Even if the guy was good (he isn’t), the gimmick itself defeats the whole purpose of having wrestling. Smarks will bitch and moan about how nothing means anything anymore, but then champion a guy who smacks you in the face with “this isn’t real, so why bother even trying?” You might as well get rid of all your belts and not even have matches at that point.
You don’t have to think it’s real, but it’s nice for art to have a bit of integrity sometimes.
