[8.0] "Great hard hitting match. Lots of heavy strikes from Kevin Blackwood, Adam Priest still working limbs to the bone if given the opportunity. I guess the only thing I didn't exactly like was the finish. Felt a bit of a rush to end it, especially after that nasty driver to the ring apron EDGE and Priest simply got up and was instantly back in the ring. That was pretty lame."
[7.0] "Great work between two of the better technicians on the US indies currently, really crisp action with some stiff strikes thrown in there. Adam Priest is really an excellent heel, he worked the leg of Blackwood brilliantly and it was sold well too. Priest got the win with a brutal Single Leg Boston Crab, and this was really excellent, a really exciting and exhilarating bout, only flawed by the lack of time it had allotted, I would love to see a rematch with a longer time limit."
[8.0] "This was cracking. Pretty sure this is the first time I have seen Adam Priest and I am immediately questioning why he does not have a contract with a TV promotion. I will always adore a man who can do a good chop block and Priest can do a cracking one. They both played to what they are good at here and it worked really well."
[8.0] "This match kicks ass, this is the most real graps indie match to ever real graps indie. Being enthralled with a match n watching both guys gear just give in added so much to it."
[9.0] "Would it be crazy to say that this is the indie match of the year? The little problems I have with both guys generally don't factor in here. The focus of Priest and the striking of Blackwood take over, and you get this tight-knit contest full of gross bumps, and the best kind of back-and-forth action. Blackwood sells that knee well, and Priest never seems to miss a moment to heel it up. 4.5 Stars."
[6.0] "Das war echt erstaunlich gut, grade auch für die gar nicht so lange Zeit. Ich bin nicht der größte Priest-Fan, obwohl der schon echt gut im Ring ist. Blackwood scheint aber wieder einen Zahn zuegelegt zu haben, tolle Intensität und auch eine gute Chemie zwischen beiden hier"
[9.0] "This was a great display of both wrestlers' strength to create an excellent contest that didn't slow down for the get-go. Balckwood is white hot off recent run in West Coast and his first win in DPW, has some amazing kick offense at the start and pivoted to other offense after leg getting worked on, DVD on the apron was gnarly, real good comeback; Adam Priest on the other hand really shows his no nonsense style with his very snug leg work. tope suicida chop block and pounce chop block is just spetacular. leg-cradle piledriver, single leg crab, fuck yeah. Amazing match."
[8.0] "Adam Priest continues to prove to me that he is a hidden gem in the world of pro wrestling. He and Kevin Blackwood presented a really well told story with Priest working over Blackwood's leg, which led to the inevitable finish of Priest hitting an awesome looking chop block & tapping Blackwood out with a Single Leg Crab. That apron DVD spot was pretty scary to watch though. Great match, I love the work of both these men."
[8.0] "This was awesome. Adam Priest is what indy pro wrestling should be, such a rare breed of wrestler that's smart and vicious. Blackwood here sold his leg well and had some gross spots as well, probably the best performance I've seen from him. ****"
[8.0] "Another solid as hell Adam Priest undercard match in Deadlock. I know he has been doing ROH shots, so he is obviously being noticed. Hopefully it does not interfere with his tremendous indie work."
[8.0] "Blackwood grown to be very comfortable in his own skin and his in-ring has noticeably improved as a result, while Priest continues to be a tremendous shitstain heel that would certainly called the best in the world by some Twitter sickos in mid-late 2010's or so - this guy just gets it. Speaking of 'what other people would say' - last few minutes would rile up some fans into saying nasty shit, but to me they were tremendous, Priest had the only chance to catch Blackwood after getting destroyed by that DVD on the apron, and he used it to perfection."
[7.0] "This was a pretty solid match. Priest was a great dickish heel and the single leg crab he won with here was probably the most brutal version of that move I've seen someone use."
[8.0] "Blackwood started this match with a great shine and showing off really good striking before he was cut off with an absolute bonkers tope suicida to the knee in the corner. Adam priest then did some great limb work for heat. Blackwood made a comeback with some great striking and a German before being cut off by a chop to the knee and a single leg crab transitioned to an stf. He comes back with a flying knee and tries to go for the double stomp but cant due to his knee. Blackwood hits a gnarly Death Valley driver on the apron. Blackwood went for the stomp again but missed and got caught in a single leg Boston crab that looked disgusting and taps out. In a great finishing sequence. Both men brawl after the match after a slap to the face by priest. Overall great match and textbook baby face and heel work."
