God I loved that Green Ranger. A flute dagger combo... summoning a dragon from the ocean...on top of his usual morphing.....he was def special.
Guy had a flute that sounded like a trumpet.
Guy could summon a jaeger equal to a megazord.
And Raoul is promoting the guy thats a tv version of Bada 😮💨

Uh-huh.
I sometimes feel lost though, as I stopped watching once MMPR finished, and never really kept watching the later shows. Part of it was being older, but I did lose a LOT of interest when the original 3 left, as I found the 3 that came in to be kinda bleh.

Naw not seeing it. Lip service is great but Tommy performed far better against Goldar than Jason.
You would be blind not to see it.
Jason has both showings (across MMPR, Zeo, and Forever Red) as well as lip service over Tommy.
No, Tommy did not perform 'better' against Goldar. He got in some surprise kicks after pretending to be surrendering, and even then took way more kicks to knock Goldar down than Jason did (he only needed one). It was hardly even real fight and Goldar Bfr'd in the end.
Jason was fighting Goldar in a small cage with electrified bars in some other dimension. Goldar had home turf and a far more menacing and limited location, especially since he was more focused on chopping Jason up with his sword, which he kept in his hands the whole tommy. Not the case against Tommy, since he even had one hand full with a device.
Not an apples to apples comparison. Not to mention Goldar went through villain decay over time and started becoming more of a comedy character who always goofed up as opposed to a capable lieutenant, and he had already started that transition at the time of his Tommy fight.
Hell, Jason in the T-Rex Zord even got the better of Tommy in the Dragonzord. Yeah, Jason even beat Tommy while the latter was in a supposedly superior Zord.
And again, you can't overlook Forever Red as that was their most recent on-screen appearance together. Jason showed that even getting off his couch and not being an active ranger for who knows how long, that he was the best fighter on the field at any given time. Even though Tommy is the one who gathered them all for the mission and was designated the 'leader', Jason showed him up. lol. His natural alpha-ness and leadership abilities took over when they got to the field and started the morphing sequence as Jason transformed first and lead the team in that sequence by getting to say 'Its morphin time."
Jason was schooling the leader of the bad guys, General Venjix, by himself. Tommy needed help from another Red Ranger to take on the lieutenant.
As for a theme song? Jason had that too as the Gold Ranger.
If Tommy is the Hulk Hogan of the rangers, Jason is the Ultimate Warrior. He had his number.
The only person I'd put above Jason as a fighter wasn't even a ranger per-se; Magna Defender. That dude was a beast.
