[10.0] "This show was a beautiful tribute to Bray Wyatt, the video package in the beginning made me cry. This was the first time I ever cried over a wrestlers death, Bray was my absolute favorite growing up and hearing the news he passed away broke my heart. Bray Wyatt's passing is basically Eddie Guerrero all over again."

[7.0] "In general is a satisfactory event with some decens matches and a lot of emotional stuff into the show. It is just so high rated because of that. I dont say it doesnt breaks my heart every time I think about Bray and his departure, but this is something completely different. It was a satisfactory fareaway to a future mega-star of wrestling. [***1/2]"

[7.0] "Tribute shows are always subjective in their ratings. I am glad to see Terry Funk get his tribute too, in what was a hard week losing both him and Bray Wyatt. The tributes are touching and classy. Cody's promo and story about Funk was real and personal, and that is what you want from a tribute. Knights was charismatic about Bray, a tough day i'm sure for the man who Bray wrestled his last match against. The smokescreen and fireflies at the end was special. If this wasn't a tribute show, I am not sure anything would stand out. The "hardcore" tag match was not hardcore, but on its own a solid tornando tag. One of the best performances from Zelina but again nothing incredible. Main event didn't strike me and I expected more. Opener between Rey & Grayson was probably the best of the night. RIP Bray Wyatt & Terry Funk."

[10.0] "Just the best way to honor both Terry Funk & Bray Wyatts legacy in this one show, we had beautiful tribute packages, and great promos by Cody & LA Knight about honoring both men. All of the matches were very good too, great show all around, we miss you Bray & Terry. Thank you."

[10.0] "Thank you Bray Wyatt for everything he has done for WWE, his characters are always interesting and the storylines personally never bored me"

"Just wanted to chime in this was one of my favorite wrestling programs. Good tribute to Bray and Terry. Nice to see LAKnight get some attention. Seems like the WWE was doing it right on this one."

[10.0] "It was a very well done tribute show to two men who were universally beloved by all in the business."

[10.0] "Sometimes, its not about the wrestling. Dont get me wrong; the quality of the wrestling was great for WWEs televised matches, but that was never the focus of this show. The focus of the show was to do Terry Funk and Windham Rotunda proud, and they passed that test with flying colours. You would be a liar if you were to say it didnt make you teary-eyed at least three times that night. A special mention has to go to LA Knight, who was given such a massive responsibility in being the public face of the Bray tributes, and pulled it off flawlessly. Like the other shows that weekend, from SmackDown to Emergence to All In, the wrestling community came together as one to grieve and celebrate the two men who were trailblazers in very different ways, and WWE really do deserve their flowers for their part."

[7.0] "If this didn't feature the tributes to both Bray and Terry it would have been another average show, good, but nothing really exciting or remarkable besides LA Knight promo, one of the best of his career. I felt the Terry Funk tribute more like they did it because he died the same week as Bray, so it wouldn't look bad, because you don't see that much dedication in other tributes like Iron Sheik or Billy Graham. Cody Rhodes promo about Terry was really good and I like him better when he speaks in a simpler way instead of needlessly complicating everything and he told a really fun story about Terry. All that to make the most insulting tribute to a Hardcore legend by booking a "Hardcore" match where the only Hardcore thing in the match was a table spot (although the match itself was really good). Rey Mysterio and Grayson Waller had a very late 2000's - early 2010's kind of match, keeping it simple and just presenting some light fun to open the night after the 10 belt salute. Zelina vs Io was also good. The Main Event ended just when it looked it was starting to get interesting, and it was strange to see Finn Bálor losing clean in 10 minutes, but the match was a tribute to Bray and it had to end on a happy note before having the last tribute with the picture on the screen, the fireflies shining in the dark and the lamp in the center of the ring. A really emotional show that I hoped it never happened and we had Bray back by now. I was rooting for him to be the one to take the Intercontinental Title from Gunther and finally see his story with Uncle Howdy take off. Thanks for all the good moments, the characters, the stories and the matches you both gave us, Windham and Terry. Rest easy."

