[8.0] "These four might have only six minutes and change to work with, but they made every second count and crammed in a lot of stuff. Just balls-to-the-wall action which the crowd ate up. Guido gets to show off his shooting skills by landing a glorious armbar counter on Tajiri. The double team moves these four pulled off were truly spectacular. They even manage to cram in a quick hot tag segment, which sees Whipwreck make a hot tag after laying Mamaluke out with a Whippersnapper. This served as a very moreish appetizer for their more famous tag title match later in the month."
[5.0] "I suppose for a 6 minute match this is OK--the crowd is hot and the match has some nice physicality to it. Unfortunately the short length prevents it from being anything more than your standard TV match."
[6.0] "Recht kurzes aber für die kurze Zeit sehr gutes Match, was heute noch überzeugt und trotzdem auch im damaligen zeitlichen Wrestling-Kontext gesehen werden muss. Non Stop-Aktion ohne Atempause, ein viel besseres Matches kann man in dem Stil in der knappen Zeit wohl nicht zeigen."
[8.0] "The perfect example of a very good match being made great by the excitement of the crowd. Matches like these are why there will NEVER be another ECW. ****"
[10.0] "If there's a perfect 7 minute match, this must be it, and it's proof positive you don't need a ton of time to have a positively world class match. There's scintillating mat work, bone crunching strikes, crowd interaction, and even a dose of psychology, these guys knew they were short on time so they just went all out and it was fantastic. I do not exaggerate when I say Tajiri may have been the best worker in the world at this particular time."
[8.0] "Dieses Match ist so unglaublich gut und eigentlich viel zu kurz. Es ist perfekt in dem, was es sein soll und auch wenn es natürlich kein Fünf Sterne Klassiker ist, ist es auf jeden Fall ein ECW Klassiker und in den Top 10 Matches die es in dieser Liga je gab - einfach noch mal angucken, es ist schön, an so etwas erinnert zu werden (***3/4)."
