[6.0] "I'm tickled that this dude is overrated and that the majority of the ratings are solely Lucha Underground based. Mil Muertes is an easy 8/10 and that run greatly elevates my score. But Ricky in Puerto Rico and Mexico actually doing his baseline thing is a very, very different story. Wrestling's greatest benificiary of post-production?"

[10.0] "The ultimate "Final Boss" character in wrestling, he has an aura and impose respect with his mere presence and the fact that he is good enough to also put good matches makes him even better. a true legend."

[10.0] "Big and scary, yet fast and very capable. Good all around wrestler and I loved him as Judas. He is good at his character building and is able to be a gate keeper in any org he is in."

[10.0] "Mil Muertes rules! he doesn't look like that much of a big man but compared to the others on the roster who were 5'5 he was basically a giant, he had sweet matches with Fenix and Prince Puma and he did a sick spear."

[10.0] "Another one of my favorites, as judas mesias TNA didn't do a great job on storylines, in lucha underground they have made a great job with him, on AAA he was by far the greatest foreign wrestler and the one that made triple AAA dominate CMLL for a long time, he is a power wrestler, a hardcore wrestler, any kind of battle he could do it, why doesn't wwe has called yet, a great stable could be made, wyatt, mesias, Harper, taker, kane, ministry 2. 0"

[10.0] "When I think about his run as Judas Mesias in TNA, nothing great comes to mind. But as Mil Muertes in Lucha Underground everything is near perfect!"
HeadCheese wrote on 05.12.2016:
[8.0] "Even though is about average size he projects himself as monster Lucha Underground, TNA, or Wrestling Society X and does impressive moves. That reason I'm rating higher because usually needs a great dance partner."
The Chosen One wrote on 23.07.2016:
[8.0] "In AAA he was my favorite wrestler as El Mesias . He is a really good brawler and can always put on a fantastic match in AAA or Lucha Underground. And speaking of Lucha Underground the Mil Muertes gimmick is great and he plays it very well. Overall he is one of the best brawlers you will ever see. 8/10."

[9.0] "Mil Meurtes feels like a terrifying, unstoppable monster, el mesias is ok with a odd classic here and ther, judas mesias was really just a kane ripoff though"

[6.0] "Normal brouler, capable of a great match. There are many within the independent wrestling promotions, and Muertes little stands. But Lucha Undeground he picked the perfect gimmick, through which Mil looks great."

[8.0] "Just don't ever give him a mic and expect him to speak in English. Mil Muertes is one of the craziest things in Lucha Underground. I loved the throne."
DanTalksRasslin wrote on 19.08.2015:
[8.0] "Mesias has been a mainstay of AAA for a decade and has also appeared numerous times north of the border, including roles in TNA and WSX and, years ago, even an appearance on ECW Hardcore TV. Often plays characters with a dark edge, which his presence and power-based ring style fully compliments. Now making a new name for himself in Lucha Underground as the masked Mil Muertes, one of the company's top (and most interesting) villains."

[10.0] "After the recent Grave Consequences match in Lucha Underground, I need to give credit where it is due. While he isn't the most technical, Muertes is a terrifying character, with an incredible intensity, and a fantastic storyteller in the ring."

[8.0] "Spitehis age, he still provide a good solid matcheswith the correct oponent, remember the matches against Dr. Wagner and L. A Park, this is the style of El Mesias, solid and strongh kind of wrestling, now by the injuries hi is apart of wrestling, hope he still beeing gopod when he returns to the rings."
