“He hugs his microphone, peers into the intimately situated crowd and sets sail on a 90-minute one-man show that slices and dices his days as a professional wrestler with animated humor and unexpected sensitivity: fall-out-of-your-seat funny.”
– Kenny Herzog, Long Island Press

“Stuns like a side piledriver”
– The Village Voice

“He is funny, prowling the stage and using his graying, 240-pound frame as a comic prop. It’s as if Spalding Gray had, at least for a few minutes, entered the body of Jonathan Winters.”
– Microsoft’s Slate

“The one-man show serves as a confessional of sorts, an exorcism of the demons one accumulates on the sleeper-hold circuit.”
– Time Out New York

“Johnny Valiant adds excitement to anything he performs in…he brings so much…he is awesome.”
– Billy Merritt, Piledriver – Upright Citizens Brigade Troop

“Johnny was always one of the most outrageous characters as a wrestler. Now, in standup, you don’t want to mess with Johnny.”
– Fred Geobold, WBAI-FM Light Show NYC
