[6.0] "Good talent from NXT, I hope they can and know how to use it well in programming. Otherwise, I think he'll remain a superstar attempt."

[4.0] "James is fine. He has some shit storylines in wXw and his in-ring is solid if unexciting - much like his microphone work. His strength comes from his ability to connect with his fans in Germany. I believe James will end up being the next Timothy Thatcher for them."

[10.0] "Unimaginably underrated, I do wish more people will got to see how good he is in 2018. He caught my eye on some CZW show and it was a very pleasant suprise to see him booked in Germany. wXw makes stars from US guys (Gresham, Starr) or gives them a new life (Thatcher) and they did the same with AJ as this year is heading to the end. Outstanding technical wrestler and brawler, works well in every enviroment & against any opponent, and he's very good, charismatic talker. It's rare to see anyone so well-rounded and good in every aspect of pro wrestling, but he's one of those rare examples."
