[9.0] "Taz is a great wrestler as he is a great commentator. In ECW, he was a total killer, throwing some of the sickest suplexes you could watch at the time, looking dominate, had one hell of an aura to him, all of this while he was 5' 8", mind you. The less said about his in ring days in WWF, the better. Then he transitions into the commentary world, and he quickly becomes of the best to ever do it. Very knowledgeable, was able to carry Michael Cole, and made for great memes on Botchamania (LOL! )"

[9.0] "This rating is purely based of his run in ECW. His ECW run started as the Tazmaniac and started his feud with Sabu. He would win the ECW tag titles with Kevin Sullivan and Sabu in 1994 and 1995. He broke his neck and returned as just Taz "The Human Suplex Machine". He absolutely destroyed everyone and everything from 1996 to 1998. Winning TV titles and world titles through this run. He was the coolest most badass dude in ECW. His matches with Sabu were highlight reels and I loved him in ECW. We don't talk about his WWF run EVER."

[9.0] "Taz was a killing machine in his prime; looking back, I can kind of understand why he didn't do much in WWE considering he was nearing the end of his in-ring career, but it still feels like he could've been given more. But hey, All-Time Commentator Jones over here."

[10.0] "Best commentator of all time. I'm dead serious. Where can you find someone so knowledgeable, funny, full of things to say and NOT BORING like Taz? You can't. Maybe only Dusty Rhodes is at his level, but Dusty had a tendency to get confused pretty easily. Not that Taz is perfect, but on SmackDown and Dark he's been amazing to hear. I was gutted at 6 yrs old when he wasn't on SD anymore and I had to hear JBL"

[7.0] "Tazz is great at pro wrestling and has proven to be a good commentator outside of a terrible TNA run. Tazz had a great run in ECW and then had a hot start in WWE but fell off and injuries destroyed his career. His style showed him as one of the best grappler and submission experts of his era. His WWE commentary was solid before going to TNA where he was just annoying especially in the Aces & Eights storyline. In AEW Team Taz was great and he and Excalibur have great chemistry for commentary."

[7.0] "Total Rewrite: Paul Heyman knew how to book him but his WWF in ring career pretty much tanked. Why? Because he was too short for the big leagues. There were moments he had trouble hitting the 'F ropes and more than once: the peak of his stature would barely make it to and thusly bounce awkwardly off the top rope, such things are MORTIFYING if you're supposed to be this total badass. ECW stuff, as fun and as engaging as it can be at times - all feels like smoke and mirrors more than most anything else there. Seems like I'm totally dogging on him right? The unlikely championship team with Spike Dudley was kinda fun and... His commentary when on Smackdown in the early 00's is cracking me up and pretty much saved his career for me personally. Heck, his commenting style is so fun it can often be the saving grace of some matches/angles and that takes true talent. 7.25 rounded down."

[9.0] "Rating him as a commentator here, not as a wrestler or on-screen talent. His commentary is one of the high points of AEW, especially his insane chemistry with Excalibur. Taz knows when to play it straight and provide excellent technical analysis, and when he can let loose and be sillier. He's a lot of fun to listen to."

[7.0] "Taz was a decent wrestler back in his ECW days but nothing special. His moveset was mainly suplexes which was fine but he wasn't really the great technical wrestler they wanted you to believe/fear. I didn't really care much for his character work either so I didn't expect much when he transitioned to commentary but I was wrong. Wherever he's been he's an asset in the commentary booth and is by far the best regular in AEW."
KENTAfan wrote on 03.12.2022:
[10.0] "The only commentator to rival Jim Ross, aside from Heyman who was also great but unfortunately not a commentator for very long at all. Taz had a successful career and was quite the beast in his day, but even more impressive to me is his long commentator career. He never ceases to be entertaining and make me laugh."

danzgalliwag wrote on 02.08.2022:
[9.0] "Taz was one of the standouts in mid-90s ECW. He was always a great worker in the ring and really separated himself from the rest of the ECW roster with his technical-powerhouse style. On commentary, his wealth of wrestling knowledge lends to some high-quality play-by-play, and his mere love for what he does makes for some hella entertaining banter. I wish he could've had a longer in-ring career, but at the same time I'm glad we've gotten Taz calling the action for this long."
OnlyHalfTheEffinShow wrote on 04.11.2021:
[9.0] "Taz was easily the best ECW Champion in its original run. There was pretty much no one else like him in wrestling at the time save maybe Ken Shamrock, a shoot-style submission and technical powerhouse who could dismantle you with suplexes and knock your ass out with the Tazmission. His promos were also of a surprising quality, and his catchphrase of "Beat me if you can. Survive if I let you" was one of a kind, and perfect for the kind of character he was. Unfortunately, his aura outside of ECW couldn't last. A combination of injuries and poor booking resulting in Taz's WWF run being ultimately underwhelming. That being said, it is also where Taz managed to find his second niche as a commentator, a role he occupies to this day to comedic effect in AEW."

