[0.0] "2025 as a whole was a pretty uneven year for WWE but this was the ultimate fall. You have a PPV with WarGames matches and somehow, nothing on here is above 2.5 stars. Just bad lazy matches with lots of ads and no one was putting in any effort. This really exposed how bad the product was at this time"

[5.0] "It was the first and so far, only live event I've ever attended. It was a childhood dream of mine, and the setting seemed perfect: a massive stadium hosting cage matches something different from the norm. Looking at the roster, it was arguably the strongest WarGames lineup ever assembled. But what actually happened? The women's match was boring, lacking any daring moves or standout individual performances. The championship matches were dull, too and don't get me started on the crowd; out of my entire row, I was the only one making noise, clapping, and chanting the wrestlers' names. The main event was just... nothing special. I mean, you have a competitor willing to do unconventional things to leave the audience amazed, yet you just stick to the same silly segments you'd run at a non-televised house show. I left feeling deeply disappointed. Sure, the roster was stacked, but none of them really delivered a standout performance in their matches. The only real highlight was getting to see Cena live for the first and last time. Aside from that, it's honestly something you'd want to think twice about unless, of course, you just have money to burn."

[4.0] "This PPV/PLE was not my cup of tea looking back. The matches didn't exactly feel the best, but a lot was left to be desired personally. Both War Games matches even prior to the event had somewhat of a lackluster build that felt like it was thrown together last minute due to key people either being injured or being unsure how to fully pivot into a proper developed War Games story like years past. As for the other two matches on the card, Cena vs Dominik felt like a slogfest of interference after interference from the Judgement Day, while Nikki Bella vs Stephanie Vaquer just didn't click due to the lack of chemistry between the two. Although the card was solid as is, it underdelivered in my opinion due to lack of build, or due to the overreliance on spots that made no sense or hurt the vibe of the show as a whole. (** 1/4)"

[7.0] "It was a good show, nothing to write home about, maybe even the worst in the last three or four years, but still, very much above average. This having less than a 5 is a reflection on WWE's product because this show wasn't that bad."

[3.0] "4/10. A pretty inconsequential SS in my eyes that left more questions than answers. Mostly unmemorable womens' matches minus like one or two moments. The Cena vs Dom match was kinda hampered by the injury fakeout and the Liv return (glad to see her back, kinda wonder what's gonna happen to the JD). Men's WG was MOTN (even with the dumb YEET intermission), dunno what's the deal with the mystery man, but nice to see Bron getting the pin. I'm not gonna say they should take a break from WarGames, but they should treat it like HIAC where they bring it out when its most needed like maybe a Bad Blood or something. Also, JFC the downtime between matches coupled with the ESPN adbreaks, surely they could've found room for one more match? Plus could they've at least got a face to do the Xfinity bit? EDIT: I say 3 because of how the last act of the show kinda lead nowhere. The Masked Man at the end ended up being Theory (revealed on a random RAW) which isn't megapop material, Breakker didn't even get the WHC in the match he got after his pinning of Punk, and Cody vs Roman was obviously teased but was blatantly scrapped. Also honorable mention to Dom basically being totally absent for most of his reign (I know its injury related but they coulda handled it better). I get wanting to tease things at the end of shows because it gives people something to talk about and a reason to keep tuning in, but if the payoff isn't exactly spectacular, it kinda makes it a waste of time."

[6.0] "Survivor Series 2025 - WarGames was solid/good show for me both War Games matches good to enjoyable, the Mysterio vs. Cena was a very fun sports entertainment match with Cena giving the spotlight to Judgement Day, especially Dom Mysterio and Liv Morgan. Vaquer vs. Bella okay/solid. I did like the young wrestlers getting the spotlight as well in specifically Lash Legend, Bron Breakker, Stephanie Vaquer, & Dom Mysterio."

[1.0] "Everything on this show had so much potential to be good with the amount of star power and stories going into it, and massive attendance for it, but just about everything falls off below what it could've been. Cena Vs Dom was decent with Liv's surprise return, but was too overbooked and not the best for Cena's last ever PPV/PLE match, Vaquer Vs Bella was bad, and both wargames matches were just as bad. Overall WWE Survivor Series (2025) is a really horrible show where everything here just feels like noise."

