[2.0] "Hard to get much worse. The only reasons I don't rank lower is because there are wrestlers who don't do anything in the room but stand there -- those 0s and 1s. Nelson was the opposite of charisma."

[6.0] "Nelson Royal has lasted more than 99% of the wrestlers. Very sound in the ring, and a really good heel in his own territory. I first remember him in the mid-Atlantic region and was a very serviceable lower to mid-level baby face. He had a nice run with Sam Houston and was very credible in the ring and during interviews."

[3.0] "Only seen his Mid Atlantic stuff, where he just came out from nowhere already old as dirt. Ever seen the episode of The Simpsons , "The Lastest Gun in the West"? Nelson Royal reminds me of Buck McCoy, only short. I pretty much can't stand this guy and he seems brazenly shoe horned in just to drag down the career of Sam Houston. 3 points because I've always liked that episode. "Goodbye, Bart. Never bother me again.""
