[4.0] "Dont know why this was a 2v2 mixed match and not a 1v1 match maybe they wanted to protect Roode but with the cost of giving us a boring mach with a finish that sucked giving Sharmell the pin (The only one who wasnt a wrestler) at least the post match segment was unintentionally funny with Sharmell selling Roode punching here like a pro"

[5.0] "Nice little match. They didn't throw any strikes which would normally be a bad thing, but it's okay because they never sat in holds and did nothing, they were always working. I was very surprised to see Ni Hao not throw any kicks, instead he tried to play Naito at his own game. There's a couple nice showcases of strength as both guys do some deadlift slams. Just a very competently worked 8 minute grappling affair that never turns the heat up, but remains solid throughout. Nice finish too. (2.75*)"

[5.0] "Fine match with Jay mostly dominating. It didn't really feel like a main event, though. I would have swapped this with Solo/Cassidy bout. This just meant it was rather flat way to end the show."

[6.0] "LA KNIGHT YEAH! the match was just decent but the result was a hundred percent right and now the rematch against AJ Styles will be a banger next week."

[10.0] "All I wanted from this match's finish was the most overbooked mess you could think of. Not only was the wrestling end of the match great, but you had the most glorious 5 minutes you could possibly want. On top of that, Roman finally got his revenge on Seth for what he did to The Shield 10 years ago. Even though he had to have known it would cost him his title, it was beautiful storytelling. Seth sacrificed his friends for a title and then on this night, he sacrificed his title for his friends. Roman ended up sacrificing his title for revenge."

[8.0] "finally we will have Cody Rhodes vs AJ Styles in a banger and this triple threat match was incredible to build the Backlash fight. the Styles Clash is one of my favorite moves and he looked very smooth on the bout and I hope KO gets a chance too"

[8.0] "Really good stuff. Lot of fun spots that didn't seem forced but flowed well with each other. Rey Mysterio ate some hard bumps. Kevin Owens was in peak form. The Styles Clash off the top was awesome. Great way to close the show. AJ winning was the right call, as he was due for a victory and he gets to have a rematch with LA Knight."

[10.0] "Had to give this a perfect score. Storytelling, in-ring chemistry, the wrestling, and the results - everything was what it should be. I have been so invested in the Damage CTRL story since there were teases of their split from Bayley. honestly it was what last year's bloodline story was and I loved that. But not just that, Iyo and Bayley had amazing chemistry and when Iyo landed on her feet after one of Bayley's Rose Plant attempts...I marked out so hard for that. Just perfect and it proves that if this was the night 1 main event, nobody would've left the arena disappointed. But the fact it was the co-main event on night two really tells you just how highly Triple H saw their potential as a match. Just bravo. One of my favorite matches of all time."

[7.0] "why someone gave 2.0 to this match? I think it was pretty good, almost a 8, and Nemeth/Ziggler is doing a wonderful job on NJPW and TNA. For a casual fan Ishii is one of my favorites and he is so easy to watch. He even did a zig zag and I laughed a lot."

[6.0] "I still sometimes have a hard time connecting with Naomi's in-ring style. Sometimes it seems she's just being methodical, but, like tonight, sometimes it seems like she's a step off from her opponent. It's cool how over Tiffany Stratton is."

[9.0] "Jack Perry's really good at taking advantage of the situation and using it build his heel presence. His response to the "you got choked out" chants was especially good. I think Shota's slowly showing more and more that he does indeed have what it takes to be the future ace of the company. Give him another year or two, and the belt will be on him and he'll be putting on classics on a regular basis. Assuming they book him well."

[8.0] "Such an entertaining match. At times, it felt like Randy and Kevin were just spamming special moves on Logan."

[6.0] "These talented lads didn't have the best chemistry with each other on this occasion. Still, there were some fun moments and LA Knight deserves the win."

