+ "in real life" TJ Perkins is a "men's rights activist" so I just keep thinking "Giant Douche" when I watch him...usually I can separate that from the wrestler (I mean let's be honest, HBK is/was a giant asshole but I love HBK).

That one part is what I always think when I see him. The dab just punctuates it.

It's like he has Xavier Woods' gimmick, just with a corporate lens on it. So, instead of being like Woods, or Asuka who are wrestlers who are into gaming, he looks like Vince was like "HEY, THIS IS WHAT THE KIDS ARE INTO, RIGHT? VIDEO GAMES? FINE! GO BE LIVING VIDEO GAMES!" It's about as goofy looking as early 90's corporations adding absurdly corny rap, sunglasses, skateboards, and the word "EXTREME/X-TREME" or "2000" to advertising.

He just went from his leg being "destroyed" one moment and "perfectly fine" the next. If he isn't going to actively sell the injury, at the VERY LEAST he could do a "I'm going to shake/stretch my leg out to signify it is now going to be fine".

Think I have noticed the same thing before in another match he had.......
I thought you, as a fellow Asian man, loved the Asian verson of "Hulking Up" Ani.

But there is no "Hulking up"..... nothing to "signify a change"..... he just "suddenly is alright"......
