Posted May 20, 20241 yr comment_6021568 Microstatistics: Up there with Darby Allin as one of the best post-2015 debutantes. At first glance, he seems like purely a mic guy with limited chops in the ring. Until you actually watch the big matches, which deliver in spades. He does well to combine old-school psychology with hyper-modern offense. Charismatic, particularly as the heel, though his unshakable kayfabe bit could be over-the-top. His commitment to long-term limb selling is also admirable, even if not everyone is going to be a fan of that particular style of selling I suspect. vs. Darby Allin (AEW, 11/13/2021) vs. Bryan Danielson (AEW, 3/5/2023) vs. Jay White (AEW, 11/18/2023)
May 21, 20241 yr comment_6021606 Still too soon for him, but he's getting there, for sure. He's capable of putting anything over in a match, he knows how to implement comedy as well as anybody ever, and he is actually a wrestler that can do a lot more than he usually does, but chooses not to for the sake of the match (and when he unleashes a more spotty persona, it's because the story of the match calls for it). Great character work protrayed in the ring.
May 22, 20241 yr comment_6021617 A great litmus test for how people view various aspects of wrestling.
September 12, 20241 yr comment_6024371 MJF is really good and is a guy who has some really high highs. For example, the Danielson Iron man and the punk dog collar match, but he also has a ton of really bad lows. For example, the Jay white match at full gear 2023. I just can't see MJF making my list. Maybe if he has a crazy good next few years but he feels more like a 2036 discussion and even then I think he has too many bad instincts.
