[4.0] "Honestly, this one's a headscratcher. I love PROGRESS but if you're gonna have a themed show that seems to be entirely outside of canon with the rest of your product then don't half arse it. The Natural Progression and Thunderbastard Tag Team Series matches could've been saved for the next Chapter show (which has plenty of space for them) and they could've really gone the whole hog with this show and dropped everyone's character - instead I'm supposed to buy that Mark Haskins, Jimmy Havoc and the Grizzled Young Veterans are willing to play silly buggers on a daft one shot show that does nothing for any of them in the long run. Jimmy Barnett had it right; I imagine Jim Cornette is spinning in his grave - and he isn't even dead yet! Overall, it's not really a bad show, I just couldn't buy into the concept while being told to accept that certain modern day stories are still running. Jimmy Havoc and Jack Sexsmith wouldn't have that match in current continuity. The South Pacific Power Trip wouldn't be The Bushwhackers in current continuity. Mark and Vicky Haskins wouldn't play dress up in current continuity... so stop telling me that this is in current continuity and pull all the references to the actual product you regularly present and just have fun on this show. Totally skippable and mostly pointless."

[6.0] "PROGRESS Wrestling Chapter 70 was a fantastic show from this young promotion in London. The wait to get this tape from my good friend was worth it as the future of pro wrestling seems bright. The Electric Ballroom is a nice venue for the graps, and I would recommend this show to anyone who can get a copy of this tape. As is always, I wish you peace, love, and good professional wrestling."