[10.0] "A great tribute show to 2 great wrestlers such as Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. A show that was done in a hurry because both deaths were unexpected less than 48 and 24 hours before the show began. WWE did well with the tributes, both tributes were emotional"

[6.0] "This was obviously a very emotional show and I got to say that all the tributes were awesome and WWE can really put on a class act when they want to. Nevertheless, the show was fine, with decent wrestling and a couple of interesting promos. Since they said the show's goal was to be entertaining in honor of Funk and Bray, I rate them for that. Decent show but there was any good match and nothing really stands out to me."

[10.0] "Hard show to grade but I have to say they did a phenomenal job with it. The tributes to both Funk and Wyatt were really good and they did them throughout the show. The matches were all still good despite having to make multiple changes on the fly. Main Event was the MOTN for me."

[6.0] "Given all the factors that go into properly honoring a sudden loss, this show was the best WWE could do. However, it was a very eclectic show that was not sure if it wanted to push next week's PLE, honor Funk, and/or honor Bray. Having seen better memorial shows in the past, this just felt like it would have been better leaving Wyatt to a cursory mention and pushing a true memorial to RAW in order to have something more in line with giving the departed their due respect. As it stands, this was kind of just a shame. Much like Rotunda's early death was a shame. Unlike the man, this show is best left forgotten."

"Not gonna add a rating to this show because it just feels very odd for me personally to try to put a numerical value on it. Of course there were things that I loved, like the opening video segment and video and the LA Knight promo, and stuff I thought could have been executed better, such as the "hardcore" match and the closing of the show (I wish they had a little more time to really send us home) but needless to say this was a very good show. And it had some enjoyable wrestling on it on top of all that, particularly the Iyo/Zelina match, where they had a very effective, entertaining, and rapid usage of 6 minutes. A very well done show on a very emotional night. Bravo."

[10.0] "Being that this is a tribute show for two recently departed wrestlers, both of which died in adjacent days to each other in one of the worst 1-2 punches to hit the wrestling/sports entertainment industry, I will not make any attempt to critique matches/angles, because that was not the point of this show. Instead, I will laud the tributes to two men who brought greatness to the wrestling industry, from Cody's speech on Terry, to the heart-tearing shots of Wyatt's rocking chair and ending with Wyatt's silhouette on the titantron (the camera work made it look like it was in the ring for a hot second). Also, the LA Knight promo (and subtle tribute to Luke Harper/Brodie Lee) was great as well."

[10.0] "I was just rewatching the 2005 show with Eddie, what a tragedy it was, it's all very sad to lose such a performer at such a young age. Eddie's last opponent was Mr. Kennedy, who never achieved anything in the century, but in the current time, L.A. Knight. That's all Bray."

[10.0] "This was a very, very well done tribute show to both of this wrestlers that marked alot of our fans lifes, specially bray wyatt for me this was sensational, the video tributes were wonderful and catched the essence the payperview was really a way to send everyone home happy, a great a perfect show."

"Very honorable tributes to both Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. Beautiful and absolutely soul crushing highlight video for Bray after the ten bell salute. Loved hearing the story Cody told in the ring about Funk and Dusty. RIP Terry Funk. Knight's promo was touching yet powerful. Lovely nod to Bray there along with the main event seeing his last opponent wrestle The Fiend's first opponent. Unforgettable moment at the close of the show with Bray's lantern in the ring. RIP Bray Wyatt. Thank you for the memories."

