Another Elgin kid who is doing good things. He was really strong on the first Glory Pro show, I thought he and Danny Adams worked really well both as a team in Alpha Class this year, and then with the break up angle, and he's broken in to AAW where he has proven very rootable as an under dog babyface. He's a favorite of a lot of the St Louis fans, a guy to watch as he will continue to get big opportunities.

I thought I posted in this thread earlier. Paco's a fun babyface and usually a solid hand, although he looked lost in NWL doing a college wrestler gimmick. That said, this dog-collar match against Danny Adams was really fun.

That Dog Collar Match is great. They have an I Quit match from Proving Ground Pro that just hit YouTube yesterday and it's just okayish.
I'm really torn about Paco. I saw him live several times last year, and he's clearly very good, and does have a rootable quality to him like I said in the first post. That said on a personal level he doesn't fully connect with me. I always sort of see him as a flat, but really solid wrestler, almost a Brad Armstrong type for lack of a better comparison. But the AAW and Glory Pro crowds really did get behind him as a star, and in the case of AAW a star well beyond how he was pushed. Aside from the dog collar match I don't know if he had a single other great match in 2017, but he did have a lot of good ones teaming with Danny before the split, and as a singles. He was sort of a quiet MVP of the first Glory Pro show with a good opening round match, and a real standout performance in the main event title match. It's hard for me not to compare him to Stallion who is right there as a contemporary, and who I like a lot more, but Paco is a good pro wrestler without question. He was kind of a breakout guy in 2017, albeit in a low key way, and I'm not sure I shouldn't give him some points for that.
