of Arabs
>tfw his character, if portrayed as a face, could've even brought mainstream attention to WWE for promoting such a progressive perspective
It could've been something else. They fucked up so hard.

Before he summoned ISIS and proved that his stereotype of being a terrorist, right?
>>2039840
His gimmick does not make sense considering everyone on the roster in his era were roidmunchers and the fans that he makes fun of were obvious plants.
I'm not sure if Viscera and Rosey were still active when he was around and if Umaga already debuted.

He wouldn't have summoned ISIS if he was face.

Nikki Bella's stepdad wanted to bring the power back to the people. Why was he a heel?

SES was shit because it didn't focus on Gallows that much or that other faceless chick.
It was all just a vanity project for Punk to try to get over

I don't care about the progressive part of it, but I do agree they were sitting on a gold mine with him, but they just couldn't resist going full retard.
>Lol, he's a terrorist now BTW
The fact that people were regularly booing him before that part almost made the crowd a heel to some extent. They were booing a guy who's only crime up to that point was being frustrated that trying to get ahead in America was harder for him just because of his beliefs.
It was an incredibly rare case of a smart story in wrestling.

What was the plan for Hassan? My timeline might be wrong, but his last match was the same Bash where JBL beat Eddie right? Was the plan to have JBL turn face and feud with Hassan or try and then Hassan face? JBL was originally meant to be a face after all until SD lost all its major heels.
>>2040148
Eddie v JBL was 2004, Taker v Hassan was 2005
>>2040148
He was supposed to beat Undertaker and win the WHC.
Not joking. Too bad his undefeated streak ended the night of his career.
>>2039930
but the liberal corner of the internet would never applaud something so gauche as "rasslin"
>>2039930
You are a retard, my man.
>>2042005
Kicking spics out of this country was the most based thing JBL did for us

If the audience was full of SJWs it would be a face move.
