[5.0] "An episode a little less good than the previous one, notably due to the fact that a lot of games lasted less than 5 minutes, so it was not easy to give my opinion. The positive points: the debuts of Karrion Kross and Scarlett, the match between Dominik Dijakovic and Johnny Gargano (the best match of this episode), and the Main Event, although a bit short. The negative points: the match between Charlotte Flair and Io Shirai which was useless, and the fact that more than half of the matches lasted less than 5 minutes. Score of the show: 5, 66/10"

[4.0] "Charlotte/Shirai and Cole/Dream were immensely disappointing. These are high profile matches, yet they gave them both less time than the opener? Neither had a chance to get going. Should have been a great NXT card but strange booking made it fall well short of expectations."

"Hi everyone. This is my first post on this site. Great site, amazing information. Thx When I first realized that NXT was going to be doing a Io Sharia/Charlotte Flair program, I have to admit I quickly got a very bad feeling. When I think of Flair vs. Sharai, I personally think this is a Summerslam, high on the card type of match. These two ladies are both incredible in their own ways, and seeing them lock up in a high card PPV match in front of an audience was something I have thought about for a very long time. The thought of them having a feud during the days of empty arenas just didn't seem necessary. Regardless, being a NXT fan, I had faith, and looked the other way, hoping for at least something awesome out of them in an empty Performance Center. Sadly, it was much worse than I thought. Whoever put together that entire Flair/Io build up, match itself, and the mess that happened afterwards, should really feel awful. This was bad, really bad. I have been watching low card performers really get minutes in the ring on television lately, but for some reason Io and Flair were given 7 minutes, with a DQ finish. This was a slap in the face to anyone who wanted to see these girls really open up in a solid match. Will they fight again? Of course, but this has left such a bad taste in my mouth in terms of NXT's current product. I don't care what the long term plans are for a Flair/Io rematch, the NXT team really screwed this one up."

[4.0] "A perfect example of why Cagematch needs to regulate the 10 grades from NXT fanboys, no way ever does this show get anything above a 6 from unbiased reviewers. Gargano vs DD was a typical NXT opening match, it goes too long and has one long-term sell to cover up for the continual no-sells for the rest of the match. It was poor for two people who are so capable of so much better. Both Cruiserweight matches were worthy of house shows and Tozawa's no contact senton to win was embarrassing. 3 matches were poor squashes, with Kross's entrance the only interesting moment. Charlotte continues her good form, but the DQ finish made no sense as the champion was well in control and had not been troubled at all. The screaming scenes with Shirai and Ripley was not good TV. The main event was poor. Dream got the phantom 3-count after doing his diving elbow, but why was Cole down and out for so long when there was no previous attack? And then Cole turns him over in an instant! Rubbish. Overall, this was a typical NXT from the "development" era, so many errors and matches marred with poor selling and indie-style booking. Please, please can we insist on 10 grades being validated with comments? Every week NXT fanboys get in early with the 10s before the algorithm is activated and the ratings are ruined."

[4.0] "I didn't like this episode. There were two very important matches on the card, but they were done horribly. I like only the Tozawa's victory. Good debut by Karrion Kross."

[4.0] "The most dissapointed I've felt coming out of a NXT in a while to be completely honest. Gargano/Dijakovic was alright but the rest of the show was jam packed with absolute nothing matches, 5 matches went under 4 minutes. After building up Io/Charlotte, you have it as a DQ after 7 minutes. Cole/Dream wasn't good but I can understand why they did the finish they went for due to the current situation with Dream. Poor show this week."

[10.0] "One of the best NXT's i have seen, great too see Gargano in his new gimmick the opener was a great match both wrestlers were giving it there all, Dominik had the power over Gargano and showed early on how easy it was too dominate a wrestler, but Gargano came back, and even took away the turnbuckle pad, he used illegal moves too win but it was still an amazing match ***** Io Shari and Flair match was also amazing, Io kept pushing the Queen and should of won the title but sadly Flair grabbed a Kendo stick hey Flair this isn't ECW it's NXT, i hope Flair vs Ripley vs Io becomes a match i would love too see a triple threat match between all three of them as i can see tentions are heating up between all three wrestlers ***** the rest of the matches were avrege i enjoyed the crusirweight matchs glad Akira and Kushida won there 2 matches, and Dream got robbed by the UE, it was a great match but what the hell was Lumis doing under the arena? ****1/2 for Cole vs Dream. Overall i give this episode a 10/10 due too having amazing matches i can't wait for next week."

[5.0] "Johnny Gargano vs Dominik Dijakovic opened the show. I like Gargano's new theme , it's catchy. The match was really great. I wouldn't mind a rematch on a Takeover. The Cruiserweight matches didn't even go a combined 20 minutes this week. WWE clearly doesn't give a shit about the tournament. Xia Li got beat again. The match with Chelsea Green was pretty bad , I'm sorry and I'm a fan of both women. So I'm guessing Aliyah is gonna be with Robbie E. Karrion Kross made his long awaited NXT in ring debut. This segment was the best thing on the show outside of Gargano vs Dijakovic and Charlotte vs Io was decent. Charlotte vs Io was a decent match. I didn't like the DQ finish but I'm just glad Io didn't lose clean to Charlotte. Rhea Ripley made her return and confronted Charlotte after the match. I smell a 3 way for the NXT Women's Championship coming soon. Both Cruiserweight matches deserved more time. Cameron Grimes beat a jobber then ran his mouth ripping Finn Balor. Balor came out and kicked his ass. Adam Cole defending the NXT Championship against Velveteen Dream closed the show. This was ok. I figured they wouldn't put the NXT Championship on Dream after the controversy last week. Dexter Lumis in the main story of NXT is very unpredictable. So I would assume either Balor or Keith Lee is next for Cole and the NXT Championship."