[0.0] "I was in attendance for this show and if I said that myself and many other people in attendance were furious after the show ended, that would be an understatement. 45, 000 people payed a crap ton of money for a stadium show just for us to get 4 matches. I've been to several wrestling shows and they're always fun in person. This was the first time where it wasn't. I didn't enjoy the women's war games, almost ZERO weapons were used and the match was played so safe. Everyone expect for Iyo Sky looked like they were afraid to even get a bruise. It wasn't bad in ring wise but when you're in a match called "War Games' you'd expect some crazy spots and violence, which only one spot actually lived up to the name "War Games". John Cena vs Dominik was an overbooked mess which reminded me of the way AJ Styles left TNA. It's really a shame WWE wasted 3 of Cena's final 4 dates on this man. I didn't care for Stephanie vs Nikki. We had ZERO build to it and my excitement of seeing Nikki Bella in this big of a match n 2025 isn't exactly high. It was boring and it felt like all they tried to do was Stephanie hitting the devils kiss which sums up her main roster run. The main event was going pretty good until we got the usual WWE bullshit. A hooded man interferes and a big 4 PLE ends in a...cliffhanger? I want a refund."

[6.0] "Women's wargames match was mid to ass, the men's match was alright. I enjoyed the Cena vs Dominik match and the Women's World Title match was ass, nothing special but Nikki wrestled her best match since coming back"

[1.0] "This is one of the worst shows I've ever watched, every match was terrible or mediocre ad the crowd couldn't be any more silent. Easily the worst PPV of the Year. WWE has been really bad this year, hopefully it picks up."

[4.0] "0 Highlights on this show outside of Liv Morgan returning, Cena Dominik was average, both wargames matches felt slow and dull despite the names involved, really feel like the format needs to be reviewed because these matches are all blending into 1, Nikki Bella was not on it at all and fumbled her way through a title match with Vaquer. Men's match was the better of the two but still so basic."

[6.0] "I had 0 expectations so I guess I was surprisingly satisfied with the show. The IC title match was pretty good and I love that Liv is back. The woman's War Games was fie and the men's was pretty satisfactory."

[5.0] "Bottom 3 show of the year with MITB and Wrestlepalooza, this card was way too short and the war games matches didn't hit like crazy (second year in a row the women's one didn't), Steph and washed Nikki Bella wasn't good, Cena and Dom was fun enough but a downgrade from Raw, the men's war games was the best match but it wasn't great at all."

[3.0] "The women's WarGames felt a lot like it was just going through the motions without a whole lot of heat behind the action, and even the big high spot that it was building up for - Iyo jumping off the top with the trash can - was just the same high spot we've seen her do in at least three previous WarGames matches. The men's WarGames was a bit better; the action felt a little more inspired and organic, but ended with a rather lame Black Scorpion-esque masked-man angle. In between, Vaquer struggled to drag a good match out of Nikki Bella; Cena's match against Dom Mysterio was really the sole bright spot as Cena not only put Dom and his cheating tactics over huge, but also made both Raquel and Roxanne look like a million bucks by taking their moves. Just not a very good event overall."

[6.0] "Women's wargames match was okay, the men's match was meh. I enjoyed the Cena vs Dominik match and the Women's World Title match was nothing special but Nikki wrestled her best match since coming back."

[7.0] "WWE Survivor Series: WarGames 2025 was a chaotic, entertaining show with more highs than lows. Cena vs. Dominik was messy but fun, full of interference and spots that fit Dom's character. The women's WarGames match was solid with some cool moments but it did have some issues with pacing early on. Stephanie Vaquer's title defense was a bit straightforward, but was an inoffensive affair. The men's WarGames closed the show with nonstop action and big spots and a finsih that's sure to upset some and intrigue others. Overall, a show that delivered spectacle and excitement, even if not every match was perfect."

