Might Fail in WWE: Omega is a pure wrestler, but WWE is sports entertainment

Let's establish one thing; The WWE is not primarily a wrestling organization any longer. What that means is that while wrestling matches are central to the product, their goal is to entertain first and foremost. That entertainment could take the form of a wrestling match, or it could take the form of a twenty-minute long skit featuring pancakes and little people in colorful costumes.
Kenny Omega is a great wrestler--some would argue he's the best in-ring performer on the planet--but could he also be a great sports entertainer? Could his pure wrestling character survive in a world that features such out of this world chicanery?
There have been many talented athletes which came to the WWE and failed to become great success stories in spite of their ability to put on great matches. Omega will need to be able to do more than just wrestle if he wants to get over in the WWE.
