the way JBL Killer use to call

-Mic work/promos - until the moppy shyt i couldnt really tell you anything about a memorable perry saturn promo :russ:

...give him a 2

-Personality/gimmicks - perry was an odd crazy looking motherfukker..like i never doubted by looks that he wasn't tough but he was pretty bland to me..the moppy gimmick when that was supposed to be a punishment and getting that over is nothing short of amazing lol...give him a 4 for that

-Ring work (along with some of your favorite matches/feuds) - .eliminators was one of the best tag teams to never wrestled in the wcw or wwe...if they did they would have gotten over like the dudleys did...perry was pretty agile and hard hitting in his prime for a guy his size..could wrestle a whole bunch of styles..not a bad high flyer...rings of saturn and the death valley driver were quality finishers..he did lose a step in the later days of wcw and esp in the WWE as part of the radicals...most of his famous matches are with kronus as the eliminators..they got more than watchable matches out of the gangstas, pitbulls, dudley boys, etc...as a solo wrestler not as much outside of the feud with raven..and he didnt really shine in the wwe like benoit and guerrero did... give him a 6

-Overall rating (which doesn't have to be an average of the above scores) - i think 5, 5.5. is a good score for him....and its more because he was a good hand in the ring and also he was a good trainer for ECW...its a shame catching a bullet and other personal problems sent him into a career tailspin..hopefully there is a happy ending for him and not the usual wrestler ending

I gave em a 4 he was always corny on the mic.

8WON6 · Jan 24, 2018

gave him a 5.
promo/character is pretty much non existant. And in WWE, he became a straight up comedy act after getting mad at that jobber.
in-ring, I don't remember any great matches from him, but he did a lot of cool moves.

Cartier Murphy · Jan 24, 2018

I marked for him as a kid because he had a cool move set. Out of all the Radicalz, he’d come in last. Which is less an indictment of his talent and more an acknowledgment that he was stablemates with 3 of the best of a generation. I later enjoyed catching up on his early work I was too young to watch, like his team with Kronus as the Eliminators. I don’t remember him being able to talk all that well but he deserves credit for getting over wearing a dress as well as getting Moppy over. He had fun matches with Jericho, Raven, etc. I give him a 6 :ehh:

El Cocodrilo · Jan 24, 2018

Ive always thought he was gay

That's my two cents, for some reason most of what he did faded out of my memory :manny:

NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong · Jan 24, 2018

6. Decent hand in the ring with a good moveset

OmegaK2099 · Jan 24, 2018

It didnt help that rock cut that promo on him being cross eyed

Always was a fan. Him and Kanyon are overlooked when it comes to being innovators of the squared circle. The Rings of Saturn :ahh:

Da_Eggman · Jan 24, 2018

As a kid loved him in wcw had a killer move set and remembered him being the only guy to get a decent match out of Goldberg

Had a great fued/team with raven

Completely wasted in the E but he was badly on drugs apparently

Da_Eggman · Jan 24, 2018

First time Goldberg actually had a ten min match
