OSKAR

[10.0] "For someone who is as tall as hikuleo/talla tonga, OSKAR is actually quite good for his size- he's got aura, movesets, presence, and is one hell of a seller, but nobody would recognize his talent since yuto-ice gets the fame but he is still well known for his tag team partnership with ice so that's fine."

[8.0] "One of the most gifted individuals in the industry right now, the amount of tools that he has as a tall solid wrestler is unique, his participation in G1 proves that he's not only a tag team specialist, but also an underrated singles competitor. Amazing storyteller inside the ring with a huge struggling showcase of selling and face expressions. Without a doubt he is on of my favourites."

[10.0] "He's very underrated when it comes to singles run since he is more so a tag team partner to yuto-ice, but check him out his matches. Besides that, he is a really good tag team partner and singles hope he gets more opportunities on wrestling singles in the future."

"I love his intensity, especially in the backstage interviews, I really hope I get to see him properly murder some people at some point."

[10.0] "I really do have high hopes of oskar not only being a tag team wrestler but also being a singles wrestler- dude is pretty solid being in singles competition alongside being in tag team division with his brother yuto-ice"

[10.0] "This guy is the best young wrestler coming out of Germany in quite a while. He plays his part so well both in tag team matches and singles matches, although I do hope we see him strive in singles matches more often. He's a big man but he doesn't fit your usual generic one he knows how to stand out from the pack and that's honestly what I think is gonna take him to the top eventually."

[9.0] "He can play ball when it comes to singles and tags with yuto ice (aka the knockout brothers which we know how they are) and he really has a good intimidating presence of his own. The only criticism I would say is that he needs more singles matches to prove how he can stand out as a singles wrestler since he already stood out enough as a tag team wrestler and his looks (we're not talking about his young lion days, we're talking about Knockout Brother OSKAR) but hey"

[10.0] "When the Knockout Brothers returned to New Japan Pro-Wrestling last year and quickly captured the IWGP Tag Titles, I was immediately a fan of their work and chemistry but held the belief that Yuto-Ice would eventually become a main event level star, whilst OSKAR would find a spot as a solid big man in the midcard scene. My belief on Yuto hasn't changed, however KOB's stellar run throughout 2026 thus far has convinced me that OSKAR should be right alongside him at the top of this promotion one day. For a man of his size, OSAKR's selling is masterful, and he's able to balance that perfectly with his work on top as a dominant giant. Potentially the best foreign talent the promotion has on their hands at the time of writing and quite possibly the best foreign big man Japan has seen since Vader."

[8.0] "With Yuto being so damn charismatic, I feel like Big Oskar gets a bit disrespected in their dynamic. He's waaay more than just the tall dude of the team. His moves are very high impact, simple and effective, but what does it for me is his selling and emotions. Even in singles matches he is very very good. Hope the future is bright for him !"

[7.0] "OSKAR is a very good big man. It's a little early into his career to tell how he's gonna fair in the long run but thus far he's a darn good tag team performer alongside Yuto-Ice. Whether the Knock Out Brothers remain a dedicated tandem or split into singles acts is gonna be a big driving question for his career - the history of professional wrestling is littered with the bones of big men bookers thought were gonna be big stars when given a solo push."

[7.0] "So far he has potential. I feel that he could very well be a great monster heel in the next year if he manages to improve and impress consistently. He performed really well against Taichi/Ishii and his singles match against Umino was good too."

[6.0] "A giant in the ring, especially for NJPW - and a solid worker with a lot of upside. He stands out as the weaker half of the Knockout Brothers compared to Yuto Nakashima, but Oskar is already showing his potential, he just needs ring time to put all the pieces together."

[7.0] "Moves well for sure, but needs a lot more seasoning right now. I see myself changing this rating soon."

[8.0] "A prodigious talent. I am firmly of the belief that he will be one of the best wrestlers that Europe will ever produce. On the road to being as good as WALTER."

[7.0] "A big man among the lions is exactly a huge turning point. Oskar might still be green, but given the time, just like the others, will prove to be a hell of a german monster. Can speak english and japanese perfectly, so he can go anywhere to polish his skills when the time comes."

[7.0] "This guy has a lot of potential. He moves very well for his size. Something about him says sky-high potential to me, but I don't know why exactly. He seems to have a natural understanding of the wrestling ring."

[7.0] "What an impressive looking dude, has a look you cannot teach. Moves well for a man of his size and has a good intensity. Lots of easy comparisons to Gunther and we'll have to wait to see if he can be 'the next gunther' but right now it looks like he has all the tools to do it. Yes he doesn't have a strong 'personality, signature or finisher' yet but he's a young lion... that's the point. I look forward to seeing him develop and I will be following his excursion whenever and wherever it may be."

[0.0] "Let me explain... No personality, no signature/ finisher, no reason to be his fan, no way he 'll be ever a medium wrestler. Must I continue? DUD"

[7.0] "Leube is passionate and powerful, everything NJPW needs in a rookie his size. This dude definitely needs a little bit of work, but after that, I'm thinking United Empire as his destination in a stable."

[7.0] "One look at this dude and I think about WALTER. He has the look, and already has a feel about him right now. NJPW may have found their own version of WALTER right here. I am interested to see if he puts on a lot more size, and if he does study what makes WALTER who and what he is, and incorporates that into himself to mold himself into an eerily similar type of monster."

[7.0] "One of NJPW's most intriguing Young Lions. His size alone would put him in line for good things after his excursion, as there is always a place for an imposing gaijin. But he's much more than just a large frame, he immediately jumps out to you because of his intense fire and passion, he's not afraid of any spotlight put on him. He's fairly crisp in the ring and moves really swiftly for his size. He's a good seller as well, Being a Young Lion there isn't much else to write home about with Oskar yet but I expect a very solid career ahead of him as a heavyweight gaijin beast. Given his heritage he seems a perfect fit for United Empire after excursion."

[7.0] "Pour certaines raisons j'ai le sentiment que Oskar peut devenir un super bon catcheur une fois qu'il aura une gimmick. Une chose est sûre, il marque les esprits dans les matchs et se met vite en avant."

[7.0] "Saw him wrestle for the first time at Historic X-Overand all I have to say is that he will certainly be one of the best heavyweights in NJPW. For a rookie he is pretty much consistent and very energic despite his size. His fighting style powerfully reminds me of WALTER (Gunther) as he resembles the latter's in-ring techniques and charisma. He has a very bright future."