[2.0] "By far the worst PLE of 2025. Every match that was on this show absolutely stunk, the women's war games match is the most tame stipulation match I ever seen like they couldn't have even be bothered to do anything big. Cena & Dom II was a huge letdown compared to there 1st match in Boston, Nikki & Stephanie felt like filler & the main event did not live up to expectations. Such a shame"

[6.0] "Not that bad but definitely could be better. I feel like some of the matches were too short. As per usual, the women's matches were the best along with the IC title match. Let's not talk about the men's WarGames match, I'm tired of Brock Lesnar and Logan Paul......."

[3.0] "One of the worst PLEs under Triple H, WWE is in dire straits at the moment. Something needs to give or they'll be fucked without Cena next year"

[6.0] "It wasn't that bad. The main event could have been a little more entertaining but I am hoping that this lays groundwork for 2026. This man in the mask was too much of a cliff hanger. Both of the women's matches were good ... the opening match in particular. They got the IC belt off of Cena is a fun way while boosting up Mysterio to help set-up SNME finale. All of it felt a touch flat at times but definately not less than adequate."

[2.0] "This was the worst PLE for WWE or overall in 2025, the matches were terrible to average, not one match stood out as good. AJ Lee, Alexa Bliss, Charlotte Flair, IYO SKY & Rhea Ripley vs Asuka, Becky Lynch, Kairi Sane, Lash Legend & Nia Jax: It did not live up to the standards of War Games and felt like a average steel cage match that outstayed its welcome, not many weapons were used which was a surprise, the weakest women's War Games match ever done, the right team won in my opinion with the only memorable moment being SKY hitting the moonsault off the cage, overall felt like an unforgettable match [*3/4]. Dominik Mysterio vs John Cena: Being the last PLE match for Cena, it was terrible unfortunately as all the interference from Judgement Day including the return of Liv Morgan which was not good, Dominik feigning the injury was not good, overall an unfortunate terrible match with a terrible result [DUD]. Stephanie Vaquer vs Nikki Bella: Not a fan of this match as the action was not good at all, even though it was ok to see Bella challenging for a world title in 2025, the chemistry was not there and it showed, the only memorable moment was the Devils Kiss on the announce table, Vaquer winning and retaining the title was obvious [*3/4]. Brock Lesnar, Bron Breakker, Bronson Reed, Drew McIntyre & Logan Paul vs CM Punk, Cody Rhodes, Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso & Roman Reigns: With this being potentially the biggest line up in a War Games match, it did not deliver as such unfortunately, Jey sitting on the cage dancing and yeeting with the music blaring through the stadium during the match was not good sadly especially when his team was outnumbered, the action was very average at best, the ending with the masked man getting involved to allow the heel team to win was ridiculous [*3/4]"

[2.0] "This was genuinely one of the worst WWE PPVs I've ever watched, and easily the worst PLE of the year. The WarGames concept is already completely oversaturated, and I honestly hope this is the last Survivor Series built around it because nothing about these matches worked. The women's WarGames match was super boring, saved only by Iyo's yearly trash-can spot. The men's WarGames was somehow even worse. They literally stopped the match mid-game so Jey Uso could dance and entertain the crowd, Dusty Rhodes must be turning in his grave seeing what's been done to his creation. And honestly, beyond the matches themselves, there were no real storylines going in, no build-up, nothing. WarGames was designed by Dusty to be violent, extreme, and a feud ender, but instead we got one of the worst men's and women's WarGames matches of all time. There was absolutely nothing to talk about here: no good matches, no good stories, and a silent crowd that didn't care. My local indie show puts on better matches, better promos, and better storytelling. WWE feels like a wrestling show for kids at this point. Overall. Embarrassing show. Hopefully the company picks up next year, because this was trash from top to bottom."

[5.0] "I don't understand why fans are so disappointed with this show. For me, it was just an average PLE, neither good nor bad, so I'm giving it a 5/10. I rated the women's war games a 6, the men's a 7, Cena's match an 8, and Vaquer's championship defense a 4. The average is 6.25, but at the event itself, aside from the appearance of a mysterious figure who's been kept quiet for now, we didn't get anything significant, so I'm dropping it to a 5."

