[0.0] "At best this was event was boring, at worst it was a snuff film. The constant "joy" being the commentators (who sound like their sharing a microphone in an airtight box) and their racist, homophobic and otherwise bad jokes. [1st match] Kinda alright opener minus the finishing move clearly not making any contact with the canvas. (**) [2nd match] Promo before the match was horrible but at least Evan Karagis gets to work somewhere for a little while until almost dying from Psicosis's outside spot, WTF was he even going for? Camera almost misses the finish (**) [3rd match] Sloppy moves, tons of no-selling, some of the weakest chairshots ever and run-in by a bunch of dudes; one of them hitting a decent suplex at least. (-***1/4) [TV Title matches] Vs Angel: okay but had another odd apron spot. Vs Hamrick was both good & bad. Hamrick is nuts for taking those 2 spots to the outside, finish looked dangerous. Vs Nosawa: Some good moves but some stalling & no-selling from Nosawa. Camera totally missed the belt shot, what is wrong with these people? ! you could literally see it coming. All 3 matches to me were (**1/4) La Familia seem like the only worthwhile thing about this promotion. [7th match] Showed that decent matches & chairshots were possible. Mosco seemed more concerned with his gear than selling. Black's Army Wins (even when it loses! ) according to the idiotic commentator. (**3/4) [8th match] Pain, audibly & visually and the boss's chick won, what a shocker! commentators sunk to a new low during this. (-*****) [9th match] Rizzono wrestles a Monkey (presumably the one in charge of the camera cuts) to audible "boring" chants. (-**1/4) [10th match] Went from average to very very bad. 2nd match in a row for boring chants. (-**3/4) [11th match] Nothing like a rest spot to start off a Deathmatch. Too little action to warrant all the stalling. Finish sucked but the commentator sold it like death. (*) [Main] 95% of this match was Jack hitting Grimes with stuff. Don't recall any wrestling moves taking place, unless you want to count Jack's Low Blow & throwing Grimes off the scaffold as moves? just about one of the worst things I've ever seen in wrestling. (-*****1/2) One of the most low-rent, low effort shows I've ever witnessed. I can't believe people actually paid to watch this..."
[0.0] "This show proved that even when XPW had the potential to have a good show it was still bad. For every match with potential with guys like Evan Karagias, Psicosis, Juventud Guerrera, Kaos, X-Fly and Sandman they still managed a bad show. Had a guy wrestling in a monkey costume, 2 women who did not belong in a ring and literally attempted murder. Not having insurance for this shows also shows how poorly XPW was managed. Matches that had 2 good competitors ended up being just okay and does not make up for the worst parts of the show. Hard to figure out who to cheer for because it seems stables change roles based on the match. Overall, just a very bad show despite it actually had potential."
[4.0] "Only watch for the title matches, Juventud Guerra vs X Fly, and Psicosis vs Evan Karagis. Everything else not worth mentioning, well except New Jack trying to commit a Homicide that has gone down as one of the most infamous moments in XPW."
[1.0] "Shows are often remembered for how they ended. The ending to this show was disgusting in every sense, and the show itself became infamous for it."
[7.0] "This show was pretty fun. Rob Black seems like just an utter piece of shit, a self-important scumbag whose vision really only consists of him being the one to get first pick when playing action figures with his pals from school. Luckily, the result is often funny. Kris and Larry on commentary are very often absurd, provoking confusion, a roll of the eyes, or just laughter. The matches themselves are not that much. I would say though that if you seeked out and put on an XPW show expecting workrate then you are crazy. What I expected was some US wrestling school training stuff with a big side of sleaze and trash, as well as Nosawa, and I got both. The overall message of this show, from the Buck Naked match [by the way if you watched WSX and had a crush on Kris Kloss you get to hear him orgasm into the mic a lot on this show] ending in a non-finish, to the GQ Money promos [plural] to the multiple turns and general confusion wrt faces and heels, is that you are stupid for watching XPW because they will not justify your investment nor make any of your hopes come true. This is a good moral, even if New Jack sending the fans home happy with the scaffold bump does ruin it a bit. The Grand Olympic is a really cool-looking venue."
[1.0] "Awful event. Poor booking, little sense of who was supposed to be face and who was supposed to be heel (the main feud being between two apparently heel stables), bad lighting, dire commentary, uninspired hardcore wrestling with constant run-ins in most matches, and the whole thing ends with Vic Grimes nearly getting killed in the scaffold match. About the only thing remotely recommendable was the TV Title gauntlet match, and particularly the second part of that (Kaos vs. Chris Hamrick). Can't recommend even bothering to look this show up on YouTube."
