[8.0] "They came for a fight. Classic blood stoppage finish but the post-match fight with the referees trying to separate both men was something new in the WWF."
[8.0] "Awesome violent fight. Bob Backlund shines against Stan Hansen as they ramp it up the aggression in this bloody clash. I haven't watched every match in the series but it seems clear like the violence escalated until that great cage match."
[6.0] "This was fine but the ending is really bad to me. Ending on a no contest because Backlund and Hansen get into a back and forth slugfest is pretty bad booking. Sets up for another in the future but come on, this is a title match at MSG. Hansen is very intimidating against someone Backlund's size but Backlund can work with Hansen easy and get him up with ease so it makes for a fun dynamic."
[8.0] "Dieses WWF Heavyweight Title Match fand ich richtig stark. Stan war hier wieder richtig brutal. Es ist eins der sicher vielen WWF Matches wo man sah wie gut er auch in der WWF war. Am Schluss gab es ordentlich vile Blut bei Stan zu sehen (***1/2)."