[2.0] "abysmal garage, where do I even start? the women's War Games match was boring and was filled with many botches, the ending of Cena vs Dom was absolutely terrible and made zero sense at the end, Vaquer vs Bella made zero sense too. Finally, the men's War Games match happens and was good at one point but then turned into a pile of garbage with Jey Uso YEETing mid match which no one gives a fuck and did it just for a cheap pop, Then at the end and it was clearly either two options of the guy being in the hoodie with one being Seth Rollins OR Austin Theory. This PLE was a waste of money for anyone who spent money on this, which is ironic because this was Cena's final PLE. Vince would have never booked Cena this way for his retirement tour. Triple H has completely ruined Cena's farewell tour after the Royal Rumble along with many others."

[8.0] "I thought that it was a good show. I liked both WarGames matches to the point I think a little bit more time for the second portion of the matches would be great. The Women's Title match was good, it was a shame that the crowd wasn't into it as much as I was. My favourite match was the Intercontinental Title match, for sure. I enjoyed the show, though the ending wasn't exactly the most climatic, but it's wrestling, the show must always go on, so it's understandable to have some "whodunnit" booking."

[5.0] "Not a bad PLE but not a great one. I liked the women's Wargames but hated the trash can spot. I get so scared because I fear that eventually her luck will run out and she will get seriously injured or someone else will. The John Cena/Dominik Mysterio match was match of the night. Loved the last few minutes and it brought everything full circle for John's failed heel run (though it was a great heel turn). The match with Stephanie Vaquer and Nikki Bella was better than I expected. The men's Wargames was good but I was surprised that the two world champions were the first two out. Brock and Roman meeting again was really good and then the last couple minutes, it was just.....a disappointment. The yeeting in the middle of the match wasn't necessary but I understand the crowd loves it. I like the swerve with the man in the black hoodie doing Seth Rollins' Curb Stomp even though we know he's recovering from major surgery surgery. The general consensus is that it's Austin Theory. My first thought when he showed up was Chris Jericho but I didn't realize that he actually still had a little more contract time with AEW. But I'm curious to see where it goes. But on a whole, the show wasn't as great as it could have been. So I'm rating it right in the middle. But hey, you can't bat a thousand. You can't have a great show every single time. You're going to have a little bit of a slump and this event was it. Now, on to the Rumble."

[3.0] "I have to say, this was the worst Survivor Series I have ever seen (and I have seen them all). It's shocking that a "Premium" Live Event has just 4 matches. The Women's WarGames match was terrible. John Cena vs Dom Mysterio was meh (so overbooked), I would like to see Dom put on some upper body weight, mainly his chest and arms, Cena should have been taking advantage of his size by throwing Dom around and putting a beating on him (but he didn't sadly). John Cena in his prime was boring in-ring but solid, since he went part-time in 2018 he has been mostly pretty poor... at least the Championship has gone back to a full-timer (I am of the opinion that it shouldn't have gone on Cena anyway, he didn't need to be grand slam champion, especially as the plan was to just throw the title on him for 19 days (0 defences) and hand it right back to Dom just for the sake of it. Liv jumping on Cena how she did was just cringe, the man is married! I do love me some Dirty Dom! Dom has a cool look, great gimmick, good entrance, he is good in-ring and he is getting better and better, he just needs more size for him to be a believable future WWE Champion (he is currently built like Adam Cole). I feel for Stephanie Vaquer, Nikki Bella is and always has been a trash wrestler, this was the worst match I have seen Steph be a part of, she is not to blame though (the match just went 12 mins and 22 seconds too long). The WarGames Main Event was dull, predictable and had no fun spots, which is literally what this type of match is for. Also, having the mystery intruder scale up the cage in 2 seconds made a mockery of future cage matches (we are supposed to believe that climbing the cage is a slow, tedious, slog). Also the reason Jey Uso has still got his high up position on the card is because the crowd reacts to his catchphrase and entrance, he ain't going nowhere until that dies off. P.S did you notice how GREEN Drew and Bron's skin looked! ? My guess is a tan job gone wrong."

