[6.0] "[3.5*] Very cool match, Called Manders together with Mike D'Vecchio were Carat Gold's biggest discoveries, Manders has an incredible style to watch, his strikes are intense and brutal and I really liked his attack. In this match we had good exchanges between them, I just expected a better ending."
[6.0] "It's not a high bar, but this was the best Roman's match and performance in the tournament so far, but still wasn't anything too memorable for someone who made it all the way to the final. Manders imo had a pretty good run in the tournament, I'm definitely more interested in what's gonna happen next for him because of it."
[8.0] "Its not the best match both of them had all weekend but Roman and manders brought. Some nice wrestling in the beginning. Little character work from manders. The crowd really loves manders and its so awesome to hear. Roman turns up the heat. Manders his an awesome dusty arn combo into eventually a low suicide dive and moonsault! Fight exchange back and worth. I thought manders had it with a lariat and Roman gets him back with one. Finishing sequence was nicely paced. Good stuff."
