He's got no sense of ring psychology or selling, usually recovering after offence with little sense of pacing or actual impact: he recovers from anything like he just stubbed his toe, and any limb work he shrugs off and does his normal high flying moveset without any sense of trouble. I can't score him any higher than this.ĭecent in the ring, but devoid of anything else that could make him a star. Lio is set to make his debut in MLW and NJPW soon and I wish nothing but the best for him. Now he's doing better in GCW where he had one more great match with Joey Janela. It seemed like his time in NXT humbled him a bit in my opinion. I liked his duet with Bobby Lashley as they had great chemistry together and I liked his NXT Cruiserweight Title reign, as short as it was. If he got his ego in check, then he would have been in way bigger star in WWE. However, his ego and attitude dragged him down a peg, especially with Vince McMahon apparently being a big fan of his. He's great in the ring and his promo skills are top notch. There's no problem with backing yourself, especially if others won't, but to the extent he does is pretty overbearing. In the age of content as king, he overdoes it, and his attitude has got him into trouble quite a few times in the past.
The problem with him is what's levelled a lot at the likes of Bret Hart and Ric Flair - he's his own biggest fan. I do like Lio Rush and think he's extremely talented at what he does. ) - Career Potential: Solid league-level cruiserweight wrestler with upside. Still needs to improve his mic work (though his stints as both an actor and sports entertainment-based wrestler have helped in comparison to where he was at years ago. Hasn't always navigated political situations correctly or with maturity. Flaws: Is small by major league standards and may be limited to cruiserweight (or even manager) duties at the highest level. His star is on the rise as he continues to add more accolades beyond the independent circuit. Has an exciting arsenal of moves to his disposal. Lio hat sich schwer an der Schulter verletzt und hat entschieden das erstmal seine Karriere beendet.Īssets: Has come a relatively long way in a relatively short amount of time within his career by dedicating himself to wrestling. Er hat auch schon einige Songs herausgebracht. Es ist auch sehr ungewohnt ihn als Manager von Lashley zu sehen. Ist Schade man weiß einfach nicht was man mit ihm machen soll. 2019 Aktuell hat er bei der WWE keinen guten Stand soll auch im Doghouse sein. Ich freue mich für ihn hoffe das man ihn aber nicht in ein Tag Team mit seinen ehemaligen Partner Patrick Clark den heutigen Velveteen Dream steckt.
2017 Er hatte nun sein letztes Indy Match bei MCW und kommt zu NXT. 2017 Verdiente Aufwertung von 8 auf 9 Punkte längst überfällig und bei PWG und wXw wurde er auch schon gebookt, wunderbar. Wahnsinns High Flyer, sehr beweglich, tolle Moves und Kicks und Charisma hat er auch. Wird nicht lange dauern dann wird er mal von PWG und wXw gebookt werden das wird sicher in der Zukunft kommen. Er könnte einer der Durchstarter 2016 werden. EDIT: Bei AEW gefällt er mir richtig gut bisher.ĭer Bursche gefällt mir richtig gut ist auch noch sehr jung erst 21 Jahre alt und bei ROH hat er sich durch das Top Prospect Tournament sehr bemerkbar gemacht. Jetzt bei NJPW STRONG bin ich gespannt, wozu er es bringt. Auch sein Karriere-Ende, dann wieder nicht, dann doch. Über seinen Charakter kann man definitiv streiten, der ist nicht ganz sauber. Als Heel mit seinem Aussehen durchaus ernst zu nehmen. Lio Rush gefällt mir im Ring richtig gut.
I just don't think he's anything special and it seems the hype on him has passed. And given how small he is, it makes no sense how people sell his moves like a Kenta strike or a slam from Strowman. But yes, I agree, his worst aspect is his lack of selling, it detracts so much from the match and I just stop watching at that point. Whenever he talks, he's just obnoxious and still sounds like a heel, so what is even the point of being a face' On top of that, his matches are just uninspired and nothing worth watching.
