7. Kenny Omega

They don't call him 'The Best Bout Machine' for nothing. Kenny Omega is one of the most justifiably revered wrestlers of his generation, and by the time he hangs up his boots, he will go down as one of the most legendary in-ring performers of all time. That said, even the best of the best have parts of their game that seem to annoy the hell out of people.

Detractors of 'The Cleaner' have often been irritated by the facial expressions that Kenny pulls during matches. As the Canadian made his name for himself in NJPW, he is one of the Western superstars who fully embraced Japanese culture in a way that some fans from the US, Canada, and Europe found hard to accept.

Omega is on record as having a big love of Anime and fighting games in which characters are known to pull extreme facial expressions. Kenny has always employed these aesthetics in his matches, and that seems to be an acquired taste for some fans. Wrestling is a bombastic art form. Even still, Omega's application of extreme snarls and wide-eyed facial contortions has always been a source of annoyance for a very vocal set of fans.
