I wouldn't care too much if AEW fans just appreciated that this guy is an out-of-shape, sloppy wrestler who doesn't really need to be elite in the ring but instead they have to act like he's putting on 5 star matches. Why are they like this?

All of them. You think him lightly tapping people with a kendo stick is badass so I don't have to argue with you.

He thrives off his work friends blowing smoke up his ass, calling him the greatest guy they know and shit.

In reality, he's shit all around.

The one where he explained him laying over Moxley in the exploding barbwire match was because he has anxiety. Not even exaggerating.

I like him when he's talking but then I know he's just going to reenact some kind of Japanese match from the 90s in a really sloppy way

He can work, it's just that what he wants to do looks stupid when he does it. He wants to wrestle like a giant muscleman from 90s ajpw but he can't do that believably. But no one will stop him.

He was a big cult favorite among the boomers who followed the post-ECW era indies, glad they finally get to see their guy on TV

He used to be good, not the best in-ring performance but great on the mic but now he only tries to recreate surface level AJPW matches to turn the retards who watch AEW on.

There have been guys fatter than Kingston in the business for 60 years you retard

Kingston's physique is not all that different from Harley Race's during his latter NWA title run but you wouldn't know anything about that

Harley Race, towards the end, was a boulder-gutted slob who looked like a longhaul trucker's dad. He looked worse than Kingston physically and also looked twenty years older.

He was based before he started doing this retarded King's Road LARP. I still believe he could have made it in the WWE if they signed him back in the early 2010s.