[6.0] "very stupid match. Jungle Boy was better on the ring in AEW and the only thing he did there was work the crowd. I admit that it was funny but in terms of fighting the match was just mi-mi-mid. I love when wrestlers have fun with the crowd and create an atmosphere but the ring action will always be the most important thing and on this match specifically I was not impressed by anything they did, just the reversed hurricanrana spot was cool and after the match Perry turned face for no reason and screwed everything up"

[7.0] "For LA Knight's first mania match, this was a solid effort. The two clearly have great in-ring chemistry and I just felt that they loathe each other. AJ always delivers in whatever match he is given and LA proved to everyone that he belongs on the big stage."

[4.0] "I'm not sure if this was supposed to be a blow off or not. If it was, it was rather disappointing end to the feud. If it wasn't, I'm not sure what is left for Angelo to do as it was a bit of a squash. Whatever might be happening next, I found this match a bit dull."

[10.0] "unfortunately a short title reign for Naito but the matches were underdelivering. Jon however is more capable of putting bangers with anyone including the young lions and I hope he gets to be a full timer for new japan until he loses the belt"

[9.0] "This was a fun, if not stressful match. Rock shocked us all and actually showed he could still go. It was limited but I found his performance in this match amazing and him threating the ref if he counted him out was hilarious. Overall, this match delivered on what it needed to and I think that's really all we can say about that."

[5.0] "EVIL's ruse is funny and the wrestling is actually good here. Titan got to showoff his athleticism and cool moves. SHO was good with his character work and the limited offense he did. EVIL interferes with a chair to give SHO the win and bump him up to six points. **1/2"

[10.0] "My motn, possibly for both nights if i'm being honest. This match wasn't the best when it came to the build. It got a few weeks, but the did what they could and like most Gunther matches, this one was another banger. It might even be one of my favorite Sami matches. The set up for the finish with an ole reliable brainbusta was one thing, but the double H-kick (i forget how to spell it forgive me) was perfection! Gunther had one heck of a reign and is easily an easy candidate for money in the bank winner this year."

[6.0] "Most of my points go towards the entrances because oh my god! Those were incredible. The actual wrestling in this match, while fine, didn't really deliver like I hoped it would. But I enjoyed it for what it was. Jade and Bianca looked incredible and Dakota was stunning!"

[7.0] "A fun match to watch with a bunch of guys trying out some new tricks. The dance break in the middle seemed very unnecessary, though."

[1.0] "God what a disappointment of a match. This was one I was looking forward to the most. I've bene invested in the Usos brother blood feud and I felt they were booked rather well, but there's only so many superkick-for-superkick, running butt-for-running-butt, and splash-for-splash exchange one man can take. It was a great idea on paper and I'm happy they got to live out their dream, but as far as matches go, this was easily one of the worst matches for both Jimmy and Jey Uso. Just very disappointing."

[6.0] "AZM was flat out awful here. I mean, she pretty much didn't sell anything until the finish, including umpteen headbutts and a wicked dragon screw. The latter briefly had the commentary team goofily banging on about a leg injury that never actually manifested. All that said, it was still a half decent high-speed bout and a useful showcase for Vaquer's physical dominance **3/4"

[5.0] "As mid as you can get. Nothing special happened. Everyone did what they were supposed to but I can't say with any certainty that it's going to be a match I'll watch back. It was fine. Just fine."

[7.0] "This was incredibly fun. KUSHIDA dominates early with a variety of grappling skills and brutal attacks on Hiromu's arm. Hiromu's selling was great and made all of KUSHIDA's look properly damaging. Their exchanges were also crisp and well-timed, and the fight into the crowd was better than most other brawling we see in wrestling these days. The final few minutes were flawlessly executed. The finish of KUSHIDA catching Hiromu midair with an armbar and Hiromu powerbombing him on the floor for the count-out victory was so good. These two have never missed and never will whenever they're in the ring together. ***3/4"

[8.0] "A great showcase of both brand's tag team division with great spots, hilarious moments from Truth, and in my opinion, it ended with the right people winning. It did feel like they were rushing through some of the spots a bit, but over all I enjoyed this match."

[5.0] "This wasn't too bad. Didn't overstay its welcome but was still pretty bang average for an undercard tag."

