Why has there not been a heel in the last 15 years whose gimmick is being openly racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, and transphobic?

Because, despite people knowing it's a work and ITS FAKE GUYS they WILL get offended when something that hurts their feelings personally gets streamed live on TV
which is retarded, you either fully realize it's a work or you don't

Too many people know wrestling is a work. The heat would go on the promotion, not the wrestler.

It's this. He wouldn't be a heel, he'd be a fan favorite.

>this myth again

Everyone except for children knew pro wrestling was a work at least as far back as the early 80s. I can assure you because I was watching then. And others that were in the business or just followed it will confirm the same.

The trick in pro wrestling has always been to make things seem so legit that the line between work and shoot are blurred and the audience can't tell where it is.

Most common line spoken by a wrestling fan is some version of: "I know wrestling is fake, but those two guys really hate each other!"

Racism is dimeless. Shitters keep pushing this like it's a big deal, when all they do is shouting the N-word in a bingo hall.

Wrestling is dimeless without heat. Heat is what draws. And racism STILL draws nuclear heat, brother.

No it hasn't. Nobody except children thought any of the fights involving Hulk Hogan were real in the 80s. Worked shoots have always been a desperate attempt by dying promotions to save themselves, and the worked shoot never gets people over.

because wrestling is about drawing the masses and your idea would drive alot of people away. Garage feds can get away with homophobic stuff etc because they don't know how to draw the masses, might aswell cater to SOMEONE.

The only thing that matters in wrestling is making the characters look/sound believable and making that character exciting enough to the draw viewers in, the context of that character doesn't matter just make the shit exciting and charasmatic.
Sami Zayn was getting crickets until people started to believe in his character, now they believe his character and he's been getting good cheers since then. Which he deserves because he portrays that character very well and he made it fun to watch.
