Grizzly is just too small to be in ROH, it doesn't make his matches very believable...and yes like somebody else said, it makes other wrestlers look bad. See I don't mind him in Chikara for example.

Give him a TV Title push.

I'm certain I could job better than Grizzly, if all it takes is attending and graduating from the training school than I may start a Kickstarter fund.

We shall call it The Job of Patrick.

Don't know if this is still the case, but I think he used to work ring crew a lot, even when he wasn't getting booked. I'm guessing they sometimes use him because he is already there.

Mondo's commentary is actually the thing about Grizz's matches that annoys me the most. He needs to slip back into a comedy role, though, as they really don't have anywhere else for him to go.

I had pretty much stopped noticing him to be honest.

However seeing Bison press him to the floor at the 7th Anniversary is still amazing.

If you're gonna have a character like this around then you need to do something with it. He's been in ROH for years now and I literally can't remember a SINGLE match that he's won.

Actually wait. Here is every match Grizzly has won in ROH.

Grizzly Redwood and Andy “Right Leg” Ridge beat The Bravado Brothers
Bobby Dempsey & Grizzly Redwood beat The House of Truth (Michael Elgin & Zach Gowen)
Grizzly Redwood beat “Brutal” Bob Evans
Grizzly Redwood pinned Sonjay Dutt with a small package
Grizzly Redwood beat Silas Young
Grizzly Redwood beat Rhett Titus
Grizzly Redwood & Buchwhacker Luke Williams beat Irish Airborne.

In his entire ROH career he's won 7 matches and he's been in the company since 08.

What is the purpose of that? At least give him a storyline or something. He had that like thing with Necro and the Embassy and I think that's literally it.

You're forgetting TV tapings. He pinned Erick Stevens with a victory roll on HDNet once.

He pinned QT Marshall in 13 seconds.

I'd rather watch a Grizzly Redwood match than Marshall, Tadarius Thomas, or Rhett Titus.

I think the Mondo/Redwood tag team will be fine. And when Mondo eventually turns heel on Grizzly, they will have a really fun undercard feud.
