[1.0] "Absolutely horrid worker, can hardly wrestle being an immobile big guy throughout his career with seemingly no prime, just a continuous fall in quality (which wasn't that good to start with), his NWA title reign shat on the legacy of that belt. He gets a single point getting somewhat over with his dancing gimmick but even then that was pretty poor."

[0.0] "There aren't many wrestlers, bad as they may be, that would justify the creation of negative numbers. Tyrus is absolutely one of them. He was never any good and the only time he was mildly entertaining was when he was dancing. There's nothing he does in the ring that's worth watching. He's a terrible big man by any standard. Vader and Bam Bam were also big but they were athletic. Tyrus in his prime could barely move. His NWA title reign will go down as one of the worst, if not THE worst, in the history of wrestling. Yes, worse than David Arquette because he was famous at the time and in my opinion has since made up for it with his hard work."

[0.0] "Never would I give a wrestler a 0 unless they ABSOLUTELY deserve it (even wrestlers I dislike both personally and professionally don't often get a 0). But, Tyrus is a really fitting candidate for being an imperfect 0. I'm not going to take into account his political views (because I'm not as politically charged as some are in the IWC), but I will take into account his whole entire (well, not everything but to sum up) professional wrestling career, which was absolutely atrocious. I can see why he was a comedy act in WWE as he has literally zero skills in the ring, can't talk on the mic to save his career, and just looked absolutely bad in every category, this was even more so the case when NWA management thought "Hmmm, maybe this guy Tyrus looks good as the world champion" and did exactly just that. Easily the worst world champion in any promotion in the 21st century and there is a very "strong" list of contenders for that debate. His final match was against EC3, a wrestler who had potential years ago but has completely fallen off as well, but he's still miles ahead of Tyrus at everything in wrestling, that match was the drizzling shits! Tyrus is probably the least mobile wrestler I've ever seen as well. Tyrus was a complete failure as a singles wrestler and this rating is justifiable enough in that regard."

[0.0] "Has hardly had a single good moment in his career; he was just another guy in WWE which nobody cared about. However, his time in NWA marks arguably one of its worst ever periods. Also, judging by the stuff he says on Fox News, he is also a terrible person. 0 redeeming qualities, in or out of the ring."

[0.0] "The guy consistently failed throughout all his career. From his early WWE days to TNA and to his retirement in NWA he was a constant sucker. Not even an adequate wrestler alright but on top of that he is a questionable person. Did Bill Demott not only trained him to be a shitty wrestler but also a shitty human being? His retirement Bull Rope match is the text book definition of awful and imagine retiring like that. He has 0 memorable matches or gimmicks, that surely includes his funky character alongside Lord Tensai, I was beyond surprised when they first put a main event caliber title on him. There are bunch of meaty powerhouse men who is above and beyond talented than this virus, it's not like he's irreplacable."

Makes Eddie Kingston who is good in talking, wrestling but has a problem with his diet look like Usain Bolt. And oh boy his last match was probably his very worse and his best was on WWE tv against Jack Swagger on RAW 1000, now he is a bad wrestler to have barely any other credible competition. Also his gimmick as the funkosaurus is super dated. Piers Morgan gets along with him so that is all I can say about Tyrus the bodybuilder from hell."

Most famous for a pretty bad run in WWE that probably would've gotten a 2 or 3, now I struggle to give h im any points at all. 0.5 out of 10 and honestly I don't feel like it can be rounded up instead of down. Can't cut promos. Can't move in the ring. Can't keep his mouth away from his own asshole. Can't."

[0.0] "Easily one of the worst wrestling in history he has never had even a semi-decent match or a remotely interesting character. The funkasaurus character in the WWE and then his Tons of Funk team got old and stale quickly. When he eventually turned up in the NWA it was seemingly to kill a dying promotion that is somehow still about and then when he won the title he managed to establish himself as the worst person to hold this title ever the fact that both he and Billy Corgan thought he was great shows how dead the NWA is."

I know that the NWA Championship has been irrelevant since the split from WCW (with its time in TNA being the exception), but goddamn. Worse than Jinder Mahal as WWE Champion. He's also an awful hateful person (but really, which wrestlers aren't? ) and is only put in the position he's because of his past of spewing nonsense on Fox News. Zero redeeming qualities."

