[8.0] "Daniels vs O'Ryan was very nice little opener for 4 minutes; TK is remarkably average but good at what he does and I have an interest in him as he works local shows I've been to and done well (**1/2). Castle vs Cabana was just a midcard match, but Castle is incredible no matter what, and the Boys are very good at their role (~***). Scurll vs Dutt was a really good isolated championship match; it needed no build to tell its story and it told that story well, with Dutt's arm being worked but his experience helping him pull through. Dutt is SO fluid it's incredible (***3/4). Ospreay vs Dragon Lee was a pure flippy spotfest without Scurll to ground it like at Final Battle, but it had a story of two guys trying to outdo one another to help structure it somewhat; the offense in this was just insane, and Dragon Lee's win was a shock, but overall it was just that great offense, as the story it went for at the beginning sort of fizzled away (***1/4). Bucks vs White/Rush opened up hot with really beautiful tag offense from the rookies, then the Bucks, and then two great 2v1 segments with both faces; the action kept coming, and the story of getting the Bucks to hit each other and taking their superkicks was very nice. Up-tempo tag match with a great dynamic (***3/4). The reaction for the Broken Hardyz was fucking immense, incredible moment there; a really hot sprint that saved a lot for a blowoff between the teams later on, the bloody mouths of Matt & Jeff were a cool visual, and the reaction for the title change (and singalong) was great (***3/4). The battle royal was mostly filler, with stuff involving Sho/Yo, War Machine, and Cheeseburger being good; the finish was fine (**1/2). The trios match was far from the filler it seemed, building Cody/Lethal well and calling back to Briscoe vs Page; great pacing (***1/2). I have zero interest in Fish or Cole, so they couldn't get my attention from the start, but it wasn't bad (**3/4). Very solid show with a strong middle."

[6.0] "As they say in life, so goes in wrestling, timing is everything. TNA talks fell apart, their highest-profile upcoming gig a a month away for the company w/ a big house show in the media capital of the world... it made perfect sense for the Hardy's to not just promote Lakeland, but to start working. After a high, but not remarkable, contest the Bucks left their fans satisfied, but the Hardy's, as more successful people somehow do, were able to shock those in attendance, and once there was a match, inevitably there would be a change. Now this will only work if the Bucks get the straps back b/c not only are they the besties (sorry D Vega/M Fitchett, ) but who knows how long the Hardy's will stick around. Their workrate is not exactly ROH-level so the backlash could occur; that would be most unfortunate, but ironic Mr. Broken. Bully's mild-mannered/earnest mic work was a bit too reliant on sentiment for something beaten to death, 'ECW, ' and I would say PWG is a sustained entity that has also hit 'lightning in a bottle. ' Bully = all depends on what they do w/ him. There's a world title match in-ring and Daniels and Ian, who was miscalling moves all night (see Os/D Lee, ) were blabbing about the future (and that includes Frankie! ? ! ) However, after being a selfish tweener t/out his TV title reign I didn't care about Fish anyways. Nor do I care about the 6 man Bullet Club semi, M Taven's continued push, Sonjay Dutt, or Jay White. So although I felt the show had a lot of unattractive elements, its very notability makes it a recommended show to purchase. However, if I was to use my time most wisely, I would start at 44:25, continue to 01:31:15, maybe catch a glimpse of the battle royal to see all those bodies in one ring, (around 01:36:00) and then FF to 02:13:30 and respect that it's a world title. Kudos to booking the right ending; the face had the better techniques, but the heel was more clever. 6. 25"

[5.0] "Daniels vs. TK O'Ryan & Castle/Cabana were both very forgettable (*), Scurll/Dutt had it's moments, a pretty solid match (**1/2), I understand being high on Dragon Lee vs. Will Ospreay if you like Ospreay's style, but I thought it was awful (*), Bucks vs. Rush & White was good (***) & the surprise appearance of the BROKEN Hardy Boyz was awesome, loved the match vs. The Bucks - MOTN for me (****), the Honor Royale did it's job as a breather after the awesomeness of the previous match (*), Bullet Club vs. Lethal & The Briscoes was really good - at first I wasn't paying much attention to it, but then I noticed it was getting really awesome & I had to re-watch it from the start - really good match (***1/2), the main event between Adam Cole & Bobby Fish was really damn good too, loved how Fish kept targeting that leg of Cole throughout the match (***1/2). Started off pretty meh, but once we got to the first tag match of the show, it got pretty awesome."

[10.0] "Fantastic show. Television Title match, Will Ospreay vs. Dragon Lee, and the Tag Team Titles match are high quality and at least 4 stars. The Six Man Tag and World Title matches were good and at least 3 stars. Battle Royale felt like a break match, but nothing to complain about there. Christopher Daniels vs. TK O'Ryan was 2. 5 stars. Colt Cabana vs. Dalton Castle was 2. 75 stars. Overall it was a great card that had great pacing and enough moments to make it worth the buy."
