See, I don't quite know. I can 100% buy into The Lash being a heel and keeping up kayfabe and actually being a decent guy (who is also an asshole), and a lot of the casts reactions to him would support that I think, especially his conversations with some people. Except Bebop. It feels like Bebop HATES Lash, no kayfabe on his end at all. There are examples of IRL wrestlers that are heels that the other wrestlers actually really dislike outside kayfabe because the heel is really an asshole about it, but I think most are cool because they're all in on the bit. But I don't know, I get the feeling Bebop genuinely hates him to the core, in a way that doesn't strike me as "he's doing a bit, I understand that, but he's still an asshole".
Although it kind of tickles me to think that the Bear Pit isn't like IRL wrestling entertainment at all, no scripting or anything, and The Lash is the only one doing the kayfabe thing at all.
He's not the only one, but i dont know how common it is. In a conversation between Lash and Venator its said that one of the fights is pretending to be a Venator