[1.0] "Never cared for this guy at all, started out as Alberto Del Rio's bodyguard (I wish I could blame Brodus for Edge's 2011 retirement...), then became "The Funkasauras" when he got repackaged and separated from Del Rio, one of the all time worst gimmicks in recent memory, then they turned him heel and it flopped. Has runs in TNA, and does nothing noteworthy, then goes to NWA and becomes their champion... No, seriously, he did. His retirement match is so bad, it makes Sharmell vs Jenna look like Flair vs Steamboat. Overall, terrible performer who was another big guy that got booked somehow, only became champion to promote NWA on Fox News thanks to the genius that is Billy Corgan (I love Smashing Pumpkins, one of my favs, but he is a terrible promoter and booker)."

[4.0] "Folks already know much of his negative reviews stem from bias against his being a conservative, so it's going to be difficult for those who aren't "in the know" to gauge if he was good or not. I'll never rate someone based on their politics, so here goes. Tyrus was fun enough as Brodus Clay. That gimmick was never going to last long, so not surprising he didn't have a long run with WWE. He's been ok with the NWA, I think he was better suited as the TV champion. No problem with him having a run with the NWA world title but it's lasted too long."

[0.0] "Wir sind mit der NWA World Championship jetzt binnen zwei Jahren von einer Größe und einem sehr geschätzten Wrestler wie Nick Aldis bis hin zu einem Tyrus gelangt, der erstens im Ring absolut unterirdisch ist und zweitens absolut kein Main Event Material hat. Selbst in seiner WWE Zeit als Brodus Clay war Tyrus nicht mehr als nur eine Witzfigur für mich. Vorallem mit diesem komischen Funkasaurus Gimmick. Alles in allem dachte ich, dass man die NWA vom Wrestlerischen nicht weiter herunterziehen kann, aber ich wurde eines besseren belehrt."
Retro Ricky wrote on 18.08.2023:
[4.0] "Controversial and somewhat charismatic big man who probably found himself working in the wrong era. On top of being unfashionable, Tyrus was a late starter in the sport and never wrestled in his athletic peak. As he nears retirement, Tyrus has been reduced to a plodding pace, relying almost entirely on his size and solid character work in the ring. This is bearable in a tag with an athletic partner, but putrid in singles competition. On the bright side, Tyrus is confident on the mic and can be entertaining - if rarely convincing. May have potential as a colour commentator if he doesn't pursue interests outside wrestling after hanging up his boots."

[2.0] "Billy Corgan, a man who I greatly respect, suggested that I am not a wrestling fan if I'm not watching Tyrus. So I took the Corgster's advice and watched a couple of his NWA matches. I have came to the conclusion that Tyrus is a boring worker who moves at a glacial pace. Selling never needs to be a big man's strong suit, but it still leaves a lot to be desired. Can't remember any moves of his that impressed me. Even at his age, I do think that there is a place for him in the world of professional wrestling, but if I was a promoter, Tyrus would not be my world's champion or anywhere close to it."

There's amazing independent talent out there, guys who worked their ass off, and guys who deserve their own profiles here on Cagematch. Much less the NWA championship. But the fact that this man comes over here, barely attempts to do anything, gets gassed in ALL of his matches, can't even do a decent promo, and he's given the TV AND WORLDS CHAMPIONSHIP! ? It's a slap to the face of actual work horses, BIG MEATY MEN like Jonah and Otis who can move despite being super fat. Keith Lee, being able to do the things he does, HELL BIG SHOW in his last run had lost ALL that weight and was doing GREAT but nah. Not Tyrus, why does he need to train with the wrestlers, run the ropes, respect his fellow wrestler. HE'S A FOX NEWS STAR BABY! I'd give this man NEGATIVE if it was possible, but it isn't so 0 is all he gets."

If he didn't have this boring NWA run, I would've probably rated him higher, but this is just trash. He is holding other talent down from a prestigious belt and this is a terrible run for the former Funkasaurus. His gear makes me cringe and he looks so dull in the ring, just another giant. I don't want Tyrus, I want Brodus Clay."

