[6.0] "I don't think this was a particularly bad show. Opens with a solid hc match, Road Dogg looking damn solid as the HC champ. There's the stupid Mark Henry/Chyna thing continuing, an absolutely AWFUL handicap match with two old men groping a woman and old man Severn looking like an old man. I still think it's a decent buildup to the PPV, especially the ending."

[6.0] "This was the weakest Raw in quite awhile for me. It's not a bad show is it keeps the main storylines going on for the Royal Rumble well enough, but the bad storylines was starting to stick out more as this one had the infamously dated 'Sami is a man' twist and also had a horrendous comedy handicap match where Chyna beats the Stooges and isn't exactly put over as a strong threat like she should have been! Still this did have a solid Road Dogg vs Gangrel match and despite the bad finish Mankind vs Bossman was also decent. Shamrock going crazy and beating the hell out of Billy Gunn was also very memorable. The main event has a fun reference where Kane refuses to lose to The Rock by 'Fingerpoke of Doom'. The match doesn't last long, but it does garner some sympathy for Kane as he is constantly mistreated by the Corporation."

[6.0] "Alright show with some decent moments. The opening hardcore match was good, Mankind and Bossman was as well. Taker cuts another Ministry of Darkness promo. Main event was a solid match, and the ending with Mankind running in with a chair, sending Rock to the ramp only for Austin to attack him was cool"

[6.0] "That kind of an episode when there is no reason to watch it because nothing really important happens. Howewer I wasn't bored. We have another cool Ministry promo from the Undertaker. Mr McMahon vignette is again very entertaining. Hardcore matches are alright. Main vent is acceptable but it still doesn't develop storyline. Unfortunately this show has no Stone Cold or Triple H except short opening promo. Episode also features infamous segment with Mark Henry."

[7.0] "As a whole the show really worked. Nothing really stood out but it set up the PPV and kept all the feuds going. The matches were not bad and the vignettes were solid too. The only downpart was the Undertaker in one of the worst angles in quite some time."