[4.0] "Slow and boring but that's kinda par for the course when Gedo's involved nowadays. The others looked fine"

[4.0] "There's really nothing to write home about with this one. It's like a 4-minute match surrounded with stalling and laughs from the wrestlers. Ishimori's brief arm work was good and the ending was a nice twist but there wasn't enough wrestling. This could've been better but it worked for what it was. **"

[2.0] "This wasn't really a match. In the few minutes they were given they did a fine job. This was mainly to build for their match at Castle Attack. Dick Togo interfering while EVIL was dominating Okada was strange and made no sense. Nothing to see here. *1/2"

[8.0] "Great match. It was a nice clash of styles, with some nice moments and moves. Very fun overall. Ishii is always good."

[7.0] "This was slow at times but these two went out of their way to wrestle a really good match in the Tokyo Dome. This was a well worked and fun match with great wrestling throughout and with twists and turns. Dick Togo interfering benefitted the match and the closing stretch was very exciting. ***3/4"

[7.0] "This was actually good. Altough it was messy, it was very entertaining, one of the most fun matches of the night."

[7.0] "Nothing spectacular, but it is still a fun watch. Coming off of TLC 2 just over a month ago, there is no way it would live up to the previous installment of TLC.There are still fun moments such as Jeff Hardy's leg drop through the announe table and the spear Edge gave Jericho off the ladder, which just felt like the iconic WrestleMania spear on a smaller level. My least favorite spot of the mtach was the Walls of Jericho on top of the ladder, as it just looked really tacky in my opinion. With that being said, it is still a good match that I suggest to seek out if you want to."

[7.0] "Awesome. A bloody Jon Moxley toppling Tetsuya Naito for the IWGP title in Chicago in front of over 6000 fans. Hell of a scene, which feels fresh and significant amongst what has been a dull period for New Japan. Good match with a great finishing stretch as Mox hit Naito with death rider after death rider in a desperate attempt to put Naito away once and for all."

[8.0] "Man, Vaquer looked like a monster in this one. It was a very lean match that still had a lot of action."

[6.0] "Solid match where a really energetic Moxley becomes the first guy to hold the top belts in the three largest active companies in the world today. He had the total opposite of boo-boo face lol. I didn't think they were actually going to do it, just seeing how Naito was one of their better domestic draws in Japan. Nevertheless, this feels like a huge deal, and sets up some really interesting possibilities down the line. Genuinely this is decent conclusion to Naito's run, it isn't always about the days. Moxley has a pretty killer blade job here and builds the match pretty well to a convincing finish. Naito taking Moxley's DDT was probably the most memorable part of his output, aside from that I don't think he added anything incredible to the match. I've never really bought the trading finisher to the finish deal with Naito as much as other NJPW mainstays, so it doesn't work quite as well here. I did think Naito was going to retain, so as an upset, this was pretty cool."

[3.0] "Unlike the Hiromu match, this suffered from a different problem but leads to the same result. Matches like these are harder to keep guided, I may have liked it if I was there live, but alas, I'm watching at home and it didn't convey the match very well. I'm happy Eddie got to trot out Homicide, and the future match between Kingston and Kidd should be worthwhile, but this was not."

[3.0] "Probably the worst match on the show. I really can't blame Takahashi if he wants to phone it in against a TNA wrestler in the big 2024, but it just makes me think more and more that he's washed. I don't know really if I can blame Ali for this, he was kind of the third man to the Hiromu and Daryl Jr. show. When the two start actually wrestling the match is a by-gone conclusion for me. Ali gets some decent reactions as he's a native son, but he really has to rely on the fact that he's from Chicago throughout the match to keep him getting some decent reactions (lmao). Ali gets a nice hometown win, it does little for me, though. I probably should've spent my time doing something else."

