He was offering suggestions, and for what it's worth not only does he come from a background where he would be qualified to make suggestions, but they happened to be true. First you're all up in arms about your look, and then a couple posts later your talking about how you're going to change it. So apparently you already were aware your image didn't present a professional. When you dress like a backyard wrestler, that's the first thing people think. Why stake the decks against you? It does look second rate when you're out there in a Punisher T-Shirt.
As for his notes about you hit too many high spots, from the video I saw, it's totally true. There was a lot of flash in there, and I understand in a highlight video you're not going to show any real psychology, how could you? It's a HIGHLIGHT video. But it certainly seemed like there was a LARGE number of high spots in a FEW matches. Which leads to the natural assumptions. The first of which is, you are a mark for yourself, and you really want to hit all your best shit all the time. In your intro you felt the need to tell us that this angle was the best thing going in your promotion. Why the fuck would we care what YOUR perception of YOUR angle was? Again, nothing definitive, but it does lead to the conclusion you think you're some pretty awesome shit. Coupled with the fact that you went into high defense the second someone suggested ways to improve tells me you think you know it all already. Which, again, kind of inching towards that conclusion of you mark for yourself all over again doesn't it?
In the end, I have a couple notes I could give that I saw, some things that I would suggest, but I have a feeling it would fall on deaf ears and you likely wouldn't even finish what I wrote before you started in on why I am/was wrong. Hope you grow up son, you've obviously got some good skill, but it appears to me you lack the discipline to get better. And I've seen a LOT of those guys come and go........
