I see a lot of praise for the guy but I know nothing about him. I am leaning toward not liking him for a few different reasons, but feel free to change my mind. Don't know what you can link to here, but you can always pm me stuff that can't be shared aloud.
So it's up to YOU, sell me on Homicide.

If you don't appreciate the guy, you probably won't like him. I know some are turned off by the thug factor of Homicice. Anyway, I like him because he can do it all. He's a brawler, a high-flyer, a technical wrestler...he's good at it all.
It's tough to understand him on the mic sometimes but there's a certain charm to it.

Can I ask you why you are leaning towards not liking him, given that you know nothing about him?

Why "lean towards" anything if you don't know anything about the guy?
Homicide's a great worker who can work technical matches, brawls, do some high flying, and sells like a champ. He's also got a very "livewire" personality, and, watching his gimmick, you sometimes almost wonder if it's real or not, since he plays it pretty naturally.
EDIT: Bah, DSR beat me to the question.

Ever wonder what New Jack would have been like if he were technically sound, kinda puro, and sounded like he had a cold? It's sorta like that, kinda.
...That's the best I explanation I could have come up with...Everyone else talks about all the stuff he can do, I prefer to be short and to the point.

You forgot to mention Homicide is...what's the word I'm looking for...oh yeah, professional! As opposed to New "that stabbing was a work" Jack.

I myself am not too crazy about Homicide. I like the character, but I have yet to see a Homicide match that I really liked that didn't involve chairs, a cage, and/or Bryan Danielson or Doug Williams. Then again, I haven't kept track of TNA lately.

Then again, I haven't kept track of TNA lately. Homicide vs. AJ Styles (IWC) Homicide vs. CM Punk (Round Robin Challenge II) Homicide vs. Samoa Joe (multiple occassions) Homicide vs. Austin Aries (Best of American Super Juniors Tournament) Homicide & Kenta Kobashi vs. Samoa Joe & Low Ki (Unforgettable) Homicide vs. Dan Maff vs. BJ Whitmer vs. Colt Cabana (Death Before Dishonor) Homicide vs. BJ Whitmer (Main Event Spectacles) Homicide vs. Spanky (Round Robin Challenge III) Homicide vs. Nigel McGuinness (Midnight Express Reunion) Homicide & Rocky Romero vs. Jack Evans & Roderick Strong (Joe vs. Punk II) Homicide & Low Ki vs. Samoa Joe & Jay Lethal (Manhattan Mayhem) Homicide vs. Matt Hardy (Redemption) I have yet to see any of his recent ROH stuff, as I am behind and need to catch up, but I think the matches I listed are more than enough.

Homicide doesn't care whether you give him 7Up or Sprite.

Nothing BAD, but nothing amazing, either. *shrug* The character's about all I can see the appeal in.

Even if you don't see anything particularly special about the guy, I don't see what there is to really dislike about the guy. He's a solid worker who's pretty good on the mic, and he's had some good/great matches.
I'm not his biggest fan, but he's a damn hard worker. I think that's what a lot of people appreciate about him.

I always liked how he worked around his limits. Whenever he fought Joe, he'd use moves that worked with the larger opponent in Joe. The only thing that's ever bugged me about Homicide is the fact that he uses the Lariat as a finisher. I've always felt that it should be reserved for more stronger wrestlers like Hansen and Kobashi.