[7.0] "This was pretty entertaining and made for a pretty landmark moment for Jack. The red hot crowd really makes this match quite the spectacle, but it borders on smarkish chanting later in the match. It felt emblematic of a certain Chicagoan a few months ago in AEW. I'm not sure if it'll stick for Perry outside Chicago, that remains to be seen. Perry plays into it a bit here, using the guillotine choke and teasing the GTS (which eventually makes him lose the match). To me, Perry makes this match something, but Umino definitely brings it down. That man is not a future ace, he's so inconsistent and it really shows here. I wanted Jack to play into the crowd a little bit more, but I can see how that could takeaway from the match itself. The match really slows when Umino's in control, but thankfully when Jack is working on top, the crowd buys into it much more. Great finish that helps out the match. (Not relevant to the rating) One really annoying thing to me was that Jack shook Umino's hand in the post-match, then flipped off the crowd, then fistbumped the crowd on the way out. What the fuck are you doing?"

[] "This match was a four year story told over a five minute span, everything about it was amazing, and it wasnt just a match that capitalized on a story and had ok in ring action, even the ring work was amazing, Kamitani and Utami are two of the best in the world. AphroditE forever"

[7.0] "Really good match. Fierce and intense throughout and wrestled at an excellent pace. Excellent figure four finish with Natsupoi doing a fantastic job selling."

[8.0] "Of course this was going to be an absolute banger, you're putting Matt Riddle and Zack Sabre Jr together to work on a highly technical match! These two looked incredibly good and had the crowd on the palm of their hands, which is quite rare for a match-up like this one. Riddle slowly turning heel throughout the match was just great, and it was great to see that these two never lost their chemistry from the EVOLVE days. Didn't expect ZSJ to win, so that was a nice little surprise there, mate! Also, I'm ultra hyped for Cobb vs ZSJ. ****1/4"

[8.0] "MOTN for me. Vaquer is a beast and AZM really brings her a-game here. I really believe Vaquer as a worlds-conquering badass here, it helps too in an environment with a good sized crowd. There were a few sequences that felt a touch disorganized, but Vaquer plays a very steady hand throughout the match with good cut offs and even better power moves. AZM is a great face and conveys it well here."

[] "A really good match between these two, Mox looked like an absolute badass while toppling Naito donning the crimson mask, it had a slow start, but an absolutely HOT ending that made it well worth it. Overall, 8/10 and 3.75*/5"

[7.0] "A really good tv match which gave both guys a good opportunity to show off their unique moves. Selling was pretty much on point here and the Powerhouse vs highflyer is always a good combo."

[7.0] "It's a 7 for the last 5 minutes because I don't know what the fucc they were doing before that. Playing around with the stuffed animal? I don't think Ali is that great but Hiromu phoning it in thinking he was at some mania weekend indie? This is Shin Nihon Puroresu, WRESTLE!"

[7.0] "I just knew this was going to rule, man. Not really a fan of Jack Perry and I think Shota Umino should improve some aspects of his wresting skills, but man oh man, this was fun from top to bottom. Usually, I despise these zany antics involving CM Punk or anyone with WWE (Simply because it's a cheap pop), but Jungle Boy using the Guillotine Choke, High Knee Strike and attempting the Go To Sleep was just pure gold. Honestly my favorite match of the night. ****"

[4.0] "It's your standard Suzuki in America affair, with a bit more reinvigorating brawling on the outside. The charm actually lasted a bit longer than most Suzuki matches in the U.S. indies. It doesn't overstay its welcome and gets the job done with Ren getting a flash win. It was fine watching during the live show but no need to return to this one."

[7.0] "This was very cool and entertaining to watch. I'm not gonna lie, I wasn't expecting much from this, since NJPW is not known for giving proper time to women's wrestling, and in eleven minutes, AZM and Stephanie Vaquer delivered and we ate good. Full of good looking sequences and counters, well-timed spots and a great finish. I thought Stephanie was going to work on AZM's leg a bit more, but apart from the Dragon Screw on the corner, nothing ever happened. Good match. ***3/4"

[6.0] "This was a fun match for what it was... The Nasty Boys battle their former manager's team in The Faces of Fear. The Faces of Fear rightly get the win as I think they were an underrated team."

