[6.0] "An evergreen underneath/enhancement talent fixture in the south who was around for freakin ever. Seems like the kinda cat that would be in or just likes to watch John Waters films. He makes losing fun to watch but that's really about it. Career Highlight: the WCW Battle Bowl '93 ordeal. 4.25 rounded down. EDIT: write up remains the same but *by '93, he was quite the worker* & made for very easy to watch wrestling. 5.75"

[4.0] "Rip Rogers was a decent jobber in most of the bigger federations, and a mid to high card star in the lower. I thought he was very technically sound as well as entertaining in the ring. I know he is now a grumpy old man, but I rate based on work rate, charisma, as well as importance in wrestling. Nothing great with Rip but was definitely adequate as a wrestler."

"Only seen a couple of matches on SMW but I thought he was OK to be fair. I liked his axehandle off the top to the outside in the SMW TV episode 3. He looked a bit like a cheap Ric Flair."

[8.0] "Excellent jobber! Did very well in may territories such as Texas, Pacific Northwest, Mid-Atlantic and Georgia. His promos were great. He also did well as a trainer for OVW. Trained guys like Mark Henry, Brock Lesnar, John Cena, Batista and Randy Orton. His career span was average. His health has been up and down."
