I saw someone say that it wasn't even about wanting a black title reign. They just wanted to see a black superstar be a part of a major storyline and get promo time. They had even posted a stat that added up all the promo time for black talent and it was low with Max castor having the most time i think for his freestyle entrances.
Now that they got Keith Lee hopefully they'll put him in that position cause I think that people are gonna be watching the way that he's booked now that he's signed more than anybody else. They know that WWE fucked up w/ him so now they gonna be looking for AEW to go all in w/ him