[10.0] "A few matches have shocked me and put a smile on my face as big as this one. Everything is amazing and memorable about this match and it was as good as it could have been considering Sting is a 60 year old man, again 60 YEARS OLD. Personally the glass spot is one of my favorites ever and Darby has all the potential in the world if he somehow manages to not injure himself with the crazy stuff he does all the time."

[9.0] "OH MY GOD, This shit was awesome. Well worth the wait. This was a "Preview" tag for the MOTYC between Hash and Big Ree, and they came out here and delivered a Joshi TAG MOTYC. The chemistry between these 4 was great as they wanted to put on a spectacular match and they delivered. The ending stretch and the great beginning portion of the match were amazing."

[10.0] "I knew that Ospreay was one of the best wrestlers of our generation but this guy I just watched for the first time too. If this was somewhat shorter, because it didn't need to be that long, it would easily be in my top 5 matches of all time."

[5.0] "I like Ninja Mack's creativity and his team with Alejandro, but I thought this started to weird and slow with them teaming up on Alpha Wolf."

[10.0] "Not as amazing as I thought it would be, but since I expected this to be one of the best matches of all time, I can't say I am dissapointed with what we got. Two of the best wrestlers of our times going at it and making Ospreay's debut one to remember."

[6.0] "A street fight ending in a no contest is a bit silly but at least it wasn't a DQ? This was good though, even with the task of following up a bloody and intense opener. D-Von using a fan's chair was funny. The Death Sentence with a trashcan lid was teased then cut off but at least we got a 3D. (***1/4)"

[5.0] "The match was fine. Jimmy Graffiti, aka Jimmy De; Rey of the Heavenly Bodies, didn't do much to elevate himself. There wasn't much happening here, but it wasn't painful to watch, either."

[] "first match seeing masada and i was really impressed with his selling and that arm drag/flatliner was something else i loved this match"

[10.0] "In my top 10 matches of all time. This match is as insane as everyone says. I loved it from start to finish. So many iconic spots and I personally was a big fan of how dangerous and bloody it was. Best texas death match ever."

[10.0] "Gunther/Walter proving once again why he is my favorite wrestler of all time, by the time I get to all his top matches I am afraid by the amount of 10s he will get. Darby is one of my favorites in AEW and the way he beat Walter was actually believable. Spectacular match."

[7.0] "A baseline decent Orange Cassidy match with Reynolds who is a baseline decent but not spectacular opponent. Silver doing good heeling outside the ring. Pretty much what one would expect."

[10.0] "In my top 10 matches of all time. Everything great about their previous matches is all in this one. Other than being a bit sloppy, this was perfect. Emotional, stiff, and so memorable. Their best match and worth all the hype."

[3.0] "This match was bizarre because it didn't make Oiwa look good at all - he was a total passenger that in the end got his ass whooped. He looked totally lost here almost right from the get go, so Kenoh was playing with his prey as much as he wanted."

[10.0] "For me this is a similar case to the Gabe Kidd vs Henare match where I know nothing about these wrestlers but the wrestling is some of the best that I have seen. These two are some talented motherfuckers."

[6.0] "Solid match between this two. As the inmate before me said, Kazarian looks a step above most of the wrestlers on this shows. Lost did a good job with some counters, for example countering a springbaord into a german suplex. But in the end, after scaping a choke, Lost gets pinned by the Wave of the Future."

[10.0] "In my top 20 matches of all time and one of the best triple threat matches I have ever seen. There is literally no reason for a triple threat to have that good of a pace and everything going smoothly. Spots were insane too."

[4.0] "Santos should have won as it would have made his fraction seem stronger especially after the loss at wrestlemania"

[10.0] "Close to a perfect match. My favorite entrance of all time. One of my favorite stories told in ring. Psychology and character work also perfect. The wrestling was great but not as great as Gunther's last year match, so thats why its not a perfect 10."

[10.0] "Had two wishes for this match. For this to be a joshi wrestling type of match and Bayley to show what she can really do. Not only did my wishes come true but it exceeded my expectations. One of the best women's wrestling matches I have seen."

