[9.0] "Whew, what a wrestler Kris Statlander is. With her youth, she is capable of being a leader in the ring. Her in-ring ability is great, her presence overwhelming and her character may have a lot of growing to do. Hopefully they don't forget the tremendous talent they have in Kris, one of the most exciting wrestlers in All Ellite Wrestling."
[9.0] "For me Statlander is possibly the greatest in-ring woman AEW have. She is freakishly strong and moves and sells so well. When she lost to Ruby (pre-heel turn), the fans booed because they realised just how much better Kris is than Ruby. That is a great example of just organically getting over by being good."
[6.0] "Im Ring schafft sie es besonders die Finish-Sequenzen überzeugend wirken zu lassen. Sie sieht auch nicht schlecht aus. Allerdings fehlt überall noch das gewisse etwas, sodass sie zwar eine solide Erweiterung für den Kader, aber kein Star ist."
[5.0] "Wer ist Kris Statlander? Was macht Kris Statlander besonders? Warum soll ich mit Kris Statlander mitfiebern? Das sind alles Fragen, die ich nicht mit Überzeugung beantworten kann. Zuvor mit ziemlich beklopptem Alien-Gimmick, ist sie jetzt einfach nur eine Frau, die wrestlet. Zwar nicht schlecht, aber ganz solides Wrestling begeistert mich einfach nicht und sorgt schon gar nicht dafür, dass ich mich für jemanden interessiere. Statlander hat für mich wenig bis keine Ausstrahlung und keine Persönlichkeit."
[7.0] "Another one of the few reasons I tune into AEW is Kris Statlander. I think she is such a great in ring worker who forms great chemistry with whoever she is working with. There are so many good things to say about her current work, I just wish she and the rest of her division was booked better."
[7.0] "Very solid and reliable worker, can do a lot of angles and gimmicks and it's always a trustful option in ring. She's above average and useful for any company."
[7.0] "While I wasn't a big fan of her Alien gimmick, she did as well as she could with it. Her current gimmick is fine, decent strong silent type character. Good wrestler who isn't all that special on the mic."
[5.0] "Kris Statlander is a professional wrestler. She goes out and she has matches and sometimes she cuts a promo. That's all I can say about her. She's not particularly good or bad at any one thing; she does everything competently yet not compellingly. I don't mind seeing her on TV but if she stopped wrestling tomorrow I wouldn't notice."
[7.0] "I would rate her higher if she was a good promo and her new gimmick right now is weak. It just does not have any depth the alien gimmick was better. In ring wise she has carried some of the worst to great matches love her in ring work."
[5.0] "I thought Kris was much more interesting as an Alien and now she's... The strong silent type we are supposed to take seriously? Yet she's still being goofy with Zoolander outfits and stuff? Doesn't make sense to me. Very athletic for sure. Promo work is weak. I don't know what to get behind with her. So I don't."
[8.0] "Kris Statlander ist ganz große Klasse! Im Ring finde ich sie astrein und ihr Character sagt mir definitiv zu! Menschlich hat sie hinter den Kulissen auch einen enormen Wert, weshalb viele andere Worker sie total gerne haben. Ich gönne ihr die TBS-Championship-Regentschaft nach all den Verletzungen die sie durchmachen musste einfach nur von Herzen! Für mich ist sie vom Gesamtpaket eine der besten Frauen bei AEW. Sie ist so jemand, der das Heft des Handelns auch mal in die Hand nehmen kann und dann auch gute Matches zaubert - Siehe das Match bei Collision gegen Britt Baker."
[5.0] "No doubt she is incredibly over the fans but personally I cannot understand why. She's got good size and decent fire but I've never seen one of her matches and came out of it thinking she's a great worker; she has good basics but her timing and transitions seem sloppy, although to be fair she's had a lot of serious injuries. Has a few flashy moves but needs to be in there with a competent veteran to have a really good match. There's a smattering of charisma there but no indication of a good promo. Certainly competent but at this stage of her career has yet to take the leap onto the level of the top women in the division."
[6.0] "I am probably in the minority, but the alien gimmick with the hanging upside-down and booping people on the nose was great because she could stand out. It is professional wrestling, and you can be anything you want. But seeing Kris return at Double or Nothing 2023 in a generic black outfit with more than a woman written repeatedly on the fabric made me question: what is her gimmick? Who is this character? And why should I care? Which is unfortunate because she would be an 8 otherwise. She is unique and has a lot of potential, and she is clearly a cut above the rest of the division by having a great combination of power and agility."
[10.0] "Kris Statlander is one of the greatest wrestlers in the entire world, it's without a fact that she loves wrestling. She is so good with promos and on the mic too. I can't wait to see her return to the ring. She is trained by Pat Buck and Brian Myers, the owners of Create-A-Pro! She is good at being a valet for OC and Best Friends. She is going to be a very decorated wrestler in the near future. AEW would be very stupid to let someone like Kris not resign."
