1. Racist but that's nothing new |

It's essentially the same gimmick the WWE did with the Guerrero's (Eddie and Chavo, two Hispanics) or that TNA is currently doing with the Latin-American eXchange.
The Guerrero's got over in a massive way because of it. LAX are getting over despite it (one of them is very talented, teh other two are pretty good). Race angles are nothing new in wrestling. This isn't even the most blatantly racist gimmick I've ever seen (that would be either the Nation of Domination or teh original incarnation of the Gangstas).
