For those who don’t know, the guy on the left is a professional wrestler called MJF.
His whole persona is dedicated to being a tool, and he’s pretty good at it. Highlights include telling the world that he’s “better than Moses.”
What I’m saying is that he’s doing a bit in this image. It’s kayfabe.
Now please explain what kayfabe is.
Acting, literally. Playing a character to entertain. Some characters are villains.
I think this is why random wrestling dudes sometimes successfully slide into Hollywood acting careers.
Thank you
For more context. He was fueding with someone who was enthusiastic about DnD
Kayfabe is the wrestling term for always staying “in character.”
Thank you also

He's already one of my all time favourites, he's so damn good at being a hateable piece of shit with one of the most punchable smug little faces.
Even his parents hate him!
Just making sure - is he actually a bad dude or just one hell of a heel?
Hell of a heel.
Just one of the greatest heels ever. I've heard nothing but good things about him out of character.
He's our scumbag!
Not all heels wear masks
