[6.0] "Bizarre from a booking point of view but bell to bell, this is another decent entry to their series. Rude is the best Warrior opponent, consistently leading him to watchable matches that delivered without an overreliance on pomp and circumstance. Obviously, they are still Warrior matches but the Rude outings are usually somewhat traditional, with this being no different. That almost always went very poorly for all involved but again, Rude lands the plane without incident here. Not their best match, but a pretty good one nonetheless. **3/4"
[7.0] "Rick Rude was the perfect opponent and always got the best out of the Ultimate Warrior. This match is no exception and this may have not been the best booking, especially with Rude taking on Warrior right after at Summerslam, but I had a good time."
[5.0] "This was one of the weaker Rude/Warrior matches but it was still a pretty decent match. These two always had good chemistry, and Rude knew how to elevate Warrior. While I don't get running this so close to SummerSlam it is cool these two went at it on free tv. Rude comes pretty close to winning the big one here."
[6.0] "These two always had good chemistry, and it makes it even better that Rude hated him in real life, because he made him look so good. Decent match, but not spectacular."
[6.0] "Rude is always pretty good at dragging something fun out of Warrior. There was a bizarre moment where the ref checked if Warrior was conscious during a sleeper by doing the usual arm drop spot with his leg instead. Very weird. It was also strange that they didn't call for a DQ off Heenan's blatant interference. Still, I thought this was enjoyable and above Warrior's usual standard."
[5.0] "16/07/90 Saturday Night's Main Event WWF. Rick Rude nearly captures the big one. These matches were always tough for me to watch as a kid, as they were my 2 favourite singles wrestlers. Rick Rude is brilliant as always, he elevates this match with his in ring ability. Rude and Warrior seemed to click, they had plenty of experience with each other from the territories and Rick made Warrior respect him. The match could of been a solid 6, but the end was poor, Warrior not selling after his comeback was cringy. I'm sure it was a Count out Victory for Warrior not a DQ. Could of been better but a good 5*"
[5.0] "Terrible decision to have these two meet before SummerSlam for the title after trying desperately to build up Rude as a threat, then having Warrior beat him by DQ. The match wasn't horrible but it also didn't do a lot of favors of getting people to buy in."
[6.0] "No reason to do this match so close to SummerSlam, as it erased all the hype for the match. Thankfully, the match was decent, as Rude and Warrior had an oddly impeccable chemistry together to produce a watchable bout at the least of their effort. [**3/4]"
[6.0] "One of Warrior's more energetic matches with his best opponent in Rude who manages to carry him to yet another decent match. Warrior looked like he was going to keel over by the end of it."
[5.0] "This match didn't pull up any trees but the crowd were pretty into it and Rude's selling of the atomic drop will always make me laugh. The ending was obviously crappy and you didn't come away thinking Rude could win the upcoming Summeslam match, but all in all I didn't hate it. **3/4"
[4.0] "I have to agree with what "Mizzle Assault Ant" said in the previous comment, it's weird how they did this match so close to SummerSlam. Anyway, this was easily one of their worst matches together. Not saying it was bad or anything, just... there's nothing to see here. Decent enough but skippable. **"
[4.0] "Occasionally these two actually had good matches, but mostly they just had matches that were at least not terrible, and this is one of those, there's nothing especially good about it but at least they didn't stink up the joint. Amazed WWF gave away their Summerslam main event for free so close to the PPV though."