[8.0] "The show's beginning was so moving and emotional; having the ten-bell ring and the video made me cry so much... WWE did a great job honoring Bray Wyatt. The opener between Rey Mysterio & Grayson Waller was better than expected, but I wouldn't say I liked Austin Theory's interference. The purpose of the build-up towards WWE Payback next week is obvious, but it didn't matter to me. At least it didn't cost the match for Mysterio. The WWE Women's Championship was great but way too short. Both superstars are excellent in the ring; they have good chemistry and can show up and show out anytime. They should have gotten them more time on the show, especially with Iyo Sky's title defense not on the card for WWE Payback. The tag team match was okay, nothing special. They built it like a big thing honoring the WWE HOF Terry Funk, but it didn't feel very special to me. Having Cody Rhodes speak about Funk and introduce the match was a nice touch. LA Knight's promo was so good. It touched all the right spots: honoring Wyatt, speaking to The Miz, and the entire WWE universe. The main event was great. Finn Balor is so good; he can make anyone shine with him in the ring. They had good chemistry, with both of them showing their arsenal. It strikes me odd that they put them together just because LA Knight was the last superstar facing Wyatt, while Balor was the first to face The Fiend."

[9.0] "Considering WWE only has a day, if even that, to put this together I think they did a great job with fitting tributes to Bray and, to a lesser extent, Terry Funk. The tag match tabbed as a memorial for him wasnt quite up to par as a hardcore match, I think it would have been better served as a Texas tornado match instead. Thats really the only blemish I can pick at as the matches were all at least good. LA Knights promo and match with Finn were highlights, Knight was Brays last feud and Balor was where he debuted the Fiend. Great show overall and a nice tribute for Bray."

[10.0] "IT's a 10 because It's a tribute to both Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. Of course, with such short time they couldn't really do a whole lot and plan. I assume Monday they'll have a bit more tributes but still. With such short time they were able to get a lot of tributes out. The wrestling itself was ok, but it was a tribute show about 2 extraordinary men in the world of pro wrestling"

[7.0] "It's a very good Smackdown with very moving and successful tributes without forgetting that they were ultra respectful. But the cagematch note is abused. In content and quality, it's still a classic smackdown. Continuity of feuds with a few upsets in the card like the return of Jimmy offset."

[10.0] "It may not been the best episode in ring wise but in this show that doesn't matter, what it matters it's paying tribute to two wrestlers that had a big impact in their co-workers an if you are comparing a tribute show, that just shows what kind of person you are"

[8.0] "Great Tribute show but it shouldnt have this high grade. The Tribute to Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk was done very well, great promos by LA Knight and Cody Rhodes but matches itself were mid. Especially the tag match which didnt have nothing hardcore. Balor vs Knight is also overrated as fuck."

[10.0] "This is the only wrestling show that had me on the verge of tears. Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk were 2 of the best to do it and they'll be missed. Just seeing people like Braun Strowman, The Street Profits and Bobby Lashley on the verge of tears was heartbreaking. From a wrestling perspective this show wasn't it but it wasn't a about wrestling and this wasn't about complaining, this was about the people who died and their families."

[7.0] "I'm not going to rate any of the matches. I couldn't focus on them. Quite frankly, I didn't want to watch wrestling tonight. I didn't know him as Windham, but as a fan, I did know Bray. I watched him debut, reinvent himself, create. For all his ups and downs, he was something to talk about, and when he was at his best, one of the most exciting things in wrestling. I've been heartbroken the past few days. It's going to be difficult going forward knowing that the Bray return I expected and eagerly anticipated is not going to happen. This was a tasteful tribute. I respect that WWE didn't shove cameras into the talent's faces and have them speak while the wound is still raw. I hope his family and friends can find peace knowing he was a genuine, unique talent who was able to connect with people he never met solely through his work. I'm going to miss him."

[6.0] "The show as all is a 7/10. Everything involving Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk was obviously heartbreaking but besides that nothing else was that good, Rey Mysterio and Grayson Waller had the best match last night and the main event was weird to me, in a bad way. Having LA Knight there speaking about Bray didn't made sense, why not someone else who had a better relationship with Bray Wyatt? Going straight to making fun of The Miz was bad taste in my opinion."

[7.0] "Better than usual and the tribute segments were great. But WWE would really benefit from ditching the WWE-ness of themselves during shows like this. Drop the angles, constant branding, and just let fans and wrestlers pay respects. They come across so fake when they're using brand language to tell us about someone who just passed away."