[10.0] "(*****) Saying that this is not as good as the first one which was a perfect match is not a bad thing at all. Close to a perfect match with Ospreay taking the lead this time, really really good heel work and one of the best and most brutal last minutes in wrestling."

[8.0] "[3.75/5.00]: Man, this was hands down the best thing we saw all night, but come on, with those folks involved, no surprise there. They pulled off some pretty cool stuff in there, but let's be real, Styles was the only one who made sense as the winner. Styles going up against Knight again for the title shot sounds like the way to go. Wouldn't shock me if Styles moves forward from here."

[10.0] "(*****) This was fucking amazing. The durability that these two have is inhuman, I really can't comprehend how they lasted for so long. Definitely one of my favorite wreslting matches and my favorite women's wrestling match of all time."

[5.0] "[2.50/5.00]: They had to set Naomi up for her title shot with a win, and while facing Stratton might not have been my first choice, it turned out okay. The match was decent, but the highlight was definitely seeing the crowd give Bayley such a warm welcome."

[6.0] "Average match here with a decent story including Rock n Rave infection manager Christty Hemme and recently rebranded Shelly Martinez, The match did his purpose of being a fun opener including an awesome final with Hernandez almost killing Jimmy Rave"

[6.0] "[3.00/5.00]: These three wrestlers are totally different. Lashley's all about raw power, Escobar's all about those high-flying moves, and Knight as the versatile entertainer. Together, they brought a variety of styles to the match. The action was solid, but maybe they crammed in a bit too much. With so many run-ins, it kind of made the match feel less important, especially with something on the line."

[8.0] "I mostly skip TV matches, but look at the talent in this one. I knew they have less time to work with, bit damn did they make the most out of it. Everyone hit their best hits and kept the pace consistently high throughout. Rey looked amazing and easily was the MVP here, even delivering the iconic monkey flip to hurricarana callback from Styles-Joe-Daniels. Just top tier stuff from top tier guys. Special mention to the finish, because that was NUTS."

[5.0] "Adam Pearce is the best heel of the company. I like his heel work on the mic and attacking Disco after the dance contest. Also through the match he did some cool heel antics alongside his manager. He wins after a low blow and a piledriver. His character is my favorite so far in PWG, because it's a good heel. Really enjoy his classic heel work and character. Disco was fine, did some cool moves, but mostly it was a match to get Pearce over."

[8.0] "I guess the idea of this 'Monday Magic' concept is to create a unique, fresh atmosphere to hopefully attract an audience that is stuck in their own bubble of habits, and this match was a perfect opener to get my attention - Luis Mante of all people casually showed up and worked very hard to make this a really fun match. One awkward near-fall aside, this match is a blast to watch and imo is a very good way to showcase either of these four wrestlers to anyone who sees them for the first time. ***3/4"

[8.0] "Zack is one of the "can carry a broom to a three-star match" guys, and, you know what? Riddle is actually a pretty decent partner to go with. People forget that beyond the weed jokes, Matt is no slouch as a technical guy."

[9.0] "Glad they're going the route of "use Mox to get the Musketeers/Young Lions over". It's about the long game, guys; Shooter and the lads need a few more reps before they can duke it out for the position of Ace of the new generation. Probably could've done with five extra minutes, but I'm not begrudging the pinfall after 20 because it was already a really good match."

[9.0] "Moxley is finally the IWGP Heavyweight Champ! Didn't expect him to win, but I had high hopes throughout the match. Apparently, Naito didn't bring his A game, he didn't look as good as always. The match was still very entertaining, gritty from bell to bell. Naito's kickout after 1 was unnecessary and very Indie thing to do though"

[5.0] "What a disappointment, really. Could've been something much better, was just a spin-the-wheels brawl until Resurgence next month. Alas."

