Is Cryme tyme soposed to be some kind of joke. People are clapping for people who steals there stuff. There basicly saying "white people like to laugh at us when we act a fool." And how are they already more popular than Shelton Benjamin? I understand JTG and Shad showing there true colors but we all know they don't steel stuff.

I'm not fussin' about It. It's just that sterio-types are running crazy in the wwe. But I guess that's how It is.

As an African American female,I was offended as well until someone on here pointed out how Cade and Murdoch is stereotyping white people as being trailer trash.But at the same time they don't go AS extreme as Cryme Tyme does do they?

Its a joke. WWE has used stereotypes for years and not once did I hear as much complaining as I do with Cryme Tyme. Seriously, they have or have had in the past: an Irishman with a leprechaun, a Muslim that hated America, an Indian that does a rain dance, a mentally-challenged wrestler, an ambiguously gay couple managed by a stylist, hot lesbian action, a Brooklyn thug with mob connections, a tag team of Italian guidos, a Mexican uncle and cousin that lied, cheated and stole, a boring Canadian, a refined European, a witch-doctor from Africa, several masked luchadors, a Japanese man with a yakuza escort, a Japanese man with a geisha escort, a pimp from the hood, a group of male cheerleaders, Mexicans that drove lawnmowers to the ring, a ditzy blonde with a bichon-frise puppy, a tribal Samoan and numerous beer drinking rednecks.
WWE pretty much has a lock on stereotype characters and the stereotype now is the "gangsta". The reason they are all funny is because they are so blatantly obvious. The WWE has its tongue firmly in its cheek with each one. Only idiots (like those two moron activists on Sirius awhile back) take this stuff seriously. Its vastly entertaining (IMHO anyway) for normal people like us that can laugh at the ridiculousness of it all.

Cryme Tyme are two amazing athletes and we all know they playing a stereotype, but it's a way to own it. By mocking it makes it more acceptable. And yeah people cheer for them as they did for Chavo and Eddie. And I don't think people really generalized that all Latinos go around stealing rides, and cheating. Same for Cryme Tyme, more based on games like Grand Theft Auto. Relax, it's just entertainment! they aren't making the african-americans look bad, people knows what is real and what's fake.
