Ray is hard to rate. A lot of his prime isn't on tape and happened when Puerto Rico was in a down point. He's had runs in all the big time PR feds(WWC, IWA) and is still having good matches these days 20+ years later from his debut. I'd say he's right up there with Colon, Invader, Savio Vega. I could see him on my list towards to bottom but I'd love to see more of his feud vs the Colon or his IWA run as Rey Fenix.

Gonzalez is probably the best example I can think of of a guy who needs a match list/links for people to dig into.

I'll see if I can put something together from what's available online.

Bumping this because I really want to start digging into his work but want to know where to start

Watched a bunch of what's available from him this week. I came away really feeling bad for the guy as he is very talented but the combination of an awkward look, wild overbooking, and coming around after Puerto Rico had peaked hurts him. I will say that I think he is good as both a face and a heel, though as a heel he feels more natural. Watching him carry a green Carlito you can tell he's got the skills to be great, but I've not seen a great match of his that is available in full. The closest thing was probably his match with Shane from 2008 that has a stupid finishing run or a tag with him and Invader v. Savio and Victor from 2000, but even there he was not even the best guy on his team. At the end of the day he's someone I could see rating if a few great matches emerge, but absent that I can't see it.
