[5.0] "The introduction and tribute to Nate Hatred was honest and touching. Kirk/Caster was boring and nondescript, and Greene/O'Hare was too with excessive obnoxious gimmicks overload. Mance/Claxton was bloody and intense, but ultimately average and unmemorable, with the multiple interference spoiling the fun quite a bit. REP/BLKOUT was very cool and a true challenge for The REP, revitalizing the tag team division with a high level athletic wrestling program. Shook/Massage bored me terribly, having practically no redeeming quality and feeling like a painful waste of time. Rickey/Gacy was slow but had a clean structure, where Joe Gacy played the bully well and Rickey showed resilience before gaining his passport for the Finals. The Wired TV 4-Way was decent, but also way too short and abrupt to mean anything, making the title change look very mundane. Silver/Reynolds is a fun main event, using the ladder to fulfill their grudge and propulses John silver into the main event status he deserves. The main event delivered like it should, the tag team match was extremely exciting and the tournament semifinals were very honest efforts, but everything else in the night was lacking, feeling forced, mediocre and underwhelming, making for an overall average event salvaged by a few very outstanding performances."

[7.0] "Really good event from CZW. The stuff with the Office and MJF? s people really made the show enjoyable. The Shook Crew are growing on me, which is a good thing since I didn? t find them interesting at first. The tag title change was a nice surprise but perhaps the most shocking was the Wired title match. It? s good to see that belt defended again and while I would have liked Austin to have a longer run, Blackwater winning came out of nowhere. One of the better matches on this show. Claxton vs Warner was another great match, and the main event was great with the right person winning. This show gets an extra point for the opening Hall of Fame segment. A heartfelt segment that was a great way to open the show. I had high expectations for RSP vs Gacy but that match was a little underwhelming. All in all, an enjoyable CZW event."
