Apparently the spanish commentary were being racist towards Shida tonight. Big yikes Looking on Twitter, it seems like it might've been Willie Urbina making fun of her accent, with other commentators telling him to shut up. If so, Khan needs to nip that in the bud right quick.

And rightfully so. All that shit aside, I thought it was a great segment. It's cool to see Shida actually cut a promo. Made me want her to retain haha

Shida did fine in her promo, got a good reaction but Britt was on a whole different level.

As someone who has been around "friends" who decided to say some racist shit, I've been guilty of awkwardly laughing and trying to get them to move on. I do not condone that in the slightest. I'm just saying that in those positions, it's not always easy to confront that behavior head on and in this case, doing so while you're doing a job. From my understanding and hearing other Spanish speakers explain it to me, Willie is being highly racist here and the others are just trying to move on.

The others can claim plausible deniability as they could say (genuinely or in a covering-their-asses manner) they didn't expect Willie to be so blatantly racist. But Willie's goose has to be cooked.

I mean I dont think any of them need to cover their asses I have to think none of them expected that... I really can't imagine they would just due to the reactions.

Not to change the topic further but it's one of the things I've been really evaluating more during this time basically away from them. Especially after stuff that happened last summer.

But the tone sounds like “yeah do that impersonation” with the intent of waiting to laugh. I’m just saying ..lol. Also the only voice I can distinctly make out is Alex who is definitely saying to “do” the impersonation. And only one voice (a woman) says “that’s bad” and that Shida speaks well in a scorning manner to the others.

We'll have to see how it shakes out but I feel like the one in most trouble here is Urbina for flat out doing the impression. Alex getting involved with Penta and being his manager and now singing Lucha Bros theme song though? Dude has a lot to lose here.

And you can do an impersonation of someone without being blatantly racist.

My prediction is a 30 day suspension for everyone aside from Willie akin to what happened with Sammy and later Excalibur. Willie is certainly getting fired.

I can imagine mandatory sensitivity training. In which case if that happens AEW's Pre and Post Shows will need some new hosts for the next month.
