[6.0] "My rating is more with how he was used. I definitely think he was a unique smaller guy that could have done much more had he not been used as enhancement talent. It? s refreshing to see a little guy who is more old school than high flying but he was never really given a chance to let it shine."

[8.0] "I think he's great especially for a guy his size. His fighting style is great and he's an underdog. He is a little big man. I love his lumberjack gimmick with the ax and the long bushy beard. His promos are awesome. He is best known in Ring of Honor. I don't understand people's negative comments here. If you don't like him then too bad so sad. He's like Jonathan Gresham, Rey Mysterio, Brian Kendrick and Spike Dudley"

[5.0] "Gizzly Redwood is just completely underrated. He has become a cult figure in Ring of Honor, and Chikara, however he is far better than cult figures should ever be. His small size helps add on an incredible amount of energy and agility. He also sells moves like no one else in the business."
