[7.0] "Fairly good episode of Smackdown. Foley and Jericho had a surprisingly intense short match, and the six man main event was pretty enjoyable. The Vince/HHH/Stephanie stuff doesn't really capture my interest but it's a bit amusing."

[7.0] "It was a major bummer to follow such a strong ending to Raw with Stephanie McMahon's terrible acting, but thankfully this was still a good SmackDown episode where at least for the era the match quality was consistent. The Hardys had a great showing in a fun main event match where they teamed with Big Show to beat DX, Edge and Christian vs the Dudleys is decent and the stuff with The Rock and Al Snow is also very entertaining as Snow turned heel over losing his tag team partner to him and attacks the Rock from behind in the lead in to the match, which was a pretty good sprint that was surprisingly competitive. Chris Jericho got an upset win over Mankind because of Chyna's interference backfiring so that was pretty cool as well."

[5.0] "It was a very average smackdown after a historic RAW earlier in the week. The acting by Stephanie McMahon and Test was pretty bad."

[5.0] "An average episode of Smackdown from the first year. This year in the WWF was ok once the Ministry of Darkness split up. This was the episode after Triple H "marrying" Stephanie. Tragically bad acting by Test, but the storylines with The Rock/Foley/Snow progressed."

[6.0] "As usual we got a good episode of Smackdown with a bit more focus on in ring action, it's nice to see them put more effort into other stories after only focusing on Vince and Triple H since SummerSlam"

[6.0] "A pretty decent episode this week. Much more in ring action than usual, including a good showcase match for the Hardys in the main event."
