I really liked Billy Kidman's selling of the twist of fate and the finish was fantastic. I think the winner was well chosen because Matt Hardy did very well in this feud and I think he deserves to be champion."

[0.0] "I am no wordsmith, but I think this quote sums up my feelings well about this piss poor excuse of a match: "This has got to be, devoid of any creative thought. May god have mercy on your soul, you ruined wrestling." - James "Jizzy Dizzy" Darnell If I had to use my own words, then it was an absolute slog of a match. The superkick exchange was dreadful to watch. They are not singles wrestlers, so please put them back into a tag team, doesn't have to be with each other, just get them away from any singles titles please"

[0.0] "Very deserving of this rating. I don't know how old he is but I'm certain it's old enough to not be cursing like you were left home alone for the first time at 13 years old and drinking Mountain Dew all night. He takes so much away from this matches and offers no insight, doesn't call the moves or if he does he's usually wrong. He was the sole reason I stopped watching GCW until they were put on FITE and got some decent commentary."

[8.0] "You've got Beer Money, you add AJ Styles and obviously the mix was going to make for a very good wrestling match. I wish the crowd had been more involved than that and there was no reason why they shouldn't have been because the three guys worked hard and gave us a damn fun match, full of action with good storytelling too around Roode & Storm. The little moment when they redo their Suplex together gave me chills. The right winner was chosen too, good stuff."

[9.0] "Reigns' third reign (lmao, what a word pun) is so much underrated, and this splendid match against AJ Styles demonstrates that concept. (8.75/10)"

[6.0] "violent as hell, with high paced brawling. I think it needed to be longer to feel good but this match is not bad by any means due to the wrestlers like I said mainly due to the 11 minutes they were given. the ending was just so sudden and even new jack was in the ring for it. will say its funny that public enemy brought fans in the ring after and they were just a bunch ion goof balls"

[4.0] "I didn't like this match. I think it had decent wrestling, but what ruined it was the final sequence. I think it was a terrible ending even though it made sense for the story, but it really hurt the quality of the match. We also had that bodyslam that went very badly for William Regal, which was terrible for him and combined with other situation meant that he was out for a long time."

[5.0] "Good match with a lazy, rotten finish. Regal is phenomenal in this gimmick and gets a big heel heat from the crowd and Holly worked nicely as a babyface as he's from the state and was taking his time to acknowledge the fans' reaction. The finish though is just Raven straight up getting into the ring and hitting the finisher on Holly, which could have been something more original."

[5.0] "Neville has an acceptable start in-ring for his nature as heel, but this match is too short to talk about something. (5/10)"

[4.0] "Decent enough match, the moonsault by Eve was pretty good. A lot better than many of the other women's PPV matches from 2010."

[7.0] "Really fun opener right here between two good wrestlers who made the fight they'd promised themselves to make, very hard-hitting with two guys who know how to produce this kind of match better than anyone even if Magnus was never great by any means but he knew how to raise his level in this kind of match and Joe got the best out of him. Not the best No DQ you'll see, there are very few spots involving a chair and nothing more, but in match terms it was cool."

[10.0] "Young Shawn maicheals vs randy macho man savage was so good I like the booking for the match I love the ending just perfect idea for this kind of matches ****1/2 I wish they had more matches in wrestle mania or something will be great to of the best in history"

[5.0] "Ueno tried but Mike Bailey just comes across as a colossal dork and begs you to not take him serious. This had the hallmarks you expect from a main event in 2024 but after the hatred expressed through physical violence Takeshita and Shunma put on just before this match it fell flat."

[10.0] "Best match of the show macho man randy savage great heel work great profrmecnce American style in Japanese wrestling I love the match so much the time was the only problem tenryu is good I think this match deserves ****3/4 the time was the only thing I dont like"

[5.0] "It was a good match. Most of it felt like a basic raw match, but in the final sequence it improved a lot and ended up becoming a good match."

[6.0] "A little too much of people being in the ring at the same time and not enough tagging, but it was still very fun. The action was quick and it didn't feel like they were rushing anything, even though it was only 10 minutes and there were 5 falls. The final showdown between Lita and Malenko was also done right as they gave Lita some offense, but not enough to bury Dean."

[8.0] "Your usual very good fast-paced match between Angle and Hardy which was becoming the norm at the time, I won't repeat what I say every time but once again their chemistry was excellent and so was the action. Perfectly suited for a title match on TV and even more so on a special show like this one, TNA knew which wrestler to send to give Hardy a very good title defense and it didn't fail. Full of big moves and nearfalls, I loved it as usual."

[5.0] "It was good for most of the match. Brock Lesnar was very dominant and I think that was the goal of this match. However, I think it was obvious that Brock Lesnar was going to eliminate Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin and when the time came to face Kurt Angle, they were going to prevent that match from happening. That ended up happening and the ending was very bad for that reason"

[5.0] "Like with Madden, UFC, and MLB The Show, you're paying premium for a roster update. It's the same exact game as the year before with the one true new feature being WarGames which is fun but not all that great."

