[7.0] "Thrasher has legit talent and knows how to work a crowd. The Headbangers in particular brought a lot of energy and could wake up a house anywhere in a low-to-mid card. Thrasher is more of a facilitator than a flashy worker. His feel and experience really show by how synchronous he is with his tag partner. Great finishing move. Every match he's in has the chance to set the crowd off. Would have loved to see him and the Headbangers compete in some of the TLC matches with the Dudleys, Hardyz and E&C."

[7.0] "First saw him as "Glen Ruth", enhancement talent during the "New Generation" era of the WWF. He was definitely not just out there being a "jobber", he was more engaging and showed promise. I had no idea it was him after coming back as Thrasher. I rather liked his pairing with Chaz "Mosh" Warrington, regardless of the name, gimmick, era or opposition. Good tag team is good. I recall seeing his career changing injury in real time and it was the first time I knew a guy was in serious trouble, like *for real* FOR REAL, serious trouble. He never truly recovered eh? Anyway, a soft spot with me he has always had. Nice Obituary shirt dude."

[4.0] "I give him and Mosh both a 4 out of 10. Did just fine for their time, but then he trashed his knee and Mosh got repackaged into a horrendous gimmick and by the time they got back together, the tag division had moved on. Early 97-Early 98 was their best period."

[4.0] "Thrasher was Thrasher. Was Thrasher decent? Yeah, I'd say Thrasher was decent. But it's like... he was Thrasher, ya know? It's kind of a shame he never changed it up, is what I'm trying to say I guess. He was taller than his partner Mosh, but in every other regard (look, charisma, moveset, athleticism) he came second. Still, he made it to the big leagues and held a few titles, had a match at Wrestlemania, so good on him. That's all stuff most of us will never do! Go Thrasher! Thrasher being Thrasher, doing Thrasher things."

[4.0] "His gimmick is what saved him. But he was still entertaining. I think Mosh is the better of the two, but Thrasher was still okay. His 2016 return was totally random without any reason"

[4.0] "The Headbangers are kind of remembered as kind of jokes today, but when they were around, people liked them more than how they are remembered today. Neither Headbanger had what it took to be a singles star. But as a team, they worked for the time."

[6.0] "Thrasher could work in an era where that wasn? t necessarily needed. He had success with Mosh and became WWF and NWA tag team champs but that gimmick could only go so long on top despite being over and seemingly they never really recovered but still had great longevity and left a mark. A HOF worthy team despite a level of disrespect towards them that I can? t support."

[3.0] "Only well known with the Headbangers. Helped the co-trained the Big Show with Larry Sharpe. Not much by himself expect for the hardcore title at Wresltemania 2000. Not much memorable about him. He mainly stayed in New Jersey and the indy circuit. Mosh was a better wrestler. His moves weren't that great."
DanTalksRasslin wrote on 30.07.2016:
[5.0] "Thrasher was solid as half of the Headbangers with Mosh, with whom he had runs with the WWF and NWA Tag Titles as well as many other independent tag straps (as well as their own made-up Tag Team Championships of the Universe). Injuries prevented him from receiving the attempts at a singles push Mosh received, though ironically, Thrasher is the only of the two to hold a singles belt in the WWF with a less-than-one-day run as Hardcore Champ. Also had a hand in training several talents, including his partner Mosh as well as the Big Show. After the Headbangers had a short run in ROH a few years ago, they're still going on the indy circuit."

[3.0] "Annoying to look at, unconvincing as a physical threat, mediocre wrestler, Thrasher had a lot more cons to him than pros. At least Mosh had a decent look/physique. Thrasher was just total garbage. But he was acceptable enough as a C-Level tag team partner."
