Opinions on X-Pac?

[Captain d00m - Mr. 3000]

So the NWA did a showcase/TV taping at my local fed, and it had a bunch of big name guys, including X-Pac. I wasn't so excited about him, considering all the bad reports and such, but he came in, wrestled a good match, and thanked everyone for coming saying it was an honor to work for us. I'd like to think he was being sincere. Anybody else have any stories/thoughts/rants?

Btw, just thought id share pics.

Lol at you being taller than Scorpio

Im a be at a similar NWA show today with the same talent. Scorpio Sky is facing eighter Adam Pearce or Xpac for the nwa title

Not dependable. XPac has never been great at anything. Combine that with his desire to be not dependable......he will always be someone that had a cup of coffee in the wrestling world.

I liked him back in 98. Then again, I was only ten.

[Samsquamch]

I like X Pac, and pretty much always have. I just think hes got some stuff in his personal life that can make his professional one look bad to others at times. But he is still able to perform great, and is usually pretty cool with the people from what I hear.

X-Pac has been my favorite wrestler since I watched him beat Razor Ramon back in 93, I have always been a fan of little guys since they seem more real to me than a guy like Brock Lesnar who are just massive it just seems fake and scary.

I met X-Pac last year at the Chicago Comic Con and he is a great guy he sat there and b.s.ed with me and my girl. Let us take pics and shoot some vid of him and he just played for the camera he wasn't an a$$hole like some of the people were. He was even funny I told him I cheered for him during the "X-Pac heat" days and he said "OH that was you?". When I told him he was the reason for me coming to the Con he seemed really flattered and grateful for it. He waved at us when he was just walking around with Nidia which I thought was funny cause I figured he wouldn't be so polite. When Nidia and him were leaving I walked up to him and shook his hand one last time and said that it was an honor to meet him. It really made my day to meet him and I was really happy that I didn't geek out too much.

I only liked watching him in the GWF during his Jerry Lynn feud, way before he got all "Kliqish". He just seems like he constantly needs to be blowing his nose.

He was alright as The 1-2-3 Kid against the likes of Bret Hart and so on, but the whole 'X-Factor' thing was a bit crap...plus the Bronco Buster is an insult to wrestling IMO...

[NAЯDO]

Sean Waltman is my idol!

[RSCTom]

Still one of my favorites and it's hugely disappointing to me that he didn't pan out in TNA. He's definitely one of the reasons I was excited January 4th, so maybe he'll be back since it doesn't seem he burned that bridge completely. Either way, despite the guys personal problems I've always enjoyed him. Cool that he threw down for you guys the way he did...

Ok i went to the show last night and it was amazing the whole show went together well. The co-main event was Natural selection & Adam Pearce vs Joey Ryan , Scorpio Sky and Xpac. They came out to the dx music and the place went wild for Xpac and his teamates. Scorpio Sky and Joey Ryan looked like they were having fin doin the crotch chop. Once Xpac hit the bronco buster as well as scorpio and joey the arena went crazy sounded like there were thousands tere but only like 70 people were there. After the match Xpac came out and took pictures and even gave me a igned program. Heres the pics of me with xpac and my lil bro with him. Xpac was really cool to my bro.







On a side note thanks to AP (Johnny Yuma) for coming up to my bro after the match for a pic with him he wouldnt stop saying that the champions tok picture with him.

[Spicoli~!]

I've always liked him and thought that he could've really made a bigger name for himself had he not gotten too involved with drugs and whatnot.

[RSCTom]

anyone ask him what's up with TNA at these shows? Is he done or does he say he's coming back?

[sean™]

Eh. Was never a big fan. Although his reign as Light Heavyweight champ was pretty good, with some good matches.

Wha?

How can you say he was never great at anything? I was an incredible worker during his first WWF run and his nWo days. He had great matches with Ramon, Bret and Owen Hart, Hakushi, etc. Aside from that, he has one of the best minds in the business and is truly greatful to his fans.

Sadly, in the last few years his personal life has played havoc with his career, but prior to his personal problems and neck problems, he was an amazing worker.
