Mark Lewin

[5.0] "It would be great to see some older footage because when he was a shell of his old self - there was still something there. Problem is, I've only seen his 1980's work. He looked REALLY GREAT physically; for his age and time in the business he had a fantastic body and I respect that. I thought he was perfect in 6 man tag matches with The One Man Gang & Killer Tim Brooks. But... the barking or "yootz" or whatever got very annoying. And the bit with him and Gary Hart "maybe putting something in a towel" was NOT GOOD, because the two didn't hide enough the fact that there was literally nothing there. Bad acting was bad. He could have moments of good solid watchable chemistry & showed an undeniably strong grasp on pacing/psychology buUut, would more often than not resort to overhand chops over and over and over and over and over and...would cause matches to drag on and feel longer than they were. 4.75 rounded up."

[8.0] "Still a useful veteran when pro wrestling was hitting its stride in the 1980s. He kept himself in great condition, could go in the ring was great at playing a gruff, dirty heel."

[7.0] "Loved seeing this guys work as one of Sullivans cronies, he played the heel role so well no matter where he went"

[9.0] "I'm surprised there're so few votes here! Mark Lewin was an excellent worker, a great technical wrestler and a great heel and he stayed over for a loooong time. Check out his matches if you haven't already, he's one of the most underrated worker of the territory days."

[8.0] "stayed over for a long long long time... he had been wrestling 30 years when we saw him in world class and florida sadly he might be worth an even higher rating but based on my limited knowledge I can only rate him for what I know of his accomplishments and not based too much on my own viewing. people that saw him and talk about him on the podcasts... they know. they say this guy could headline a feud in the hottest territories with ease."

[8.0] "A vastly underrated wrestler, he spent years as a face before becoming a truly creepy heel. He had a strong grasp of ring psychology and was a great worker"

[8.0] "When people think of Lewin they think of him during his run as the Purple Haze and his association with Sullivan. Lewin was so much more than that. He did some great face work up in Detroit against the Sheik. He was better technically than many know. If you watch his older stuff you'll see he was much more of a well rounder wrestler than he is remembered for."
