[6.0] "It was a good first match for this show with a good performance by both men, I didn't expect that result but it is logical in the continuity of The Pope's reign. Okay TV title defense from him, the second best match of this weekly. ***"
[6.0] "Very good match. A match like this, as opener, in a show like this is pretty perfect: clean, fluid, nice exchanges and all, a perfect combination of simple yet effective spots. Nice chemistry between two navigated workers."
