I guess I appreciate his longevity. Never been a huge fan though, but the fact that he has existed beyond the shit show that was early 00s UK Indy wrestling into the resurgent modern scene is worth noting.

Very unlikely I'll vote for him, but I think he's been underrated for a few years now. He came to prominence by having high-flying matches with Jody Fleisch that stole the show wherever they went, but he's always been a bit more well rounded than that. Was surprisingly good on the mat when the situation called for it, and the fact he spent a lot of time touring with All Star meant he had to be able to do more than just a load of spots. I was particularly impressed when I bought a DVD of an All Star handheld from early 2001, and it featured 2 matches he had a fortnight apart against Chad Collyer. Both were good well-worked matches and they were both different, which was a pleasant surprise. The Jonny/Jody team in 1PW was the early anchor of the tag division, matching up well with all the indy super-teams Gauntley would fly in for the shows. He's still going strong now, and working wiser yet as smoothly as before. It's just a shame not as much modern Storm makes tape

Not seen almost anything of his from the past five years, but when people used to rave about him from the 2000's I just didn't get it. Felt he was incredibly sloppy back then and as if his matches were just running through a segment of pre-planned spots. Not in the same ballpark as a contemporary like Doug Williams.
