[5.0] "This show was okay. The goal was definitely to hype up Hulk Hogan vs. The Ultimate Warrior at Wrestlemania. The Hogan vs. Savage match was alright and enjoyable, though I do feel Randy looked a little poor performance-wise (or just set up to look that way). It was still okay. But the Bravo vs. Warrior matchup was just a glorified, short squash match that really didn't do much for me. I'd give that match a 4/10 (too short to rate it on the site). It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good, either. At least it was short, I guess. The promos were okay, but not enough to really boost the score on this show for me. In total: 5/10"

He looked like a right chump coming out of this, and of course anything involving Warrior and Bravo is the shits. Of course WWF do a great hype job anyway despite what we've just witnessed."

[6.0] "This was a tradition at this point, for Hogan to settle his most recent feud on The Main Event leading into Wrestlemania. But this one felt the most pointless out of all of them. People below are bitching about the treatment of Savage like his career didn't turn out well. Dino Bravo shouldn't have been anywhere near this show."

[7.0] "I don't know if I got caught up in the hype of the Mania 6 main event or something but I really enjoyed this show. I thought that Hogan vs Savage was shockingly good here, especially with how many times they'd already clashed. Buster Douglas played his role very well; especially considering it was planned to be Mike Tyson in that role. I even thought Ultimate Warrior vs Dino Bravo was pretty decent. I thought this show served its purpose very well."

[4.0] "This was a pointless show. They tried to build interest in the main event at WrestleMania with a pair or mediocre matches, but it probably lowered interest if anything. We opened with the Match of the Night as Hulk Hogan defended his World Heavyweight Title against Randy Savage. The Ultimate Warrior then defended his Intercontinental Title against Dino Bravo in a short, dull match."

[6.0] "I quite enjoyed this show. It lasted for about an hour. Hogan vs. Savage and the stuff around it was okay. Warrior vs. Bravo was not as good, it was a short one but it wasn't outright bad. Then they hyped up the Hogan vs. Warrior match at WrestleMania VI."

[3.0] "I would call this a one match show, but there were only TWO matches on this thing! These Main Event shows were usually not very good. Hogan/Savage for historical purposes is worth at least one view but Bravo/Warrior was feh! More about having Hogan/Warrior at the same show so they can get involved in each others matches to build hype for Mania 6."

[4.0] "This show existed exclusively to promote Hogan vs. Warrior at WrestleMania, and while it was very effective at doing that, I can't say you'd miss much if you skipped this event. Warrior's IC title match with Bravo was nothing but a squash, and Hogan's WWF title match with Savage was a lot more fun yet very predictable."

[1.0] "Ah, usually I find some charm in content from this era but with only two matches and both of them being poor, and a unending barrage of promos from an increasingly unlikeable Hogan, an incoherent Warrior, and a disinterested boxer? Count me out, this was not for me."

[5.0] "The card had two potential great matches, but Hogan vs Savage (final act) is clearly forced by the presence of the special referee, the world boxing champion at that time. Warrior vs Dino Bravo was a squash, but Warrior's performance was really electric. So the event was a bit disappointing for what it could offer."

[4.0] "This was one of Hulk Hogan's better matches, which I think could be attributed to Randy Savage's ability more than his own. The addition of Buster Douglas was unnecessary in my personal opinion, though I do respect him immensely. Ultimate Warrior's match was pretty short, but I suppose that is to be expected."
