Outlook - PJ Friedman has had a lot of benefits due to his size and experience, but has just gone into weak companies. He was Steve Williams second in All Japan, then Doc left and they've not really used him well since. He was pushed hard in MLW, but then they closed up. Friedman is a decent big man of the Taz mold, but without a good company behind him he is basically meaningless. Expect him to continue along and maybe get future shots with indies and even Japan, but Friedman's career seems cursed with the changing of the times.
