[10.0] "The first show I ever watched, I was 6 years old, I remember it like it was yesterday. The rubric on how to do an "I Quit match" with Aries Vs Jacobs, A real world title match between Danielson and McGuinness, and a Main event between 2 of the biggest new stars. you cannot go wrong; a great under-card too."

[8.0] "This was a great show with the the 3 last matches being really must see. Aries and Jacobs delivered a violent I Quit match which I have at ****1/2, Danielson and McGuinness put on one of the best matches ever, like they always do, which I have at 5 stars. And Joe vs Black was a good match, not a great one. The beginning was kinda boring, but the ending stretch bumped my rating to ***3/4."
