You may notice a trend in this tournament… Every single Ranger – is indeed a RED RANGER. Scott wanted Red Rangers killing each other – so that’s what we get. Check out the results below (they will be updated live every day with results from Twitter).

Keven Votes: ZEO Red Ranger

Why?

Because Tommy Oliver that’s why. This final four was only ever coming down to 2 for me — Jason (Austin St. John), the Classic Red Ranger and Tommy who took over the Red Ranger role in Power Rangers ZEO. Look – Jason David Frank is THE greatest Power Ranger of all time and even though he isn’t in his classic green or white get-up, he’s still a Ranger and whenever he’s a Ranger – wherever he’s a Ranger – he’s the best. Period.

If it came down to it, the ZEO Red Ranger would be going toe to toe with the classic Red Ranger after both of these dudes make quick work of those other two goons (Turbo and Samurai) because let’s face it – they never stood a chance. In the end – Tommy because… Tommy. You know…. Just Tommy. Plus when Tommy was the green ranger he kicked Jason’s ass all over the place. Wasn’t even close.

Sean Votes: MMPR (Classic) Red Ranger

Why?

 

You can’t beat the classics and that’s certainly the case with the original Red Ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Leading the way for the original superhero team, the character of Jason Scott was played with charisma and class by actor Austin St. John. But when it was time to save the world and morph into action, no one could easily handle Mighty Morphin Red Ranger once he was in action (minus the Green Ranger on a occasion or two).

Displaying a number of moves that many Power Rangers after him could only wish they could do, it’s hard to imagine another Red Ranger coming anywhere close to taking down the original Red Ranger (or even matching him in style from a suit standpoint).


The Final Winner is: The ZEO Red Ranger