[9.0] "When I watched the first or second match, I caught myself feeling like I was watching the best WWE show in 2025. The open sky format was solid and really set the atmosphere of the show. AJ Lee's team won, Liv Morgan returned--baby! --and the Stephanie Vaquer vs. Nikki Bella match... just happened, I didn't watch it. But it didn't ruin the show, and despite that, Vaquer tried to pull off something interesting, like Devil's Kiss on the commentary table. WarGames turned out the way it did. The only thing preventing me from giving the show a perfect score is the idiotic and leaked ending of the WarGames in the main event. I'd even rate the show a 9.5 because it was awesome, and I just had a great time. I liked it. And I want to urge the respected wrestling fans to stop whining about everything. Nothing tragic or truly bad happened on this show. No one's career was ruined, nobody got injured (although with Lash Legend and Nia Jax around, something irreparable could've happened). Your favorite Bron Breakker won. Be glad you're witnessing shows like this now because it's not forever. John Cena has just one last match left in his career, and the wrestlers making content have been doing so since 2012-2013. They won't be able to keep up the quality for long. And at least, this show is genuinely good compared to the trash WWE has been putting out in 2022, 2023, and 2024."

[2.0] "People pretending like this is an okay or acceptable PPV are insane, I don't know how you could accept this for a big four PPV and it's clear that tribalism has unfortunately lowered peoples standards. This SUCKED. The only acceptable thing on this PPV was the Cena and Dominik match and for it being John Cena's last PPV match it was extremely underwhelming. It is good booking to have Dominik to go over, and now he can brag for the next decade about how he retired John Cena on PPV, but to have it basically just be a ton of interference is boring. Whatever, surely two major plunder matches have any sort of interesting substance to them right...? Well that would be wrong for the most part. The women's "War"Games match was god awful, maybe my least favorite match of the year considering the stipulation and the lack of anything interesting. No blood, close to zero weapons or meaningful spots, the only interesting part was funnily enough Lash Legend going crazy with a pump kick. Iyo Sky doing the same spot with the trash can is boring as fuck and looked awful this year, do something new. The Vaquer Bella match was atrocious and I turned it off during my original watch through of it live. Just boring meandering until they finally do the funny ass spot and she wins. The men's "War"Games match was fucking hilarious as well, why did Cody and Punk use blood packets instead of just blading man. Why did Cody and Logan Paul randomly brawl on top of the cage and climb down. Jey Uso "running it back" mid match was fucking awful as well, he isn't for me in any sort of way and I'm more than sick of seeing him highlighted. Why was the entire match built up for Brock Lesnar to just kill everyone? Who is he going to put over? What a disappointment of a show, the best stuff by far was the Dominik and Cena match."

[6.0] "The build-up of the show was mediocre yes, but overall that's not a catastrophic PLE. The women's Wargames match was good ( Kairi is the MVP of the match). John against Dominik was fantastic. Nikki against Stephanie was OK."

"A very disappointing show. No good storyline, nothing exceptional in the ring, in short, nothing. WWE is gonna losse some fans..."

[3.0] "A nothing happening show. All the matches were fine I guess but never did I get excited or interested in what was going on in the ring. Outside of the ring, an obsessive amount of commercials and dead time. I don't see how people can enjoy these shows live."

[2.0] "Insanely boring show. I think it's past time to retire WarGames matches because they are extremely played out at this point. It takes a good 30-40 mins for the match to even really "start" so there are no stakes up until that point and you really don't miss anything by skipping halfway into the match. Plus you also have little to no consequence for actually winning the thing a lot of the time. Not that I'm saying go back to the normal elimination tag style but it's time to try out a new gimmick and experiment a bit and try something a bit different. This show feels like it got in the way of the feuds and stories rather than furthered them and for one of the "Big 5" I found this incdredibly dissapointing."

[0.0] "Absolutely dreadful, and WWE has finally managed to completely kill any of the magic of WarGames just like they previously had done for HiaC, these are now just glorified playpens. Nothing of any substance happened on these shows, the WarGames should be a feud ender, and now it's just a terrible overused stipulation, especially when you have two boring, nothing matches on the same card that solved no feuds and only existed because we already booked WarGames. Jey Uso starts dancing in the middle of what's supposed to be a dangerous, potentially career ending match, and Iyo Sky jumps off the top with a branded trash can which made me cringe because what was once a great stipulation has now just been turned into soulless slop. The worst part, aside from the insult that this is 4 matches on a PLE and barely above the length of an episode of RAW, is that it leaves you with the worst feeling a wrestling show can, it makes you feel like you have completely wasted your time, because if you had skipped the show, you would have missed nothing."

