how much heat would they have today? was it ahead of its time?

This would have been GOAT today. Endless amounts of heel heat and SJW years would flow from this angle today.

It's amazing they were still able to get away with a gimmick like this just three years ago.
If they did this now, it'd cause a lot of controversy and Swagger/Zeb would end up fired within a week.
It probably would get cheered in some parts of the country now.

Dutch Mantell wouldn't have the balls to do it with the current political climate being the way it is.

Nobody cared then
Nobody would care now
WWE is irrelevant IRL

I'm not so sure about that. GFW has been pushing racism storylines again and with Cornette there (who loved to book with current events) they might go that extra mile

>>3111658
Cornette hasn't booked in-line with a current event since the mid-90s

>It probably would get cheered in some parts of the country now.
Well, they (especially Colter) actually got cheered pretty much everywhere - I'm quite sure that's why WWE stopped the gimmick.

Konan calling white people crackers isn't racist. It's only racist when a white person does it.

The crowd was full of Latinos and they all boed del Rio while pledging we the people. It was pretty funny

Unironically they would be mega babyfaces to me

Only problem is it would be written by effeminate libtards who would depict strong patriotic men as scary caricatures.

At least Vince McMahon, "stuck in his ways", portrays patriotism in a positive light as it should be.

Anti-patriotic leftwingers tend to be genetically inferior who know that they can't compete with their fellow countrymen on a level playing field and thus welcome chaotic immigration which requires massive government intervention and socialist handouts which they then latch onto and get the resources that they would normally be out-competed for.

>this is what /pol/ really believes

>>3111628
It would be refreshing if nothing else. The only controversy WWE creates anymore is bullshit backstage drama that only smarks care about. They never take any risks with gimmicks, characters, or storylines anymore.

it's racist when white people call other white people crackers?

>>3115390
No that cancels itself out, but white people can't call people of other races any funny names or its a hate crime.

So, what you're saying is, Anti-patriotic leftwingers have outsmarted you with planning and co-ordination and are now acquiring resources?

Who's genetically inferior now?

>how much heat now?
Only as much heat as a good promo libtard character can work them into. Having a political stance just for its own sake doesnt produce heat. It just produces pointless vignettes.

>was it ahead of its time?
