[8.0] "Another fun and enjoying show displayed by DPW. In my opinion, they would have benefited, at this time, to do shorter shows. Therefore, some bouts would have also benefited to be shorter, and, so, more effective, by the way. Kudos to The NDA vs. Waves and Curls which surprised me a lot (in the good way). Violence Is Forever vs.The WorkHorsemen was clearly the showstealer, while BoJack vs. Jay Malachi was certainly a banger of a main-event. Superb showcase once again for every worker involved."
[4.0] "DPW really went hard on the sort of indy-style matches that I really don't like with this show, even the Joshi match had it for some of it, which nulled the attraction of the Joshi's. Lots more new talent and random title matches with no previous builds, I do like that DPW are now having video packages for some matches, but the title matches weren't included. WorkHorsemen/Violence Is Forever probably was MOTN, but I could tell what the finish was going to be, as the clues were there all show, and I thought all of them sold the aftermath of such a grueling match pretty poorly. BoJack/Malachi had moments of drama, but way too many false finishes. Really thought the crowd were trying to get themselves over way too much throughout the show, the likes of which I've never seen before in DPW or anywhere else for that matter. Sad to report, but this is the first DPW show that left me wholly dissatisfied."
[7.0] "A good show. It could have been very good with a better first half of the show - which I found rather bland - and with a better B-Boy vs Lucky Ali, but it was still good, especially the last three matches which were great."
[8.0] "DPW Victory Lap war der bisher beste PPV den ich von DEADLOCK gesehen habe. Das beste Match des Abends war das Tag Team Match zw. den WorkHorsemen und Violence Is Forever, die zu einem Time Limit Draw in einem starken Match kamen. Der Opener und das 8-Man Tag Team Match waren wirklich gute Matches und auch Jungle Kyona vs. Maya Yukihi und der Main Event waren gute Matches."
[8.0] "Another really good DPW event, didn't expect it to be bad because they never are however wasn't like the best one or anything but clearly it wasn't trying to be. Very excited to see where it goes next. Favorite matches were the main event and WorkHorsemen vs Violence is Forever."
[9.0] "Deadlock hat einen Lauf was gute Shows betrifft. Victory Lap war womöglich sogar die bisher beste DPW Show die ich sah, da hier einfach durchgehend gute Action und auch interessantes Storytelling geboten wurde. Die Tag Team und Multi Men/Women Matches gefielen mir am besten. Ich hatte jede Menge Spaß mit der Show. Sehr empfehlenswert."
[10.0] "Great show, I got enjoyment from every match. The 8-person tag, VIF vs. Workhorsemen, and the main event were my favorite matches. While it didn't top Believe The Hype, it was still a very enjoyable show, looking forward to the Carolina Classic."