[8.0] "Kris Statlander is phenomenal. She's one of my favorite wrestlers on the AEW roster. Her power style is awesome to see in a women's division that doesn't feature much of what she does. She missed most of 2020 and the division suffered for it, but she's got good potential as a face and I love seeing her wrestle. Big fan. The only thing holding her back at this stage is her inability to stay healthy."
[8.0] "HOPEFULLY hopefully hopefully when she comes back from injury she takes the TBS title from Jade Cargill. Statlander is up there with Shida and Hayter as the best female workers on the roster. Great talent that any locker room would be lucky to have."
[9.0] "Kris Statlander is an impressive member of the AEW women's roster. She puts on great matches in the ring. She has good charisma. She gets over naturally as a face. Injuries have been her biggest issues so far."
[9.0] "Easily one of AEW's best women and she is (was) surprisingly over with fans. Awesome move set. Cursed by injuries though it seems unfortunately."
[9.0] "Ich finde sie wird Mega unterschätzt sie ist Mega gut im Ring verdammt stark.. Nur dieses alien gimmick ist nicht so nice hoffe das der neue Look nicht wieder verworfen wird"
[9.0] "An extremely underrated girl who has long deserved to be the women's champion in AEW. I like what she does and how she does things. She has a natural charisma, she can be both a comedic character and quite serious. With her data, she looks grea"
[8.0] "One of the best womens wrestlers AEW has at there disposal atm. Always came through when she? s had the chance to showcase herself. Hope she? s the one to beat Jade for the TBS title."
[8.0] "While she rarely gets the opportunity to show her talent in AEW, the few times she does get a chance she excels. In Beyond she has wrestled some of the best intergender matches I've ever seen and regularly shows that she deserves more in AEW. While I did like the alien gimmick, I do think going for a more serious character going forward is probably best for her career."
[7.0] "[Update from 6.0 to 7.0] Ok, yeah one point doesn't make much of a difference but I'm really glad she dropped the stupid alien gimmick. Now that she's an actual wrestler she went from looking like a GCW reject to a real star they can build a division around. Nice. [Old Review]: She feels really out of place in AEW. Statlander has struggled to find the right chemistry with most of her opponents in AEW's women division, which says a lot considering how many talented in-ring workers there are in AEW women's division. She hasn't made much progress in the recent years since she was signed and I can't really see her as a champion, just someone fun to watch."
[1.0] "She really doesn't have much going for her. She isn't awful in the ring, but she's certainly not good either, she has strength and power but that's about it. Outside of her actual wrestling she's completely deficient...I don't care if she's an alien or not, she has no character or personality, she's completely lacking in charisma, gives cringeworthy facial expressions and whenever she's given mic time she's abysmal. She has no marketability...she doesn't look, act, talk or feel like a star. She is just completely uninteresting, I never look forward to seeing her and when I do see her I end up rolling my eyes and wishing there was someone else in her spot."
[9.0] "Kris has one of the best balances in the AEW women's division. She has quality in the ring, she has presence, she has a good selection of moves and she knows how to sell. However, she has always been very lost regarding her character. The alien character didn't make sense, but she could have gone somewhere if she had embraced the nonsense, like they do with Luchasaurus. She now looks like she's starting over with a serious look to become an interesting powerhouse, but the lack of time at the mic and the split from Best Friends is like an uncertain new beginning. If she manages to develop an interesting character and gets involved in a good feud, she can get a 10/10 rating."
[9.0] "She's great in every aspect. I feel terribly sorry for her that the injury stopped her momentum and excluded her from AEW for months. I think she's the best female wrestler in AEW next to Hikaru Shida."
[5.0] "One of the many competent but otherwise forgettable members of the AEW Women's roster. Offence-wise she's decent, with an array of nicely athletic movements and attacks, but she lacks proper expertise in that style to allow her to properly stand out, and she isn't especially explosive or intense to otherwise elevate her attacks or her aura. Her personality is rather odd, with her being a "alien" (in kayfabe this isn't treated literally, thankfully) who "boops" the noses of her opponents, but that quirky style at least makes her somewhat endearing for being so light-hearted while still mostly wrestling seriously without engaging in any outright comedy. I can't see her becoming any sort of star with her current trajectory, but I could imagine her eventually becoming AEW Women's Champion just by process of elimination based on her being one of the few somewhat over babyfaces in the company."
[8.0] "A good powerhouse style wrestler who mixes in highflying and gymnastic well. She came back real strong from her injury and can't wait to see how she does as she get more experience"
[6.0] "The most physically gifted women's wrestler in AEW, Statlander just hasn't found her groove since returning in April. Her high profile matches (vs Britt Baker at All Out; vs Ruby Soho in the TBS Championship Tournament) were decent, but she rarely displays great chemistry with the other women in AEW. Hopefully that changes and she spends most of 2022 deep in the Women's and TBS Championship picture. Hikaru Shida, Jamie Hayter, Serena Deeb, Thunder Rosa and Mercedes Martinez could all potentially provide the opponent she needs to set her loose."
