[5.0] "A step above the very flat 'Night Of The Grudges II' since this wasn't marred by all the poor booking that we saw on that show, but this still didn't live up to ROH's track record thus far in 2005. The 'Dragon Gate Invasion' concept would be done far better on future cards, and a lot of the matches fell short of their potential. There was nothing here that I would consider 'must see' in terms of ring-work - all of the major matches were 'good', but ultimately underwhelming compared to what they could have been. There is some storyline relevance in Nigel vs. Joe as well as the beginning of the Cabana vs Homicide feud (Cabana definitely had that beatdown coming...), and I don't think any of the matches were bad, but there are so many better ROH shows to spend your time on that I'd have to consider this one to be for the diehards only."

[5.0] "Very mediocre show. The AJ/Cima and Pure Title matches are both strong but almost everything else is blah and the main event is interminably long."
