Racism in WWE wad at historic levels back then. Still is prevalent today but has softened somewhat due to the very public killings and police brutality of certain black individuals There is zero reason why Triple H has not asked JTG to come back yet. The man is in the best shape of his life, clearly has gotten even better in the ring and the fans would instantly get behind him as he is one part of Cryme Tyme and carries on the legacy of Shad with every success he gets, as Cryme Tyme should have been tag team champions
@@2Good2BeTrue45 I think since vince left they've been treating black wrestlers a bit better especially in NXT with oba femi & Trick williams . less shucking & jiving
One of the biggest missed opportunities in that time period, the guys deserved at least a short reign if nothing else. Truth got played his first run in WWE too, had this man with Road Dogg talking bout some “get rowdy”.
your outfit worked so perfectly with the culture in the 2000s, it was so Y2K, but if someone copied your style today nobody would understand it lol it was iconic
I used to love how you used to do the motorcycle dance during your entrance lol. I knew that had to be inspired by Yung Joc who had the song “It’s goin down” which was a big hit at the time.
Man me and my brother used to imitate you and Shad all the time! We still randomly yell the "Yo, yo, yo, yo! Pop a 40 and check your rollies, it’s Cryme Tyme!! BROOKLYN, BRROKLYN" 😂
I always thought you really reminded me of Nelly the most, with that facial hair and build and smile. The hat hid most of the distinguishing differences when you had it down low.
You were one of my favorite wrestlers when I first started watching the WWE. Cryme Tyme had me and lil bro tryna be just like you guys. Love and respect brother I see the channel coming along too.
I loves watching you and shad on wwe TV. You was one of my favorite tag teams. I look back fondly on your segments and always die laughing. One love my guy
The one wrestler i been waiting to have a RUclips channel. Keep doing you JTG, a lot of people identified with you growing up watching wrestling. I know I did. 💯
Great to see you on RUclips now. I remember growing up and watching you and Shad teaming up and especially you two beeing in The SmackDownvsRaw games😅. Great Times😢. Still a shame you two never could win Tag Golds🙈. Great to see u still doing good today, good luck with your RUclips Career i will definetly follow you. Keep up the grind, great job so far👍. Greatings from Germany👋
I’m so glad you got a RUclips channel. Loved you guys back in the day! Black representation was everything💯 Never forget in 08 you called my brother in character on the phone. As an 8 year old at the time, I thought that was the coolest thing ever.
Great video bro, one video recommendation I have is to talk about you and shad relationship and how it was in the WWE and after yall left (of course only if you’re comfortable talking about that) 🙏🏾🙌🏾 keep it up man 💪🏾
It's cool to see how many people inspired your character, i mean growing up i knew that Bulletproof vest had something to do with 50 Cent but as far as the other attire & inspiration for that, it was interesting. What made the JTG character work too is that you brought your own Swag to it. Still one of the coolest characters to ever be in WWE or anywhere in my opinion.
The fact that you rep Brooklyn made me comment to you and Shad more. Besides the gear you both wore... It was like a bonafide stud action that Cryme Time should have been champions... I could see Cryme Time having them tag team titles and have them all blinged out ...
I feel like you remembered my last comment with that yo yo shade story Man not being weird but genuine love I can tell you're one of the people from the WWE I would of enjoyed meeting You seem like you really respect and appreciate your fans. Thank you because I wasn't feeling too good about myself and the fact that you jtg (just too good) acknowledging that maybe meant a lot
The segment with DX and Cryme Tyne is legendary. One of the best segments ever imo. Who came up with the “I speak jive” line? Can you please do a video explaining how that segment came about and what it was like filming? 😂😂
So tell us about where you're at now? You still active?? Where can we see J perform? Keep up the great work bro. Godfather KS smiling at you for representing strongly.
My created character, Cryme tyme & Shelton benji had a faction on smackdown vs raw 2007 I made them win the tag titles champions champions yea yea good times
This is awesome JTG! Keep up the good work, as the channel grows perhaps you can get some other wrestlers you worked with or even some you haven’t just to chat what life was like on the road for you all!
You were my absolute FAVORITE wrestler growing up. You even sparked my interest into possibly even getting into the ring myself. You were definitely a big part of my childhood and Cryme Tyme is definitely on my all time favorite Tag Team list. PS: I make some pretty interesting RUclips content about daily life, and it would mean the world if you ever had time out of your day to check it out. Peace and blessings brother!!
JTG make a video on will you ever return to wwe you should I want to play as you and shad in a wwe game and listen to that fire cryme tyme theme song in the menu screen and play as you and shad bro 😂 please
NGL Bruh your gimmick was too cold for WWE, I always thought it was too dope, yall had the high end gear on the ring, Ed Hardy, Crown HOLDER, Levis, damn I even remember Rocawear and Akademiks if I'm not wrong, plus the Timbs, that stuff was too NY, salute, JTG.
Cryme Tyme was one of my favorite tag teams during the ruthless aggression era. It's mind boggling that WWE didn't put the Tag Team Championships on Cryme Tyme.
Imagine if cryme time would have stayed in the wwe in this modern era they could have done a program with Usos and street profits that would been a banger.
Man at your WWE Debut, you felt like the most credible character for the Hip Hop Culture in Sports Entertainment. The only thing you needed was a strong booking. I ain’t gon’ lie. I remember myself imitating you at like 11 years old. Talking like you, trying to dress like you and all that! 😂😂 You should bring back that attire sometime in the future especially if you ever go back to WWE (who knows).
Do you ever feel a type of way that cryme tyme never won tag team gold despite how hot you guys were and especially during that period where there was lots of hot potatoe reigns. also was it ever planned for you to win some gold unitil it got changed ?
As an independent wrestler myself. I just wanted to say thanks because of u and shad (rip) yall made it cool to be hood and be a wrestler The only difference is I can’t wrestle in tims.. double sole?!? Fuck no.. you a straight gangster for that one.. I use Jordans 😅
No disrespect whatsoever, because I love it when we make it...... but did you ever feel the whole Cryme Tyme gimmick didn't represent the CULTURE in the most positive light? Just a thought.
I like the group but they were very sterotypical rap group members which didnt really stand out to be its own thing or look. I think around 2009 jtg started to have straight hair and more of a identity .i really was into jtg right before the brakeup.u didn't got the proper push can u talk about tht time
I hated when they turned yall babyfaces some stuff was comedic but then there was stuff they had yall doing that I felt watered down the gimmick and it was during that trash ass PG era so….

