Chris Sabin vs. Matt Bentley vs. Petey Williams

[6.0] "Where does this fall in the oeuvre of Ultimate X matches? TNA sure loves its convoluted match types, and Ultimate X is probably, well, the ultimate. Sabin impresses in this match for sure, I don't know what to say for Bentley, who I don't think was quite on the level of him and Williams. He does take his fair share of bumps in this one. The X falling twice hamstrings the match unfortunately. The match wasn't a 9 or 10 level before this, probably more like a 7, and I don't think it was on the road to being an all timer before this. It makes me curious how the rematch for this went though."

[4.0] "Really good X-Division action from the participants, but the problems with the X not wanting to stay where it belonged ruined the match."

[8.0] "The first half of this match was a solid 9-10, with tons of great spots and no clear favorite to win. Right around the spot with Sabin hanging from the ropes, the match really started to slow down, and the X falling didn't really help - it sat a bit dead in the water until the very end, at which point the X falling again really left a bad taste in my mouth. I won't take off another point for the ending because it isn't like Petey was super far from winning, but it definitely keeps the match from being rated any higher."

[6.0] "To say TNA caught some flack for this chicanery would be an understatement. They would end up doing a rematch on Impact after declaring the result of this one void. Its a shame as the match was a pretty exhilarating spot fest before the X went into business for itself"

[8.0] "WOW! A very low rating for this TNA Ultimate X match at the crown jewel event that is TNA Bound For Glory! GRAPPL has it rated more generously at 3.2 stars AKA 6.4/10, but I liked it a lot. It's an 8/10 for me."

[6.0] "Far from the best Ultimate X match I've seen but this was still a decent enough match. Petey winning by catching the X as it fell was a pretty unique finish."

[5.0] "These three managed to do some cool stuff here. It's unfortunate what happened to the X on the cables."

[6.0] "The X on the cables going into for business itself brought down this match. They would later have a rematch that would make up for this one on TV a couple weeks later."

[6.0] "Certainly an interesting Ultimate X with the unplanned finish taking center stage along with some decent spots."

[6.0] "All three guys were over with the crowd. This was an entertaining midcard three way. I will always pop for Petey Williams standing on someone? s balls while he cheerfully belts out the Canadian national anthem ***1/4"
