[7.0] "Out freakin standing promo artist, hot damn was he dynamite. One of THE great underrated mic guys - recommended on that front. It's a joy watching him slowly rise in the ranks of the territory system. In Crockett he had a nice trajectory from 84 to 86, then for who knows what reason - the rug was pulled from under him and he never got "it" back. The Jive Tones will always keep me entertained but they never got the on screen time the duo deserved. Vince then hired him and he was barely enhancement talent, coming off as a "jobber" (I hate that word but he really did underachieve for the role). His career closing enhancement work in WCW had *some* bite at least. I wonder what his career would have been like had his role in Crockett not been so harshly cut down, well that and if he was about 4 or 5 inches taller. (Minor edits and a slight score raise)"

[5.0] "I like his heel turn on Jimmy Valiant back in 85 or 86. He was also known as Pistol Pee Pez Whatley, because of his 90 WWF run and all of his WWF matches were piss-break unless he fought someone else on his own status. Return to Altana in 1996 and was also used as a jobber there. Retired in 1999 and sadly died in early 05 from a heart-attack. RIP Pez Whatley"

[6.0] "Mid card in NWA, was a decent face before turning on the Boogie Woogie man, and has a decent run in Paul Jones's army. Was a 100% jobber at the end of his career in the WWF, but thought he was pretty entertaining in his NWA days, especially as a heel."

[7.0] "I can't believe this guy is underrated. He was a excellent jobber. This man was excellent at promos. Biggest peak was in the NWA Mid-Atlantic. He had a great heel turn on Jimmy Valaint. Also memorable in Florida, USWA, WWF and WCW. He was great at takedowns, clobbering and holds. A legend for sure in Tennessee."

[5.0] "Had some accomplishments in the NWA, esepcially as the heel Shaska Whatley. Solid worker, and when he went to the WWF (now WWE) he was a very competent jobber got them."

[4.0] "Ist irgendwie eine ältere Version von Koko B. Ware. Hätte "Pistol Pete" und den Birdman gerne im Tag Team gesehen. Auch wenn Whatley im Ring unterdurchschnittlich begabt war - der Entertainment-Faktor stimmte."
