[7.0] "Rev Pro's interpromotional relationships allow for matches, in a world-class intimate venue, that no other company can currently put on. The ROH TV champ vs. the IWGP Jr champion, are you kidding me? ! T/out Simmonz does a good job of tempering the other Andy's rah-rah huckster character. Perhaps what was missing from the Guv'nor's gimmick were a lack of acolyes. Solid opener as Banks & Sami are high-quality spot sprinters, and having often recently worked together, make this flow. TB & a partner against OI4K, please. The next battle, dudes who look like third cousins, was predictably lacking personality. Despite not possessing a skillset that sets him apart, J White may be fine if he got some mic time and character development -> sorely lacking. Angelico seems at the same, or lower level, than 18 months ago. Zack G is a heat monster; the match was anonymous though b/c Zack isn't polished enough to bring Goto out of his bland workmanlike routine. For me, Goto is like a British Bulldog, he migrates to where his opposition lays. I rag on Scurll but do think he's awfully good. But I get hung up on the small things, and he typically extends his schtick a couple seconds past the due date. Here it wasn't overdone, A more manly haircut, and he took the end from a crazy dude like Hiromu, like a champ. Solid 3 1/2. Ospreay should really take a break; Rico did on this weekend. Anyway, outside of the interference I really liked Bodom's victory over Will. WO had his moments, his 450 springboard was awesome tonight, but his back... , 3 2/3. Rev Pro misread the crowd on the Sha/Castle silliness as the crowd wanted to like Sha, but the post-match cutting confused them into not knowing how to feel. ZSJ still doesn't get or want to get that he's a heel who cheated to win back his title. He also overly dominates the match thus not elevating his challenger. The Elite came off like Big stars and this was their showcase but just a 3 1/3. Of the three, the Brit was not pinned"
[8.0] "White/Angelico: ***1/4. The battle of the bad haircuts. Angelico felt like he was sleepwalking through most of this match. By midway through it was alright, and by the end it was good. Goto/Gibson: ***1/4. Guys would kill to have the heat that Gibson has. Match was good, but a bit boring. Hiromu/Scurll: ***3/4. Very very good match between 2 heels and 2 champions. Hope to see it again. Ospreay/Bodom: ****. Great Heel work by Bodom, who is one of the more underrated guys in the UK. Great GREAT selling by Ospreay, who's selling of the back made the match great, though both competitors were great. ZSJ/KUSHIDA: ****1/4. Technically worked greatly. Crowd hurt a little i think. Still fantastic. Great show."
[8.0] "My first full RevPro event that I've watched in full detail and I was quite impressed by it to be honest. CCK vs Stone & Callihan was real good (***1/2), White/Angelico was meh (*), Goto/Gibson wasn't much better (*1/2), Hiromu/Scurll started off good but then faded until the ending stretch (**1/4), Bodom/Ospreay was GREAT and completely blew away any thoughts I had coming into this matchup (****), ZSJ/KUSHIDA was an absolute BANGER and I freaking loved how technical it was and ZSJ delivered a tremendous performance and the selling was outstanding (****3/4), Samuels/Castle was there (*), and the Main Event was real good (***1/2). Overall a tremendous show and one that is worth watching for Bodom/Ospreay & KUSHIDA/ZSJ alone."
[8.0] "I was mildly annoyed with how quiet the crowd was for the undercard. CCK vs Stone & Sami was a really nice opening sprint, but the comedy went a tad long (***1/2). White vs Angelico started like a very average contest but got hot in the final minutes (***1/4). Gibson vs Goto was paced like a NJPW match in front of a crowd that didn't click with it, although it was performed well with some brawling and some technical offense; what I really loved was how Goto saved a slip-up at one point to make it feel natural, and how he used the Sleeper to set up the GTR as a nod to the injured Shibata (***1/4). Hiromu vs Scurll started HOT and ended HOT, but I feel as though they dragged out too much in the middle; Scurll is a good heel but sometimes when working on top he stalls too much, and that likely prevented a quite good match from being greater than that (***1/4 to ***1/2). Bodom vs Ospreay started great, with Bodom just blasting Ospreay in so many ways that targeted his back, and even during his comeback Will's selling really impressed me, while Bodom's selling of the worked leg was strong; the intensity and hatred in this was palpable and both guys were just wrecked by one another, and the Gibson interference made storyline while leading to a REALLY slick finish (****1/4). Samuels vs Castle was a match, Sha did a moonsault that was cool (**1/2). SZKG ZSJ vs KUSH was paced out to ~30 minutes and didn't really feel like it dragged most of that time; the technical work had a ton of variety and the selling was pretty good... but this never really hit that next level to me; a MUCH better long match than ZSJ/Scurll but never truly escalated for any significant time (***3/4). Trios match was meant to be fun, and it was fun, fun stuff; semi-comedic spotfest that had a bunch of fun sequences and actually got the crowd going; Kenny was on fire the whole match and the final stretch was legitimately great stuff (***3/4). A VERY nice show from RevPro with a crazy variety of talent"
[7.0] "CCK vs. Stone & Callihan was a very strong opener - really good action from start to finish (***1/2), the next 2 matches in Angelico/White & Goto/Gibson were very uneventful (*), Hiromu/Scurll started off good, but it was all downhill from there - very boring match (*1/2), Bodom/Ospreay was great, Ospreay gave one of his best performances to date (****), Castle/Samuels was 'a match' (*), ZSJ/KUSHIDA delivered a classic - one of the best matches of both men's careers, easy MOTN (****3/4) & the main event was a lot of fun with everybody looking impressive & The Elite giving a good effort (***3/4). There were 4 very meh matches, but then there were 4 really awesome matches (with one of them being an absolute classic). Good show!"
[10.0] "CCK vs. Callihan/Stone - ***3/4 Angelico vs. White - *** Gibson vs. Goto - ***1/4 Hiromu vs. Scurll - **** Bodom vs. Ospreay - ****1/2 Castle vs. Sha - **3/4 ZSJ vs. KUSHIDA - ****1/4 Elite vs. Rush/Smile/Strickland - ****1/4 Incredible show, my favourite ever I've been to live. Lots of high quality matches with nothing bad at all. Some very different styles on show all night aswell with the top three matches being completely different. Crowd was molten hot all night and the atmosphere was incredible. Definitely recommend everyone watches this show."
