Omegaism

A term that's named after AEW wrestler and EVP Kenny Omega. It's a positive term occasionally used on Twitter when female Japanese pro wrestlers aka joshis are booked in matches, sometimes against each other.

Nothing wrong about that, but: due to AEW's/ rather Tony Khan's reluctance to put joshis on a pedestal, these matches usually take place on Dark or Elevation and have no impact on the actual product.

AEW on Twitter: "JUST ANNOUNCED: Riho will face Jungle Kyona on AEW Dark. "
AEW/Joshi fan: " Yeah, Omegaism!"
Aftermath: Kyona is nowhere near any AEW program, Riho hasn't appeared in a few months either.

Bad faith

A term that's used by wrestling fans on social media, specifically the ones who support All Elite Wrestling (AEW). It's used when other fans or experts in the industry don't talk positively about certain aspects of the show in order to negate valid criticism. Often times the people who use this term act very hostile towards others with a different opinion.

Casual viewer: "The spots in this match were obviously choreographed and I can't take that seriously. "

Obsessed fan: "It's bad faith. Shut up and watch the fed! "
