[8.0] "Major improvement compared to the last two shows. A lot of great wrestling, along with matches that felt far more purposeful than the majority of what we've seen lately. We have some new storylines building, some old storylines wrapping up nicely, and a terrific ROH Title match that marks the beginning of a new era for the promotion. Not much else that needs to be said - simply put, this is a great show, and Danielson vs. Gibson is easily one of ROH's best matches of 2005."
