This one is super easy. No way X Pac should lose even with Road Dogg being amazing on the mic.

Road Dogg is like Bubba. Amazing as a tag team member but went less than no where in single competition. Pac was amazing for a long long time. He did both singles and tag team. Just overall better in everything besides mic skills honestly.

On the ic he was very poor in all fairness. He could cut a "this sunday" promo and that was about it.

One of things I think Road Dogg did well that is an underrated metric is he connected on a human level. I mean Im not saying he was better Im just playing devils advocate. I havent voted yet.

Still gotta go with X pac as the beter wrestler but Road Dogg did a lot more with a lot less IMO outside of being quite the talker there wasn't much to him but his odd move set was entertaining his finisher was bland and ill fitting but he did manage to keep my attention a lot longer than Xpac did. |

Struggling to think of a worse athlete to hold the IC belt. Very Enzo Amore, although I think Enzo is a much better promo without his schtick than Road Dogg was.
For those reasons, and for the fact that "at the Alamo" is potentially the cringiest thing I have seen in wrestling, going Pac here |

I think I can sway the voting in Road Doggs favor
Just remember people that 123 KID led a group called X-factor it sucked and the had the worst theme ever that is what you are voting for if you pick him. Last edited by KIRA; 11-06-2017 at 06:14 PM. |

The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. If that doesn't fit the Outlaws to a T I don't know what does.
X Pac easy. |

Hey. Somehow I have spaced on the past few of these.
Anyways..... I'd say X-Pac has the advantage in the ring, while Road Dogg has the advantage on the microphone..... Having a hard time deciding between the two..... my head says Road Dogg, but my gut says X-Pac....... gonna go with my gut and pick X-Pac..... |

Feel like if X Pac was as tall and big as Road Dogg he would have turned into a semi main eventer easily.

This is a strong case. Need a counter point for this. Did Road dogg do something WORSE than waltman at his worst?

In contrast I actually liked Road Dogg and R-Truth the theme and the team they just never got off the ground

I'm surprised that Road Dogg isn't doing as well as Bubba.
I was never a fan of Road Dogg. Found the act one-note. Then I went through a phase of "Road Dogg probably knew what he was doing a lot more than I think he did," and kind of appreciated how he tailored himself to an era. Now I've come back to "man, were the Outlaws overrated." Honestly don't know how to objectively rate the man, because I can see a case for "he fucking sucks," and I can see a case for "one of the hottest stars of the Attitude era and that's all that matters." Unfortuantely for Road Dogg, X-Pac was too. He was also the best mid-card guy in the ring they had for a long time there. Underrated as a promo and personality too. I remember when I started watching there was this myth that the guy sucked, but he's really, really, really good at what he sucks. It's hard to imagine him going beyond where he did, for whatever reason, but he had more charisma going for him than HHH did when he was pushed. Note: I'm actually expecting X-Pac's Hall of Fame match, if he gets there, to be against HHH and people to vote HHH. |

Did they really? I consider Johnny Parisi's Sunday Night Heat run more successful than most TNA things, just because they happened in the big leagues.

Lol.......I still like the X Factor theme and was pissed back in the day that the WWE didn't release it on one of their album.
I was actually mad when they changed it |

lol Road Dogg's tag team with K Kwik was worse than X Factor. He was just too fucked up on drugs to see the whole thing through.

X Pac and Justin Credible were a pretty good team. I watched them wrestle on Heat a few times against Too Cool

Honestly, X Pac's only knock in that time was he kept doing the same thing. Sort of like how Rey Misterio started eating shit with crowds even though he was still pretty good. You just knew he was just gonna do the standards. A crotch chop here. A bronco buster there. Goatee. Bandana. Greasy Hair.
He was WAYYYYY better than that. But that's what he turned into at the time. Such an insignificant part of his career though, if you really think about it. But people really shit on him. In saying that, X Pac's worst IN RING is probably on par if not better than Road Dogg's best. Road Dogg isn't even bad in the ring but he's no where close to Waltman. |

A good contender might be when X-pac and Road Dogg ran around for awhile doing the DX shtick while being the only two guys in the group (Its not the same as HBK and HHH calling themselves DX because they are DX) everybody else had gone to do their own thing and all that was left were the two members of the faction you liked the least it was sad to watch.

X-Pac and Kane might have been the best mismatched tag team until Booker T and Goldust.
