[1.0] "Ich finde ihn einfach nur peinlich in seiner Gesamtdarstellung und möchte mich dabei nicht einmal ausschliesslich auf seine Optik beziehen. Definitiv jemand von dem ich als Wrestlingfan nicht repräsentiert werden möchte, genau wegen solchen "Talenten", "Athleten" oder gar "Superstars" macht sich Professional Wrestling vor den Augen der Main Stream Kultur lächerlich und wirkt oft inkredibil. Falls es ein so häufig zitierter "Comedy Act" sein soll trifft dieser mein Humorzentrum wohl keineswegs, vielmehr treibt er mir beim Fernsehabend mit Bekannten von ausserhalb der Wrestling Bubble die Schamesröte ins Gesicht."
[8.0] "otis is so enjoyable to watch I love him and alpha academy. only an 8 because I dont think hes anything special in the ring but he is enjoyable. I understand why he might not be for everyone its a select type of humor and im ok with that. Hes pretty solid in tag matches with gable and I think if him and alpha academy keeps doing what they are doing I think they'll get more and more over."
[7.0] "Otis is a really decent wrestler, although he sometimes lacks in the ring (And of course, is overshadowed by Chad Gable, the best worker in current wwe for me). His gimnick is very goofy, but like someone like MickFoley/Dude Love, that goofiness really adds up and makes him very likable and funny. I hope he gets a title one day, even though he is not close to the top in his current state."
[10.0] "Otis is perfect in his role. He has a ridiculous amount of charisma that steals the show. He is funny but still believable as a threat. He is athletic for his size, strong, and hard hitting. He isn't flashy, but he doesn't need to be. He is so incredibly likeable and is must-watch for me in any segment. His stuff with Chad Gable has been the best part of WWE at times in the last few years. He is the definition of "making the most out of his minutes". I get that he isn't getting five stars from the observer, but that's not what I want from him."
[8.0] "Otis would fit in any era. He is a super great comedy wrestler and comedy promo. Was the best part in Heavy Machinery, was the best part in the storyline with Mandy Rose, is the best part of Alpha Academy-Maximum Male Models storyline. Probably could have had a feel-good run with the WWE Championship during COVID instead of The Miz, but for Otis is great in the position they have him in. Kind of a missed opportunity though, could have been much more."
[6.0] "Otis isn't the best in the ring, but he still deserves a 6/10 because he tries to improve, and he makes me laugh with Chad Gable. I would love to see their team break up but I don't see him going solo... He still has some improving to do but he will get there!"
[7.0] "Otis is a unique wrestler with an interesting look and personality. I preffered him in Heavy Machinery than Alpha Academy. He's a natural babyface. His team with Gable has been beat into the ground so its hard for be to be interested when they come on."
[9.0] "Otis is a total package. He can wrestle a good serious match, he can do comedy, he can talk on the mic, and he knows how to get a crowd behind him. He excels at everything he does no matter how ridiculous the storylines were, he got it over."
[5.0] "Not great in ring of course but he is kinda charismatic, his whole point is being a funny goofball and he does that well, good for what he does"
[5.0] "He's alright I suppose. I've never really watched an Otis match and thought wow that was really good. But he's more of a character wrestler I guess. I will say I was rooting for him big time in the Mandy Rose storyline, and seeing him win Money in the Bank was nice even if there was no chance of him ever winning the title."
[8.0] "He's really good right now. He started off as eh, eventually became alright but not MITB winner worthy.. then alpha academy came along and I enjoy his stuff way more than I did before, AA are one of the most entertaining teams right now. If he goes back to the goofy face he used to be, it'll work. And if he goes heel and joins MMM.. not only will it be funny, it'll also likely work. His improvement is crazy and he's also in his early 30s too which is nice, I look forward to talking about his improvement more in A year or two."
[5.0] "He's not great in the ring by any means, but he doesn't have to be. Otis ooses charisma and makes for a solid comedy character, but there's no way I can take him seriously as a threat to others in the ring."
[8.0] "The thing he currently has going with Chad Gable is one of the best things in wwe s midcard at the moment. Always liked him, either as a face or as a heel. A unique powerhouse that knows how to play to the crowd."
