10 Wrestlers Who Mock You For Taking It Seriously

8. King Corbin

All kings should be curmudgeonly. A jolly king just wouldn't be right, would it? There's something delightfully vintage about a kvetch with a crown. Baron Corbin has definitely got the sourpuss gimmick down to a tee, although he should probably sign out of Twitter from time to time.

In just one of a number of anti-fan tirades from Corbin's Twitter account, he said:"Internet fans can not be pleased no matter what. They say wear blue; you wear blue, they hate blue, why would you wear blue. 'We want this' ok here 'we hate that.' They are impossible, and they wonder why people don't listen to them."

He should be above such things, surely, a King doesn't bother himself with the petty flip-flopping of the peasants, after all. But no, Corbin is always fairly quick to tip-tap away and prove himself no better than those he lambasts.

Corbin isn't known for his ability to take criticism, but he is known for his willingness to make fun of the less-chiselled members of his, erm, fanbase. Keep that in mind when condemning the king; he might come back at you with some sort of comment about a piercing, or something.

Born in the middle of Wales in the middle of the 1980's, John can't quite remember when he started watching wrestling but he has a terrible feeling that Dino Bravo was involved. Now living in Prague, John spends most of his time trying to work out how Tomohiro Ishii still stands upright. His favourite wrestler of all time is Dean Malenko, but really it is Repo Man. He is the author of 'An Illustrated History of Slavic Misery', the best book about the Slavic people that you haven't yet read. You can get that and others from www.poshlostbooks.com.
