In BW he has a Rahl 32.
But his ag and pw is pretty decent.
Same for his Chart Stats.

When I was in Waterloo in 2018, the Hall of Fame museum had a poster on display billing Pepper Gomez vs either Buddy Rogers or Lou Thesz saying it was the other wrestler's greatest feud. I can't remember whether it was Rogers or Thesz as Gomez wrestled both but either way it was definitely hyperbole (but still a great poster.) Chad Olson TDalton stu, you three were there too that year. Do you guys recall that poster in Waterloo? I’ll be honest, I don’t remember that, but it’s probably down in the basement, so we can look for it this summer. |

I knew about the Kangaroos being the Q1 LOW Promoter Prime Cards, but I did not know either of the last two names in this LOW set and I am glad to see (as many of us suspected) that Pepper Gomez is indeed one of the names! In my LOW fed's history (during the MLW Period,) Gomez had violent feuds with both Ray Stevens and the Mountie. Pepper Gomez is also tied for 2nd place with Gorgeous George and Hardcore Hodge (Danny Hodge) for 2nd most Cruiserweight Championships in my fed with 2 trailing only the 3 reigns of Tiger Mask. When I was in Waterloo in 2018, the Hall of Fame museum had a poster on display billing Pepper Gomez vs either Buddy Rogers or Lou Thesz saying it was the other wrestler's greatest feud. I can't remember whether it was Rogers or Thesz as Gomez wrestled both but either way it was definitely hyperbole (but still a great poster.) Chad Olson TDalton stu, you three were there too that year. Do you guys recall that poster in Waterloo? Zeke, I don't remember that poster, wish I did. I'm banking either Tim or Chad knows though! |

The biggest issue I had with Gomez not succeeding is that I constantly forgot to apply his special mechanic to moves that it should have been applied to. I'd snap like 4 rolls later, "oh crap...he should have countered that move..." I know what you mean, Carl! I often had that happen to me the first times I used Pepper's B&W card but I've since gotten used to utilizing his reversal right away. When Ray Stevens got remade in Expansion III, I requested he have some type of move to the stomach (his "punches to midsection - 2" on L1O #5) so this his natural rival Gomez could hit a reversal on him. |

Was definitely expecting Ilio in this set, so it's no surprise, but I'm certainly not unhappy with the news.

A solid set. Not my favorite, but a solid one where you can fill in pieces in your fed

Glad to see Ilio in this set was one of my top wants for color update.