[0.0] "I'm usually not this harsh but this genuinely one of the worst ppv's I've ever seen. Two war game matches that meant nothing, a very slow womens championship match, and Cena's final match was poorly handled just like his entire farewell tour. Comparing to survivor series last year, it's almost night and day. Zero excitement almost through the entire show. Only highlight was seeing Charlotte vs Becky during womens war games for a few minutes and the Liv return."

[4.0] "So, this should be a 5 or 6/10 considering my rankings, but I'm docking a point based on the fact that we don't have a proper survivor series match, yeah I know it's war games but the actual survivor series multi tag elimination match with NO CAGE would be nice! So we get 4 matches (which is heinous), one was decent, one involved Dominik Mysterio going indy and kicking out of a John Cena's finisher, even though he's never shown to be a powerhouse who could convincingly do that like Brock Lesnar or the Undertaker, Doninik is on Gregory Helms tier where he's a fantastic cheater but is also a massive pussy when it comes to taking damage back. Also Dominik's first title run was getting so old, it was so fun seeing him beat Rusev and Penta but it felt like it ran it's course, so here's hoping it's a short run. And speaking of people who don't deserve titles, let alone title matches, Nikki Bella has a titles match, which involved Stephanie Vaquer having ti dumb down her ability for her. The only match worth coming back to is the male War Games match, that was pretty good, but it's not enough to save what feels like a total let down from the previous Crown Jewel PPV."

[5.0] "Well, let me start by saying that the entrance stage was terrible, it looked like it was still being set up. The women's WarGames had some highlights, like Iyo Sky's dive. The match between Dominik Mysterio and John Cena was average, but Liv Morgan's return was amazing! Stephanie vs. Nikki didn't leave much of an impression. The men's WarGames could have been a bit more extreme. Also, who was the man in the black mask? Well, this one was average, everyone's evaluations were harsh."

[0.0] "This event was the worst WWE PLE of the year. It's unbelievable that, with 47, 000 fans in attendance, only four matches were held. Not including Rey Mysterio for a San Diego show was a huge misstep. The WarGames concept should be put on hold for a few years unless it becomes truly necessary. Overall, the event was disappointing and highlights how WWE seems to value profits over giving fans what they want."

[3.0] "This was ultimately quite an underwhelming event that seemed more focused on angles rather than the in-ring action at times. [Women's Wargames] The worst of the Wargames matches tonight for me. It was quite slow to start, a few exchanges when a fresh superstar ran in, but not many longer lasting moments besides these. The weapons brought in with them added a little something, but usually these weapons were forgotten soon after. IYO's dive in the trashcan was nuts but really only one of the very few memorable moments in this match. [IC Title] I guess in some ways a clever angle involving Dominik with a quite convincing injury angle, allowing lots of help to interfere on his behalf, but it all went too long and really disconnected the flow of the match too much. [Women's World Title] The better of the 2 title matches tonight, but it's pace wasn't great and there weren't many big moments besides the Devil's Kiss on the commentary table. Both women also looked a little lost at times. [Men's Wargames] Better pace and action from the start compared to the women's Wargames. Scary looking bump from Bron Breakker taking that Doomsday Device, especially when he wasn't on-screen for so long. Brock and Roman kinda took the focus away from what was happening and delayed the start of the match beyond by brawling outside the cage. When everyone was eventually in though it seemed a bit rushed to the finish, would have liked it to settle more then build up to it, but there was yet more interference leading to the finish here. Had all the talent and potential here on the show, but it just didn't quite deliver for me."

[2.0] "Man this was sooooooo average, at best. The war-games don't feel violent, the women's title match was DOA simply because no one wants to see Nikki Bella wrestle. While other people like the Cena Dom match I for one hated it. I'll give it a three because I wasn't completely offended by the war-games matches and Bron pinning Punk was the right call."

