[6.0] "It's an okay episode of Raw, but it's one of those shows where the main event picture just looks dull as well as Backlash having the same problem as No Way Out where instead of a title match, it's a standard 6-man tag match with Nash obviously positioned as the next contender. The tag title match is good if not a little too long and I like seeing The Hurricane still mixing it up with the main eventers and going over Ric Flair to position Booker T to getting a rematch with Triple H next week. It just looked too obvious he would lose after the Wrestlemania disappointment. Eric Bischoff's heel work is still top tier where he uses his recent firing of Stone Cold to do an infomercial style promo. The rest of the show is dull with the only other stand out moment being 'The Great Debate' which is unintentionally hilarious thanks to Scott Stiener's nonsensical pro-war promo. The WWE's pro-war stance is completely tone deaf and alienating a lot of it's audience by insulting them!"
[5.0] "The main of this show was fun even if a bit short and the opener was decent, but I can't quite agree with the inmates that rated this as satisfactory as the one match that got enough time was a snore fest, and the Iraq War segment was super cringe and has not aged well (it was bad back then, and now it's just plain gross and carniesque.) I was glad that they actually let the women wrestle a match even if it was a bit sloppy and short. These poor ladies got put through the worst of Vince McMahon's creepy ass writing in these days, so them actually having a regular match was a pleasant surprise. Overall it could have been a lot wore and at least there was a fair amount of actually wrestling, but that's such a pathetic compliment for a wrestling show so it's just a 5/10 in my book."
[6.0] "The opening segment was good, having Nash pit against his two friends Triple H & Shawn Michaels is also a nice story to build upon. I thought all of the matches that got a decent amount of time were solid. Rocks interview via satellite was good stuff. They ended the show with a big brawl for the six-man tag at Backlash, this was a solid show"
