I was gonna make a joke along the lines of "we have Kevin Steen at home" but f*** that, the guy is good and deserves credit. The only thing he really does like Steen/Owens is the cannonball to me. Dude feels like such a throwback to me more than anything else, while at the same time doing this shit a dude his size shouldn't be able to do. That chuck into the outside ropes just to clothesline them on the way down is one of my favorite spots right now. Just one of the best "F*** you" spots I can think of lol.

This is why a show like Dark is important, they're uncovering guys like Drake and giving them a chance to shine.

This dude is so good. I legit get excited when he's advertised for Dark
Him, Cesar, and Nemeth remind me of a stable the original ECW would do. Like they clearly have nothing in common but they're all entertaining together so f*** it

I wish The Pinnacle had gone with JD Drake instead of Shawn Spears.
He's a much better fit. Him, Dax and Cash would make a killer trio.

Spears is in The Pinnacle to take falls I wouldn't want JD Drake to be their fall guy. When he's signed officially he should be a bruiser. He does fit the FTR aesthetic though I wonder if they're saving room for Brock Anderson...

I appreciate that he's wearing Braden Walker's old singlet.

I definitely get Bigelow vibes from Drake, looking forward to seeing more of his work and hope he gets more matches on Dynamite.

I don't entirely agree, given Spears' whole thing is that his W/L record is honestly quite good and that's something they've harped on a lot, but he's had a relatively small number of matches with "name" talent, and he usually loses. So, I feel like if they had him lose a bunch of matches, that'd f*** things up a lot.

He is just so damn good. Would love to see him get a contract but I also think he could do some great work in New Japan should he ever get the chance.
