Turtle's matches are designed to entertain through humor, but he often wins over fans with his ability to weave genuine wrestling skill into his antics. He uses his slow, comical pacing to draw in the crowd, only to surprise both the audience and his opponent with sudden bursts of skill and speed. He plays the underdog in most situations, allowing his opponents to underestimate him. His comedic approach to selling moves and setting up counters is essential to his charm.

Comedy spots
When his opponent tries to apply a simple hold, Turtle flails his arms and legs in a ridiculous and exaggerated way, shaking his whole body to escape. This often leads to his opponent releasing the hold out of sheer confusion or annoyance as Turtle somehow escapes despite looking like he has no control over his body.
Turtle frequently gets "stuck" between the ropes or with his head trapped between the turnbuckles. After getting caught, he flails wildly, trying to free himself while the opponent or referee attempts to help.
During a high-energy sequence, Turtle might run the ropes multiple times, but instead of bouncing back toward his opponent, he keeps running in circles. His opponent stands in confusion, waiting for Turtle to return, until Turtle eventually tires himself out and collapses to the mat in exhaustion.
Turtle has a recurring comedy bit where he accidentally targets the referee, mistaking them for his opponent. He'll attempt to perform a basic move, like a suplex, on the ref, leading to awkward struggles until Turtle finally realizes his mistake and profusely apologizes. This often leads to him getting scolded by the referee in an over-the-top manner.
-Will often oversell his opponent's attacks, like a basic punch will see him doing a backflip sell
-Will often hide behind audience members, getting them involved in matches