Bro was moving like that in Timbs 😂😂 he certified.
Maaan, you and Shad should have been tag team champions in 2008! 🏆 🏆

@@Cratossama I agree but I personally think triple H doesn’t know how to book cool black wrestlers like Bobby and street profits even carmelo Hayes !
Cryme Tyme was like G unit's official tag team lol, much love man.

I'mma send this to a dude I know in a small independent promotion near me, I think he will love hearing this. Thanks JTG for bringin' da hood 2 us!
They said you looked like nelly back in the day. 👍🏾💯
Ngl he kinda did
When you mentioned the bb belt, I thought you were going to say Max B 😂😂
One of My favorite wrestlers been watching you since 2006.
It's tremendously cool to see JTG still looks so incredible still living so well but I miss him in the WWE
I always thought you really reminded me of Nelly the most, with that facial hair and build and smile. The hat hid most of the distinguishing differences when you had it down low.
I'm glad I found this channel! I still remember your iconic dance down the ramp.
JTG
I remember you
You were in both the pg era and Ruthless agression era.
RIP Cryme Tyme.
Wrestling in timbs was crazy but huge respect ✊🏾
Was a big G-Unit fan back then so seeing the bulletproof vest definitely caught my attention.
You were one of my favorite wrestlers when I first started watching the WWE. Cryme Tyme had me and lil bro tryna be just like you guys. Love and respect brother I see the channel coming along too.
Aye bruh I was a huge fan of Cryme Tyme on dawgz .. I still got you and Shad's Action Figures till this day.
7:29 Didn’t You Have A Custom Jacket (Black And Green) With Your Face On It If I Remember Correctly
I loves watching you and shad on wwe TV. You was one of my favorite tag teams. I look back fondly on your segments and always die laughing. One love my guy
I wanna thank u & Shad for making our childhood great!!
Broooo Crime time was my favorite tag team, loved your matches. Cheers from Mexico!
My guy JTG you are my favorite superstar of all time like shad it’s always good to see you back
We need some travel stories with you and shad

Great video bro, one video recommendation I have is to talk about you and shad relationship and how it was in the WWE and after yall left (of course only if you’re comfortable talking about that) 🙏🏾🙌🏾 keep it up man 💪🏾
Thanks for the idea!
Can you make a video of JTGs top 10 to 15 moves? And what inspired you to use the moves?
Great video! Always been a fan of yours hope to see you back in wwe one day
Im from NY and your style def reasonated when I was in middle school. Straight NY..... I always got some Bedstuy hood influence from you and Shad.
Dipset really were those guy when they came out
JTG happy to see you here I just subscribed. I want you to take off big on here all you need is a better camera and microphone. Much love

