Outlook - Scorpio has wrestled successfully in the US, Mexico, and Japan, but it
is the latter that he has turned to in recent years. While charismatic in the ring, Scorpio's
limited character hurt his marketablility in the US. He was a highspot star in WCW and a
total bust as Flash Funk in the WWF, but had a strong run in ECW. Few highflyers have been
going so strong for so long, but Scorpio has managed to avoid serious injuries. Until he is
grounded, Scorpio will remain a relible preformer for whomever has him. For now, Scorpio seems
content to be a "top" foreigner in NOAH, where he is established and is used to help new gaijin
talent.
