[10.0] "This faction has become my fav heel faction in wrestling currently. Don has assembled a powerful crew full of great workers and characters. Kyle Fletcher has established himself as a main event guy and somebody that could potentially be the face of AEW. Takeshita is a top 5 wrestlier in the world right now and somebody that should be winning world championships for years to come."
[5.0] "He seems to be the guy they put their heel prospects with to attempt to get to the next level. It works to an extent, but I'm not the biggest fan of some of these guys. I know many IWC people really dig Kyle & Takeshita, but I have been a bit unimpressed with those two. I have flip flopped a lot on Callis over the years. But for now, I think he's decent in his role. I find him a bit overbearing at times though."
[9.0] "Stable started out pretty dire, but it's reached a point where it's pretty highly stacked. Helps that they've pretty consistently had high quality opponents, too."
[9.0] "This is the best, most stacked faction I've seen on TV in a while. No complaints at all with this formation other than I'd like to see them with more TV time."
[6.0] "Not a bad stable, more so a stable thats been cursed with bad luck and injuries. Sammy, Hobbs, and Trent were great additions, but unfortunately got hurt at the worst times during their time in the DCF. I also completely forgot that RUSH was in the stable for a time as well. Stability within the stable would help them out much more as well as allowing all members and not just Takeshita and Fletcher to have big wins and not looking like choke artists. That all said, Don Callis is probably AEWs best talker and it can be argued that hes one of the best talkers in the last 30 years. And its always a treat when he joins commentary whenever his members are in competition too."
[6.0] "Well, I have quite an ambivalent attitude, namely Don Callis Family is a stable with huge potential but so far they have not delivered such quality storylines. I think that for the possibilities that this stable has, its full potential is not fully used, which I regret."
[7.0] "The Don Callis Family is an interesting concept, but the constant change and rotation of members makes it difficult to truly establish them into a very successful act. Excluding Takeshita, nobody has a deep connection with Callis, and they just keep trying with everybody, which I'm generally not a fan, but even with that, this stable brought some interesting feuds and angles to the table, and it's always a super heated group because of Callis."
[9.0] "One of the only reasons I tune in to watch, Don Callis can have some bad promos from time to time but the star power in this faction is undeniable. The Ospreay story with the faction could've been better but it doesn't matter for me. Kyle Don and Takeshita fit right in with each other. The addition of Cage and Archer should see some improvement with tag or any multi man matches. I knocked it down a point because of the terrible past with Jericho. You can't fault Hobbs for getting hurt he should've had a much bigger role."
[9.0] "Somehow a faction that started off with go away heat suddenly becoming one of the best and most talented collections of talent in the world. The Callis Family had Ospreay, Fletcher, and Takeshita all at once. Right now, the super heel group with the new team of Archer and Cage should be pushed to the top as they are both incredible. Fletcher as a heel should be interesting and help him in the long run, and Konosuke Takeshita is on the top of the world. He has finally gotten to the point that he deserves in AEW. As for other members like Beretta, I really wish he was given more of a time to shine. I don't know if he's injured or what, but I miss him being around. And then people like Guevara or Rush or Hobbs were not in the group long enough for it to really matter. But right now, I think the Callis Family is one of the best and most talented factions in the world."
[0.0] "Instant channel changer to me. Don Callis with his long winded promos, just mildly irritating and always seems ice cold. Joining his stable feels like an easy one way ticket to irrelevance for most guys, look at the long list of guys who aimlessly joined and left the group less over than when they joined. The only guy they really sort of tried with was Takeshita but his big push went exactly nowhere because Callis couldn't get him over as a heel. Now they're trying with Fletcher, maybe he'll have better luck but I don't see that happening. The sooner we see the end of this group, the happier I will be, just the worst."
[7.0] "Im actually a pretty big fan of this group. Callis is basically a full time commentator now and hes pretty good at it. I also like how they were able to take stars that were a little overlooked like Takeshita and Hobbs, and put them in this faction and now theyre on TV every week."
[8.0] "For me the Don Callis Family has always had this thing where they don't really feel like an actual quote-unquote faction, and I guess that's the point? When they all joined up it made sense because they had common enemies, but now it feels like they're just a bunch of disparate dudes with the same manager and he decided they should all be hanging out together. I don't think anyone watching would be surprised if any one of them turned on each other at any moment, with the exception of Ospreay and Fletcher's existing friendship in United Empire. I mean, hell, Ospreay is a full-blown babyface while the rest of them are dastardly heels, and somehow it still works because the lynchpin who holds them together, Don Callis, is a fucking amazing performer and he executes his role as puppet master perfectly. Doesn't hurt that all of the actual wrestlers involved are truly stellar performers as well. Eventually things will blow up, perhaps especially with whatever happens with Orange Cassidy, but for now it's a fun ride. 7.5 rounded up to 8."
[7.0] "Im a fan of the group. The matches are actually pretty decent and everyone in the group has at least one amazing accolade or accomplishment since joining the group."
[7.0] "Think the Callis Family is good. Hobbs and Takeshita needed some direction and found it with Callis along with a talented mouthpiece. Fletcher also benefits being with Callis when Davis is out. Group needs to move on from Jericho and Omega."