[10.0] "Probably the most highly anticipated match on the card once the show was announced and Perry appeared, and by god, it didn't disappoint. A real coming-of-age performance by Perry, who has definitely shaken off the Jungle Boy curse and proven himself to be worthy of the accolade of one of the Four Pillars. Perry used the nuclear heat from being, well, the man who got Punk fired in Punk's home town, to great advantage - god, the GTS sport was amazing - and walked out a complete badass. And y'all thought the decision to air the All In footage was a mistake. Come Dynasty, or Double or Nothing at the latest, Jack is gonna hit like crack."

[6.0] "Definitely the best match of Naito's reign with a shock ending. They tell a decent story but it's still nothing that great. Got off to a much better start than Naito's prior IWGP Title matches this year which is the main big point in its favour, but it's still just good, nothing special or particularly great."

[6.0] "This was a tiny bit better than your run-of-the-mill modern lucha match because for once there was a tangible, entertaining story in amongst all the action. People will perform mental gymnastics to explain how the 50/50 bomb trades and high spots we get in most lucha matches are actually the peak of theatrical storytelling, but I struggle finding those matches as anything more than just mindless but athletic spectacle. This match, however, had the interesting booking where the two teams were both made up of one heel and one babyface. As expected, we got "CAN THEY COEXIST" drama, but I actually somewhat enjoyed how that story came out in a bunch of different moments where the teams would have internal tensions because of their differing philosophies and then manage to actually put them aside for the sake of the win, and then they both combusted at the very end as the heels went for their typical heel shenanigans for the sake of pure chaos. Aside from that story, this was your generic modern CMLL match with a lot of flips, dives, and bombs, with the in-between work mostly being pretty bland apart from a few fun periods of aggressive beatdown work. The multi-man spots and 2-vs-2 mirrored sequences never looked that good in terms of set-ups because of how clearly cooperative all 4 guys always were, though their end-product moves usually looked pretty good. The faster-paced sequences were fun, albeit still suffering from the same over-choreographing limitations. The 1-vs-1 interactions at the end between Rocky and Atlantis were good, as Rocky was nicely aggressive in his control work and Atlantis had good energy in his brief comeback before it was cut of by Rocky and Soberano uniting to give Rocky's team the win. Again, the action was nothing special, but the antics of the babyfaces and heels constantly clashing despite being on the same teams added a tiny bit of extra interest. Maybe if there were a few cooler spots/sequences then this would've reached truly good territory. ***"

[8.0] "Really good main event that was better than Naito's Sakura Genesis match against Tsuji last week, it took a while to get going but the crowd was hot and the last few minutes were phenomenal so we never really had time to get bored despite the match lasting twenty minutes. Many won't like the decision because an AEW wrestler has just won the IWGP World Heavyweight belt, but come on guys, this is Jon f'n Moxley. He's done a lot for NJPW and deserved this big moment. An excellent match and a great moment that concludes a very good wrestling show."

[6.0] "This is the best match so far. Scorpio Sky did a great job working on Joey Ryan's neck with some submissions and cool moves. Also, he is outwrestling Ryan for most part of the match. He has a pretty decent dropkick. The ending came out of nowhere. Scorpio Sky locks a tarantula triangle choke, but Ryan scapes, gets to the top rope and hits a neckbreaker to take the win."

[6.0] "This was quite enjoyable, though I thought it was missing something. Perhaps it was the lack of Jericho's injured arm playing a role in influencing Orton's eventual victory, especially considering much of the middle part of the match was spent by Randy working over it after Batista's interference allows him to get the advantage. Oh, and the finish was a little flat. Nevertheless, the action was technically sound and the crowd was into it, particularly toward the end when Y2J had Orton locked in the Walls. Though that is not too surprising considering this RAW emanated from Winnipeg. ***"

[7.0] "This was a pretty good match between two heel teams. I thought the beginning with the ring announcer was amusing, and the wrestling was solid once they got going. I was surprised to find it was under 20 minutes, because it felt very long to me. That's probably not a great sign, and may just be because it wasn't quite at the level of some of the previous bouts on the card and felt like a slightly strange choice to main event, but I did still enjoy the match overall. I assume this must have been the debut of the Meltzer Driver based on how commentary reacted, and it seems like a pretty random match to break out such a big move? Entertaining match, even if it isn't perfect."

