I remember a lot of you guys praised him before. But damn... on SD yesterday, his kicks before the Stunner are the worst kicks I have seen in pro wrestling. He just let his toe touch the opponent without intensity. And the way he does it is awkward af. I guess cuz of his belly?
Even when he was walking down the ramp, he just dont look imposing. What do you guys see in him?

KO looks so ordinary. I can't take him seriously at all. If hes not going to hit the weights, he needs to change up his ring gear or something. He looks like a generic basement dwelling loser.
I get not every wrestler has to look like a bodybuilder, but there are two types of fat guys. Tough looking fat guys like Vader, and lazy looking smelly fat guys like Kevin Owens.^^^()()GERMANIC CREW()()^^^

I like him but I'm kind of biased as I've watched him and pulled for him from when he was in ROH all the way through NXT and to the main roster. He's a great talent and a great talker but even with my bias I just don't think he is a top guy. He had great momentum this past year and if they were ever going to pull the trigger on him they should have by now. His peak seems to be just below the top level though to make guys like Roman look good. It is interesting that they've kept him looking strong though and haven't given Roman any clean wins over him.

He is pretty good, but I agree his physique and that goofy-looking stunner are his worst assets.
When I first saw clips of his ROH work on youtube I was impressed with how amazing an unathletic looking guy like him can move. I think he would be better, if they somewhat aknowledged his terrible look.
He can still be that tough guy/prize fighter, who fights for his family, but they could throw in a little bit of Dusty Rhodes. Put some emphasis on how he is an ordinary family man and dad, who fought his way up. Make him more of an underdog character and less of an unstoppable force.
As for the stunner: He should just go back to his pop-up powerbomb or get another finisher. Maybe something cannonball-like? That move looks great when he does it partially due to his cannonball-like bodyshape.

It's pro wrestling. His physique will never bother me. it's fine. He performs well in the ring. Switching to the stunner as the finisher is going to be tough to get over because of who made it so famous. I think it's like what some of you said. His character lacks depth. He's pretty ordinary. The whole never gives up character he's doing now, it only works if you win. he's been getting his ass kicked for months now. There will not be a payoff. Not good for him.

Like CW Anderson or Steve Corino his body should hold him back from being a wwe superstar working in the main event , but it doesn’t. He debuted with a farmers tan and a dadbod, but within his first promo on John cena he had everyone’s attention. He has It and can connect with an audience. He just executed everything he did so damn well. The triple jump moonsault was impressive like blue meanies moonsault back in the day. Random but blue meanies ddt to Val Venus was the best ddt I ever saw up to that point in time.

I never really liked him. A portly turkey who hit the pints. I don't care, face or heal, I just never really liked him. In the past, I was starting to warm up to him as a character a bit. Then he opens his socialist pig mouth and I can't stand him again.

I disagree, though I don't like the stunner for him either. He has elite mic and ring skills, just doesn't have the look, I'd say that's the easiest of the three to work around. He doesn't have to be physically imposing to be a weasel heel or a relentless face who takes a constant beating and keeps bouncing back. If he left for AEW, he'd probably be their best talent after Cody and Moxley.
