[6.0] "Slow at times due to rest holds and other things you would expect in a classic match, but all in all a decent match. Yuta controlled slightly more of the match, not many spectacular spots but the finish was good. The segment afterwards with Moxley and Yuta was really cool."

[6.0] "It wasn't a complete bore as a few viewers claim, but it was more of a different version of Cope from the usual hot-headed, fiery pattern. Because of Yuta's way of wrestling, Cope had to resort to this pattern and it was a mild success to my eyes. While he took a bit longer to get a hold of it, it was a nice back-and-forth battle that fitted Cope's story to take down Death Riders like a perfect glove. If anything didn't prove that, the post-match altercation certainly did so. 3 out of 5 stars!"

[7.0] "A decent match between these two individuals. Adam Copeland gets another victory before Revolution as he defeats Wheeler Yuta, and after the match, gave him a nice gesture of respect. Jon Moxley came out in shock after seeing what Wheeler Yuta did. Wheeler Yuta walked away from Jon Moxley. This match, and the match segment, was solid stuff. Now Jon Moxley this Sunday will be all alone as Adam Copeland won't have the Death Riders trying to sabotage his chances of being AEW World Champion."

[8.0] "An underrated match, Cope worked in a rather pretentious, technical style, but it wasn't a cringe like in his match against Pentagon, it fit the narrative perfectly and looked like using experience that allowed him to achieve great results within the framework of the current feud. I liked the first half more than the second, but it's a cool match (****)."

[9.0] "I really liked the story they told with this one. Cope has been taking out all of Mox's Death Riders, one by one, with Con-Chair-Tos to write them off for Revolution, but, with Wheeler Yuta, he went with a different approach. He seems to believe Yuta's beliefs are still malleable, and therefore, he instead gives him a very honorable, technical bout, never taking a cheap shot, before eventually winning with a spear counter to Yuta's rebound German Suplex setup. After, the handshake, which bewilders Yuta, seemingly shaking him to his core, paired with Mox's confrontation of Yuta, and Yuta finally standing up for himself, really made this whole match great for me."

[6.0] "This was well...okay? I don't know how to rate Wheeler Yuta matches anymore, he's not wrestling the same he was in 2022. Maybe the injury he had made him really end up being fucked, but I can't honestly believe to that. This was interessesting, but nothing else. The finisher was sick as well, pretty well executed"

[6.0] "Decent little match which was maybe the least heated on the show but delivered well. Cope looked fine, and gave Wheeler enough offense. The finish was nice, a couple of nearfalls were too. Mostly helped by a great crowd, it was okay. But the coolest thing about it I thought is the way Cope eliminated Yuta from the equation at Revolution."

[4.0] "You wouldn't think there's a guy who's been wrestling at the top level for more than 25 years in the ring here because boy oh boy this was bad. Copeland is still capable physically but he makes that work against him not for him, he tries to do too much and neither him nor what he's doing is electric enough to achieve that. It's one thing if you're spamming high flying moves as that can work but to spam holds is just not it. The layout of this match was not coherent and all the choices they made was extremely dumb considering the build. Yuta was instructed to make sure Cope doesn't go to Revolution and within the first minute he went for a roll up and Cope the who said he wants to take out the Death Riders one by one countered into another roll up and then followed that by a rest hold? as the babyface? To make things worse, Cope decided to spare Yuta after the match because of reasons. This was a complete waste of time and kinda derailed the show momentum wise, crowd was dead during it too."

[6.0] "The match was solid. I think Cope has a formula that is gonna put a ceiling on his match quality. They both did a good job though."
