[7.0] "Smackdown is on a really good track right now, the booking is clicking well with the Angle/Stephanie/HHH love triangle being by far the most interesting HHH has been since Foley dipped out, and Rock is just on fire. Really fun main event, and some good short matches here and there."

[7.0] "A solid SmackDown yet again in a run of great shows thats been happening since the Judgment Day PPV. Most of the entertainment is with the McMahon-Helmsley Regime as they get some heat back on all of their rivals at King of the Ring where they have Undertaker arrested early in the show and as well as targeting Kane and The Rock with surprise opponents, they also cause Jericho to lose and theres a very brutal spot where DX and Edge and Christian ambush the Dudleys and they share the same fate as Cactus Jack and Terry Funk two years before where they are trapped inside a dumpster and thrown off the stage! I kinda wish Jericho had not jobbed out or at the very least lost to someone better than Bull Buchanan, but they did raise the stakes with his ongoing feud with Triple H which has been going on for months now. The Rock v Kurt Angle was pretty much the final part of the ambush where the Regime as well as Benoit and Buchanan end up getting the better of the Rock and Kane. There's another Regime promo that takes awhile to get to the point, but Triple H does raise the stakes for KOTR where he divides the opponents in the main event by putting the #1 contendership on the line. Outside of that, the mid card is a little bit hit and miss with first round of KOTR finally finishing after 3 weeks and some pretty crappy New York segments where the unfunny Stooges are after Crash which was just a weird plug for a Shaft movie! Rikishi and Val Venis have another good fight and The Hardys and Lita finally become a thing when Trish Stratus cause T&A to beat them."

[8.0] "This was another really good show in probably the peak of the Chris Kreski era, as only Jericho losing to Bull Buchanan was a lowlight, while the show had solid action and built to the KOTR PPV really well."

[7.0] "This was the first wrestling show I attended live in many years, so it was therefore also the first Attitude Era show I ever attended live. I remember being surprised at how passionate and rowdy the fans were. There was a fistfight near the concession stands, there were women flashing for D-Generation X, and it had much more adult energy than the last time I attended a WWF show when Hulkamania was running wild and Hacksaw Jim Duggan was a big deal. The matches were short as WWF was still in the crash TV phase, which I didn't mind as a middle schooler with Attention Deficit Disorder. The problem with the short matches, though, is that the athletes didn't get to do as many of their cool signature spots as you would have hoped. For example, a Chris Jericho match under 2 minutes, Hardy Boyz match under 4 minutes, Edge & Christian match less than 6 minutes, and the main even of The Rock vs Kurt Angle going under 7 minutes. fun show though. 7/10."

[7.0] "This was a good show. Hardcore title stuff is boring. Main event was good with another episode ending brawl."

[7.0] "The main event scene is very interesting right now but since KOTR is on it's way the lower card is essentially just filler, with Edge & Christian segments being the only thing sticking out. Rock/Angle were having a good one before the show ended in a chaotic brawl like usual"

[6.0] "An alright episode this week. A fair bit of filler and some unfunny stuff with the Stooges and Crash in New York. The main event and everything else Rock was involved with was good as usual."