[6.0] "Otis is a decent comedy wrestler, and has had some good gimmicks, but other than that, there's not much there. His run in Heavy Machinery was fun, but that was because Otis made it fun. The Mandy Rose storyline was extremely fun to watch, and had me really invested. Now in Alpha Academy, I have to say, I love these two guys. Otis brings the power and a pinch of comedy from his Heavy Machinery days (it's there, you gotta look for it) to contrast with Chad's own comedy and beautiful ring work. However, Otis lacks in actual wrestling, and needs to figure out how to use his size to become a good wrestler."
[8.0] "One of the guys who grew on me. I thought at first when he came in doing the kids character tag team thing, followed by the angle with Mandy (which i heard was a real thing and that he really did have a crush on her), that he was miscast for someone who looked like he did, and wouldn't be around too long. However, when he aligned/teamed with Gable, and started showing a mean streak/ monster vibes by injuring guys left and right I said ok he's got something here. Because he started working the way someone who looks like him should work, dropped all of the childish antics he was doing before, and changed his look up a lot so that the new side of him would be taken seriously. Since the move to RAW, he's been a great utility player as both a singles and a tag, had solid matches with whoever they've put him in there with, and while alpha academy still does silly stuff here and there...they've at least got across to the audience that they're both legit and not people to mess with in a shoot if one went down."
[8.0] "A good worker and a good seller for his size. He is fast for a big man. I did not like his run in Heavy Machinery and the stuff with Mandy but his run with the Alpha Academy has been amazing. Tree Trunk Otis is great."
[7.0] "Overhated and underestimated. Otis has been proving his worth a lot recently on Raw, with his best run since that incredible story with Mandy Rose."
[7.0] "Until Heavy Machinery broke up, Otis was mediocre at best. His feud with Ziggler was good, but it was nothing out of the ordinary. I was afraid that without Tucker he would be lost and nothing would be achieved, but I was very wrong. Since Alpha Academy, Otis has had his best moment in his career, was the RAW Tag Team Champion, and has plenty of time on TV. I hope he will continue to grow and that WWE will not give him comedy gimnicks and stupid ideas like giving him a Money in The Bank."
[7.0] "Otis is fairly basic in the ring but is not bad at all. Both his main roster gimmicks have been great. Probably should be more protected than he is."
[4.0] "Ist halt ein Comedy Charakter, mehr kann man zu ihm fasst gar nicht sagen. Persönlich nicht mein Ding, aber erfüllt seine Zweck. Mit Guten Gegnern funktioniert, aber er kann ein Match auch nicht tragen 4/10"
[6.0] "Otis was lightning in a bottle when he was with his pairing with Mandy. It didn't last long but WWE tried to get everything they could out of it, to my displeasure. His work in Heavy Machinery was good and now he's great in Alpha Academy."
[7.0] "Otis was really underestimated with his comedy character and I think he will suffer with his legitimacy for a while because his run with the alpha academy is gold although Chad gable had gained the most benefits of it but as I said don't underestimate otis or his capabilities."
[7.0] "Otis' style isn't for everyone, but I miss his kind of worker. A walking piece of furniture that can plow through almost any kind of offense you throw at him, and it's not like he can't move either, Otis can definitely put in the work. His character work is also top tier, his program with Mandy Rose in 2020 was one of the best storylines on WWE at the time and Heavy Machinery was a great tag in their own right, and while others may miss the more comedic Otis and I'll admit I certainly do it's not like he hasn't gotten over and had more success as Chad Gable's heavy."
[5.0] "Symapthischer Kerl der einfach durch seine Erscheinung auffällt. Richtig eingesetzt macht Otis Spaß, bleibt aber natürlich als reiner In-Ring Performer limitiert."
[6.0] "Otis is a good talent that excels in a tag team setting. He has charisma through the roof and is naturally entertaining. His wrestling isn't bad either. Rarely botches and has a solid powerhouse style with some extra comedic charm. His heel run with Gable has been okay, but his time as Heavy Machinery was far more memorable. Solid talent who's charisma and charm are his main selling points."
