[7.0] "A definite improvement over last week's show, but had enough filler to knock my rating down. Opening street fight was enjoyable and definitely emphasized on on the term "street fight" as there was hardly any wrestling, and more straight up fighting and bashing each other with whatever they can find. Reed vs Nese was a showcase for both men, but ultimately left little to invest in. Next match was one I was looking forward to and it was a solid and entertaining match. Could have been more but for a TV match, this was as good as it was gonna get. The six man tag had a good story behind it and the new heel stable has a lot of potential going forward, but I found myself uninterested in the match. Hoping to see more Escobar in singles action though, he's was fantastic elsewhere. Garrett definitely deserves better than to get squashed by Martinez. I'll leave it at that. Main event was, as expected, the highlight of the show. Not exactly the best match of all time but the story was there and the action was highly enjoyable. Cole's historic reign ends on a TV episode, so there's that. Solid show overall and like most past shows with the Great American Bash name, had a fine mix of hits and misses."

[7.0] "[LeRae/Yim] Straight-up weapon fight; not much genuine emotion within the match itself, despite the fact that this feud was given a build. (***1/4) [Reed/Nese] Fine match, nothing special. (***) [Gargano/Scott] Extremely disappointing. Match itself was generally uninteresting; in-ring work was loose, no storytelling, no heel work from Gargano --- no continuation on last week's confrontation between the two. Gargano's mat wrestling seg looked extremely robotic. On the upside, Swerve was decent and had some nice spots. (**3/4) [LdF/Maverick&Breezango] Decent. The focus was placed mainly on the Drake/Escobar interactions --- which, owing to the former's efforts, were largely enjoyable. Fandango was OK as the FIP; solid, focused work on his knee by the heel trio. On the downside, the Drake/Escobar final showdown seemed a tad too short, the finish too abrupt. (***1/4) [Martinez/Garrett] (NR-S) [Lee/Cole] Mostly a spotfest, kept interesting by Keith's domination. Clear MOTN. (****) I do think that last week's NXT was slightly better."

[9.0] "This was a very good night and a great way too resume this PPV the Street Fight oh yeah brings back memories of Real wrestling yeah they did have weapons under the arena and they didn't bring there own but atlest it was in Street Clothes like old ECW days of Street Fights and did kinda go into the crowd, overall it was a great match and should be on the recommendation list, Bronson's match was basically a squash match, though Gargano's match was also very good i enjoyed the close match, Tag match was okay had a few good spots i enjoyed the match, though the main event was the best match of the night and contender for match of the month / week it was an amazing match and so glad Keith picked up the W and not Adam Cole."

[7.0] "This was good, but I would like to remember people how epic were main events of such calibre in the past. A Cole v Lee match would have been a dream match, and this was good, but nowhere close to a Ciampa v Gargano, Almas v Gargano or even Cole v Ciampa, it was a classic WWE good match. The rest of the show was ok, but passable, except for the 6 men match stories were not build"

[9.0] "A very good show. Violent opener with Candice vs. Mia with good spots especially the awesome finish, if this is where their feud ends then it was a good way to blow it off. Next up Nese vs Reed, this was okay for how much time they were given though I think that the whole dark match thing is a bit dumb, this was just them trying to fill up the card, I'm all for a mini push for Reed he looked good here but as for Nese he just keeps losing and losing which isn't good considering he's supposed to be a arrogant heel. Robert Stone and Shotzi bit was surprisingly hilarious, Shotzi has the potential to be a big babyface in the future, on the other hand the Robert Stone brand needs to rack up some wins. Gargano vs Isaiah was next, this was really good, little to no build but these guys went out and showcased how good they both are. Swerve's flipping spots to avoid Garagno's offense were awesome, Swerve looks very good in defeat which is what you want to happen in a match and well we all know how good Gargano is. A vignette aired as little preview for Shirai vs Nox next week, this was really well done, Io looked badass with the underwater effect and it made you want to root for Tegan, this succesfully hyped up their upcoming match. Next up, 6 man tag, Breezango had a funny/cool entrance, this was a pretty good match, fast pace action to start the match, slowed down, then picked back up near the end. Legado del Fantasma come off as a threatening and cohesive unit and I'm really loving their look, Maverick looked well here too wanting to get his hands on Escobar throughout the entire match. Interview with Gargano and Candice, Johnny vs Balor was teased which is obviously a great match but I don't like that in the sense they're both heels. Nonetheless excited for what these two do next. Martinez vs Garrett next, this did everything it needed to do, Martinez comes off as a scary threat, they are finally using her correctly. NXT women's division is stacked. Then finally, the main event. Adam Cole vs Keith Lee in a winner take all for the NXT & North American Championships with no commercials might I add. What else do you expect from two of the best in the world, had so many good moments, both men gave it their all pulling everything out of the bag with awesome near falls and my god that panama sunrise. In the end, Lee wins, more than fine with that and am happy and excited for him. As for Cole I am very intrigued with what happens next with him. There was a really sick shot of Kross and Scarlett looking down at Keith at the closing moments of the show, I am so ready for that to happen. A very fun 2 hours with great matches and moments, thanks NXT!"

[9.0] "Very good show, of course because we're at NXT, with a good violent opener which would have deserved more time. More time needed also for the six men match. The second women's match was useless in this night. Main event was good but not what it should've been, I will forever regret that it didn't take part in front of a crowd."
