[2.0] "A match I'd very much like to forget. Ronda Rousey was at her absolute worst here and looked AWFUL in here. The ending was weird and not in a good way. I don't get putting the title on Liv if you're just gonna fed her to Ronda. Such poor booking."

[6.0] "This match is no way any bad as people are commenting and stuff, Liv Definitely deserved a better reign byt her first one was more of just being the underdog, now that she's the world champion again, shes definetally going to prove more and now shes a heel an shes doing great, there were some spots that diddnt work but thats not all their faults, i do wish that live retained though. Ronda had already got a good reign with the raw womens title, also wish she didnt come back really. I dont get why this match is so low."

[2.0] "Terrible match. Slow as molasses, extremely weak looking hits when weapons are used, a couple botches, and an ending that is not only immensely unsatisfying but also a terrible booking decision. There's no point in watching this one, as it's not even a "so bad it's good" situation, it's just bad."

[3.0] "A bad match between both women with all the plunder being very weak and this was just a sad end to Liv's very underwhelming first reign as a women's world champion in WWE."
ShaliK wrote on 16.10.2024:
[4.0] "More than average match. I didn't find the beginning that bad but the rest leaves something to be desired. Lots of botches during this match and the finish with Liv Morgan smiling while losing consciousness brings back painful memories of Alexa Bliss' horrible gimmik. Too bad. (2*1/4)"

[2.0] "[1.0*] This is the second match I remember the most from this event, and for a completely opposite reason than Brutes vs Imperium. This was so bad that was the match where I finally understood that Ronda was never going to work out in WWE, and she really never did. Bad match."

[4.0] "This is one match that's certainly worse on rewatch than I remember live in the arena. I couldn't tell how bad all the weapon shots were live. These two just didn't really have chemistry. There were a lot of botches and sloppy spots. They tried, and it's not a complete trainwreck, but you never want to feel embarrassed for the wrestlers in a match, and that's sort of the feeling I got."

[5.0] "Liv's reign was incredibly badly done with her beating Ronda unconvincingly twice, having a solid match with Shayna before losing it here in a really boring Extreme Rules match. Part of me liked the finish and her not tapping out but the weird gimmick kind of hurt it with her smiling and all."

[4.0] "I recall this match being much worse, it is not great by any means, but has some decent action in it. 4/10"
Sky23 wrote on 08.01.2024:
[4.0] "Some people were ranking this among the worst matches of the year, and I can tell you this doesn't deserve that reputation. Sure, absolutely no one wanted Ronda to win the title, and it was absolute foregone conclusion that she would, but they put on a generally okay match. Liv sold like a champ and took her shots believably."
Jacklist95 wrote on 15.10.2023:
[3.0] "A bad match. Not only is this match slow and messy. But it really looks like the goal of this match is to show that your babyface, who was one of the most over of the division when she took the title, is not able to hang with Rousey except by taking cheap shot by surprise ... A very terrible booking decision. 3/10."
JacquesRougeauCanHaveMyWife wrote on 07.09.2023:
[3.0] "Oh my God, this hardcore Liv Morgan stuff was awful. Her previous two encounters with Rousey and Baszler were actually quite believable as Morgan was made the underdog there, but here they're evenly matched which is bollocks. Apart from that their stuff looked bad and unnatural, plus the finish with smiling Liv was just nothing but lame."
Storyline Guy wrote on 06.06.2023:
[4.0] "This match should have never happened. These two did not mesh well in their previous match and this just made Liv's title reign even worse. She deserved so much better."
Screaming Enigma wrote on 09.03.2023:
[4.0] "Unfortunately, that match featuring the PLE's namesake was the worst match on the card, in my opinion. The best part of this match was the Diving Senton through the table to Rousey, but that was about it. Morgan smiling in the submission was interesting, but that and the one pretty good spot can't hold a match together alone. While there was some cool concepts and ideas in this match, it just never fully came together for me."

[1.0] "Just terrible. Ronda and Liv have no chemistry whatsoever. Spots were sloppy, horrible chair hits (or taps). Avoid at all costs."
TheBestOfWrestling wrote on 22.02.2023:
[5.0] "There were many botches in this match. Ronda Rousey and Liv Morgan can both hold their own in a match but this was just bad. If the spots in this match were landed it wouldn't have been that bad but a lot of them missed. There was still some decent parts about this, such as the fire extinguisher spot and the table spot at the end but it was an overall mess."
BH62 wrote on 08.02.2023:
[4.0] "At least, they can transmit some emotions and sell for each other, but that was so clumsy, damn. The hatred between 'em elevated the shit while Morgan carried it with her selling. We're at a point where Rousey has to be carried. Anyway."

[10.0] "This match was great. Ronda is A top tier SD women's champion, and Liv Morgan has A bunch of upside and the potential of another match between them has me excited and it would break the internet. Top tier selling from both."

[3.0] "One of the big disappointments of the night. I didn't expect much but I thought with Liv's improvement and Rhonda's natural abilities, they might somewhat surprise us but it was just another skippable match between two of the top SmackDown superstars. Disappointing to say the least. *1/2"

Prince Osborne wrote on 25.10.2022:
[6.0] "There were clunky moments without a doubt but that doesn't mean that both women's work was horrendous. The action was pretty cool with some spots expressing the extreme nature clearly while some didn't find its place of the tagline. Both found decent chemistry through previous bouts and leveled it up here, thanks to the weaponry offering its solid share of increasing the intense surrounding. Apart from those moments, there wasn't anything special to note except the possible tease of a change of winds for Morgan. Rousey is the flagbearer again and I hope it's not planned for a long term while Morgan could find herself different in the new shade. 2.75 out of 5 stars!"
PavelDragunov wrote on 16.10.2022:
[6.0] "Of course, in some places the match was very ridiculous, the moment with the chair that fell and the moments when the girls were just waiting for them to fly from each other, it certainly looked weak, to put it mildly. But at the same time it is not boring and extreme was present. It was time for Ronda Rousey to return her toy for a long time and she coped with it. Liv Morgan, no matter how hard she tried, but luck has a temporary effect. Perhaps instead of a baseball bat, it was worth using a kendo stick."

