Or maybe not, they were never wrestling people, they probably just fell into the group of 'it's fake, everything's fake'. I wasn't allowed to watch wrestling as a kid because my father thought it was fake and stupid, and it wasn't until I was 12, Steve Austin was a thing and I could use my brother's TV that I started. He was always disappointed that "you like that fake junk" and when EXPOSED: PRO WRESTLING'S GREATEST SECRETS was announced he demanded we watch it together so I could see his point of view. He actually came away from it a wrestling fan, because he'd been operating under the assumption that the falls didn't hurt, the matches were all rehearsed and above all else the blood was stage makeup the ref handed to them. When the show got to wrestlers cutting their foreheads open with razors he adopted a sort of shocked respect for the whole thing. We ended up going to four or so wrestling shows after that. He eventually admitted that while the wrestling was fun his favorite part was getting to chant "rear end in a top hat" at people.
