[7.0] "Eine der schwächeren PWG Shows der letzten Jahre. Schwach heißt bei PWG aber natürlich immer noch auf einem relativ guten Niveau. Brody King ist ein Highlight und die Niederlage ist echt schade. Trotzdem ein gelungenes Debut für den Riesen und ich freue mich auf mehr. Castle gegen Janela lebt zu Beginn von den ganzen Unfug den beide miteinander treiben. Geht allerdings viel zu lang. Das ganze 10 Minuten kürzer wäre sicherlich spaßig gewesen. Banks gegen Starr ist dann auch irgendwie recht träge. Banks kommt nicht wirklich bei der Crowd an und auch Starr hat heute nur so halbwegs Bock. Sabre braucht dann viel zu lange für Gordon. Während ZSJ seinen ganzen Moveapparat runterspult und das Ganze bei ihm ja auch Sinn macht ist Gordon das Gegenteil. Hier nen Move, da nen Move aber alles nichts was man nicht auch von anderen Leuten sehen kann und was so gar keinen Mehrwert hat. Dafür folgt dann das MOTN. Lee und Riddle haben richtig Bock und das merkt man dann auch sofort. Die schenken sich nichts. Lee wirft Riddle durch die Gegend, der kontert mit seinem MMA Stil. Das ist typisch PWG. Schnell, gut und voller Action. Tolles Match der beiden. Der Main Event ist mir dann auch 5 Minuten zu lang. Aber das ganze weiß zu gefallen. Ein paar nette Storyelemente dabei. Taylor nutzt sogar unfaire Aktionen. Solides Match. Nicht mehr, nicht weniger. Runder Abschluß einer OK Show."

[7.0] "Im Opener feiert Brody King ein umjubeltes Debüt. Die Action sitzt und ist recht spotlastig auf dessen Extravaganz ausgelegt. Adam Brooks macht da sein Ding und in Summe ist das ein passender Opener mit einem schon etwas überraschenden Sieger. Caslte und Janela könnte mit weniger Zeit sicherlich ein wunderbares Match hinlegen. Jedes Mal, wenn die Action kompakter wird, folgt eine Sequenz, die das Tempo rausnimmt oder einfach nur entbehrlich ist. Zu langatmig und dafür zu dünn in Summe. Starr und Banks haben weniger als die Hälfte Zeit und sprinten sich zu einem ordentlichen Match. Netter Schlagabtausch und ein passendes Hin und Her. Gordon beweist leider erneut, dass er nicht mit allen Matchstories klikt und so versucht ZSJ es auf ein rundes Niveau zu bringen, aber Flip kombiniert willkürlich seine Moves. Action ist ja okay, aber man verpasst eine Chance. Wiederum genau diese nutzen Lee und Riddle. Irrsinniges Match, kurzer Overkill an No-Sell-Sequenzen, aber die Steigerung des Tempos und der Intensität passt ziemlich gut dazu. MOTN und sicherlich ein Top-Match aus 2018 für PWG. Das Main Event nervt mich leider. Die Story hat Daily Soap-Niveau. Die Action nur interessant, wenn es gerade mal den nächsten Twist in der Beziehung zwischen den Beiden gibt. Sicherlich sitzen einige Spots und Sequenzen, aber in Summe ist das fast anstrengend, was die Herren da bieten. Wäre Castle/Janela nicht so lang, würde ich hier das schwächste Match des Events sehen. Unwürdig und so ist der Event in Summe ordentlich, aber mit so einem Main Event halt auch nicht gut im Sinne von gut."

[7.0] "Some good stuff here - a great match between Lee and Riddle; ZSJ vs Flip saw the clash of style play into the story of the match pretty well, with ZSJ trying to keep Flip grounded; Banks vs Starr had good action and intensity, and Brooks vs King was a solid opener. Elsewhere, the main saw mainly good action, though the idea of the Best Friends fighting each other didn't seem to sit entirely well and the finish especially fell flat, and while Dalton was great as always, he and Janela didn't really seem to click and their match lasted a bit too long. Overall a decent watch."

[8.0] "I thought this show was very enjoyable. I liked the fact that Brody King got a showcase match on the card and I also enjoyed Flip Gordon's debut against ZSJ. I thought the Keith Lee v. Matt Riddle match was the best of the night. The only con to this show was that the main event seemed to be missing something. All in all, however, good show!"

[7.0] "Brooks/Brody was a very fun highspot filled match *** - Janela/Castle was atrocious, easily the worst PWG match I've seen. * - Banks/Starr was really good, fun match did feel like it was missing something though *** - Flip/ZSJ was absolutely brilliant, they worked the styles clash tremendously, Both wrestlers put in a hell of a performance. **** - Lee/Riddle was bloody great, Nitpick being it was the "one too many" version of Riddle but granted the match was insane so not bothered **** 1/4 - Chuckie T/Trent didn't live up to expectations tbh, Chuck murdered Trent legitimately, dragged a tad but a good match *** 1/4. Overall easy to watch show If you skip the Joey Janela match a solid show with 2 Great matches."

