[1.0] "just horrible. literally the worst female wresler ive seen in years. couldnt cut a promo to save her life, was horrible on the mic and in ring. just awful all around"
[4.0] "Never liked her, awful promo, mediocre in the ring, no charisma at all, failed miserably as a babyface, not a good heel, had "go away" heat with me, don't miss her one bit."
[5.0] "Another what if in WWE Lacey Evans could have been a star had it not been for her being in booking hell WWE just didn't know what to do with her after the southern belle gimmick had finished the marine gimmick was a complete failure and while she had talent she couldn't get over with the fans"
[6.0] "I've just learned that his contract with WWE has just ended, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to review his career. After 8 years in the WWE, she's never had a chance to win anything. A forgettable rivalry with Becky Lynch and a rivalry to forget with Charlotte Flair... I thought she was pretty good on the mic and pretty confident, but maybe a little less so in the ring. Although she did have a good Last Woman Standing against Natalya! Her return from maternity leave was a disaster, although the gimmick could have worked... A wrestler with potential but a mediocre career..."
[3.0] "Lacey Evans at one point, was supposed to be a star in the WWE- but after failing to impress in the ring, failing to connect with the fans, and failing to maintain any of her pushes during career- has become one of the least entertaining acts in WWE. She does have an impressive, athletic and striking appearance, and looks like she can physically handle most of the female talent in WWE but something has not clicked with her since day one."
[3.0] "Lacey is a good in ring hand but she has struggled due to her mic skills, bad booking and lack of connection with a crowd. Lacey was good but never stood out in NXT so I was surprised when they called her up and in hindsight might have been a little early. She can put on good matches in the ring but her characters have never gotten over. Tried to use Ric Flair to help her but the crowd was not going for it. Her return seemed to have her in line for a big push but then indecisive and inconsistent booking hurt her. Not sure where she goes from here."
[2.0] "Joke of a professional wrestler, nothing much to speak about in the positive. Her character work is turn of the screen bad, and her gimmick has been so muddled and mangled. during her time in WWE that I don't think there is a future for her left in professional wrestling as a result. Has never done a single memorable thing in the ring or on the mic."
[4.0] "Im Ring für mich maximal nur solide. Und ihre Gimmick-Entwicklung/-Wechsel gehen zwar in die richtige Richtung haben aber gaaaaaaaanz weit unten mit dem unlogischen Southern Belle-Gimmick angefangen. Eine Südstaatenschöhnheit würde nie so etwas "Anstößiges" wie körperliche Betätigung a la Wrestling ausüben - sie als Kämpferin darzustellen war der Bedeutung dieses Charakters komplett entgegengestellt. Dann war sie auf einmal alleinerziehende Mutter und vor allem Ex-Marine und Patriotin. Ich mag weder Soldaten noch Stolz auf menschengeschaffene örtliche Abgrenzungen. Als man diese neue Seite zunächst mit ihrem alten Südstaaten-Gimmick vermischte, hätte es von mir hier vielleicht sogar maximal nur einen Punkt gegeben. Auch die neuerliche Ausrichtung auf ihr Dasein als Mutter und Ex-Marine war fürchterlich, weil man sie als Face pushen wollte, obwohl keiner es wollte. Jetzt als arroganter Heel gefällt sie mir zum allerersten Mal zumindest ein ganz klein wenig. Da ich hier sogar noch Potenzial nach oben sehe, gebe ich insgesamt mal knappe vier Punkte."
[0.0] "Insanely self-obsessed, doesnt have anything good in the ring, for gods sake her finisher was a single PUNCH. She is terrible at playing her character, whether its the stereotypical 60s house-wife or former US veteran, its really bad all around. Plus, she had the audacity to tell Sammy Guevara he couldnt roll. I dont care who you are, or who you are a fan of, we can all admit sammy is a thousand times better in the ring. Constantly pushed only to come out to a dead crowd no matter how much shes pushed. Unbelievably bad."
