Wireguard is an extremely simple protocol, basically as simple as it is possible for an encrypted VPN protocol to be.
OpenVPN uses TLS (in TCP mode) and a custom protocol based off of TLS in UDP mode, its design is vastly over complicated by the use of x.509 certificates, and in general is just kind of ugly and kludgy (and slow).
