[5.0] "Hilariously this is the best GAB so far, but mostly because 2004 and 2005 were pretty bad. Almost nothing of note in the middle of the show but the opener and main event are very good. Helms/Hardy is pretty solid too. But everything else is a blunder of epic proportions."

[4.0] "I genuinely forgot how mediocre this show was. The WWE Great American Bash events have quite a few stinkers across their run, and while this is better than the worst of them, it isn't an example of a good WWE Bash either. Nothing on this show is worth watching for the quality. The main event is worth it to see Booker's career culminating win. The Punjabi Prison might be worth seeing for the spectacle, and the opening tag match might be worth it for a very specific audience. But even those three matches aren't anything special. JBL's commentary across this event is particularly grating to cap it off. Not an awful show, but there is very little reason to watch this. I don't recommend it."

[5.0] "It wasn't the worst, wasn't the best, just down in the middle. The opener was the best match of the night, plus Hardy vs Helms was decent and the main event even though lacked the big fight feeling it was still pretty serviceable, although I'm not looking forward to Sharmell constantly screaming into my ears in the following months. The rest was meh though. Finlay vs Regal had absolutely no heat even though the work was good, Taker and Show did what they could, but they were stuck with a horrible stipulation, women's bollocks was women's bollocks and Kennedy vs Batista wasn't anything special, but it made Kennedy look really good. So overall nothing to go back to really, maybe apart from the Tag Team Title match."

[3.0] "Not the greatest show here. Booker/Rey is a ok main event but nothing special. Rey's title reign is undoubtedly one of the worst world title reigns ever. Kennedy/Batista is pretty basic, Obviously WWE wanted neither man to lose hence the DQ finish but that leads to a flat ending. Punjabi Prison is absolutely awful, a terrible concept for a match. Probably would have been even worse if Khali was in it though. Helms/Matt is decent, nothing memorable but ok. Finlay/Regal was a well worked match, although I understand some people don't enjoy this kind of match. Tag title match is the best match on the show for me, not a great match, but solid. London and Kendrick matches are normally pretty good. Bra and Panties match is just a toilet break, nothing more than that. A very poor show in my opinion."

[6.0] "A fine event, nothing major but most of the matches are good even if there is not a single great match in the card. Right start with the tag team titles match, then a technical Finlay vs Regal that the crowd did not like at all. Even Hardy vs Helms is solid enough, but then there is a more than 20 minutes terrible Punjabi Prison match without Khali involved. Batista vs Mr. Kennedy has a unexpected ending, it seemed an easy match for Batista until that. The main event is the end of one of the worst booked title reigns, Rey Mysterio does a fine match with King Booker but in the end Chavo decides the winner. Enjoyable for the most part."

[1.0] "Terrible PPV. Regal / Finlay match contended with "Boring" chants. The Punjabi Prison match was a horrible concept. Only somewhat good match on the card was the main event and Chavo turning his back on Rey. Everything else is skippable."
