[4.0] "There are some good matches towards the end of the tournament, and the opener is a good first round match, but too much of this show is questionable booking, interference heavy and there are too many matches. Add to that the feeling that AJ Styles was only booked so Zandig could send him a resounding f*** you, and have him beat in the first round, then this certainly is not a standout BOTB"

[4.0] "The opener was exciting and daring, paying off their program well despite the unnecessary shenanigans. The second match was fun too and quite fluid, but the ending was just a tad illogical. The third match frankly lacked personality, despite the nice athletics, and was the most unmemorable of the first half. The fourth match probably stole the show with a short, explosive and fun sprint between four talented competitors. I must note here that the commentators have been awful, openly crapping on guests and making the tournament look worthless. The Battle Royal went horribly long, and the genuinely amusing moments of the beginning got drowned by dull brawling and messy overbooking. The Hatred/Gage story feels random and kinda paints Nate Hatred as a careless klutz, but the tension between partners is intriguing. Sonjay/Mark was perfectly competent, even fun, but the pointless restart only feeds Zandig's ego, and really hurts more than it helps. Blade/Acid is a fine midcard match, just average but filling its spot well. B-Boy/Cholo was just boring, another example of that terrible side of the bracket. Rave/Briscoe was quite cool and full-packed with well thought-out action, making it the most grounded match of the night. Sonjay/Acid knew it was short and thus went all out, but the interference of Homicide really cheapens the match by robbing Sonjay Dutt from a true win. B-Boy/Briscoe was terribly slow, with B-Boy relying heavily on restholds and making his finish very mundane while going into the Finals. Messiah/Gage standard brawling around the building actually felt fresher on a show like this, but the chaotic finish makes Nate Hatred look like a clumsy idiot and devalues the championship even further. The tournament Finals had two guys that the crowd liked, but to me the match felt very bland and boring. One part of the bracket made for cool and fun action, but the other parts were full of dullness and prevent the show from being anything better than decent."

[4.0] "The show was ok. The matches weren’t bad, they just weren't great. The best match was AJ Styles vs. Jason Cross vs. Jay Briscoe vs. Jimmy Rave and should of honestly gone on for longer. **3/4. Overall I wouldn’t recommend this show unless you’ve got 4 hours to kill and literally nothing else to do."

[5.0] "It's an all-rounded but not too great entry. The tournament is solid even with some short matches and deserves **1/2. Other matches outside of the tournament are a bit disappointing, the Battle Royale is a mess. Still, I believe it's an entertaining show if you like fast action. Mildly Recommended."
