[6.0] "These Blue justice shows tend to no have as much to them but felt like the beginning and end of the show left me feeling good. Mostly skippable unless you really care for NJPW"

[5.0] "[5.2] NJPW's Blue Justice XVII ends up being one of those tag filler cards where nothing important really happens. We do have some storylines here and there. The United Empire vs. Unbound Co. story is a bit interesting and they are building up Jake Lee as a challenger for Yota Tsuji. He just needs some big wins. Main event was lukewarm at best and continuted the Wolf vs. HOT feud going on. Some young lion matches and some lower card talent gets some showtime too. Overall, Blue Justice was a generally average show with no consequences."

[6.0] "As to be expected of cards comprised of tag bouts that prominently feature both Young Lions and the Dad Squad throughout, this was not essential viewing; if the fifth match on the card still has trainees in it, the company's not putting on their A game. There was nothing objectionable but there was nothing warranting a rewatch either. Middle of the road, acceptable professional wrestling all around. This was the boys gearing back up again after taking two weeks off to rest."

[6.0] "This is a very standard show with every match doing enough to be passable but nothing really standing out. Well, Taichi looked good. Oh, Jag tossed Matsumoto around and hit him with a nasty DVD after the latter fucked up a transition. Aaron Wolf goes back to looking good. Yuji Nagata gets his (many bunches of) flowers. Ah, one more thing. Tana's got short hair! Fuck! He suits it. That man can get away with a lot in the styling department, I wish I could too. ***."