The real question is where did you come up with the idea with the socks over ya timbs bro that was fire

So tell us about where you're at now? You still active?? Where can we see J perform?
Keep up the great work bro. Godfather KS smiling at you for representing strongly.
Cryme Tyme is top 5 tag teams of all time and I love how ya brought out the New York culture in everything 🗽🙌
My created character, Cryme tyme & Shelton benji had a faction on smackdown vs raw 2007 I made them win the tag titles champions champions yea yea good times

Bro please keep posting. I’m loving ur videos❤❤❤
what about the Tommy Hilfiger boxers those were dope😂 btw you still own your chains and grillz?
That shirt 🔥🔥🔥
This is awesome JTG! Keep up the good work, as the channel grows perhaps you can get some other wrestlers you worked with or even some you haven’t just to chat what life was like on the road for you all!
Why is your room empty and what will you add in it in the future?
Back in the ruthless agression era cryme time was favourite tag team man i wish you and shad gaspard would have won the tag team championship by now.
My brother and I always rocked with Cryme Tyme growing up, and this video explains a lot of that! CHEA!
I love your videos keep up the great work❤
You were my absolute FAVORITE wrestler growing up. You even sparked my interest into possibly even getting into the ring myself. You were definitely a big part of my childhood and Cryme Tyme is definitely on my all time favorite Tag Team list.

i wish i would’ve gotten your action figure when i was younger i i’m looking for it and i can’t find any
YOOOO JTG ON RUclips LET'S GOOOOOO
Soulja was the 1st to inspire JTG to customize his shades😂😂😂
The goat JTG. And did you see Jim Jones with Swerve on AEW?
Will always miss Shad. Glad to see you’re still healthy.
JTG make a video on will you ever return to wwe you should I want to play as you and shad in a wwe game and listen to that fire cryme tyme theme song in the menu screen and play as you and shad bro 😂 please
i bet airlines gave you a hard time wearing the bullet proof vests especially during the war and stuff that was going on back then
NGL Bruh your gimmick was too cold for WWE, I always thought it was too dope, yall had the high end gear on the ring, Ed Hardy, Crown HOLDER, Levis, damn I even remember Rocawear and Akademiks if I'm not wrong, plus the Timbs, that stuff was too NY, salute, JTG.
what transitions have you made or what inspired the "gawd" character or what you do now, is it similar or what things have you changed?
Laidback vibes, great stories. Already a great channel, Just That Gangsta
Cryme Tyme was one of my favorite tag teams during the ruthless aggression era. It's mind boggling that WWE didn't put the Tag Team Championships on Cryme Tyme.
kdot or 69god?
A ski mask or balaclava would’ve been dope for you to wear
Bro had the best attire of the 2000s WWE 💯
We wanna see wear your old gear
Imagine if cryme time would have stayed in the wwe in this modern era they could have done a program with Usos and street profits that would been a banger.
Damn, I wish Shad could be part of this.
I wish I was watching WWE at this time. I like the character 💯

I thought glasses was from Flavor Flav, yeah boy
Will you ever go back to wwe

Do you ever feel a type of way that cryme tyme never won tag team gold despite how hot you guys were and especially during that period where there was lots of hot potatoe reigns. also was it ever planned for you to win some gold unitil it got changed ?
Lol why i feel like HHH only told you that cause he only see gang members rock flags like that. Jeff wore towels on his pants not bandanas 🤣
Jeff wore bandanas in the early 2000s
Cam’ron was my wife and I’s song. Hey Ma.
Sell them jeans on Grailed 😂
Man I have to make a video rebuttal…….
For The Culture!
I'm pointing it now. Jay Uso's style is JTG influenced
True
As an independent wrestler myself. I just wanted to say thanks because of u and shad (rip) yall made it cool to be hood and be a wrestler
The only difference is I can’t wrestle in tims.. double sole?!? Fuck no.. you a straight gangster for that one..
I use Jordans 😅
😂😂😂 you hilarious
u had so many black folks mad when i was a kid idk why tho
Rip shadd
JTG solo run was fumbled
ROBBIN IS MY JOB I GET PAID OFF THE BOOKS
No disrespect whatsoever, because I love it when we make it...... but did you ever feel the whole Cryme Tyme gimmick didn't represent the CULTURE in the most positive light? Just a thought.

Call your channel JGT - Crymetyme so ppl will find you easier since you have an inital name
We gotta get you a new camera brotha, this got some 2010 quality written over it.
