[7.0] "Really a good main event for an episode of Smackdown in 2013. The Shield that period was a force of nature and every time they were in action they were always the best part of the WWE shows, together with Daniel Bryan. 3.75 stars."
[8.0] "These main event style tag matches the featured the shield, and any babyfaces at the time were some of the best matches during this time period in the WWE. Even when the shield became babyfaces the same message still applies. These matches ruled"
[8.0] "Seeing performances like this from Goldust, and its a shame he wasnt really able to do his thing in the late 90s. He opens up with great fire, and he also throws one hell of an uppercut. The babyfaces got some shine in until it was time to work over Cody. Goldust also gets a brief hot tag in here where he gets to do his thing, but Reigns tags in behind his back and then we get the best part of the match where they keep Goldust in the corner and do constant tag to get a beating on him. The real hot tag is the Bryan hot tag as they let him run wild, and we also got a hot finishing stretch. Another strong shield tag match from 13-14.***3/4"
[8.0] "I'm deep diving the career resurgence of Dustin Rhodes/Goldust and these matches are sticking out. Which matches? Rhodes brothers vs Shield members, this all works very well and everyone is gaining something from this ...feud? In this contest, Big E, Daniel Bryan and Randy Orton are the variables but only the latter two make any difference. I have no complaints, this is rad tag action and almost everyone gets plenty of time to shine. *ahem* I think Big E might have been hurting this night. I wish I could hand out a 9 or 10 but in all honesty - I'm going into these mostly cold, if I ever get to this era in earnest I will maybe rate some of these differently. who knows. Blah blah blah GOOD MATCH! Watch it!"