[5.0] "Assets: Has the personality to succeed in a sports entertainment environment. Despite this, he has a pretty solid amateur wrestling background, also. Certainly isn't lacking in girth. - - - Flaws: Will he be given the shot to be more than a comedy character? Whether or not he can succeed in the major leagues as a singles wrestler remains to be seen. Probably wouldn't hurt his chances at promotion to tone up a bit. - - - Career Potential: Solid major league midcard/tag specialist with some upside."
[4.0] "why is this guy getting pushed over gable and tucker, everyone acts like hes amazing but i cant stand him. i would give him a 0 but it wont let me"
[0.0] "Disgusting wrestler. I don't understand how you can like him at all. He's very bad. absolutely everything. Although on the other hand, he is charismatic, but he does not serve to defeat Ziggler, Nakamura and Case MITB"
[5.0] "An ok wrestler that's very good when part of a tag team. Has some natural charisma and is fun to watch. Unfortunately, giving him MITB exposed a lot of his weaknesses and will hurt him in the long run."
[10.0] "Certainly one of the funniest wrestlers in the WWE right now. Even with his very imposing physique, he manages to be very dynamic in the ring, as proven by his Caterpillar (doing that while weighing 310 lbs is very impressive). And even though I don't see him being world champion at all, I'm looking forward to the day when he and Tucker are team champions. Ah, and the storyline with Mandy Rose is great."
[3.0] "I understand the appeal of Otis and comedy definitely has a place in wrestling, but to give him the briefcase over tons of more deserving talent made me sick."
[4.0] "Ja er sieht lustig aus, ja er hat einen lustigen Körperbau, ja es ist cool, dass er den Worm macht und ja er hat auch einigermaßen Comedy-Talent, alles schön und gut, kann man gerne machen. Aber bitte in der Undercard. Es ist wieder einmal typisch WWE, man hat einmal einen kleinsten gemeinsamen Nenner gefunden, wo alle sagen, ja das funktioniert, das ist nicht schlecht und sofort muss man es ausreizen und gibt Otis den MITB Koffer. Man muss bedenken, dass in diesem Laddermatch noch Aleister Black stand, der zur gleichen Zeit debutiert ist und ehemaliger NXT Champion ist und man entscheidet sich für Otis... Die Crowds werden spätestens, wenn er den World Title (Nicht 24/7) hält gegen ihn turnen und wieder einmal hat man durch übertriebenes Booking etwas zerstört, was gut ankommt. Das ist wirklich das erste mal, dass ich hoffe ein Wrestler failt den Cash-In. An sich ist er ja okay, im Ring nichts besonderes, aber eben ein solider Comedy Undercarder, nach dieser Logik hätte aber Heath Slater zehnmal World Champion sein müssen... Leider hat man mit dem MITB Sieg jetzt schon mein Wohlwollen ihm Gegenüber zerstört."
[7.0] "His in-ring work is nothing to admire but he's a very fun character. I enjoy seeing him on my screen. He makes me smile and I'm excited to see him improve over time."
"Everything about Otis is just awful from ring skills to mic or even storyline. Some people think that he is funny but he is cringe. Why someone like Otis gets a main event push by simply yelling "oh yea" and stars like cesaro never get a chance I hope someone somehow take that briefcase from him or its going to be such a waste for money in the bank three years in a row"
[0.0] "man, this guy became even worse by the time i wrote my rating for him. he became even worse in-ring performer than before. he dont have ANY charisma. he just moaning and screams "OH YEAH" and that is not charismatic, where People usually overrated him. he has zero talent and dont deserve any main event push, especially when people like Cesaro or Murphy in low card at best. and yes, FAT ? FUNNY"
[8.0] "Thankyou Otis for making my mother finally follow wrestling, if it wasen't for Otis my mum would not even bother watching wrestling she now watches most WWE programs and is more intrested in it thanks too this man Otis, i also enjoy his charecter and gimmick, the storyline with Sonjya Mandy Dolph and Otis was something from a soap drama but it was a great story. Otis will resume too grow on Smackdown and maybe a future Inter or Tag champ one day heck maybe even world if it gets the right wins in his wrestling career or Keep on worming everyone Otis and hip emotion too make us laugh."
