FD signifier did a pretty good video essay on the history of black characters and performers in wrestling, particularly WWE. As you said, it was really bad, and still is kind of suspect sometimes. I recommend giving it a watch, even if you’re not into wrestling.
I first saw his video on white anxiety when Bo Burnham’s Inside was all the rage, and it was refreshing to see somebody not completely dunk on it, but also putting it into the context of the breakdown of the liberal facade of welfare for white folx, making them suddenly realize what all marginalized peoples have known for ages. Been a fan ever since.
