[6.0] "I hate House of Torture matches, but Shingo and Takahashi are just too good and were able to reverse some of the annoying things that happened during the match. ***"
[6.0] "It wasn't a boring House of Torture match, but it also wasn't anything special. Takagi & Hiromu did well, and I thought the wrestling was fine. Dick wrestled like he usually does, and EVIL had a lazy low-blow spot. The ending was cool with Hiromu landing EVIL, should be a fine match. *** 1/4"
[7.0] "I was expeting a HoT winning but it didn't happen. Despite that fact, it was a good match. Takahashi showing his importance at NJPW, and Takagi just making the perfect company for him. It will be great to see them figthing for the NEVER title. [***1/2]"
[6.0] "Surprisingly, this wasn't that bad. In fact, there were some cool moments in this short sprint. EVIL and Togo still can grind matches to a halt with their bullshit cheating, but they have been doing so a bit less often over the last few months. EVIL and Hiromu have great chemistry, and the finish of this match makes me look forward to their NEVER title bout, which might make me a fool for hoping it will be good. ***"