[5.0] "The ads were unbearable, Cena got beaten up by 3 women in his LAST PLE (not being sexist, that just isn't how he should be going out) - happy to see Liv back though, Women's WarGames was just so freaking BORING aside from everything after the inadvertent mist spray (at least Nia was better this time and Lash was good aside from her AWFUL theme), Steph/Nikki was very meh, Men's WarGames was easily MOTN (not the highest bar to clear but still) but it was not great aside from isolated moments, and Seth No-llins (pun) ruining Bron's defining moment was deflating. Even more deflating: whatever that closing shot was supposed to be. Apparently Cody and Drew were only in that match because of Jacob's dental issue; boo hiss. No shark cages was definitely... a choice; not fully sure how I feel about it (especially since it's probably only because Brock didn't want to be in one). No Rey to try screwing Dom over was weird too (tbh they should've just done Cena vs someone else for the IC Title and Dom vs Rey as an AAA Mega Title vs Rey's Career match). And did I mention THE FREAKING ADS? ! ? I personally enjoyed this but it is objectively not good."

[8.0] "I think the story was what was missing in this PLE the most. The women's match was good, in ring, but lacked some in the actual story. Also it should have gone for another 5-10 minutes as it felt it didn't reach the level of a WARGAMES match. Dominik and John was fun as John did his thing and put over not only Dom, but 6 stars from the Judgement day. Stephanie and Nikki admittedly felt a bit weak, but that wasn't helped by having this go between John Cena's 2nd last match ever and the star-studded match of the men's WarGames match. The men's WarGames match was great, although more big spots (maybe with tables? ) and a few more minutes added before the end would have really helped."

[6.0] "This PLE had a really high match, a really low match, and a couple of fine War Game matches. I am not a huge fan of War Game matches because until everyone is in the ring, there is a lack of stakes. The women's War Games had little build up, but many good workers in that ring. The match had some moments, but just did not wow overall. Much of this applies to the men's war games, but I felt there was more moments, plus the hoodie man gives it a slight edge over the women's. The women's world title match was not good and I would not put it on the champion. I will leave that there. I loved the Dom vs. Cena match. I am a huge fan of slimy heels, and Dom is my favorite wrestler right now. This was a Dom style match, but it highlighted so much of what make Cena great. The crowd work and the super human strength. I loved this match."

[1.0] "This was crap. Four weak matches including possibly the weakest WarGames matches WWE has put on to date (it might be time to find a new annual hook for Survivor Series if this is what Triple H can cook up), and way too much time dedicated to advertisements instead of wrestling. There's nothing good to take away from this show, which is always sad for a wrestling show. Just a complete dud, several hours I won't get back as a wrestling fan."

[6.0] "This show 100% overhated, because it have only 1 not intresting match, but everething else was fine. Yes, War Games matches not looked like we want it, but it's not a failure of even worse. I can say that is bad "Big 4" show, but it's fine event, where we got Liv Morgan's return, entertaining John Cena's match, and many intresting spots in War Games, but not so many as we need."

[7.0] "This could have been a legendary war games event, sadly didn't meet expectations. The men's war games match was the highlight with Cena match being pretty decent too. Unfortunately. the women's matches didn't deliver and it brought the whole event down."

[2.0] "Pretty rancid show to be honest. An incredibly average women's WarGames match, a Russo-esque IC Title match with a swerve everyone saw coming, I don't care for either guy so didn't mind the result but that being the finish to Cena's last ever PLE match felt pretty horrific, a poor women's world title match that was so beneath Steph, crowd didn't care a jot, and a somewhat half-decent (but little more than that, and I don't even know if I'd call it half-decent by the end) main with a flat as a pancake finish and yet another "man in hoody" bit. Absolutely nothing lived up to even the most moderate expectations, booking was extremely questionable and the amount of down time between matches was nigh on unbearable. WWE leaked they were planning to make shows more enjoyable but once they left Australia just seemed to give up on it. There's been a few good shows since but far more bad ones and this was another to add to the list in a really dire 2025 for them. Inconsequential and boring would be the way I'd describe it, and I think it's the way you'd fairly analyse far, far too many WWE shows from this year and it's where the obsession with moments, cheap pops and returns comes back to bite you."