[6.0] "I don't think we need him where he is right now but he's an entertaining character and perhaps I'm wrong and the reason these goofy characters typically fade is because WWE don't push them hard when the support and sympathy is there. It's not fair to let WWE's conditioning of me as a fan write Otis off as a waste of time. He's far from my favourite "comedy wrestler" (Hey, Colt Cabana, how you doing? ) but he has a spark."
[0.0] "He has zero in-ring skills, absolutely awful in the mic and he has a ridiculous finisher. Even his storyline with Mandy Rose is totally Boring shit. And some people thinks he is funny but the "Ow Yeah" thing is just cringy. But after all I want him to become a Universal Champion just because to see how WWE going to screwed up in the ratings."
[1.0] "Otis is the most overrated wrestler of all time! Worse than strowman, corbin and even goldberg! Can you imagine that otis becomes world champion ? With that elbow drop as a finisher move ! He is 0 in ring ! His wrestling skill is awful. Taker is much better than otis, but whrere is he and where is otis."
[5.0] "Otis is pretty good for a tag team division, but still very, very, VERY green for a solo push. He has his own specific charisma, he interacts well with the audience (it's not relevant due to the pandemic), and he has developed a comedian talent, but right now he is absolutely hopeless as a single wrestler, and he needs to improve in many aspects, especially as in-ring performer. The idea that a ball-shaped giant version of Eugene might win the Intercontinental championship haunts me, and I'll be upset if his victories over Dolph Ziggler escalate into something bigger soon."
[2.0] "Otis schaut für einen Athleten mit seiner Historie nicht gut aus, hat keinen Star Appeal, kein Charisma und ein grauenhaftes Gimmick. Man sollte ihn zum Ringer umformen und nicht zum noch schlechteren George Steele Abklatsch. Dazu kommt, dass ich im Ring bisher vielleicht 2-3 solide bis gute Performances von ihm gesehen habe - meist wirkt er noch grün und unbereit. Vielleicht sollte man ihn mal technisch wrestlen lassen? Jedenfalls ist das bisher von ihm mangelhaft."
[3.0] "Ist halt richtig sympathisch. So ein Forrest Gump für Arme. Im Ring passiert dann nicht viel, dazu fehlen einfach die Skills. Sympathisch wie sonst was aber kein guter Wrestler, gerettet von der WWE durch die Mandy Rose und Dolph Ziggler Fehde."
[0.0] "To be honest, I considered a zero way too harsh when thinking about how I would rate Otis, but then I remembered that I cannot think of any positives regarding him: The guy's not terrible in the ring, but he doesn't have the extreme stature of a big man like Strowman, nor the athleticism of a big man like Killian Dain. He's not in the best of shape either, which I think is a bit harsh, I'm normally not that fussed on wrestlers' body shapes, but his outfit doesn't complement it well at all. But I think his biggest flaw is his character; Sorry, but I'm not exactly fussed on a pervy version of Eugene, his whole storyline with Mandy Rose is just downright creepy and I cannot find myself getting behind him at all. At least Tucker has a decent character and has a great combination of athleticism and height."
[8.0] "I can't even fathom not liking Otis. Sure, he's lacking a little in pure in-ring workrate, but good lord, this guy has JYD charisma. Otis is awesome, that's all that I can say."
[4.0] "Schwankt bei mir zwischen unterhaltend und nervig. Kann ich mir als Singles Wrestler kaum vorstellen, würde da auch möglicherweise untergehen. Zusammen im Team mit Tucker für die Größe und das Gewicht besonders agil und beide harmonieren prächtig miteinander. Ald Comedy Act bei Heavy Machinery und in der Lower Midcard recht gut aufgehoben, aber für mehr reicht es derzeit definitiv noch nicht, aber dass kann sich ja noch ändern."
[8.0] "Iam gonna start by saiyng that the gimmick is original and very funny! Otis is very strong and and naturaly charismatic, maybe the only problem is the kinda limited move set."
