[8.0] "This is such a cool match! Street fights with the competitors wearing jeans and t shirts looks bad ass. Doom is a criminally underrated team. Reed and Simmons were legit ass kickers but Arn and Windham really looked like formidable opponents ."

[8.0] "Really ugly brawl that just goes all over the place. Immediately goes to the outside and Arn Anderson and Ron Simmons brawl on the ramp. Butch Reed busted Barry Windham's forehead open and then used a belt buckle to grind into the cut. Windham's blood was incredible in this, Arn gets good blood too. There's a really great Simmons spinebuster in this, Paul Heyman loses his mind when Windham kicks out. Double pin finish was interesting but I think I'd like it more if the match was longer. A really fantastic sub 10 minute match"

[8.0] "I'm guessing as soon as Flair was replaced with Barry Windham, his role in the main event was going to be more clear. Whether it would've made this match better or worse is a mystery. Flair is the better wrestler, but Windham in a brawl? Maybe more suitable here. And personally, I think Flair could've done both matches with ease. But as it stands, this was terrific.. They fight almost immediately, on the entrance, on the floor, in the ring. Even Jim Ross struggled to call it. It's a slugfest that was beyond a play by play description. It was dogged, dirty and pretty nasty. Windham bleeding in his leather gear was a terrific look. He looked like a bad ass. Doom thrived in this short format as well. They could be brutal as well as quick, not having to worry about pacing a 15 minute match. And they used everything they could, including a thick belt with the buckle included which was gross. But this is WCW, so they had to do a dumb double finish. Just fucking pin someone clean. Ugh. But at least they brawled afterwards too which did distract from the finish. Shame it doesn't go further than this. Maybe Ole's most inspired work putting Doom against the Horseman. But he's gone after this show. ****"

[7.0] "Really like this one. Windham and Double A have great chemistry and the two teams just go blow for blow, swinging for the fences and looking like they were beating the crap out of one another. Didn't like the finish"

[4.0] "Can't call this anything more than generic brawling. Ending is terribly timed as you can see the referee wait until second pin happens to start double counting."

[8.0] "Always loved this match. Anderson and Windham and Doom looked like they were legitimately beating the crap out of each other. The finish takes away from the match, but only slightly. To me, this match should be what a street fight is supposed to be. Nothing contrived, nothing stunt-y, just guys looking to hurt each other."

[6.0] "A brawl with a questionable ending, in the end this seems more like an angle than a match itself, at least it has some good brutal moments and blood everywhere [***]."

[7.0] "Ah the old double pin in a title match on your biggest show of the year. This whole match sums up the company perfectly. Great work generally from bell to bell, stupid finish, time allocation of the match all wrong. Great brawl and the juice helped it."

[6.0] "This was a good street fight while it lasted. It really needed more than 7 minutes, though. The double pin finish also really hurt it."
JacquesRougeauCanHaveMyWife wrote on 25.08.2024:
[6.0] "They just go in there and have a really enjoyable fight. There's not much thought behind it, there's not much of a structure, they just beat the hell out of each other, plus the blood adds some substance into it. It's not the wrestling clinic, but overall it was pretty fun."
KingsCrossing wrote on 10.04.2024:
[7.0] "This was awesome while it lasted - just a bloody, ugly brawl. It's very sloppy, but in a way that only serves to enhance the overall atmosphere of the match. Unfortunately, it is also very short and ends with in very underwhelming fashion with another goofy finish, but it's a lot of fun for seven minutes at least."

[6.0] "The Doom vs Four Horsemen feud has been surprisingly good. This time it's a street fight. This one ends with a double pin. I enjoyed Doom in the latter part of 1990, and it kinda a shame how I've grown to like the team and now they'll soon be split up. I kinda wish Flair worked this match too, because in hindsight I feel it makes later happenings in this show a little more obvious."

[8.0] "What a great brawl...Windham still sporting his fake Sting haircut from Halloween Havoc. The Horsemen and Doom were two factions I never thought would fight each other during this period, but they did. And did so very well. But this doesn't really stand the test of time, despite being a fun brawl."

[7.0] "A street fight from the beginning until the very end. The draw sets up another rematch, but they had already done a non-finish at Halloween Havoc. The match was obviously good, but I would've liked a more decisive finish here. [***1/2]"

[8.0] "A full on hardcore brawl before 'hardcore' was even a thing. Great energy from the crowd is a plus as always. Action packed from start to finish. The ending left a lot to be desired however. [***3/4]"

[9.0] "These four guys just absolutely beat the shit out of each other for 8 minutes. This is the type of perfectly refined chaos that made WCW the best alternative to the WWF at the time. Ron Simmons looks like an absolute star in this match, but every body killed it. Butch Reed deserves way more praise than he receives from modern fans. Just a classic brawl. The fuck finish didn't even bother me because it was the cherry on top of this insanity sundae."

[8.0] "A manly brawl from the start to the conclusion, it's a short tag team match but one of the bests in that time. Doom improved a lot during the course of 1990. Also a great heel performance by the Four Horsemen. ****"
Mizzle Assault Ant wrote on 09.12.2015:
[8.0] "The brawling is great, smashing each other around on the ramp, whipping with belts and driving buckles into foreheads, pretty much everybody breathes, and the action is nonstop. Unfortunately it's also kind of incoherent and a little short, or I would rate it higher. On the whole I liked the tag match at Halloween Havoc more but this is still a pretty great little brawl and another example of why Doom is a severely underrated team historically."
zzzorf wrote on 08.08.2015:
[8.0] "This match was a great little brawl, with action from beginning to end. What affected it though (and really the whole show did) was the match was too short. I could have gone for at least another five minutes of action which would have seen the match get a better rating."
