Lacey Evans vs. Liv Morgan vs. Raquel Rodriguez vs. Shotzi vs. Sonya Deville vs. Xia Li

[4.0] "Given the talent involved and the actual significance of the match, this is presented in a way that's far too brief and, frankly, too unspectacular. Morgan and Rodriguez pull off a few nice moves outside the ring, but overall, this match barely scrapes past the four-point mark."

[6.0] "One of the best multi-women matches of the year, which is not saying much giving how horrible the majority of these are, but it's a good match mostly because of the fast pace, which makes it entertaining: However, wrestling-wise, a lot of the women featured here lack a lot of abilites. Also, that botched spot on the table, bad selling by Raquel. I don't know if giving the victory to Shotzi was a good decision, but at least it's giving an oportunity to someone new. (** 3/4)"

[6.0] "Such a quick match where the girls showed that they are ready to risk their health, but to go to the title match and of course everyone has their own methods, someone takes a trick, someone has physical data, and someone is just lucky to be in a convenient place at the right moment. A multi-sided match that will clearly find its haters and fans. The norm."

[3.0] "I've criticized AEW's women's division in the past for feeling amateurish, but the Smackdown women right now make that feel like the Kobashi/Misawa feud. What is even happening now. The only two women I like here are Lacey Evans and Xia Li, them getting shoved to the bottom of the card in favor of anyone else here is ridiculous. Watching this match felt like I was watching wrestling school tryouts. Everything looked clunky, and a few of the botches seemed like they were flat out painful. Nothing felt smooth, it's like they were all forcing themselves to do every move. That diving crossbody was just hilarious. *1.5*"

[5.0] "Holy shit, can somebody please help out the Smackdown women? s roster, this was hilarious. Although I? m happy for Shotzi, that table botch was painful to watch. I? m a fan of Liv but I now get the hate."

[6.0] "This was a hot mess of a match. There were good moments, but some moments wrecked the value of this match as a fumble path of creating a new challenge for Rousey. Shotzi is a fresh choice, but there's a lot to prove for her and checking the time in the clock for Survivor Series, it's crammed & she could end up as a fill-in challenger for the champion. Until Shayna steps up to the plate and snatches the title as expected by many, none of the challenges could give a respectful threat to the former UFC stalwart. 3 out of 5 stars!"

[3.0] "I don't know how this even managed to get a mediocre rating on here. This was not good at all. Sloppy and awkward, featuring a comically embarrassing botched spot with a table and a very abrupt finish that was met with dead silence from the crowd. They really need to stop booking these big multi-woman matches to cram everybody on the show - they are rarely good."

[3.0] "God I hate Liv Morgan so much. She is such a mediocre wrestler but now WWE are trying to make her gimmick that she is EXTREME. I hope they will stop trying after this match."

[1.0] "This match was a complete terrible mess. The table botch is one of the worst things I've seen in a match this year. How this has even an average rating is completely ridiculous to me."

[6.0] "A fight that I liked a lot the way it was developed on the ring. Great job by all the participants, very good job. And obviously, congratulations to Shotzi for her well deserved victory. Now let her make good stories to get attention."

[3.0] "Yea, I was originally optimistic for this match since I like 4 of the women here (aka Liv Morgan, Lacey Evans, Sonya Deville, and Raquel Rodriguez); but it ended up being an absolute mess within the last several minutes. There were just too many flaws to ignore here. Liv did her very damn best to make this a fun contest, but the match itself was unfortunately mediocre overall. First off all, this was an 11+ minute match that should've been 6 minutes; especially if we were just going to have an unspectacular finishing sequence and a flat ending after going through 1 commercial break. Second, the botch near the end where Raquel mistimed the catch on Liv (after she attempted a diving Crossbody off the announce table) was unfortunate, and it pretty much deflated the crowd since they desperately wanted to see a table spot for whatever reason. Third, there were just too many awkward moments + pacing + sequences + timing throughout the whole match, which just made it impossible for me to forgive (and that's SAYING something because I tend to be very lenient/forgiving with my wrestling matches if one were to look at my ratings profile). Fourth, the camera refusing to switch angles after the major botch near the end (where Raquel mistimed the catch on Liv, which led to no table spot) made that moment even worse and more awkward since we just saw those 3 women lying there for 20-30+ seconds doing nothing. Fifth, THERE DIDN'T NEED TO BE A TABLE SPOT IN THE FIRST PLACE since you just NEED TO BEAT WHICHEVER WOMAN IS IN THE RING. Sixth, the finish with Shotzi giving Lacey a DDT variant was kinda abrupt, and it ended up being a flat ending. Overall, this match was mediocre, and I'm sure that any combination with Liv + Lacey + Sonya + Raquel + Shotzi + even Xia may end up being way better than this match-up in the future."

[3.0] "Pretty much a mess. The big climax of the match was the botch with the table and then the camera just focusing on them laying around until Shotzi had to win. Why they keep doing these matches when they never land, I do not know."

[3.0] "Almost zero chemistry between everyone here, outrageous table spot botch and and an anti-climatic ending with a DDT ! ?"

[5.0] "All six women just went all out, trying to score a quick victory, but someone was always there to break up the cover. The end came suddenly, as Shotzi pinned Lacey Evans when Morgan, Deville and Rodriguez were incapacitated at ringside. Even Shotzi couldn't believe she won. Average match, a bit sloppy"

[3.0] "These six pack challenges need to go away. It's always people who we haven't been given reasons to care about or to think they are a challenge for the title. It's always the worst kind of mayhem where there's barely rhyme or reason as to how the match is laid out. Doesn't help when you botch the big spot of the match, leaving the crowd dead for 30 seconds (and the ending too)."

[6.0] "Much better than previous 6 ways in the womens division, the botched table spot hurt the match a little but not to bad, Hope Liv is ok as that landing looked brutal! Shotzi winning was. Anoce surprise and her new finish is cool."

[8.0] "This was a car crash in a (mostly) positive way. There were some decent sequences and it was cool to see the women get a decent amount of time. Liv Morgan, aside from the table botch that wasn't her fault, was the highlight of this match, using her fast paced and flashy offense like a springboard codebreaker and a DDT to get the crowd back into it. Xia Li also looked very solid here and got some extended time in control. The finish was very abrupt but Shotzi winning was the right move. She got a decent match out of Ronda last time they met so I have decent expectations for the match. Good overall, but that table spot not going according to plan was a real shame. A good showcase for the women. [***3/4]"