[10.0] "What an amazing tribute show to two people who have touched and influenced the lives of so many wrestling fans like myself, the Hardcore Legend, Terry Funk, and one of if not the brightest creative mind in wrestling history, Bray Wyatt. The ten-bell salute, the amazingly produced video packages, the rocking chair at the beginning of the show, the presences of Braun and Erick Rowan, Cody's and LA Knight's amazing promos, it was all contributed beautifully to such a heartfelt and emotional night and WWE did an amazing job honoring the legends that were Terry and Windham. My only gripe is more of a nitpick, which is the Terry Funk Hardcore Tag Match being barely hardcore at all besides a table spot and Funk's famous helicopter ladder spot, but reenacted with a body instead. It's only a minor nitpick though that I blame more on Kentucky's and Fox's regulations and it doesn't change how heartfelt of a tribute it was to The Funker. But after the end of LA Knight-Balor match, when The Fiend power outage hit and the eponymous lantern that has characterized Bray Wyatt stood alone in the ring, undying, surrounded by the fireflies, I couldn't hold it in emotionally anymore. Beautiful, beautiful tribute show. RIP Funker and RIP Bray."

[7.0] "The show was better than how usually is, the last part touched me emotionally the lantern on the ring to close the episode was a very good way to say Goodbye to Bray, the Wrestling was for sure better than an avarage smackdown, the tag team match between Brawling Brutes and the Street Profits specially. Leaves Knight and Balor to close this show was the right choice, However i don't think that as far good as it was this show deserve more than a 7."

[10.0] "First of all, Thank you Bray! Best tribute show I've ever seen, everyone paying tribute in some way.King with his sash on his arm, LA Knight using Bray's line at the end of their promo. The presence of Braun and Rowan, and the production did a great job with the tribute videos. All very well done."

[10.0] "The tribute show to Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt. A special night for the two of them because they deserved to be remembered by both the promoter and the fans, it was quite emotional. The wrestling overall was pretty good and more than deserves this rating for what this SmackDown represents. May the legend Funk and the very imaginative Bray Wyatt rest in peace. It's a shame what happened and wrestling is in mourning."

[6.0] "To preface, I was completely shocked by the news of Bray Wyatt passing and I appreciate WWE for having wrestlers do promos about him, but I'm going to rate the show for what it is in wrestling terms. The wrestling was certainly better than your average Smackdown, but still not something that I would've wanted for a tribute show."

[10.0] "Great way to pay tribute to two legends. I just cried until the show finished. It still doesn't feel real that Bray Wyatt passed away. And Terry Funk is such a legend in both technical wrestling and hardcore wrestling. The videos of the two legends are made very well. Every match was fun to watch and the last match was very good. LA Knights promo was absolutely amazing. RIP Terry and Bray. And Thank You!"

[10.0] "This was a hard, but incredibly important watch to remember one of the greats of the modern era and one of the greatest of all time. I cried, but I also got to remember why I love wrestling. As Windham said, wrestling is not a love story, its a fairy tale for masochists. A comedy for people who criticize punchlines. A fantasy most can't understand, a spectacle no one can deny. Terry embodied this sport being a fairy tale for masochists and Windham embodied it being a fantasy most cant understand. Fly high you two, all the love is being sent your way."

[10.0] "Very Very good SmackDown! The matches were good, the promos were good and most importantly the tribute to Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk! I will never forget this episode of SmackDown. The main event was very cool with the Fiend's first and last opponent, you can see the emotion inside LA Knight's eyes. 10/10."

[10.0] "I really can't believe it, he was one of my favorite wrestlers when I was 13, the Shield vs Wyatt Family at Elimination Chamber left me on my ass at the time, the guru's gimmick was exceptional, I was moved for him when he snatched the Smackdown title at EC 2017, I assiduously followed everything he proposed with the Fiend despite the fact that I didn't watch WWE at all anymore, I poped at his return at Extreme Rules...damn that hurts, love you Bray."

