Outlook - Rocky Romero is the younger member of the up-and-coming Pitbulls tag team with Ricky Reyes. Despite his size, Romero has added some mass, but more importantly he's added the color and technique to really improve his marketability. Experience in New Japan and EMLL has drastically expanded his in-ring work and he plays the brash antagonist of the Pitbulls. Romero has really taken to the MMA-influenced pro-wrestling style and being the youngest foreigner to work in New Japan has really spoken for his future with that company. Although the Pitbulls tag team has really made strides, Rocky Romero could definitely go somewhere independently.