[9.0] "One of the best female athletes in WWE history. Lacey is impeccable in the ring and one of the best heels that have passed through the company. She is currently lost on the roster but I still believe in her potential. She just needs more opportunities."
[4.0] "There is potential but so far I am not seeing it. She is not a good wrestler YET. And here promos are a mixed mag depending on if she is a face or a heel. I honestly think under this Triple H regime she needs a career reset."
[6.0] "I like her, I think she's okay. She was a bit too green when she got transferred to the main roster but she made progress. She's decent in the ring, but the management has no idea for her. The character of the "traditionalist" was good, but the current, frequent image changes are very harmful to her."
[8.0] "I like Lacey. Awesome heel, great gimmicks (Southern Belle is the best). Beautiful moonsault. Works for a company that has no idea what to do with her! Hopefully that will change under Triple H."
[6.0] "Lacey has shown some impressive agility with her moonsault, and she is physically very powerful. On top of that, she is a hot blonde - this fits the profile Vince McMahon looks for in women, but somehow, he fumbled multiple times with her. With a past in the marines, WWE had given her the gimmick of being the "sassy southern belle" - which is as ridiculous as it sounds. They didn't feel like playing up her military background until after she returned from her pregnancy. Strangely, WWE managed to screw that up as well, making her into a trauma dumper that demanded respect. This was supposed to make her a face, but to the fans, it came across like a heel demanding cheers. You can see the problem here - she is known for not-so-good gimmicks, and it's not her fault."
[5.0] "Talent ist unbestreitbar vorhanden, aber ihre bisherigen Gimmicks ("Sassy Southern Belle", bzw. das Marine Gimmick und das ich nenne es mal das "Tränendrüsen-"Gimmick ("Bla, bla - schwere Kindheit... blabla Marine-Storys ....blablabla keinen richtigen Vater gehabt ... blablabla ...) mitsamt der Matchverweigerungstaktik - tut mir leid - waren und sind alle Rohrkrepierer. Das 50er-Jahre als quasi Pin-up-Girl ("SSB") ist hier exemplarisch zu nennen. Ich frage mich: Wofür steht Lacey Evans? Lange Siegesserie? ZERO! Cooles oder emotionales oder nachvollziehbares Gimmick? NOPE! Wichtige oder interessante Storylines in denen sie steckt oder zumindest involviert ist? 0, 0 VORHANDEN! Charisma? Etwas vorhanden, aber nicht im Übermaß ...und schon gar keine Charismabombe wie ein Ultimate Warrior z. B. wenigstens. Move-Set bis auf den Finisher "The Womens Right" & den Moonsault höchstens Standard. Versteht mich nicht falsch, aber es fehlt mir der Zündfunke.Könnte aber zusammen mit ihrer Tochter emotionale Geschichten erzählen. Mir schwebt z. B. ein Frauen-Tag-Team mit Mandy Rose vor - mit Namen "Flexing Kangaroo's" - beide im "Marilyn -Monroe Look" mit Spiegeln und der Auftrittsmusik von " The Narcissist" Lex Luger mit Albino-Kanguru's im Bauchtragen-Look; WOBEI BEIDE VOR DEN SPIEGELN POSEN. Das wäre cool. Oder sie könnte auch ein Talkshow-Segment bekommen: Die Sendung würde ich "EVANS-ESCENCE (statt "Evanescence" = Vergänglichkeit) nennen."
[7.0] "Such a fun gimmick and played to perfection. She's not impressive inside the ring but makes up for it with everything else she brings to the table."
[7.0] "I enjoy Lacey a lot. She's a great character work and a very convincing heel. She can work her sex appeal very well too. In ring she can be sloppy if she tries to do stuff she clearly can't do like springboard moves, however I think if she sticks to technical wrestling she's quite decent and can put on a decent match with the right opponent. I just find her extremely entertaining as a wrestler, even tho she's far from perfect. I'd say she's a diamond in the rough"
[4.0] "No disrespect to Lacey Evans, I totally respect her for serving our country. Also on a side note, she is in a very exclusive club of people who have been begged better off on RAW and Smackdown than in NXT. This is because she thrives under Vince McMahons vision of ? sports entertainment? rather than Triple H? s vision for pro wrestling. Lacey Evans also has a character which is well done as both a baby face or a heel. However, Lacey Evans has been fed a lot of pushes and title matches, including being placed in a 3 month program with Becky Lynch, who was red hot off her WrestleMania 35 win, and she even was reportedly slated to win the RAW Women? s title in 2021 before pregnancy. Unfortunately for Lacey some of her segments and aspects of her character can be improved, and the quality of her matches is substandard in comparison to the other top women of WWE."
