[8.0] "This was a really fun episode of Raw with a great storyline with the main event picture leading up to Survivor Series with the power struggle going on between Evolution and the rest of the Raw locker room. The main event is good with Evolution getting punished for Triple H deciding not to show up as they lose a handicap match. Bischoff's character change is pretty good where he's no longer booking things in Evolution's favour anymore. It's not an outright face turn, but his motivations make sense. I thought Simon Dean debut segment was hilarious, Trish was really funny when she does a video package on Lita and narrates all over it. The star of the show though with out a doubt is Edge as he is great fun to watch all show where he just shows up in Christian's match to promote his new book and then later goes on commentary instead of defending his titles and then bloodies Benoit after the match. This show just had a great flow to it and is just really entertaining overall. The only real issue is the overall match quality outside of the main event is average and Shelton vs Viscera was a bad idea."
[6.0] "Fine episode for the era. None of the matches were particularly good but none were horrible either. The idea of the night was Triple H wouldn't come to the show and Evolution got bullied, which was a solid piece of storytelling if not super thrilling. Tajiri masquerading as Triple H at the end and spitting green mist was a highlight, though the camera missed the best moment."
[8.0] "This show was basically identical to last week's, as it was more of a storyline-focused show, but the same stories from last week were dominant and the main event was a great match. Also, this was the debut of Simon Dean."