[0.0] "The worst main event in the history of Wrestlemania for a number of reasons. Even without the crowd's displeasure at Roman being in the spotlight for 3 years, this is one of the laziest matches I've seen. It became typical for Brock at this point in his career to just do signatures and finishers repeatedly. No psychology, no drama, just moves. When you add in that the crowd didn't like either guy it makes this unbearable. Not Miz/Cena, not Hogan/Sid were worse than this. Close, but this was a match no one wanted and both wrestlers were apathetic in their performance."

[4.0] "This match didn't keep me interested I expected a better match, I don't know what will be the future for Deonna Purrazzo, but I hope that these losses will not make Mariah May betray Toni Storm because they are one of the best teams in AEW."

[1.0] "Stephanie McMahon, in and out of the ring, is the personification of corporate polish. Nothing about her looks genuine, (I'm not talking about appearance), she was always making herself look better in promos with any wrestler, male or female. I remember the build up to Summerslam 2014 and they made it sound like Inoki was coming out of retirement when it was announced Steph was going to have a match. She was never good in the ring and the demand to see her again wasn't high. The only time I ever found her entertaining was in 1999 when she was just Vince's daughter. Kidnapped by Undertaker, Test's girlfriend, etc. All the stuff before, in kayfabe, Triple H drugged, kidnapped, and raped her. I can say with certainty that she offered so little as a character I was never interested. If she was just another on air talent she would've been future endeavoured after 2003 at the longest."

[4.0] "Ok show at best. Undercard was nothing special. The Stars/Gods Eye trios was really good but both matches following it suffered from the same problem with only one pairing within the match actually being even semi-interesting. This was a particular issue in the Prominence match where Lady C and Kamitani felt totally redundant and were difficult to invest in. The Suzu/Risa portion was good but not enough to make up for this. Main event was an improvement, with more and better interactions between Maika and Momo but still lacked many other interesting or dynamic segments. Xena was good though."

[4.0] "This actually isn't a bad match by Freebird standards. They at least wrestle with some life and energy here - largely just because Doom can throw them around the ring, but it's a hell of a lot better than the usual lengthy chinlocks that Hayes makes us suffer through. It's a bit too short to be worth a lot (not that I'm complaining, I'm sure the match was much better off for it and wish all Freebird matches were this length) and the booking is awful for obvious reasons, but the in-ring aspect of this was fine."

[8.0] "I didn't find this one as a psychological warfare. Rather as an exciting spotfest. Velveteen was winning the title here, so of course it had to be a Takeover type of match. Reversals, lots of kickouts and just an enjoyable time"

[7.0] "Another very good match of Cesaro - Sheamus as tag team, the alchemy between them and The New Day is a hit. (7/10)"

[8.0] "Insane atmosphere for this main event between Aries and Hardy right here that lived up to all its promises, the match itself was already very good with some good storytelling but the crowd only made it better. This was surely one of the best performances I've seen from Jeff Hardy, he was motivated, brought in new moves he didn't often do and bumped like a mad man for Aries. Aries was great too, the two clicked superbly together. The crowd was divided (although Aries had a slight advantage) but once again, they were ON FIRE and it was so special."

[8.0] "Great spotfest right here, which was everything I expected from a match like this, and when I saw the names present and the rating of the match, I knew I was going to find something I liked and that I was going to enjoy it a lot. I was not mistaken, as many of the sequences, moves and spots were fantastic in this match and everything ruled. A few minor errors here and there, but that doesn't spoil my appreciation. Chavo & Hernandez winning is certainly a choice but the match was excellent."

[6.0] "There's no doubt AJ Styles is an all time great, I tend to think he was a bit overrated in this time just on the novelty of seeing him finally outside of TNA but looking at his overall career it's hard to argue against his success, accomplishments, and acclaim. Jay Lethal, well, I think he's another story. Sure, I was as charmed as anyone when he was doing uncanny imitations of Randy Savage and Ric Flair, he can definitely perform and had an element of charisma. But when the bell rings? It's kind of like an optical illusion or something, the closer you look at the guy the more mediocre he seems. Sorry to say but I think it tells you what shape ROH was in at this time that he was the guy they relied on for such a long title reign, one that drew a lot of criticism from longtime ROH fans. This match kind of illustrates that to me, AJ Styles does a great job selling his back and making comebacks but Lethal spends a lot of time in control and he's just not very engaging in that role. The match is not bad, it is certainly decent, but I personally find it quite overrated looking back."

[9.0] "Awesome match right here between Roode and Storm, better than any of their previous matches and clearly worthy of the tag team run they'd been giving us all these years, this is how you end a rivalry and get your babyface to win, everything from the action to the booking was absolutely perfect. Not to mention the spots, which were violent, bloody and all equally well executed. The fact that Storm was never an indisputable star after this match is beyond me, TNA was holding gold in their hands and this match was an absolutely fantastic spectactle. The ultimate Beer Money Inc. showdown, as brutal as it was exciting, great storytelling and an awesome moment for Storm, who finally got his revenge."

