Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was just reading a comic page where the father is encouraging the son with the archetype of John Wayne. Are there any contemporary actors that you can use as metonyms for their heroic roles in a similar way?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Who else ever besides John Wayne was like that?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Randolph Scott, maybe, but that's a LOOOOONG time ago.

There might be some people left over who aren't doing the Chuck Norris thing ironically, but since he was representing himself as a spokesperson for a martial arts, it's a bit different. Dunno--maybe Errol Flynn and Bogey, etc, were the packages that H'wood was selling?
I have told the nut shot guy that it's been suggested he's a troll. The point where he names his two senseis and says he's never heard of such nonsense as groin strikes--well, that's where I tell him that him being a troll is the polite interpretation of what's going on.

Maybe he's just a troll in the classic sense.

I've never heard of a nut shot! Never! Nobility forbids it!
Good to know that shot will be open if I ever need to beat him up.
I found a groin kick instructional video from one of my krav instructors and left it for him. I have no doubt that he's preparing a post on the unchivalrous *horror* that is krav maga as I type. The bad thing is--I'm having fun. I can't remotely take him seriously enough to affect my blood pressure.
