>>12700294Promo work? Top notch
Wrong, his promos are long, rambly, and boring.
Selling? Top notch
Decent, but not exceptional - certainly on the level of guys like Bret Hart, Austin, Savage or the like.
Believable punches/offense? Top notch
Better than average.
Ability to sell a feud? Top notch
Wrong. Paul's best feuds were when he was the muscle for the actual big heels (Vince and Stephaine). When he has the carry by himself and is unable to hide behind a group, he's lackluster.
Ability to be hated? Top notch
Mostly because of his backstage politicking and marrying the boss's daughter.
Ability to work a crowd? Top notch
Yeah, I would say this is a genuine strength of his - but how much is that the audience getting fucked bored.
Drawing power? Top notch
KEK. No. Nigger was a flop as a draw and a GIGA flop as a babyface. He's the guy who works with the actual draw.
Would Paul have been the champion? Yeah, I think so, he has a great look and can work a basic match. But he was never the guy. Ironically, he hadn't married Stephaine and hadn't been such a massive cunt backstage, people would probably look fondly on his body of work. Instead, he's just a testament to Vince's stupidity and nepotism.
