Awesome kong is a tweener now.
Personally i prefer heels because they're more entertaining, faces tend to become stale and corny.
I don't know..but I think Layla is a tweener now too. (maybe that was for one week).
Kong is a tweener. Sharmell isn't really a wrestler. Bolt and Khan have to be heels cause they suck. But you do have a really good point. Most of the black female wrestlers have been depicted as straight up bad asses going back to Jacqueline and Jazz who was a face in ECW and now Awesome Kong. The rest have played the "black bitch" role for the most part.
Very good points.
Kong's a tweener with Gail Kim gone and Christy Hemme out with injury. Plus she's starting to get the Road Warrior-Goldberg reactions. She's a bad ass who doesn't really cheat and kicks the shit out of people. I saw her wrestler MsChif here in Charlotte and she worked face and got all the cheers even though she did nothing different than she does on TNA. The place went crazy when she powerbombed MsChif on Daffney at ringside.
I think Awesome Kong was a face in Japanese wrestling promoted events too...Or I may be wrong...
The thing that I would be bothered with about this (if anything) is that it looks like no black female wrestler can be successful unless they are a heel in WWE and TNA. I hope that's not the case.
The only face black female wrestler(s)/valet I can think of was Dark Journey from mid 80's. But for old school Denise Storm was tough.
Jacqueline during the last portion of her WWE run was a face.
- is that vanessa blue!?!

Nah, it's Rhaka Khan. A horrible name but one sexy, tall drink of water. Just waiting for her to piss off Kurt Angle so that a sextape can "mysteriously" appear.And that's when she stopped getting much mic, ring, and tv time. It's been the same with in all the national promotions she's been in and she's been in all of them.

Very good points about Jacqueline and for whatever reason she works better as a heel. Maybe because those were the times when she got a push.
As for Rhaka Khan to each his own. And apparently her and Kurt are no longer a couple so I don't know if that helps or hurts you.
