[5.0] "Stiff kicking offense mostly with a side of technician. However his mic skills are a disaster. He thinks he is clever but hits the punchline without confidence, so it doesn't hit the mark. It sounds like he is reading from a script, doesn't come out sounding natural. It's strange because he very intelligent and well spoken when he writes. In the ring he seems like he'd be solid but then makes a lot of mistakes, botches, and mistiming. I actually liked his in-ring work in 2005 (masked) more than 2010+."

[8.0] "Really solid in ring performer, always had solid work and a real standout in the early years of Chikara. I for one miss Gran Akuma."

Paul Allain wrote on 30.12.2013:

[9.0] "As a long-time Chikara veteran, Gran Akuma accomplished many things, including being a Campeones de Parejas and Torneo Cibernetico Winner. He as a wide array of impressive kick-based offense and his stoic intense offence is breath-taking. He also proved to be as efficient as a menacing heel or an ass-kicking hero. Expending through time into CZW, DGUSA and FIP, he should be a tremendous asset to any company who gives him an opportunity."