[10.0] "What can I say? Beautiful tribute show. While the quality of promos and matches were good at least and great at best, it was all about remembering the lifes of two people who we will talk about in years to come. Rest in peace, Terry Funk and Bray Wyatt... [*]"

[10.0] "Always going to give tribute shows a 10 but this was a really good one. The 10 bell salute at the beginning featuring Rowan and Strowman. The rocking chair. The magnificent video packages for Bray and Terry Funk. The Cody promo. The LA Knight promo, harking back to Bray Wyatt's final WWE appearance before Wrestlemania when he told Lashley and Lesnar to "RUN." Touching stuff. I would've liked to see prerecorded tributes littered throughout the show but hey."

"The best thing this prayer could do for him... his lantern inside the ring may let us know that his legend is over, but it won't mean the end of his path... his legacy must continue. The show must go on. Rest in peace dear Wyatt.. Sister Abigail you will be immortalized"

[10.0] "What a tribute for Bray from beginning to the end, and a nice touch for Terry as well. I haven't felt this gutted up to a show since Eddie's passing. The way it ended, it was truly the last time the lantern was going to be turned off. I also got the vibe that LA Knight started the healing process for this, and he looked great with Finn. Very symbolic show, nevertheless."

[10.0] "Despite other people I have some issues with this show (episode should be named after Bray & Terry, because people in 10 years would not know why this show is rated so high and "hardcore" match, where only 1 weapon spot is an insult to Funk's legacy), but stricly the form of commemoration of these two guys were absolutely touching and beautiful, so eventually I will give 10."

[10.0] "As a rule, I will give tribute shows a 10 no matter what. Bray Wyatt, but especially Windham Rotunda, meant a lot to most of the current WWE locker room, and I'm sure a lot of them, either directly or indirectly, were influenced by Terry Funk. I had a worry that they were only going to honour Wyatt here, but they gave a good portion of the show to remember Funk as well. I choked up seeing Erick Rowan, who's now been on tribute shows for both of his long time partners, and it was emotional seeing Braun Strowman out there as well, who got his start with the Wyatt Family and feuded with Wyatt as well. It would have taken a lot to top the Brodie Lee tribute show that AEW did, but that was an all timer. This in its own right was a lovely touch to two men who made major contributions in different ways."

[10.0] "Catching flies in his mouth Tasting freedom while he dares Then crawling back, back to the top, top of the stairs, of the stairs He won't see the sun again for years to come He's broken out in love Like a cat without a care Roaming freely through the streets You could find him in amongst the pigeons in the square But he won't see the sun again for years to come He's broken out in love But he won't see the sun again for years to come He's broken out in love, broken out in love."

[10.0] "This show couldn't be anything else than a 10. What else could it be? Like the Brodie Lee Celebration of Life or the Hana Kimura Memorials, this is absolutely not about the wrestling. This night was about celebrating two of the greatest wrestlers of all times, and it did just that. I really, really don't think I'll ever forget seeing this show live on my computer, and breaking down in tears multiple times during it. But WWE was there to entertain, ultimately, and entertain me they did. So thanks to them, thanks to the wrestlers, and obviously, thank you, Terry and Bray."

[10.0] "A very well done tribute show given that Wwe had about a day to put it all together Very classy and respectful a tribute show that bray and Terry would be proud of. That opening 10-15 minutes are some of the most difficult and depressing minutes of a Show that Ive ever seen. Just a tragic situation The ending to the show with the fiend sound effects leading into the lantern laid down on the mat is just a beautiful touch Fantastic promos from La knight and Cody rhodes as well A tribute show both would be proud of Rip Bray Wyatt and Terry funk"

[10.0] "This was a very touching and emotional tribute show for Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk, who both tragically passed away this past week. The wrestling was secondary here but I thought all of it was pretty solid, with the WWE Women's Championship match being the standout for me. Rey Mysterio VS Grayson Waller was a fun, high-octane opening contest. The tag team match was good and the main event was decent as well. The tributes throughout the show as well as the Cody Rhodes and LA Knight promos were all great. The 10 bell salute as well as the closing moments were both very emotional. Rest in piece Bray Wyatt and Terry Funk. Still feels so surreal."
