[5.0] "One real highlight match in Slater vs. Alexander for the X-Title, and a whole lot of average-to-decent stuff. Trick vs Moose was OK for a Trick Williams main event, but the result wasn't in doubt as the belt isn't going to be changing hands until Bound for Glory (or failing that, a major NXT event). The most noteworthy news item was Sami Callihan having his retirement match against Santana, which was just OK, but hopefully Callihan will be able to get well. A lot of TNA seems to very much be in a holding pattern in general in the face of the NXT "partnership, " and there wasn't much here to shake the feeling of it being nothing more than a filler show."
[6.0] "X-Division once again leading the charge for TNA (some things never change I guess). Emergence was an improvement on Slammiversary but TNA's big shows still feel like you are leaving the restaurant hungry with 8 match cards but only 1 or 2 matches hitting the brief."
[5.0] "This show was alright. The matches were passable (with one or two good ones), but nothing that I'd recommend. The production was fine, but not as crispy as Slammiversary. I did appreciate the slow motion replays, they looked very good. Quite a few finishes and backstage segments were essentially there to progress storylines, so this felt like a long episode of Impact. It's still better than most TNA+ specials this year, but I think that's more an indictment of how TNA has been going through the motions outside of the big 4 PPVs and NXT shows."
[7.0] "Started really well with the opening match which might be one of the best TNA matches of the year but it sadly went downhill for the rest of the show before picking up again at the main event."
[6.0] "TNA PPV used to be must see shows, now its feels like the brand has been neutered where now the PPV will have 1 or 2 good matches and everything else is just skippable. This is where TNA is right now with really just the openning match being worth watching with everything else either just being fine or just bad"
[6.0] "Decent TNA outing by TNA's 2025 standard. They continue to build these cards with slop in the middle instead of spreading out their reliably good matches. I really do feel if they put Ali's match in the middle instead of second, I would have enjoyed this more."
[9.0] "Very good show from start to finish. No bad matches. No match worse than "solid and entertaining". No one protects lesser talent like TNA so the less-experienced and capable NXT stars were able to all look competitive and competent in with the better TNA stars and the homegrown matches were all at least "very good". No great 5 star match but a lot of 3s and 4s."
[5.0] "Not the best TNA show. Alot of it felt like filler. The WWE influence wasnt so strong on this card with only 2 matches involving WWE wrestlers. The Hardys vs The Rascalz had some great sequnces in their match. Yei Ying Lee resigning her contract in the ring was kind of a good moment and the match itself was pretty good too. I kinda hope more companies do that in the future. Sami Callihan's retirement was scuffed and felt anticlimactic, kinda hope he gets one last match somehwere else. The mainevent was quite solid. In my opinion Trick beating Moose in his hometown just makes him a bigger heel atleast in my eyes so thats a plus. I wasnt feeling his run originally but now im digging it abit. Overall it's not a bad show but it's not really a must watch, the biggest thing here was Sami's retirement but somthing was off about it for me."
[5.0] "Emergence was an event in the average range and mostly predictable. A typical filler PPV. The best match was Slater vs. Alexander. I believe Sami Callihan botched his retirement with the kick out at three."
