At what point did smarks start worshiping guys who were actual avatars of themselves, rather than fantasy idealizations of what they wish they could be?

Punk is an unathletic, skinny fat, comic book reading nerd. Owens is a fat neckbeard. These two archetypes aren't very different than the average smark.

Benoit was an autistic manlet, of course, but he was also gassed to the gills and athletic and not an open nerd. So it makes sense why smarks would see him as like the idealized version of themselves, because he is like them but with good qualities. But guys like Punk and Owens are pretty much exactly the same as them, they just happened to get into wrestling.

What do you think?

You getting worked by those fat smarks. Lmao.

Boy that's some cherrypicking.
Sage.

This.

Owens is legit a better athlete than Benoit
>>
>>2835139

Other than Danielson, Punk and Owens have been the number 1 smark favorites for the last 10 years.

Punk doesn't look like any of you ugly fat neckbeard smarks. He was one of the best looking guys in the business and had a great natural physique. Unathletic? the guy had insane stamina. Just because you dislike him for exposing you doesn't mean you try and spread false information

>muh cardio

Cardio is like one incredibly small component of athleticism. He literally never played an organized sport beyond the junior high level. He isn't fast, isn't strong, can't jump high, etc. He is not remotely "athletic." The fact that he was able to be such a successful professional wrestler without having any natural athletic ability is a great credit to him.

This, pretty much.

Owens isn't an eating competitor, he's not Amerifat.

>>2835132
It's a self-insert thing

Smarks cannot self-insert with Hogan, Dwayne, Stone Cold, Cena or even Roman

So they live vicariously through smark avatars like Kevin Owens

>>2835244
But you're discussing about wrestling FANS, not any wrestler specfically, you're getting worked just like hilliary.

The election was nearly 8 months ago.

It's about time (You) moved on methinks.
>>
>>2835300

Right, I agree, but my question is when did it become important for smarks to self-insert? Because "smarks" watched wrestling for years before the rise of guys like Punk and Owens.

Foley is a great example, I think, especially since the spammed the fact that he was just a fan who jumped off the roof of his garage, which made smarks think "I don't need to fantasize that I'm shredded, I can idolize Foley who's a slob like me"

>>2835320
The Hardys were backyarders too.

Shockingly, fans of something will gravitate to people who also were fans of it.
>>
>>2835235
Holyshit dude, yet you're so obsessed with him. Please kill yourself
>>
>>2835326

People watched wrestling for 90+ years without caring whether the people they gravitate towards were also mark fans who they could see themselves resemble. This is a new phenomena of the last 15-20 years, which is why I asked about it.

Phil himself would probably admit he's not very athletic.

No this is some sick weird obsession you guys have with Punk. Leave him alone, he moved on. There are 10 fucking threads here every day for a guy who left the business 3 years ago

>>2835341
Dusty Rhodes & Ricky Steamboat are two of the most over babyfaces of the 80s and their entire schtick was being men of the people.

True, Dusty is a great example -- but he was a legit baseball and football player. I disagree with Steamboat, though, as he was jacked to shit.

Owens was a tri-sport athlete in school, what's your point?
>>
>>2835386
Same, i wasn't either

>all these smarks getting worked


top kek
>>
>>2835132

They both also happen to be phenomenal wrestlers (Owens more so than Punk), and put on quality matches consistently. How dare wrestling fans enjoy good wrestling.
>>
>>2835132
Listen here faggot:

YOU are a smark. And so are all the others like you hate who hate guys like Punk and Owens. Liking Kevin Nash or Jinder Mahal or whatever huge "alpha" guy you prefer doesn't make you anything other than just another smark.

There is no such thing as a "smark favorite" wrestler. Everyone is a fuckin' smark these days.
