There's a difference between "stealing shit" with ambiguity, maybe adding a slightly different spin on it and making it your own and LITERALLY just copying what someone else already did in a way that leaves no question.
Like I said, I was doing the "blatantly rip off actual wrestlers" thing when I was e-fedding at 15. I knew what I was doing. "Hey, I'm just blatantly copying a wrestler I like but you see, it's not just lame and uncreative... because THAT'S the gimmick! SO META, GUYS!" It was retarded and anyone with half a brain could see right through it. I had the excuse of being 15 and not really caring much about e-fedding. The Young Bucks are actual professional wrestlers doing what teenage e-fedders and backyard wrestlers were doing in the 90's.