[6.0] "Despite being shorter than my West Indian grandmother, Tazz got a glow up like you wouldn't believe and found a way to wrestle to his strengths. But on further examination, he didn't have any really truly great matches where he wasn't in the ring with a much better wrestler."
Kung wrote on 28.06.2021:
[9.0] "Taz was my kind of wrestler. He was as stiff as hell. He had a plethora of suplexes and submission moves at his disposal. And he was, and still is, a phenomenal talker."

KyleEnjoysWrestling wrote on 08.03.2021:
[8.0] "In ECW, Taz was a 10. But elsewhere, his legacy didn't continue as the absolute top of the pile. Brought that badass MMA feel to wrestling before MMA was mainstream & cool. His legit pissed off attitude really sold you on him & everything he was involved with. His career as a comentator had peaks & valleys, but for the most part, I enjoy the in ring knowledge he brings to the desk."

[6.0] "A perfectly fine and serviceable wrestler but add a sprinkle of Paul Heyman's Magic Booking and people still remember him as an all time great despite being, well, just fine, not great. Pretty annoying but harmless as a color commentator."
Ma Stump Puller wrote on 29.11.2020:
[7.0] "Taz almost completely relied on the Heyman booking machine to make him the main event guy that he was: watch before his repackage and you'll find a pretty mediocre tag guy with a terrible gimmick behind him, and to be honest, he didn't improve much after his hiatus either, but Taz was covered up very well and made to be a dominant force in ECW, a relentless wrestling machine that would take you to the mat and suplex your neck to death before choking you out. Despite the aura of menace and the reputation he got, Taz actually was pretty fragile and injury prone, not helped by ECW's lack of mats and him consistently taking flat bumps on concrete, and his fairly early end to his career shows that. However, looking back Taz actually doesn't have that many relatively great matches, a lot of them are kinda sloppy and not put well together, and his ring work in them is, again, not great beyond a few nasty looking suplexes. Bad at promos, but his commentary and later manager work is pretty harmless. That being said, as a wrestler? Not as good as people say he is and his workrate record shows as such: a lot of trash brawls, squash matches, and weak showings."

[8.0] "Taz/Tazz was obviously very good in the ring. His best days were in ECW, but unfortunately, he failed to make a mark as wrestler in the WWF. The writers completely failed to capitalize on the impact he made on his first appearance. They could have given him proper feuds with guys like Angle (before he was in the title picture), Jericho and Benoit, but they decided to make him feud with JR and Lawler instead, which probably ended any chance of anyone taking him seriously again. By 2001 he was pretty much a jobber. Luckily for him he was great as a color commentator. I don't know how good or not he was in TNA, but during the early days of Smackdown, he was great, and I enjoyed him a lot more than Lawler. His chemistry with Cole was especially excellent (and he was probably the only person who made Cole tolerable). Tazz actually seemed like he cared about what was going on in the ring, knew his stuff, could be appropriately funny, and he didn't seem as outdated as some of the other commentators."

[9.0] "One of the best in the ring. Legendary in ECW. The Tazmanic gimmick was awesome. He was remembered in ECW. He won many titles his most success the ECW World Heavyweight title, two champion. Great at submission moves and suplexes. He started off well in WWF beating Kurt Angle and feuding with Big Show and Rikishi. Unfortunately he was not given much of a pushing. Only winning the Hardcore title 3 times. He should have been intercontinental champion or WWE champion. Sadly with injuries he had to retire prematurely. He is great as a commentator as well and worked for WWE for years. Has an excellent career as a great wreslter and commentator."

[8.0] "Taz was a great tough as nails wrestler who undoubtedly never reached peak success due to his size as well as his major ego backstage.

[6.0] "Taz is tough to rate. He had a great gimmick in ECW and was technically sound. That never translated to WWE, likely due to his size. He is very hit or miss on the commentary table as well. Good on Smackdown, bad in TNA. Very middle of the pack overall."

