Would fans really buy his tough guy act anymore though? A lot of y'all say they wouldn't care but what's that based on? Had he been competitive maybe but he just got destroyed so bad both times

In order to be taken serious as a pro wrestler, you usually have to portray a character that has some level of toughness...no? Usually wrestlers tell each other I'm going to whoop your ass , that's a tough guy act
So by that rationale, Keanu Reeves better legit be able to kill 50 people with ease like in John Wick otherwise no one will watch his movies?

Don't be dumb...Pro Wrestling is different than movies... Kayfabe is dead obviously, but perception matters.. it's why Bart Gunn was dead in the water after getting KOed by Butterbean, that stuff matters on a subconscious level of a fan because pro wrestling and reality blur the lines sometimes and on the flip side, it's what makes Lesnar legit is because we know in real life he can whoop someones ass.

how does it look to have a dude be your top draw that got straight bytched out in UFC twice.. we all know it's fake but it's just a bad optic

If perception mattered why was Shawn Michaels believable as a "tough guy" after getting his ass whupped? And you're seriously comparing Bart Gunn to CM Punk :mjlol: Bart Gunn was never gonna be a top talent.

Remember when Punk had a promo with The Rock? Rock was super animated doing his catchphrases and all, and Punk goes "fukk the catchpohrases, I'm just gonna kick your ass!":birdman::birdman:

@Art Barr swears this was the greatest line. Everyone else saw that Punk and Rock in the same ring didn't look right, and that line taking things closer to reality just made it look more stupid.

His stans swore that him not lifting or grooming himself was OK, and that he was believable because "he has an MMA background" . Now is the time to LAUGH.:heh::heh::mjlol::mjlol::russ::russ:

Shawn Michaels wasnt believable..that's why fans turned him for Hornswoggle and they never got behind him as the #1 top face...ever.
