[Discussion] What is that one wrestler you just don't like/get? (kbin.social)

We all watch a fairly wide range of wrestling, so across all your favourite/usual promotions:

Who is that one wrestler above all others that you just can't get into?

Do you hate their wrestling style? Is their character boring? Do they just not do anything for you? Hate the performer (keep it civil)? Was there some angle that soured you on them? Let us know! (and obviously do feel free to mention multiple people if needed lol).

Yeah I can see the problems lol. I only saw the first show (yes there were only 2 as far as I know) and I didn't know that they did this "different characters but performer's accolades" thing, that sounds stupid as fuck, pick one.

Shame cause the idea of a promotion set in its own pocket universe where the performers could be reinvented as their own separate versions, with Bull Nakano as commissioner no less, sounded pretty fucking rad.

Lack of commitment to the vision it seems.

Yeah like the overall aesthetic and how they're doing things just..isn't for me even as a joshi puroresu fan but if they at least stuck to it fully and didn't list Stardom, TJPW, Ice Ribbon etc title wins for everyone on their site and talking about it during commentary then I'd at least give it a passing grade.

I'm also not a fan of that outfit Bull Nakano was wearing but she's Bull fucking Nakano she can wear what she wants lol.
