    Honestly: Wrestling and K-Pop go hand in hand

    Wrestling and K-pop are just alike. From the dedicated fans to the surveillance of CM Punk and Wonyoung, no one can deny how both of these industries share many similarities. With many wrestlers loving K-Pop and K-pop idols loving wrestling like Suga from BTS, it’s not a surprise that both industries overlap.

    As a wrestling fan, you’re probably wondering how this is even possible, and you’re probably rolling your eyes, but let’s explore which wrestler has a K-Pop counterpart.

    Roman Reigns and BigBang

    Roman and BigBang have a lot in common. Newer generation K-Pop fans don’t appreciate BigBang and newer generation of wrestling fans don’t appreciate Reigns. They also go through lengthy periods of not doing much, but they’re still doing something. They’re both iconic and their fans will tell you that you must like and respect them. Perfect song for Roman Reigns: Still Alive. 

    Liv Morgan and Twice

    Liv Morgan and Twice both are chameleons – they know how to adapt to anything that they’re given. They have proven that with a dedicated fanbase there is no end in sight. Their careers have been compared to the people before them, but they keep improving and showing that they can find their own way. Perfect TWICE song for Liv Morgan: Icon.

    Rhea Ripley and Jennie

    Have you ever seen two women get hated for breathing or doing anything? That’s Ripley and Jennie. Like Morgan and Twice, they both dedicated fanbases that stick by them through anything. No matter what people say, they have proven that they are successful due to hard work and determination. Perfect Jennie song for Rhea Ripley: Like JENNIE.

    Willow Nightingale and Hearts2Hearts

    They both have this bubbly vibe, and you can’t help but like them. You can’t help yourself when you see them doing their thing and be happy for them. They’re both very girly-pop, and we love that. Perfect song for Willow Nightingale: Rude.

    Since leaving their respective companies – WWE and YG Entertainment – they’ve been killing the game. Despite outside noise, Moné and Lisa always know how to captivate an audience. They’re here to prove that nothing and no one will stop them from achieving their goals. Perfect song for Mercedes Moné: FUTW.

    John Cena and BTS

    They are considered the GOATs of their respective industries. Some people might argue they paved the way, while others will argue they didn’t pave a way and that they walked along the paths of those before them. They also have classics that even non-fans can’t deny. Perfect song for John Cena: Run BTS

    Jey Uso and Jay Park

    A post shared by Jay Park (박재범) 🇰🇷 (@moresojuplease)

    They are a very acquired taste. You either love them or you hate them. They also love saying the first thing that comes to mind on social media. They were also able to find solo success, although Park was kicked out of his group in 2009. Perfect song for Jey Uso: To Life.

    Jon Moxley and G-Dragon

    Jon Moxley and G-Dragon are two people who know what they’re worth and know who they are. After leaving WWE and YG Entertainment, respectively, they have proven time and time again that their talents are the reason they’re successful. They are able to be true to themselves now. Perfect song for Jon Moxley: Power.

    Dominik Mysterio and ATEEZ

    Having charisma is a must in K-Pop and wrestling; both Mysterio and Ateez have the crowds in the palms of their hands. ATEEZ has this mentality that it’s all of them or it’s none of them, much like Mysterio’s allegiance to The Judgment Day. They both don’t fit the stereotypical image you want them to be. Perfect song for Dominik Mysterio: Work.

    CM Punk and Wonyoung

    A post shared by 장원영 WONYOUNG (@for_everyoung10)

    These two individuals are watched so closely that even their haters know what they’re doing. Every move they make is overanalyzed by everyone who’s watching. Punk and Wonyoung are also very girly pop, which basically means they’re both fierce, and people don’t like that. Whether you love them or hate them, they have your attention. Perfect song for CM Punk: 8.

    See? Wrestling and K-pop go hand in hand.
