I mean, okay, but it's also one which makes sense, in context.
Personally, I don't have a whole lot of empathy for people who walk into a comedy set halfway through, and complain that they don't get the punchline to a joke that was set up during the half of the set that they missed; that's what this "The Man" criticism is, to me.

Any thoughts on the emergence of All Elite Wrestling, backed by the Khan Family (owners of the Jacksonville Jaguars)
I despise CODY and The Bucks, so my interest is non-existant now. But with billionaire backers, can WWE actually have competition on the horizon?

On that note, a lot of speculation where Kenny Omega is going next. Stay in NJPW? WWE has apparently made a “fantastic offer”, and AEW has a similar offer on the table.

As a workrate mark, in general, and a "scientific wrasslin" mark, in particular, the Bucks aren't really my taste. But I respect anybody who's doing well enough, just from working the indies, to be able to tell Vince, "**** you, we don't need your money; we're making more than you'd probably be willing to pay us, anyway, just doing the indies, and we get to keep all the money from our merch sales, and we get more time off than we would if we worked for you, and we have total control over our gimmick."
I also think that a lot of the people who are the most vocal critics of the Bucks may take wrasslin' too seriously.

This could be great.
More likley it follows the boring 2/3 falls trope of the heel getting a fast roll-up pin (that never works in any other match ever) and Mysterio follows with a super quick 619 (that would be avoided in any other match ever) before they go to the third where they properly tear it up again.