[2.0] "I don't perceive Tyrus as more than just a clumsy powerhouse who was uninteresting as a comedic character and who can't cope with the current role. It is difficult for him to move, he looks unconvincing and his title-reign as an NWA champion is quite a controversial decision. 2 points."
King Lurk wrote on 13.02.2023:
[2.0] "A lot of people hate Tyrus simply for his political views and I don't think that's fair. A wrestler should never be judged based on that. Instead, I just see Tyrus for what he is: a sh*t wrestler. As the Funkasaurus, Brodus Clay happened to have one gimmick that was entertaining enough to get over. The gimmick was well-liked enough to cover for his terrible in-ring and promo skills. Now as Tyrus, his abilities as a wrestler are on display for everyone to see. He wasn't good in his prime but now he's horribly out-of-shape and much slower to the point that it's next to impossible for an opponent to cover for him. There are plenty of wrestlers 5+ years older than him, both active and retired, that could wrestle circles around him. You could say he has appeal as a huge presence, maybe 10 years ago when he was less out-of-shape, there are plenty of other giants in the business today that can look the part and at least move adequately. The only reason I could think of that Corgan would be mad enough to put the world title on him is for free advertising on Fox News. I don't think that advertising is worth it with the shoddy state the NWA is currently in."

He's also not TERRIBLE in the role of "menacing bodyguard", but for this old ass blown up sloppy mess to be presented as one of the top wrestlers in the world is laughable in every sense. If him being on Fox News with a belt is so fucking important to Corgan, why couldn't he just keep one of their 13 mid card titles?

[0.0] "I think that a rating 0 is usually exaggerated. There's a lot of wrestlers that I do not like, but there's not many that I genuinely believe they are completely awful and shouldn't be in a ring. Tyrus is one of these very few. Basing on his NWA performance in recent years, Tyrus has shown in more than one occasion that he's completely inadequate in the ring. Without mentioning his current age of 49 years old, his admittedly impressive size is unfortunately compromised by his total lack of athleticism: Tyrus has trouble walking, has no muscle definition, gets gassed in a matter of seconds and looks like a deflated balloon. Personality wise, Tyrus is also completely one-note, rarely showing any other kind of emotions than being smug and seemingly bored. It doesn't matter if its for a title shot for the top belt of his company, if its to defend his own championship, if its to fight against a guy who has been torn to his side or if its to gloat that he put another one in the hospital, Tyrus will delivers the same promo, the same way and with the same tone. All of those qualities could be judged differently if he was used appropriately. Maybe he could be an okay enforcer who rarely wrestles and stays silent? Maybe he could be a guy that you only use for battle royal and multi-men tag matches? Maybe he could be only used every once in a while for a PPV to add some kind of name value to a company who desperately needs name recognition? Unfortunately, after clogging every recent NWA ppv delivering god awful matches against much better talents, Billy Corgan decided to put one of the most prestigious championship in North America's history on him. Judging by the recent numbers of Powerrr, the amount of dislikes on their recent episodes and the various reactions on social medias, I'd judge that Tyrus' run as current champion is effectively killing the promotion - which is a feat I've never seen before: a wrestler so awful in every aspect that his title reign is killing his own fed. Oh, and to top all of this shit sandwich, the man is also a sexual predator."

Awful dancer, but at least when his music hit you could press the mute button and admire Naomi and Cameron for a minute or so before getting up to take a piss.

And nowadays him in the NWA is laughable putting his knees up when he's doing a 2nd Rope Splash what a wuss."

However, they thought to themselves that, by turning him into a comic character known as the "Funkasaurus" would get him over with the fans. In my opinion, the character was quite entertaining, I could've seen him become a solid, multiple time 24/7 champion in the current format of the WWE, and a solid mid-card showing on NXT. However, his TNA/IMPACT run was nothing short of underwhelming, since he seemed to be lazy at times. All in all, his career didn't live up to its full potential, but he's not exactly what I would call terrible."

His matches have been slow, and never get into a first gear.

Sollte ihm dies nicht gelingen, wird er trotz seines Potentials zwangsläufig in die gleiche Ecke wie bereits vor ihm anfängliche gepushte und dann wieder fallen gelassene Big-Men wie Heidenreich, Luther Reigns oder Big Daddy V landen, nämlich als austauschbares Monster of the Week dessen physische Präsenz allein nicht reichen wird um in der WWE mehr zu werden, als eine Randnotiz."

Doch jetzt fängt es echt an zu nerven. Und die "Matches" sind ja wohl mal gar nichts. Superstars wie Alex Riley oder Drew McIntyre werden innerhalb von einer Minute abgefertigt und als totale Luschen hingestellt. Sorry, aber vielleicht sollte mal Clay mal jemand erzählen das die Funkasaurus schon lange ausgestorben sind..."