[8.0] "This might be a generous rating, especially at this point in his career, but I feel pretty good about it still. By no means a 5* match machine, but excellent at every important facet of his role. A comedy hoss is a rare breed, and he pulls off the unusual niche with flying colours, exuding enough charming goofball charisma that even segments which should be cringeworthily atrocious are usually still entertaining. Could just as easily dial back on the silliness or ramp it up even further going forwards, and barring any lolWWE unsalvageable writing or overexposure, seems capable of pulling off pretty much whatever they throw at him. Still young at 27, and already a reasonably promising if unspectacular hoss in the ring, who plays well off his partner in both matches and segments. Probably has a higher ceiling as a tag wrestler, but I think there's potential in him to at least dabble in some singles and make it worthwhile. Genuinely see him as a bit of a sleeper prospect for WWE's midcard moving forwards and one to keep an eye on, especially if you don't mind a splash of well-done slapstick in your wrestling."
[6.0] "In NXT, Otis was a lot of fun to watch. Though Heavy Machinery was not a top tier tag act, they were a good addition to the scene & Otis was clearly the most appealing part of the group. His comedy was kept low key & was not too in-your-face. Well, the main roster ruined that as quickly as possible. Instead of Otis having some well timed comedy to add to a mostly serious team, Heavy Machinery was thrust into the low brow, pure comedy role the instant they arrived on Raw. Otis grunting a pretty girls, him always eating, & the Caterpillar spot nonstop; any time Heavy Machinery is on television, it's hard to sit through. I'd like to think there might still be a way to save this act, but knowing the main roster's creative team, I know that's just a pipedream."
[6.0] "I'm a big fan of Otis. He's strong as hell, moves well, looks unique, and is agile for his size. Plus, he's so damn charismatic, and is like a Germlin from the movie in the way that he can be disarmingly adorable and terrifying a second later."
[8.0] "Hat gegen AoP durchaus In-Ring-Skill gezeigt. Ansonsten bin ich mir nicht ganz sicher, ob mit ihm etwas nicht ganz stimmt oder ob das zum Gimmick gehört, aber sei's drum. Zusammen mit Tucker Knight gut aufgehoben. UPDATE: Ebenso wie bei Tucky hoch auf 8."
[8.0] "Not only does Otis Dozovic have charisma and he's funny and he has a fun tag team going on with Tucker Knight as Heavy Machinery, but this week on NXT he had a match against Tommaso Ciampa, that was his first singles match on NXT TV, and he made a damn good first impression and put on an impressive performance and against the champion no less! Otis is a national treasure!"
[7.0] "Er ist wirklich ungewöhnlich. Ein Big Man der auch so ein bisschen auf die Comedyschiene geht und dennoch bedrohlich wirkt. Deswegen finde ich, dass seine größte Stärke ganz klar sein Charisma ist, was man auch an den Interaktionen mit den Crowds sieht. Da würde ich ihm 8 Punkte geben. Im Ring und am Mic würde ich ihm jeweils 6 Punkte geben. Im Ring ist er ein solider, zuverlässiger Big Man der nie überragend aber immer anständig worked und am Mic ist es teilweise zwar sehr drüber aber irgendwie trotzdem unterhaltsam. Insgesamt aufgerundete 7 Punkte, da ich bei ihm auch noch viel Potenzial sehe."
[9.0] "Has a great thing going with Heavy Machinery and seems to have some really hilarious charisma too. Can easily become a fan favourite handled correctly."
[2.0] "Unterhält mich einfach nicht. Sein Stil kann mich im Ring nicht überzeugen und als Tag Team Wrestler halte ich ihn für völlig Fehl am Platz. Anders als viele hier sehe ich auch nichts von seinem angeblichen Charisma. Er ist nicht überzeugend im Ring, hat kaum Charisma und am Mikrofon wirkt er auch nicht gut auf mich. 2 Punkte."
[7.0] "Entertaining performer with undeniable charisma and crowd appeal. Could maybe get more serious in his style and not go for the easy laughs and support from the crowd. Massively strong and some more edge to his character would give more credibility. Otherwise could be the comedy act and not fulfil potential. And that potential is big"
