He is always happy at first. Maybe he's too old and out of options to make any noise or maybe he's grown as a person, although I doubt that with him being 50-years old, usually people are who they are.
I will say this, I think it's weird when people want him to be unhappy. How's that? Would I laugh if he starts some typical bullshyt, sure. But I don't wish some dude I've never met to be unhappy in his profession. Fans are weird.
I mean he has nothing to be unhappy about.
Every time something happened where shyt blew up with a company, he had every right to be angry— sometimes over the top from his reaction? Sure.
But I look at it like this, all the people judging him for having a shytty attitude be quitting jobs left and right and getting into it with coworkers due to unfair treatment, unhappiness, etc.
We all know people who quit multiple jobs or had work drama…. And even happens to some of us… until we actually get into a work condition that we favor
It’s no different for punk lol but since it’s wrestling and it involves wrestling fans it’s different for some reason lol.
And like you said people wanting him to be unhappy is weird.. placing narratives on why he’s happy now is weird. Keeping track of his history, when in reality it’s his job history, is weird.
But I am a punk stan so idk ahah