[8.0] "Wow. Das war mein erster Gedanke als ich sie vor ein paar Jahren in den Indies gesehen habe. Ich habe sie daraufhin hin und wieder gesehen und fand sie schon damals als mehr als solide Wrestlerin. Da sie nun bei AEW ist, habe ich mehr von ihr gesehen und bin sowas von ihr überzeugt. Sie kann jeden Stil mitgehen, kann sowohl herausragende technische Matches worken, kann aber auch durch ihre Stärke kommen. Sie gehört sicherlich zu den besten Workerinnen in AEW und bin noch gespannt wo ihre Reise hingeht."
[9.0] "Has a great blend of gymnastics and powerhouse, along with a fun gimmick. She's a bit underrated because every time she gets a chance to shine she nails it."
[7.0] "She stand out because she's a good athlete which is rare amongst women who come up through the indies. Not really a fan of the alien gimmick but her in ring skills make me overlook it. Can't recall her speaking very much."
[8.0] "Kris Statlander is an incredible performer. She has a lovable quirky personality in matches and in interactions while also having some of the best lifting power among women competitors. Some may be thrown off by her gimmick, but the longer she has it, the more she makes it work."
[8.0] "Kris may not be the best wrestler in the world and probably never will be, but she is still a great worker as well as being very charismatic and natural."
[8.0] "Was really worried that after her injury she would lose the potential she had but it seems like she's back on track immediately so that's great. She's got a lot to offer so hopefully she gets to show out a lot."
[8.0] "Kris Statlander is one of my favorite wrestlers to come from the northeast in a long time. She's really good in the ring, but where she really thrives is with her character work. I can see her winning some gold in AEW at some point."
[8.0] "Wie ich ihr Gimmick verstanden habe ist sie das großartigste Alien der Galaxie. Nur was für ein Alien soll sie parodieren. Ist im Ring richtig gut und hat sich die Jahre auch begehrt gemacht. Die gute Kristen kann auch viele Stile wrestlen auch die harten Stile. Edit 21. 04. 2021 Kris is back, vieles ist neu und ist nochmal stärker geworden. Es ist auch so ungewohnt wie sie in den Stable von Best Friends passt."
[3.0] "Fail to see the appeal with Kris Statlander. Poor in ring ability, and comes across as very awkward in backstage segments. She gives Kip Sabian a run for his money as the least charismatic part of Being The Elite, and seems devoid of any personality - perhaps the alien gimmick is a masterstroke after all. I would give credit for attempting impressive offence, and give some leeway to the frequent botches, but at least try to find your feet first. The phrase learn to walk before you run comes to mind."
[7.0] "I really like her look, but she has to tone down the alien gimmick a bit. I'm fine if she's someone who's really into space & whatnot. But please don't act like you're ACTUALLY a Martian. She's an example of why AEW desperately need to have a good training facility at their disposal & to have many of their current roster continue to hone their craft."
[7.0] "the gimmick must be dropped; it's just horrible. That being said, I really enjoy seeing her ring work and power set. She obviously has a ways to go but she appears to really be working hard and I appreciate that and think she will do very well in the business once she heals up."
[4.0] "I'll be honest and say that the high rating is a surprise to me. Now, granted, I was not familiar with her before AEW. However, I was immediately put off by the ridiculous "alien" gimmick. I can suspend my disbelief only so far, and like JR that night on commentary, I wasn't prepared to accept that kind of nonsense. Wholly apart from that, though, Statlander has done nothing to stand out among the already pretty weak women's division in AEW. An average worker from what I've seen with an awful gimmick."
[3.0] "I'll happily up her grade in the future, but so far in AEW she has been terrible and not helped by being hopelessly overexposed long before she is ready. She struggles with even the most basic exchanges, hesitates before every transition and even on most strikes. For a woman of her size her inability to run the ropes is embarrassing. In a very weak AEW women's division she is very exposed. Against the only good worker, Shida, she looks lost and outclassed and against the others the matches are just bad. Her finisher is excellent, but I cannot find much potential. From watching a lot of her indie work, it seems her best matches are against men."
[5.0] "Mediocre wrestler with a silly gimmick. Only positive about her is that she is still relatively new in the business and therefore might still be able to improve and hone her craft. With the right opponent (especially in intergender matches so far) at least some talent shone through."
[8.0] "Will keep getting better and better. Should definitely have an AEW title run upcoming. Power wrestler with crisp moveset. Alien stuff is silly but fun."
[8.0] "Incredible for someone that's only been wrestling for 2 years. She has a character, a great moveset and looks fluid in the ring. What little I've seen of her has been very entertaining. Can't wait to see what she brings to AEW."
[8.0] "I can't believe she has only been wrestling 2 years. Stadtlander is a wrestling prodigy. Her strikes, footwork, matches, just everything is incredible. She is talented beyond her years and experience, and she is a star. Not a star in the making, but a stsr"
[8.0] "For a wrestler with less than two years experience she is amazing. Great attitude blended with an interesting, unique gimmick which she backs up wonderfully with her in ring performance. Reminds me a lot of early Sara Del Rey. I can see Kris working for one of the bigger wrestling companies by the end of the year due to the exposure she seems to be getting lately on IWTV."