Brodus Clay, the Funkasaurus, macht mir so viel Spaß wie kaum ein Zweiter eben. Ich freu mich richtig auf seine Auftritte, auch wenn es eben nur Squash-Matches sind, es macht einfach Laune. Theme, Auftreten, Mimik, Gestik, es passt einfach Alles. Da ist es mir Wurst, das er vielleicht in einem längeren Match stinkt, das drumrum passt. Er unterhält mich sehr, sehr gut. Ist das acht Punkte wert? Mir schon. SOMEBOSY CALL MY MOMMA!"

Jetzt hat man eben einen (im Ring überaus fähigen) Comedy-Big Man, der voll und ganz zu unterhalten weiß. Mit diesem Gimmick ist ein US Title Run definitiv drin."

Mich stört nur dieses Gimmick, dass mich, wenn auch nur leicht, an Viscera zu seiner ''Love Machine'' Zeit erinnert. Bin mal echt gespannt, wie die WWE ihn in Zukunft verpulvern wird. Von daher gibt es von mir 5 Punkte."

[10.0] "I am a fan of Brodus Clay. He is a silent giant, but he definitely has microphone skills. He is powerful, dominant, and a Beast of the Concrete Jungle. Clay has a great variety of suplexes, and is quite intimidating in the ring. In addition to this, he moves fairly well for a man of his weight and stature (also he's lost over 100 pounds in order to be in FCW). It is phenomenal to watch him go in the ring, and it is even more fun to watch his opponents get completely destroyed. Clay is GREAT for a man of his size and stature. As a giant powerhouse, he is brilliant. With the vignettes, and the absolutely entertaining squash matches of late, Brodus has been just an entirely awesome force. He's bringing the art of a monster wrestler back."

Was ihm aber deutlich fehlt ist zum einen vernünftige Ringbekleidung, die seinen runzligen Körper wenigstens etwas kaschiert und vor allem ein eigenes Profil, das ihn fürs TV qualifiziert. Der erste Einsatz mit del Rio war völlig fehlbesetzt, so baucht man nicht versuchen ihn over zu bringen. Wenn er es dann noch schafft ein paar akzeptable In Ring Leistungen abzuliefern, könnte ich mir eine Rolle im Main Roster vorstellen."

[4.0] "Muss sagen, dass ich zunächst positiv gestimmt war was Brodus Arbeit anging, doch das hat sich doch etwas geändert. Kam er mir am Anfang doch als starker und beweglicher Big-Man rüber, wird er anscheinend von Woche zu Woche unbeweglicher und auch irgendwie uninteressanter, was auch an seinen wenig durchschnittlichen Mic-Skills liegt. Er profitiert doch aktuell stark von seinem Pro DiBiase und Maryse, die ihn nicht so sehr farblos erscheinen lassen wie ich ihn vermute. Bin mal gespannt wie es für ihn nach NXT aussieht, denn für mich ist er der Anwärter für die nächste Eliminierung. Edit: Muss meine Wertung nach oben korregieren, denn in seiner aktuellen Rolle als Bodyguard von Alberto Del Rio macht er einen guten Job und darf auch mal in Matches mehr zeigen als noch zu NXT-Zeiten."

Als Bodyguard von Del Rio ist er, momentan, auch recht sinnvoll eingesetzt. Fragt sich nur, was danach mit ihm passiert... im Moment jedoch durchaus unterhaltsam. Besser als ein Miz auf jeden Fall."

"Ähnliches Problem wie bei Eli Cottonwood.... Er soll ein Monster Heel darstellen, wird aber zum Rookie/Schüler gemacht. Dadurch verliert er in meinen Augen viel von seiner Bedrohlichkeit. Ein Monster muss schließlich Angst und Schrecken verbreiten. Stattdessen muss er jede Woche irgendwelche doofen Prüfungen absolvieren und sich danach ganz brav in eine Reihe aufstellen und bewerten lassen. Das macht in meinen Augen eine Menge kaputt. Nix desto trotz halte ich ihn für nen durchaus brauchbaren und interessanten Worker. Wenn er es schafft den "Rookie-Stempel" los zu werden und sich als Monster zu behaupten. Für ne Bewertung ist es noch n bischen früh."
