[2.0] "The first time you see Cara Noir (read: his entrance) it's incredible. As a whole, his in-ring doesn't really match his character and I suspect his sudden and unexpected push in various UK and European promotions is a result of political allegiances rather than ability or overness. The 16 Carat win was a mistake, and he has continued to push his crap work ever since. Over reliance on gay-panic spots are frankly insulting in this day and age. One of the worst to do it. Thank you and stay out of my sport."

[10.0] "I have never been as awestruck in person as when I first watched Cara Noir at a Progress Show. Everything from the entrance, to the face paint, to his ability in the ring. I was absolutely amazed and have been a fan ever since. Noir has such charisma and doesn't have to say a word, his in-ring style tells all. He has such a unique look and presence, and I've never seen anyone like him. I think he's fantastic and wish him all the best in the years to come!"

[7.0] "One of the more unique wrestlers of the British independent circuit, Cara Noir is a fine wrestler overall. His main attraction is his gimmick, which is possibly the best I've seen in a while, I watched his match with PAC and I was more than impressed. He needs a couple of tweaks to his move set thought, if he does that, he would be amazing."

[8.0] "What a freak this guy is. I love it. The entrance is spectacular and the character work is so over the top but unironic that you can't help but love it. Watching Cara Noir wrestle is like watching a newly discovered species of bird. Watching it do strange but beautiful things and not quite comprehending them but thinking it's dope anyways. He gets extra points for being surprisingly technical in the ring. And also for that insane head bump he took against Ueno."

[8.0] "Cara Noir is a great character on the UK indie scene & he had a presence that makes you immediately take notice. He is also very athletically sound. If he does ever transition to a larger company, I think a lot can be done with his character. His match against PAC was unique & showed what he could do against a well established star. One thing I'm not overly enamored with is how the man sort of separates himself from the wrestling persona; especially on social media. That might be the old school fan in me talking, but part of me is more appreciative when a guy lives the gimmick -- especially in the view of the public. That said, he's someone I definitely have my eye on currently."

[9.0] "The first time I saw Cara Noir "live" I was knocked out by his ring entrance, surely one of the best anywhere. However, to my amazement his match with the OJMO was perhaps the best worked match that I have ever seen in-person. I knew of the OJMO's quality, but Cara Noir was the perfect foil for him, and they produced a match that I have only seen equalled in another OJMO match. If you have never seen him action do yourself a favour and watch him live."

[6.0] "An absolutely fine wrestler for the indie circuit, nothing to complain about him in that role. The problem is his rise to the top of the European wrestling scene seems to be chiefly tied to the paucity of big name and charismatic workers right now due to the continuous talent raids by AEW and especially WWE cascading through the system: as good as he is Tom Dawkins would have never got so high on the totem pole if those above him hadn't been taken out of circulation. Good indie wrestler, but somebody I wouldn't exactly call a big time player."

[8.0] "Brilliant gimmick, every match I've seen he seems to get better in the ring. Huge potential for him. If he carries on improving the way he has over the past couple of years in a few years he could be one of the biggest stars in the world."

[8.0] "Cara Noir is a wrestler with a lot of potential, he has a very interesting gimmick, and manages to perform very well both in the ring and outside, he also managed to make several very good matchs, and if he continues to evolve, he can become an incredible wrestler."

[9.0] "Just discovered him a week ago through RIPTIDE. Literally made this account to show my support. He's got great execution and charisma, and his bumps and sells are quick and visceral. I don't think it'll be too much longer before he gets a contract, I'm just praying it's not Vince because we all know exactly what he would do with the gimmick. 9 for now, but I really feel like that will rise given time"
