I didn't see the battle so Diz might of did well, but I just don't like his style. He tells a bunch of corny jokes, and spit a ton of filler.

Shotty goes too hard to try to prove himself. He should just chill and let his talent speak for itself. Both Ars and Shotty are diva-ish but Ars embarrassed himself worse with the choke.

Diz told Dumb that he's so Asian, his face looks like an electrical socket.
If you just laughed at that mental image, go watch this battle now.
If not, you can skip it.

I'ma have to CS this thought tho. Lux's notoriety may be slightly more rooted in when he started battling over what he brings to battles. Don't twist it, he has bars. But his bars are intricate, hard to follow, wordy, and complex. All of these things without a shadow of a doubt would get booed on the stage were it anyone but Lux.

That's more of a testament to his longevity, his brand, and the scarcity with which he gets on the stage.

Mook has a similar vibe, but his brand is "weaker" with the fans due to the quality of his wins through time. Recycled bars, low quality wins, and unmemorable performances.

Sad thing is, both of these dudes could change their brand in one move. If Mook gets on URL stage and bodies a new age dude, fans (not TBZ dudes) will knight him. If Lux gets on the stage and gets bodied by a new age dude, shyt's going to get real suspect fast.

If we're being 100, Mook lost most of his DVD era battles, VERY BADLY. He was just the youngest nikka out along w/ Cassidy at that time. The fact they never battled is also a tragedy.

Lux inspired all these guys who are top tier now. Then he came back and put on great performances against two guys from this era. He has nothing left to prove, not sure why you guys keep putting him on the same category as Mook. Maybe you guys only know THIS era of battling, I dunno. He's a legend.
I'm going to get my Tsu Surf on for a sec.
Jordan pushed off vs Byron Russell before he hit the game winner in his face. Is it fair? No. But does that mean Byron Russell can hang with Jordan? Never.

What did Lux do that Hollow didn't? Both are from the original era, outdoors battles, 106 etc. etc. As a matter of fact Hollow battled in every notable league from that era and across a greater multitude of opponets. This whole "Lux has nothing to prove" thing is a wash to me. He beat Calicoe then arguably lost his next two.

I think Hollow/Mook inspired just as many if not more people than Lux but that's my opinion.

Daylyt, OOOPS, etc. = baby Lux
Surf, Roc, etc. = baby Mook
DNA, Charron, etc. = baby Hollow

So the whole "Lux stands alone" argument isn't at all a thing in my mind. There are like three distinct pillars which each holds. Lux started the real talk thirds, Mook started the street bars for anyone, and Hollow did the first gimmick in a major event (HULK HOGANNNNNN!)

Its like you can say Mike the best but he's a wing player. But if you're a center you might look at Kareem as the best, if you're a forward you might say it's Lebron or Larry. They're all GOATS but in different categories.
