[7.0] "I hesitated to rate this initially because I was not a fan of the main event, but meditating on the show I can say for certain that New Blood 8 was the return to form the sub-brand desperately needed after a string of mediocre events prior to the pay-per-view blowoff (that was, very good in it's own right). They brought in outside rookies that shined and benefited from the added spotlight, they put on acceptable matches and it is out there for 100% free. You can't really ask for more from a rookie-centric brand that's finding it's identity."

[8.0] "I feel like I just can't call this New Blood the best just because the previous one had a legendary main event, but this one was really powerful. All stories were meaningful and different from each other. New Blood continues to raise the bar."

[6.0] "A perfectly competent and enjoyable show. It was good to highlight the further development of the young talent in both experience and age."

[8.0] "The best New Blood show so far I think. Most of the matches were really enjoyable and Rina becoming the new Future champion is awesome."

[8.0] "This was a very good and enjoyable show. Every match was good in its own way, this was a good showcase for some of the future stars in the company."

[8.0] "Very enjoyable event with a title change on it and lots of other postives. Further proof that the lacklustre NB 5 was an anomaly, the shows are a great addition to Stardom's roster of events and they have lots of juice left in them. Nice to have a Stardom event without the staggeringly overexposed MIRAI on it as well."