[5.0] "Brooks/Brody had some good stuff w/ Brody playing the bigger guy, but then it sadly drifted into the usual indy 50/50 movezfest (**), Castle/Janela had some amusing banter between the 2, but other than that it wasn't any interesting (*), Starr/Banks had some good stuff, went a bit too long by the end, but yeah, a pretty good match all in all (**3/4), ZSJ/Flip was a complete ZSJ show; Flip dragged the match down w/ his shitty offense, but Zack was tremendous grounding him (***), Keith/Riddle went a bit too much into the overkill territory by the end, but it was still a very enjoyable, good match - far from the best that the 2 have had against each other, though (***1/4), Trent/Chuckie was the clear MOTN in my eyes; good storytelling, good pacing & Trent's selling/bumping is awesome (***1/2). Overall an OK show, nothing must see, but only one match I'd call bad, too."

[7.0] "Brody vs Brooks was very fun. Crowd was super into Brody being the home town boy and all, *** 1/2. Castle vs Janela was a drag to get through. Unless Joey is in a smoke and mirrors match or against Lio Rush its hard for me to be into him, ** 3/4. Banks vs Starr was a fantastic sprint. A major up from Starr's last pwg performance, ****. ZSJ vs Flip wasn't as good as I hoped it would be but it was still a solid match. Flip made ZSJ look like the devil and constantly pissed him off this match, *** 1/2. Biggest Keith vs Riddle was one of the best matches in North America this year. If not for the iffy near fall towards the end and the stain that is some of Riddle's no sell spots, this would be in my top ten of the year overall, **** 3/4. Big Dust vs Greg was alright at best. Nothing special but the ending was so annoying. Rather not spoil it but boy howdy nobody is happy about it and it keeps up with one of PWG's booking issues these last few years, ***. To me it was a fun little show with nothing being too bad. I know some people love Janela's shtick but only the main event was a real miss."

[7.0] "Schon ein guter PWG Event und man war Keith Lee vs Matt großartig das hat mir am besten gefallen wie Keith da Matt ne Bodycheck verpasste und Matt da fast aus dem Ring flog (****). Flip bitte wieder booken kam gut an und war ein gutes Ding gegen Zack (***1/2). Main Event hatten einen Holy Shit Moment als Trent so stark blutete irgendwie auch ein Match ohne NQ (***1/4). Schwächer als Mystery Vortex V aber trotzdem gute PWG Unterhaltung, 7 Punkte einer der schwächeren PWG Events der Neuzeit."

[7.0] "Opener was pretty good at best. Brody king showed a lot of impression. Castle/Janela went too long and nothing exciting happened. I am tired of Janela's lame comedy shtick. Banks/Starr was really good and Starr was much better than he was at last pwg show. ZSJ/Gordon was a very good match. Zack again countered everything from his opponent and forced to tap out. Flip was pretty good here. Lee/Riddle without a doubt was MOTN and early MOTYC for pwg. Just insane back and forth action from the start to the finish with off the chart moments. ME was another huge disappointment. I had high expectation for these 2 but they failed to deliver here. Meh action, meh crowd reaction and very flat finish. Why chuck cheated on his best friend ? I don't know. Overall this was slightly better than the last show but only zack/gordon and lee/riddle were must watch."

[7.0] "Brooks vs King *** 1/2, Castle vs Janela ***, Banks vs Starr, *** 1/4, Sabre vs Gordon *** 1/2, Lee vs Riddle **** 1/2 und Taylor vs TRENT *** 3/4. Eine relativ schwache Show für PWG Verhältnisse. Lee vs Riddle war Wrestlerisch das MOTN, während Taylor und TRENT einen größeren Story Hintergrund hatten. Die Undercard war ziemlich schwach. Castle vs Janela war einfach viel zu lange, Banks und Starr klickte nicht so ganz und hätte gerne ein paar Minuten vom vorherigen Match kriegen können und der Opener war gut."

[7.0] "Pretty much a one match show, but still fun stuff from start to finish. I really liked the opener as Brooks seems much more comfortable, and Brody has great potential, ***3/4. Joey fucking around for half the match felt like a waste of having Dalton Castle on the show, ***1/4. Banks vs Starr was a total sprint with some awkward heel work from Starr, ***3/4. Flip made a pretty good debut in PWG against Zack, and I hope he comes back eventually, ***3/4. Riddle vs Lee was fucking insane, their best match to date, ****3/4. Main event was highly disappointing as it was just piledriver spam at a slow pace, ***."
