Both, homie. Look at the love story behind Kenny Omega and Kota Ibushi, or the whole career of Timeless Toni Storm.

I worked as a substitute teacher in elementary ed when I was in grad school.

In that field, it often felt like I would get work purely because of my gender.

I’m an ex evangelical.

Hard work feels great when it benefits you, your community, folks you care about, or even just real people.

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.
