[0.0] "Genuinely unwatchable because of the strobe lights that flash through most of the "match." Nothing resembling a wrestling match here, as it is mostly the two guys climbing up the trusses forever (despite Vampiro's supposed fear of heights), followed by fighting on top of the trim that the camera can't catch, and then the grand finale--the Sting stunt double falling to his doom. His wig didn't make it all the way down with him. Truly some of the worst crap I've ever seen in wrestling."

[0.0] "Quite possibly the worst WCW PPV overall. A lot of the most tragic ones still have some good stuff on them... this has nothing to redeem it whatsoever. There's not a single good match on the show, the Sting/stuntman stuff is laughable, the tables match was a joke, the main event was horrendous and there's just a Russo stench all over the show with the endless fuckery. Oh and to cap it all off they turned their biggest babyface heel in a moment absolutely nobody wanted. A dismal and hugely damaging show, not even sure this one is in the "so bad it's good" category, it's just really, really bad."

[0.0] "Very much a situation where the sum of the parts is less than the total. Some matches here aren't total garbage, but when it gets bad, it gets really, really bad. Some of the worst television WCW or any promotion has ever offered is on display right here, and I'd say you should avoid watching this but you really shouldn't, because this is exactly the type of crap that makes you breathe a sigh of relief that a lot of the people responsible for this fiasco are now finally away from the business, even if they did get far too many second chances."

[0.0] "WCW The Great American Bash (2000) is just one of, if, not the worst wrestling shows of all time with absolutely zero redeeming qualities and it was a massive nail in the coffin for WCW. Nothing else to say over than just that."

[0.0] "There are times when you go back and watch old wrestling and makes you appreciate what we have today. This is one of those shows. WCW deserved to go out of business with this absolute clown show. Peak Russo stupidity. Every match has a stupid gimmick, all the wrestlers have a stupid gimmick, all the matches have a screwed up finish. We dropped a guy on fire from 40 feet in that air and couldn't even get a crowd reaction they killed off their audience so bad. One of the worst of the worst."

[0.0] "I knew it was going to be bad but jesus wept this made me re think what I am doing with my life at least 7 times. David Flair was in the best match of the night which tells you all you need to know. Also fuck you Russo for depriving us of Tank Abbott vs Scott Steiner."
Derek Joists wrote on 05.12.2022:
[0.0] "Peak Russo, which means peak awfulness. It looked bad just looking at the card, where there's no matches that actually seemed interesting, but in practice it was so much worse, with even the few matches that could have been decent ruined by overbooking and meaningless swerves. When in 2000 Hogan doesn't have the worst match you know things are bad. By this point it was clear WCW was irredeemable."

[0.0] "Highly appropriate that Castrol sponsored this PPV, because what a dumpster fire this whole show was! yet again the rules were "relaxed" meaning you can literally do anything and it's cool. So obvious that WCW were trying to be ECW here, and also very obvious that they were desperately trying to relieve the nWo angle with the New Blood. [1st match] Call this a Lumberjack match, because that's what is basically is. Starts ok, but then breaks down. Finish is really obnoxious, Corporal Cajun rolled Loco onto Disco right in front of the ref, and he just let it go. ** [2nd match] Vito cheated on The Bull with The Hardcore belt. **1/2 [3rd match] Ambulance matches tend to have swerves, and this one is no different. **1/4 [4th match] This was oddly enjoyable, finish again ruined it a little. *** [5th match] Very weird take on the Table stip. Finish made little sense and made me mad. * [6th match] This has to be one of the stupidest ideas for a match ever. 3 guys in basically a small MMA Cage... and they can barely move around to do anything! at least it ended quickly. DUD [7th match] This Hogan rub really isn't doing much for Kidman, as they produce yet another dull match. *1/2 [8th match] Even Rick can't help David to a decent match. 1/2* [9th match] I guess you can call this a reverse scaffold match? a few basic moves in the ring before they bail and head towards the stage. Sting takes a pretty high bump... to zero reaction. And yes the Human torch spot itself is pretty awful, as is the aftermath as the commentators give it the Owen Hart treatment. -** [Main] This probably is the worst main event of the year 2000... and that's saying something! -**1/2 Even at their most worst, usually there's at least 1 or 2 matches on WCW's PPVs that aren't awful... that certainly isn't the case here."

[1.0] "This was peak-Russo WCW, and ultimately a pretty miserable viewing experience. Every match loaded with unnecessary interference (the Cruiserweight Title match might as well not have been going on, so little focus was placed on the actual competitors); nearly every match featuring an equally-unnecessary and often ridiculous stipulation (what the hell was that Asylum Match? ), turns for the sake of turns (i. e. Kanyon). And only a year after Owen Hart's death, did anybody really think it was a good idea to have the show's biggest spot be "Sting" (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) falling off the top of the screen in the show's biggest spot? When one of the best matches on the card - by default, since it had little interference until the end - involved Shawn Stasiak, you know you're in trouble. For us WCW fans who stuck with it to the bitter end, this was a sorry sight to behold."

[0.0] "After an almost tolerable Slamboree, Russo & Bischoff return to their preferred strategy of putting on horrible shows with zero good matches. Chavo/Disco is a bad opener, the match is all but ignored as Major Gunns strips and gives "mouth to mouth" to some old man. Riveting. Mamalukes/Kronik was actually solid, and easily the best match on the card, and it still wasn't really any good. DDP/Awesome was shaping up to be decent when the first of many asinine swerves happens. After almost being killed by Awesome a month before, Kanyon joins forces with Awesome. Stupid, and ruined the match. Booker/Stasiak also might have been ok, but once again it's overbooked to hell with Chuck Palumbo wrestling about half the match. Wall/Dougas is a "3 out of 5" Tables match, which is a great way to kill the gimmick. Wall goes through only 2 tables but somehow loses anyway. Still one of the least terrible matches on the card. The Asylum match is freakin' horrible, as expected. It's a sad day when a poor Kidman/Hogan match is far less awful than most of the card, though it's still not any good. Flair/David is a horrible hash featuring way too much Russo and Flair's young children being involved, Vampiro/Sting is infamous in it's stupidity, and then the crowning achievement, Nash beats up seven guys at once in a horrible excuse for a main event, with the cherry on top being one of the dumbest decisions in wrestling history, Goldberg turning heel. This company deserved to die."