[7.0] "[7.0] Idk, i liked it. Did people really expect something bloody or hell-ish after how those rivalries were booked on TV(Raw and Smackdown i mean). Women's Wargames- only Iyo and her trashcan comes to mind, the rest is whatever-6.0. Dirty Dom VS Juan Cena- don't know how to feel about this one. Cool to see Dom winning in his hometown, Cena passing the torch to Dominik and Liv Morgan's return. But boy, was this peak overbooking, getting beaten up by 6 people on your second last match. But I guess that is how you lie, cheat and steal to tame Super Cena, we'll se what happens on the 13th-8.0 Stephy Vaquer VS Nikki Bella- ok match, was expecting Nikki to get more pop, she's born in San Diego and all that, but then realised she grew up in Arizona, perhaps the crowd just didn't recognise a hall of famer. And main event, Men's Wargames- Now better than women's match as here the weapons n other objects were used more often and the pacing stated to pick up after Jimmy came out. Lesnar interrupting the yeeting session was kinda funny(not as funny as his Raw slip), then Roman arrived and here we go, tsunami, f5, spear, GTS n superkick and Superman Punch with knuckles spotfest which i wish would be longer than women's match. Nice that heels won, no idea what they are gonna do now. And why do i have a feeling the person in hoodie is Oba Femi? -8.0 Overall, good show, but i still miss the traditional Survivor Series format. Bring it back or at least make Wargames more brutal like Dusty Rhodes intended."

[5.0] "Not a waste of time nor money, but sure a waste of potential to be something special. There were plenty issues with the Women's War Games, lack of aggressiveness, storytelling bit points felt rushed. Kairi was my MVP of this match, I can't stand Becky Lynch. Faces getting the advantage was a dumb decision, there was an instance after all 5v5 were in the ring that Lash Legend and Nia Jax made a double pin. Somebody stopped the pin for Nia, but Lash still had the girl covered and referee did not count, C'MON! AJ Lee did not look good, however got the win, okay I guess. Cena vs Dom was fun, but massively staged, now this is gonna happen, and then this is gonna happen, then I'll come out and kick him in the balls. Too many things, I felt this was a waste for Liv Morgan's return. Bye, bye, John. Vaquer is great and she made Nikki look competent, good thing nothing fancy, is like having some good meal without desert. Men's WarGames started awesome, peaked right away with Bron Breakker and Drew vs Punk and felt down after Cody got in. It was a great line-up for this War Games match but they decided to keep it safe. Imagine the bonkerness if this would have been instead MFT vs Wyatt Sicks, we would.have got thumb tacks and wired baseball bats, but nah let's throw all the main eventers inside the cage and ask them to take care of each other. Which is absolutely fine! But at least make it up by giving us a great story, no another interference ending and cliff hanger for people to tune in next week and have a slight up in the tv ratings. Do better WWE or, at least, for this time, GIVE IT A TRY! Skip this show, go watch a movie or play a videogame. You'll have a review of all that went down for free on Netflix next Monday."

[3.0] "The best soild outing of the night was Nikki Bella vs Stephanie Vaquer. The woman's wargames was alright, people sitting on Iyo for doing the same thing every year but I don't think she's done a backflip with one on before. Lash Legend looked like a beast aswell. Cena/Dom was almost great but as it stands it's just fine. One of the best injury fakeouts I've seen in quite some time. I liked Liv Morgan's return aswell, I figured she was gonna come back tnt to cost Cena. Also I think this is the first time Cena's opponents properly committed to the double AA. The ref not counting the pin kinda ruined the match which sucks to say because there was a few pretty good highlights. This did not feel like John Cenas last ppv match by the time he was leaving the ring. The main event was pretty good, we get some blood, Brock Lesnar killing people including Roman. It was quite good untill the mystery man who might be Austin Theroy kinda ruined the whole feel of this main event. Idk this had some highlights but most of the show was quite boring and some bad booking aswell as weak storylines going into this show didn't help things for that matter"
