They’ve been rivals for years. Even though I don’t like Dolph it’s cool to see them going at it for the main title. Plus it has been a long time since they faced ,for the world title is a fun take on it.

Black himself says he's not a Satanist, but he does seem like the kind of guy who'd take this kind of stance. Yeh as KN said,he would be profiled.Maybe not evn that. Just showing the imagery of thing associated with it may be causd for arrest,regardless of intent. Im also not sure if Rey could wear his cross mask. I remember when they were building up the matches for Crown Jewel and they were Photoshopping them out of his stock photos, so that is definitely a no-go. And going back to Aleister Black, the Observer reports that he was not given the option of going or not going, he was being pulled regardless because of concerns about the religious imagery of his tattoos.

Doesn't Rey have a big tattoo of a cross or am I thinking of someone else?

Not just a cross, but the Rosary. He occasionally has worn a t-shirt or something similar over his chest, though, so they may opt for something similar for Rey. Not sure if they could or would do the same for Black. ObTopic: Ziggler chasing Kofi would be a good feud _if_ we didn't know the outcome already. He's a throwaway challenger in the run-up to Kofi losing the title, either to Brock or to someone else.

I want Dolph to lean more heavily into whiny bitch territory. He should've dyed his hair black and worn eyeliner and shit. Get real emo about it. Make him a parody of Jericho's tryhard douche persona (and I say that as a long-time Jericho fan).

Doesn't Rey have a big tattoo of a cross or am I thinking of someone else? A cross is probably an easier sell--especially with a shirt cover-up like Rey has done plenty of times before--than a lot of the things on Black's body, which deal less in a general symbol of faith recognized worldwide kind of vibe and more in blatant occult symbolism. In some ways I think there's an expectation that western entertainers coming in might be Christian. Quite another to have a dude covered in the sort of stuff Black is covered in, which to the uninitiated already looks pretty edgelordy, but recognizing a lot of the stuff he's got there I can assure you there is no easy "It's just nonsense" argument there, those things mean shit. Maybe not shit he believes or puts any stock into, but that's really going to matter here.

I figured if they were doing that, what about the large tattoo. But as people mentioned a shirt would probably work.

He left? I'm not being a smartass. If I don't see, Apollo Crews for a few weeks I don't think he's gone. I just think the shows overbooked.
Also. Its zigler. He will be 65 and and be doing this. It would be comparable to Groundhogs Day except time progresses for everyone but him, he never learns lessons or tries different things.

I think he'd said in an interview that he was taking a break for a little while. And he'll probably go back to that once the KSA show is over.