[6.0] "There were some fun spots and moments throughout this match, but it never truly clicked sadly. I respect both competitors not wanting to cause any real pain on one another, but the weak weapon shots certain did not help things. The crowd struggled to get into this one and as a result, it made the experience as a viewer less enjoyable as well."
enei200 wrote on 13.10.2022:
[4.0] "The start of the match was enjoyable, the story they had was fun with Liv trying to awaken her killer instinct and Ronda just being a level ahead of Liv in terms of power and technic. Yet, when it actually came to the spots, they were done very weak. Both women were afraid to do good shots on one another, barelly making any impact."
WrestleWire wrote on 11.10.2022:
[5.0] "Some cool looking spots and enjoyable moments. There were certainly some brutal examples of why this matchup was intriguing, but I feel like it never truly clicked. Some of these reviews are beyond harsh, but to each their own. I think this was less than great, but still adequate. 5 out of 10."

[8.0] "Very good match with some cool looking spots, I liked how agressive they were in the beggining and the finish was well done, Rousey looked strong with a great heel reaction from the crowd."
Olympus19 wrote on 10.10.2022:
[0.0] "If any match deserves a zero, it's this one. Pointless stipulation given that neither lady knows how to use weapons believably. Some of the spots were laughable, as in literally laugh out loud funny. That's not what you want from a hardcore match. Neither of these ladies can wrestle. I know Rousey can fight, but that has not translated to a pro wrestling ring. Liv is supposed to be the plucky underdog but I'm not seeing any charisma from her. And of course Rousey is a charisma vacuum. This match is a complete waste of time. Strongly recommend you skip it."

It should be immortalized so future generations can gaze upon it to feel better about their own individual job performances. DUD"

[4.0] "This wasn't very good at all. All of the baseball bat shots didn't look good, and it's not like any of Liv or Ronda's offense in this match looked great in this either. Not the worst match ever but certainly not a good one.**"
MilkDDT wrote on 10.10.2022:
[3.0] "With how badly Liv had been booked as a champion, I support the route they took here with Ronda regaining the title in dominant fashion. Unfortunately, the only extreme aspect of this match was how disappointing the action was. Between the jarringly soft weapon hits and clunky counters, this was undoubtedly my least favorite bout of the night."

[7.0] "This was really good actually. Ronda felt very dangerous, but Liv always found ways to get out of it, until Ronda caught her and just left her no way out."

[7.0] "There were some mishaps here but otherwise this was a pretty good match. I liked the finish of Liv struggling to hold off Ronda as she coiled into an awesome looking submission maneuverer with the former going out with a smile."
JonahBlack wrote on 09.10.2022:
[6.0] "Enjoyable match. Really liked Rousey smooth submission transitions. I thought the two even handled the spots that went awry as well as could have been hoped (in fact, I thought Bianca and Bayley had worse instances of seeming lost with a blown spot)"

[5.0] "This really could have been worse. Liv and Ronda have been exceeding expectations as of late but this match finally exposed a lot of their weaknesses. While I wouldn't re-watch this unless you paid me, it's obvious that effort was put in to this match, especially from Ronda who seems like she's just riding her contract out as of late. Maybe cause she went over in this match. There are a few cool spots where she switches up different submissions on Liv, which is the kind of thing I guess she should be doing, but seeing *Ronda* do submissions to *Liv* and the match not be immediately over, several times, is a little hard to believe. The bat stuff is a good idea for a match story, and they both really looked like they were trying to make it work, but these are the two performers on the card least qualified to get something like that over. Especially after just watching walter and sheamus actually beat the shit out of each other for 20 mins. It seems like this program might continue, but fans might be burnt out on these two. Not a bad match, but skippable or not worth rewatching."
FrenchPingu wrote on 09.10.2022:
[8.0] "Good match, plenty of nice weapons spots (and good enough adaptation after the chair dropped of the post) and a clear and effective dynamic between Liv and Ronda. Liv definitely gained an edge with this match and her post-match reactions (the smiling while getting unconscious was ok but done better with Nikki on NxT), too bad she didn't win but sometimes the underdog actually have to be dominated."

Turnabout Wrestling wrote on 09.10.2022:
[5.0] "Wasn't that bad honestly, the first half was actually pretty solid and was fun but after that chair botch, things went downhill really fast. The chair shots looked unimpressive and the offense became sloppy after that botch almost as if both of them were flustered."

[1.0] "It's simple: if you're going to do a hardcore match, and the hardcore spots are bad, the match is useless. Soft bat and chair hits; a table spot that looked worse than the SmackDown one; and a missing chair spot. Clunky and embarrasingly bad at times. Don't know much about Liv's character but her smiling after losing her belt is beyond dumb."

[5.0] "Don't think it's as bad as others think it is. I think both wrestlers looked strong and i especially loved Morgan passing out rather than tapping and with a smile on her face too. Excited to see what changes to her character this loss will bring about. Rating takes a dip because of the chair falling out of place and them still going with the intended spot when i personally think it would have been better to just improvise something else."

Enchantium wrote on 09.10.2022:
[3.0] "This being the next match after the banger opener was a killer. This match was not highly anticipated. This was slow, unenjoyable, too many botches but fair play to Liv Morgan on attempting to have a good match with someone who just was green the whole time. I knew Ronda Rousey was going to win because her losing twice is most definitely heard of but losing three times in a row is not. Bland, botchy and boring."
