10 Wrestlers Who Didn't Care About Kayfabe

10. Kenny Omega

Some wrestling fans are peculiar.

It is as if they never quite shook the hero worship mentality conditioned in them to become fans in the first place, and those who stan J*m Cor**tte cannot think for themselves - nor even speak for themselves, looking at their pitiful attempts to lick his a*se.

I hate these cosplay wrasslers, too, Jim!

The existence of parody does not ruin that which is parodied. It is an asinine fallacy - imagine applying this take to film, and you might see how mental you are - regurgitated by morons because Corny takes wrestling a bit too seriously. Kenny Omega wrestled a nine year-old girl because it sparked the boundless creativity within him, and the match is a genuine triumph, a piss funny blend of unconscionable cruelty and, if you allow yourself to get on its wavelength, halfway convincing comeuppance. He didn't harm anybody's career, nor undermine his peers in a promotion with stricter rules and a more trad audience.

A man put on a comedy show, and somebody of influence campaigned for him to lose his job because he didn't agree with the content.

Apply that to stand-up, and some of you knackers would whinge "Snowflake!" at the critic quicker than it would melt.
