Jay Lethal:Ohhh Yes or Ohhh No

Machismo Fan

I'd like your opinion of Jay Lethal. Personally I say Ohhh Yes as he has been the top performer in TNA all year(look in the end of the video thread for some of his best matches). Despite the gimmick(which I have fallen for) and which he performs very well, he is the best all rounder in TNA.

I like Jay Lethal. He's got some talent and plenty of years to get better. I don't like his current gimmick though. I think the best way to put it would be that he comes across to me as the equivalent of Gillberg. It's a shame I think, but a lot of TNA fans obviously enjoy it so I can't criticise it too much

EDIT: I think a poll might be helpful

Thanks for the poll.

I like Jay, he's improved a sh*tload in the last 18 months. The gimmick is annoying but I think he plays the role well. His promos have an element of humour in them too, certainly a far cry from "This....is...the night...Ive been waiting for!!". I loved when he referred to Bound for Glory as the grandmother of them all. That whole promo was fairly good, even JB was good in it.

Good to see him pull out the Dragon suplex too in that match vs Daniels.

Love the worker, love the gimmick. Long may it last, beats the hell out of the dumb King Booker gimmick in WWE last year.

VR!

I think he's great. As Kevin Nash said, sometimes you've got to learn how to play a character before you can create you're own.

I think its absolutely gold. they took a guy who didn't particularly stand out and gave him ma gimmick that EVERYONE recognises. Anyone who's seen his hilariously bad ROH promos will be shocked by the level of charisma he has shown in this gimmick. Big thumbs up from me.!

Mr.Nice Guy

Very talented worker but it's the most retarded gimmick I've seen in a long time. Absolutely diabolical.

Here is the big difference though everybody including TNA and Lethal know its a crap gimmick so they have fun with it

Unlike WWE gimmicks which they actually think are good like The Daltons and countless others

He was better off in Special K...

Oh the days of Hydro, Angel Dust and the others 'getting high' before their matches. Until Low Ki kicked them all collectively in the head.

I really miss their "Victims of Hardstyle" entrance.
