[6.0] "He was good as enhancement talent, seemed like a natural in the ring. As a Pitbull I liked his look and enjoyed the presentation. His tag partner did him no favors and could be outright bland because of the aforementioned. Once he was forced into a singles role, his limited arsenal was exposed but I appreciated the idea: He's so much brawn that you could hit him with chairs, hit him with high impact maneuvers, hit him with tandem offense... but he gets an arm up. If you create him on HCTP his strength is an 8.5 but his technique stat is about a 4. Don't worry, his endurance is a 10. It's a good idea to have a guy like this on your roster. Five point five rounded up."

[2.0] "Pitbull #2 was a really poor wrestler, who, through the magic of Paul Heyman, was presented in a manner where it looked like he could work."

[6.0] "Great as the second half of The Pitbulls. Held the ECW tag and TV titles. He also showed he could do more than just brawl in his singles matches with guys like Shane Douglas and Chris Jericho."
