Ring of Honor Wrestler on People Being Offended by WWE’s The New Day Stable

– Ring of Honor star Cedric Alexander recently appeared on the Jobbing Out podcast and had the following to say about WWE’s The New Day group:

“This opens up a whole different can of worms here, because everyone I know watching WWE is offended by The New Day, extremely offended because of the whole racial thing. It’s like, `oh, we’re three black guys, we’ll sing, we’ll dance. You’ve got Kofi Kingston, who is a phenomenal athlete. Big E Langston is a gigantic, threatening man and Xavier Woods is extremely intelligent. So why make them sing and dance when they obviously can be more serious, I guess.”

“When they first started this thing, it was like two or three weeks that they did it where Xavier would come out and be like a Malcolm X type of thing. He was preaching black power, without saying black power, which I think is fantastic because you don’t offend anyone. But when you’ve got three black guys singing and dancing, stereotypes get fed too much and I hate it.”