[7.0] "Come on guys, this match was actually a lot of fun. The best Nemeth match since his release from WWE in my opinion, it could perhaps have been a little longer with even more interesting sequences, but the overall result was more than satisfactory. Seeing these two guys face each other in a ring in 2024 is already something huge so I personally enjoyed it, I thought they had a good connection together and obviously it was a lot of fun. Seeing Ishii do a Zig-Zag was not on my bingo card this year."

[8.0] "My personal match of the night without a shadow of a doubt, I was completely impressed by the action from start to finish, an absolutely fantastic thirteen-minute sprint with some gorgeous wrestling as you'd expect with two fantastic workers such as Riddle & Sabre. They've obviously had much better matches in the past in PWG & EVOLVE, but the fact remains that they've always had an excellent chemistry and they haven't lost it, even years later. Awesome counters, transitions, strikes, it was everything it should have been with a shocking result. Great stuff."

[8.0] "8 for the entire presentation, including the phenomenal entrances and post-match. The match itself was great fun and the crowd were well into it... but it wasn't a lot more than a finisher spamfest that for me was a bit OTT. I did like how it wasn't too long - it makes sense considering Seth, freshly back from injury, wrestled 45 minutes just last night. However, they got there in the end and everything from Drew's win to the Priest cash in and shots of a beaten McIntyre with Punk grinning in the background was incredible. An absolute home run in every sense of the word."

[8.0] "I can understand why this match would be polarizing. Personally, I am fine with light hearted matches of this style when they take place in an appropriate setting, which is exactly what PWG is. I would not be thrilled if I saw something like this in the middle of a mainstream televised wrestling event, but a small indy with a party atmosphere like PWG? There's a time and a place for everything. While it is not my favourite style of wrestling regardless of where it takes place, I do think this is a good example of a 'silly' match done well. It is full of crowd popping references, plays off the audience well, and still contains a lot of impressive athleticism. It's probably not really for me, but I can appreciate it for what it is, and fans of this style are going to love it."

[6.0] "This match is going to be very divisive and I don't think it's going to be much appreciated, but I have to admit I found it a lot of fun from start to finish, nothing incredible but I was thoroughly entertained by these guys who all went to war with each other to my great delight. I think we have to take the match as it is, as part of the Kingston/Kidd rivalry, and I enjoyed a few things including seeing Homicide. A little underwhelming at times, I'll admit. Kingston/Kidd LMS next month should be way better."

[7.0] "People seem hard on this match because it wasn't the wrestling masterclass they were perhaps expecting, and I admit I was expecting something better too, but personally I had a good time watching it. I'm biased because I'm a Mustafa Ali fan, but it makes me super happy to see him do his thing independently of the others and to see him wrestle so well with Hiromu. The action was good and Daryl's involvement was well brought in, I thought it was very fun."

[8.0] "Really good stuff right here, and I know a lot of people will talk about the atmosphere because of course it's Jack Perry in Chicago and obviously he was going to make some things for obvious reasons, and he did it well, but it's also worth pointing out how well worked it was in the ring too. Good wrestling, good action, with Umino taking full advantage of Perry's heat to shine. This match was indeed a real experience."

[7.0] "A good fun multi-man tag match right here with action everywhere, very cool spots and just good wrestlers doing good wrestling together. Nothing transcendent or crazy that will make you jump out of your chair, but everything was very solid from start to finish with good pace and the best possible result. Happy for TMDK. And the post-match angle with WCWC & Lawlor was interesting."

[8.0] "Stephanie Vaquer has such a great level of dominance about her that really came through here and she spent a lot of the match just beating AZM down. However, AZM got ample opportunities to show how great she is at such a young age she is having matches way above her age (it's probably because she's already a 10 year veteran of the busienss) and she shows why she's the Queen of High Speed but it just wasn't enough for Vaquer. Both come out of this looking great."