[2.0] "She does a few cool moves in the ring and her background in the military is interesting but other than that I don't enjoy watching her. Her character really isn't for me and I find it annoying. She has now had terrible feuds with basically all the 4HW, culminating recently with Rick and Charlotte Flair which crippled the women's division for weeks. She recently got pregnant, so congrats to her! At least we didn't have to suffer through her taking the title from Asuka."
[3.0] "Spielt ihr Gimmick wirklich gut, was auch gleichzeitig ihre größte Stärke ist. Im Ring allerdings überschaubar (ihr Moonsault ist gut) und der Versuch sie als Babyface zu etablieren scheiterte, was man aber bei diesem heellastigen Gimmick erahnen konnte."
[6.0] "Another wrestler who is all about looks rather than in ring skill. Lacey Evans has decent in-ring skills but at times can be a little stale. She is improving and her charisma seems stale. A decent wrestler with average charisma that is improving overtime."
[6.0] "Good promo and character work. Seeing her on social media she is very into her character and presentation, often keeping kayfabe which I very much appreciate. In the ring is where she falters. She simply doesn't have a lengthy enough stint in developmental, and they fast tracked her, basically killing any type of progress. She can do an awesome Kid Kash-like moonsault, but that's it. She's basic as hell and very sloppy, and even though she is 30, I do think she can improve."
[10.0] "WWE messed up her development last year. You don't take a diamond with her upside and throw her away into a match against Becky Lynch. She should have stayed in NXT for anothe year with a dominant reign as champion then unleashed her. In spite of that this woman has it all. The looks, the charisma, sense of humor, improved work rate, a mother, came from nothing. Everything a promotion should look for in a woman she has. People that hate on her are just scum of the earth really. If I could rate her a 25 I would."
[2.0] "Lacey Evans is a very green wrestler with a fairly average charisma. the two points go for his good presence with the fans. she was was call-up too early by WWE and should have stayed a year or two more at NXT"
[9.0] "Single-handedly getting me back into modern wrestling. My era was from the early 80s until around 2001 when WCW was acquired by WWF. That ended all of the competition for me and I felt it got bland for a while. Her charisma as both a heel and face has made me start watching again and start going back to watch the era I missed. Her technical ability isn't great but the charisma and commitment to kayfabe (mostly) makes up for it."
[6.0] "Promo work is fine, in-ring work is fine. Nothing fantastic about her, but she's not bad. She just shouldn't be a main eventer like she is portrayed as atm. Keep her in the midcard for a while so she can continue to develop."
[2.0] "Lacey Evans is just too green if you compare to her current push. She's just too sloppy in the ring, she seems nice, & have a great presence with fans but when it comes to the in-ring performance, it's just not good."
[6.0] "Lacey Evans isn't that good in the ring although it seems that she has improved quite a bit but what makes Lacey Evans even a mild bit interesting is the fact that she is a very compelling story teller and a character worker. If she continues to improve her in ring skills then she has the potential to become a great wrestler."
[6.0] "I don't feel Lacey Evans is a genuinely bad wrestler at all. While she's still raw, and was called up a little earlier than she should have been, she is athletic and naturally charismatic. She had a number of strong matches in NXT, and can has a lot of potential. Her matches with Natalya have convinced me that nerves got the better than her, which is reasonable when you get to the main roster, and you're instantly thrown into title contention"
[8.0] "One of the best gimmicks right now. She has to work more on her ring skills, but she has not a lot of experience like others in the women division, so I am sure then in a couple of years she will improve a lot."
