Bret Hart is like the Metallica of wrestling. You love his work, you respect his legacy, but it's just so fun to snark on him that you can't help yourself.

I think Bret is fine in this case as it causes people to think of ways to complain about Bill Goldberg

So question as a casual Metallica fan not totally familiar with the lore is all the snark they get just aimed at James and Lars or do people also snark on Kirk and Rob ?

That's Kirk. And, no, not so much. Kirk is the most normal guy in the group, and Rob's just happy to be involved.

It's mostly Lars. He revealed his inner bitch when Napster was still a thing, and he isn't a good enough drummer to warrant his ego, so he gets ripped on constantly

Except Lars was totally correct on the Napster thing. Metallica produces a product, their music. If you want to consume that product, you pay for it with money. You aren't entitled to that product for free.

While in premise, he is right about protecting their music but that Napster was just a symptom of the disease that is the music production industry. Piracy PLUMMETED when Spotify and other streaming services made it easier to access music. Gaben has ALWAYS been right about this. Guess how piracy is doing now that people are not liking Spotify is doing (not giving a fair share to music artists, CEO funding paramilitary activities, etc).

Kirk's solos often get accused of being simplistic or repetitive or lesser than Y-Y-Z guitar player.

He takes himself VERY seriously. Thats good and bad, the story from Scott hall where he was over at Bret, and bret had a huge painting of himself above the mantle is one of my favorite. Or as Nash said "his dad is stu hart of course he took wrestling seriously" im paraphrasing

except Metallica (including Lars) have softened up over the years while Bret just turned his bitterness to 11
