[5.0] "SuperBrawl IX is one of those WCW PPVs that looks solid on paper but ends up feeling frustratingly uneven. There's legit in-ring talent all over this card--Booker T, Benoit, Malenko, Saturn, Kidman--but WCW's trademark overbooking and weird finishes constantly get in the way. The tag title tournament is the highlight from a wrestling standpoint, and Booker T vs. Disco is better than it has any right to be, but stuff like the Elizabeth hair vs. Rey's mask match and the messy finishes drag the whole show down hard. It's not unwatchable, but it's a perfect snapshot of late-'90s WCW: flashes of great wrestling buried under questionable creative decisions. Worth a curiosity watch, not a must-see."

[5.0] "There was some good stuff here, especially in the first half of the show, but plenty also fell short - and once again the main event scene didn't deliver. The exception was Goldberg vs Bam Bam, which felt like the true main event, while Hogan and Flair turned in an uninspired match where nobody cared about the rules, capped off by yet another swerve finish with David Flair interfering. And unbelievably, it wasn't even the worst match on the card, as Hall and Piper somehow managed to deliver a dreadful bout, showing no chemistry and no interest in making it at least decent. That said, the show started strong: Disco Inferno had the best match of his career against the always-reliable Booker, Jericho vs Saturn featured some quality work from both men, Windham & Hennig vs Benoit & Malenko wasn't a classic but still serviceable, and The Outsiders vs Rey & Konnan had fantastic structure and pacing. Steiner vs DDP also showcased strong performances from both. Overall, a real mixed bag - but by that point, WCW had me used to it."

[4.0] "The only positive for SuperBrawl IX is that the actual wrestling wasnt THAT bad overall, with only one match really stinking out the joint, with the rest at least being somewhat watchable to one degree or another. The booking drags the show down A LOT, but overall I dont think you could say that it was a full-on Stinker. SuperBrawl IX is the definitely the next level up from true Stinkerdom though and I certainly wouldnt recommend watching it unless you either love the nWo or you just love getting angry at how stupid short sighted a major wrestling promotion can be"

[6.0] "Only one shitty match on this card. The rest was actually quite decent to good. It lacks one REALLY epic match though, so I actually gave it a 5.9."

[3.0] "The most notable thing about this show is how terrible the commentary is, with Bobby Heenan checked out entirely and probably drunk, and Tony Schiavone unable to tolerate him or deal with being wound up by him, it's clear they hated each other by this point. Frankly, I wish I still drank after watching this show. There were a couple of decent matches early on, but it fell right off by the fourth match and never recovered. NWO-era WCW never had good main events at their PPVs, but by this point the undercard was falling apart too. Avoid."

[4.0] "Do you like the nWo Wolfpac? do you like terrible finishes? do you like Kevin Nash? If so boy are you in for a treat! [1st match] One of the few good matches on the show, but Booker was unusually sloppy. *** [2nd match] Started off really good, until the first of the bizarre finishes occurred. ***1/2 [3rd match] Lacked the high flying stuff usually associated with the Cruiserweights, but high in drama and intensity. ***3/4 [4th match] I thought this was long and boring, and didn't seem like either team were actively trying to win a championship, they just did stuff forever. **1/2 [5th match] I think only Nash could love this match. ** [6th match] Overbooked & over-gimmicked, but I guess it made DDP look strong? ** [7th match] Piper did more than usual, but no way should he be holding a Title at this point. Finish probably unnecessary. *1/2 [8th match] Strong showing from Bam Bam, and a tough challenge for Goldberg. *3/4 [Main] Started off well enough, and was genuinely engrossing. But became yet another match riddled with interference and a dumb swerve. * Did they confuse this show with Uncensored? because that's what it felt like!"

[5.0] "Not as bad as I expected for WCW 99 PPV? s. The main event was average but I didn't expect much else. The card ranged from good to okay with the odd bad match here and there. Best To Worst: Scott Steiner vs. Diamond Dallas Page - [***1/4]. Barry Windham & Curt Hennig vs. The Four Horsemen (Chris Benoit & Dean Malenko) - [***]. Chris Jericho vs. Perry Saturn - [***]. Bam Bam Bigelow vs. Goldberg - [**1/2]. Kidman vs. Chavo Guerrero Jr. - [**1/2]. Konnan & Rey Mysterio Jr. vs. The Outsiders (Kevin Nash & Scott Hall) - [**1/4]. Hollywood Hogan vs. Ric Flair - [**]. Booker T vs. Disco Inferno [**]. Roddy Piper vs Scott Hall - [*]."

[6.0] "Actually a pretty solid show, though far from spectacular. There’s a lack of a really great match, but on the upside most of the stuff is not bad, and much of it is good. Booker/Disco is a decent opener, Disco was never very good but Booker is ready to be elevated at this point. Jericho/Saturn was just ok, a bit disappointing. The dress stuff isn’t too good, and neither is the Dickinson angle, even though the action is pretty good. Chavo/Kidman is a good CW style match, though not especially memorable. The tag title match is quite good, a bit slow at times but Benoit and Hennig especially have some very fun sequences. The mask vs. hair match is enjoyable at times, especially Rey himself, but of course the outcome was a mistake by WCW. It worked alright for Juvi, but Rey just looks too much like a little kid. DDP/Steiner is the match of the night, actually a pretty great battle between two guys who should have been on top of WCW at this time. Goldberg/Bigelow is honestly excellent for what it is, Bigelow is a little past his peak but still bumps around for Goldberg admirably, and Goldberg is working extra hard at this time. The main event is actually ok in terms of action and the crowd is into it, bloody and quite intense at times. The reveal of David Flair after the match as the guy who betrayed Ric is pretty stupid though, the shadow of Russo proceeding his actual arrival. Still, a fine show, especially compared to others of the era."

[3.0] "Pretty good event... on paper! Very little clicked as it should have, which is surprising when you see some of the match-ups. Booker T vs. Disco, Jericho vs. Saturn, Kidman vs. Chavo, Windham/Hennig vs. Benoit/Malenko, Steiner vs. DDP, Piper vs. Hall, Bam Bam vs. Goldberg, Hogan vs. Flair -- all of that sounds at least fairly entertaining... but pretty much everything under-delivered. Disappointing show."