[4.0] "I have come back to change my rating from a 6 to a 4. The only thing saving her from a 3 is her mic skills and her athleticism. However, besides that, she is sloppy and dull in the ring. This little push she has received in the last few months has really exposed all of her flaws in the ring (and there are many glaring)"
[4.0] "She got brought to the spotlight way too soon. Bayley and Becky Lynch have to drag her through matches once they go past 4 minutes or so, you can hear them loudly calling spots to her because she gets lost. That said, Lacey is agile and very fit, but she needs more experience before being pushed."
[7.0] "I know people are pretty sour on Lacey Evans right now, but I see a huge upside with her. I like her presentation & I think some of her real life qualities can carry her far in the mainstream. I do certainly agree that she is still quite green in the ring & probably could have used another full year in developmental before being called up. I think the mega push she received from the get go did more harm than good. I still want to see more of her though & I hope the reevaluate how to use her best."
[6.0] "Ich denke, dass sie mit der Zeit noch besser werden wird. Ihr Gimmick als arrogante Southern Belle verkauft sie ganz brauchbar. Die Athletik stimmt auch. Grundsätzlich ist sie im Ring auch okay. Nur ihr das Timing beim Selling ist manchmal holprig."
[0.0] "The worst women's wrestler I've ever watched, her promo skills are dire, and her character is cringey as hell. Lacey Evans has no skills or awareness in the ring, not an ounce of psychology, I can't buy her as a credible threat in the ring to any title or opponent. And to conclude; Her theme song stinks."
[6.0] "Ich mag Lacey Evans und vor allem ihr Gimmick als vintage Pin Up Girl sehr gerne. Sie funktioniert auch als Heel sehr gut und ich kann mir vorstellen, dass sie mit einem patriotischem Face Gimmick auch funktionieren würde. Im Ring ist sie nicht schlecht nur am Mic hat sie noch klare Schwächen, aber insgesamt gefällt sie mir recht gut."
[5.0] "I don't care much for her gimmick and overall presentation, but she has a reasonable amount charisma and is progressing nicely. Seems to have more potential than Alexa Bliss or Nia Jax who also came from the Performance Center. Her recent matches with Kairi Sane are, to date, career highlights. She has slowly overcome some of the awkward footwork and movements she had in her earlier matches. Can only imagine how good she'll be by the time of her call up to the main roster. Her sky's the limit."
[4.0] "[13. 11. 2017] Eine der schlechtesten Wrestlerinnen des Mae Young Classic und der NXT Women's Division. Sie scheint zwar irgendetwas an sich zu haben, was den Amerikanern gefällt, mit persönlich gefällt ihr gesamtes Auftreten aber nicht. Das dann kombiniert mit den sehr dürftigen Fähigkeiten im RIng reicht leider nur für 3 Punkte. [26. 06. 2018] Hat sich im letzten halben Jahr durchaus gemacht und ist als Heel durchaus unterhaltsam. Vor Allem die Fehde gegen Kairi Sane hat ihrem Charakter sehr geholfen. +1 Punkt!"
[10.0] "she? s an incredible wrestler and very great human being. Lacey is really athletic and gifted superstar also she? s good as a wrestling character. It? s great to watch her mathces with Kairi to see her potential for a biggest takeover matches. I can't wait to see her in real action."
[6.0] "Lacey Evans has a great gimmick that is built into her character as a marine. She has a great entrance that is high energy and fun. I see Evans going far because of her marketability as a patriotic heroine. In ring she's green but creative and thus far a solid performer."
[2.0] "She has basic coordination, agility and power that prevents her from being a danger in the ring, but Lacey Evans as the major flaws of lacking any discernable charisma and as an awful awful character that stoops to the lowest common denominator. No matter how rooted in her real life, she is unbelieveable as a military badass or a patriotic figure. The level of pandering in her promos or her ridiculous attire is almost unheard of and is embarassingly transparent. If she cannot develop more substance, she will remain a laughingstock of a shameless cliche."
