And that guy is Kyle O’Reilly. If I have ever seen his work before coming to NXT, I have forgotten about it. What I do remember is for years reading him described as the most boring wrestler on the planet. So, imagine my surprise when every time Undisputed Era’s music hits, my attention is immediately drawn to him. He has an off the charts physical charisma if you ask me. I really get a kick out of the way he struts to the ring, for some reason I just think it looks damn cool and badass. In ring, he looks like he is murdering people. Does anyone else think he badly overshadows Cole? I am really enjoying him, I hope he gets a singles run.

I actually really enjoyed his in ring work in ROH/New Japan. Loved his matches with Shibata. You should check them out, especially the one at "King of Pro Wrestling 2016."

I'm glad you enjoy him, sincerely.
I think he looks like a try hard goober and his walk to the ring is the best possible example.

I stopped watching ROH when the Undisputed Era guys were on top, so after years of reading about them I was excited to see what they were all about. So far I find all three of them pretty boring and have no idea which one is O'Reilly and which one is Fish.

Fish’s trunk’s also have a picture of a fish as well. |

Also, no need to take it so personally when someone doesn't like your favorite wrestler. |

Really, I believe they just don't care to and there is really anything wrong with it, just annoying. As for Kyle, I first took notice when he was a jobber on ROH's HDNET show. I think he's great in the ring but does shine when paired with some like Cole or Fish, either as partners or foes, who can bring out his personality. I really recommend finding his matches with Cole from Supercard of Honor and Final Battle from 2016. |

I love all three Undisputed Era guys, personally.

Seemed you actually took it a bit more personally that I liked the guy in your original post. But, genuinely, the guy named Fish has a giant fish on his tights. I am pretty sure you know which is which. I truly don’t understand how you could see 2 dudes in the ring, one you know has the last name Fish, see a fish on his tights, and go “hmm I wonder if that is Kyle O’Reilly. |

Fish is the one with all the personality of the two, while O'Reilly has the wrestling game down pat (not to knock Fish). I can't help but feel WWE will push Cole to the WWE Title in that annoying corporate guy who uses the same old boring chicken shit heel tactics they love. |

I like all three guys in U-Era, but this time last year Cole and O'Reilly were in a bitter blood feud, and now they're buddies. That's a little jarring.

I'm digging them all so far. Loving the group promo thing in the back they're doing now as well. Some more of that could go a long way to establishing character for each of them. Someone on here equated it to NWO esq which is a good comparison.

I’m liking all three but that goofy, awkward hand sign thing needs to go.

Cole's my fave and I'm still discovering who Kyle and Bobby are, but I like all 3.

Not that I'm going to ever throw it up, myself. |

It's weird, I'm not usually someone who cares much about physiques and shit like that, but Adam Cole looking so small keeps me from buying into him. As much as I enjoyed the match, I couldn't help thinking about it during WarGames.

But stay away from his match with Cole at WK 11 ROH was scrambling with both guys because they knew they were out the door |
