[6.0] "He's is a solid, dependable performer who has built a respectable career on the British wrestling scene. With a no-nonsense style and a physically imposing presence, he's often played the role of the hard-hitting bruiser, and he plays it well. He brings a certain old-school toughness that lends credibility to any match he's part of. He thrives in heavy-hitting, physical bouts where his straightforward power-based offence can shine. Though he doesn't always grab the spotlight, he's the kind of wrestler who makes others look good, adding weight and intensity to feuds and title scenes."

[7.0] "Good powerhouse wrestler. He was one of the more notable names during the UK indy boom. Not the biggest guy in terms of size when you look at the bigger promotions. He was a good wrestler in the ring and had the aura of a top tier guy on the indies."

[5.0] "Got a great look and stands out as a big guy on the British indie scene, has a few impressive spots but I struggle to think of any stand out moments. Happy he seems to have got the contract he wanted after years of graft."

[7.0] "Rampage in the best words could be described as the UK Yoshihiro Takayama: he's a convincingly powerful heavyweight hoss that has really one role to be filled: being the big bully and throwing weight around. Rampage definitely doesn't have Takayama's charisma (I'd have to say he has pretty much none beyond look) or actual wrestling versatility but he's still a decent hand that, also much like Takayama, has independent companies jumping over themselves to have him around because he looks great and can make their babyfaces look even better in bouts. Just check how many different titles he's gotten over the years for proof of that. Rampage in terms of actual ring quality isn't really much to look at, he's a basic hoss that works best against more talented guys whom can squeeze the best qualities out of him and can't really work anything beyond a powerhouse hoss style. He fits that niche just fine, however. I'm curious about WWE picking him up but he's not exactly young and I fear he might be used more as a gatekeeper/occasional main eventer than anything else."

[7.0] "Rampage has that look that just says I am a pro-wrestler. He is he a big-man in British wrestling due to the stars of the British scene being on the smaller scale of things. I don't know if he will be a success in WWE due to the fact that as/if he moves up he will no longer be look like a big man with him being the average size on the WWE roster and there are other guys who are better in-ring talent with similar size."

[6.0] "Ok big man even though he is really not an actualy big man. Enjoyed his WCPW work, disliked his WOS work (even though that's more on WOS being awful). I think he can actually improve even though he is not that young anymore."

[9.0] "It takes a lot of talent to make your opponent look great in every match you participate in. I? d give Rampage a 10 but I believe his promo skills need a lot of work. Absolutely brilliant though."

[6.0] "Solid powerhouse, he can show off some cool display of power and has a decent side of technique too. Not a great worker but a good hand for sure, especially as a top dog figure."

[8.0] "in my opinion the best pure Heavyweight wrestler on the U. K. circuit - his power wrestling is top notch and technically he's preficient too, on the mic he's good and he can play face and heel well too although I feel he plays a better heel"

[8.0] "One of the best heavyweights in the UK. Amaizing wrestler and aggression. I'd have given him a 9, possibly 10 if it wasn't for his really weak and nervous mic skills"