IsThisWrestling wrote on 29.07.2017:
[7.0] "Taz as a wrestler was very overrated but that's what happens when you have an amazing gimmick to fall-back on. How a guy his size got as famous as he did in the time he did is alone remarkable. At the same time as soon as he made it to the Fed, his body fell apart and his career seemed to be ruined until he made a mark as a commentator. He was good on SmackDown but in TNA he was trash. But if he popped up again on commentary for an NXT taping or something, I'm sure he'd be perfectly fine."
Blood Pump wrote on 30.03.2017:
[8.0] "Of all the ECW guys that made their name in that company, Taz (or Tazz) was my favorite. Sure, watching Mike Awesome fly around for his size was good fun and sure RVD was the high flying equal but Taz was just such an interesting character. He was pretty small, but he prided himself on his small stature. It didn't stop him from slamming around guys like Bam Bam. He had a very savage style, as if he were a badger. It sucks that his career was cut short but he left behind a large library of classics in ECW, many must watch matches that expand past the matchguide for his page (a notable omittion imo being his Living Dangerously match with Bam Bam, which I feel was better then their Heat Wave encounter (A great match in its own right but this ones much more memorable for me))."

Beides hasst Vinnie Mac ja bekanntlich ... ). Seine Judo-Techniken (Submissions und Suplexes) waren jedenfalls astrein. Nicht nur ein Chris Benoit konnte riesige Leute glaubhaft dominieren, sondern auch Taz! Als Kommentator dann ja bekanntlich nicht mehr das Gelbe vom Ei. Ich bewerte nur seine aktive Zeit in der ECW, weil alles danach einfach nur eine unfaire Frechheit von Seiten der WWE war."

[9.0] "In his time, Taz was a force to be reckoned with - an excellent technical wrestler known for stiff suplexes and submission holds. He as also one of the most intense promos in the business in the late '90s. He had some fantastic matches against the likes of Sabu, Bam Bam Bigelow, Chris Jericho and many others as ECW built him as a killing machine, and was also a major part of the ECW "invasion" of the WWF. Unfortunately injuries had taken their toll on him by the time he got to WWE full-time, and many newer fans may know him better for his color commentary role in WWE and TNA than his in-ring work - and over the years, his largely comedic commentary style and one-liners got a bit tired. That still doesn't take away from what he once was."

[9.0] "Before he broke his neck, Taz originally had a wild man gimmick that borrowed a fair bit from Warner Bros' Tazmanian Devil. After he broke his neck, Paul Heyman repackaged him to look like wrestling's version of Mike Tyson - a small, but very strong and intimating man from Brookyn New York, capable of man-handling wrestlers of any size. Even though he wasn't that tough in real life, Heyman booked him to appear that way on screen, and eventually he became a very memorable part of ECW. Offence-wise, one wrestler today that could be compared to Taz would be Samoa Joe. Taz was capable of incorporating his judo background into his wrestling style, which consisted primarily of chain wrestling, submission holds (including the kajahijime, the half nelson choke he used as a finisher called the Tazmission that is illegal in Judo but legal in ECW, which was great marketing), and of course, lots, and lots of different kinds of suplexes (or tazplexes). Considering he was such a big name in ECW by 1999/2000, and became the guy who ended Kurt Angle's winning streak in WWE, his WWE Career really wasn't up to much. He won the hardcore title several times in 2000 and eventually won the tag team titles in 2002 for short time before retiring quietly after a house show to become a colour commentator. His retirement was understandable, the guy didn't wear knee pads, and it shortened his career, as did his neck injury. But he eventually became a fun commentator. Overall, a 9 because he wa"

Als Kommentator super, der sowohl ernste Fehden als auch Comedysegemente verkaufen kann, ohne dass das ganze zu plakativ oder überhypt wird. Da er gerade einen schweren Stand mit Adamle hat, ist seine Leistung gar nicht hoch genug zu bewerten. Daher gebe ich statt normalerweise 8, nun 9 Punkte!"

[8.0] "Zu ECW- Zeiten einer meiner absoluten Lieblinge. Sein Mic-Work ist super und seine Matches echt spannend. Seine Suplex-Serien sind immer wieder toll anzusehen. Später in der WWE wurde er leider unter Wert verkauft obwohl er das Zeug zu einem ganz Großen hatte - auch in dieser Promotion. Jetzt leider so gut wie nur noch Kommentator, für mich definitiv zu früh. Ich denke er könnte derzeit in der WWE als aktiver Wrestler sehr gut eingesetzt werden."

Als Kommentator sehr gut, neigt allerdings meiner Meinung manchmal dazu ein bisserl zu viel zu reden - da kommt selbst Joey Styles manchmal nicht genügend zu Wort :). Als Wrestling-Persönlichkeit mit seiner Vergangenheit muss es einfach ein "sehr gut" geben."
