His image is exploitable, that's why he's getting pushed. I've seen him work some really good and really shitty matches, never really been a fan. Never understood why ROH even pushed him because he looked like trash compared to A Double and Roddy.

Ohno's looking great compared to how he used to look, I thought he looked best just before signing with WWE. His weight has fluctuated up and down since he signed. He's said in interviews that he despises the gym. I don't think his physique takes away though.

Yeah Seth is definitely getting a push in part due to his look. Of course that's how shit works in wrestling, everyone needs to fit into a certain niche to be marketable.

I've never seen anything in this guy. His terrible entrance is topped by 30,000 springboard flippy floppy moves, terrible rip-off of HBK's superkick, and a shit finish.

I wouldn't call it a rip-off exactly. A Super Kick is a Super Kick, at least he's quite good at doing them.

I honestly don't mind Seth Rollins. He's a good wrestler who could work with pretty much anyone on the main roster. The only thing I don't like about him is his persona, I think it'd get a bit annoying after a while. His name is also really shitty, but that's just a minor problem to be honest.

Dude he does his whole terrible stomping bit in the corner before he goes for the Superkick. Seriously, he needs to get his own material. Wrestlers crib each other's shit all the time, I get that, but blatantly taking HBK's whole superkick set-up and just tweeking it is pretty Blue.


I'll try to say something positive about the guy, I really enjoyed his 30 minute Ironman match with Dean Ambrose. That certainly takes cardio and skills to go 30 minutes. I get that. Still... fuck him. Ambrose was the star of that match. Shit, Ambrose is the star of any match he's in.

I honestly haven't seen him do the foot stomp that much. Or maybe I just never noticed it...

He also has that Super Kick where his opponents are on their knees. I don't know if he does it on NXT (I've seen very little of the show) but that's at least one variation that he can call his own.

I can see why people aren't high on him, but I don't think there's any denying his ability. That 30-minute Ironman match with Ambrose is just one example of that.