[5.0] "Bad Luck Fale's first , and if i'm not mistaken only , engaging singles performance. Okada makes this clunky mess of mass look like a capable, threatening fighter in a way that i think warrants more recognition than Fale does. [3]"

[6.0] "Probably one of if not the Ultimate Warriors best match of his career. Good storytelling although it felt a bit repetitive with Sherri distracting Warrior and Savage attacking him. I know Warrior is supposed to be some super strong thing from a different world but taking 6 elbows and kicking out and pinning Savage with a foot on the chest makes Savage look like a bit of a chump in my opinion"

[8.0] "Will admit my shameless bias here as Ranna has been a personal favourite of mine since her debut. However, the reason for that is that she wrestles an awesome style and does it really well. That corner kick she does is so cool. Plus, while she could probably stand to improve in terms of ring presence while actually wrestlingon offense, shes super charismatic and funny in the various pre-match bits that she does on house shows so I have faith that itll come."

[8.0] "The third match in their trilogy and while it obviously wasn't on the same level as their awesome Slammiversary match, that wasn't the point and it was a slower & calmer match, which isn't a bad thing, it was a different approach and I liked that. Daniels & Kazarian's heat was a bit long at times, I might have shortened the match by a few minutes but from Angle's hot tag until the end, it was great. The finish is flat and that's a shame, but otherwise good match."

[6.0] "An almost forgettable match, but it's absolutely better than the others the two performers had during the kick-offs of the PPVs in 2016. It works. Great ending thanks to AJ Styles. (6/10)"

[6.0] "As somebody who often hypes a lot of Luger's work as underrated, I was hoping to like this match more considering it has actually received some positive attention. Spivey controls most of the match, and he is fairly clunky, so this doesn't always go well (you'd have a tough time convincing me to take that Tombstone). His offence at least looks impactful enough that it works, but I thought he came across as pretty lacking in terms of presence and charisma, which made the lengthy heat segment less engaging than it could have been. I also really disliked the spot where Luger essentially 'Hulked Up' following a piledriver. I was close to going with a lower rating, but I liked the back-and-forth in the last few minutes and thought they did well selling the grueling nature of the match towards the end, so I'd say it edged out a 6.0."

[9.0] "One thing I love about a Sheamus match is you can tell how physical it is just by looking at his chest. Guy looked like a beetroot before this one even touched the halfway mark! This was super physical, and it elevated by the audience going absolutely ham for this. I was at the Sheamus/Gunther match in Cardiff and I didn't necessarily think that style translates to a stadium show as a lot of the audience can't comprehend the stiffness of the blows, but that didn't seem to be the case here. There's so many nearfalls that you could buy into here, but they never went into overkill. Gunther having to literally powerbomb his opponent onto the other one made for a great finish."

[4.0] "Similarly structured to the Gallows / Ibushi match we just saw , where the BC heel Karl Anderson wails on Naito for a bit and then just kinda slows things down until he loses. Naito is given the decency to at least win with his finishing move. [2.75]"

[8.0] "Really good TV match, although it took them a while to find their chemistry and click with the crowd ***3/4"

[7.0] "Very interesting tag title TV match right here, it was rare for TNA to give the tag team champions some time to have a really good solid title defense on television but that was the case here and obviously it was very enjoyable. Daniels & Kazarian could make a good match with anyone back then and Chavo & Hernandez responded to the challenge by performing well too. Rhythmic action and a hot crowd, it was very cool."

[6.0] "An acceptable match between two very good performers. Good ending when Orton and Wyatt kicks Ambrose's ass. (6/10)"

[5.0] "It's a forgettable match, but fortunatelly it's more watchable than the one they had had at SummerSlam in the same year. (5.5/10)"

[4.0] "Really not worth the hassle it was to find this. My illegal copy of the show cut out after the previous tournament match so is had to scramble to find the remaining matches. Gallows wails on 'Bush of a bit, then loses to flash roll-up. Gallows was looking good, albeit spamming that Throat Thrust a dozen times. [2.75]"

[10.0] "The only match I've seen from this ppv and I'm sad why I watched this match so late Will Ospreay and Mike Bailey are two of the best and most complete wrestlers I have ever seen This match had a very high speed and I definitely recommend you to watch it The fastest 5.25 star"

[7.0] "Another good one in the Hardy/Angle saga, I've already said several times that Kurt Angle was the one who got the best out of Jeff in the ring every time, and this was again the case in what was here an excellent TV match. They had over ten minutes and put everything they could into it - great moves, finishers, nearfalls, they literally couldn't have done better and it was very interesting. A good main event with high stakes and pretty relevant action."

[10.0] "I love this match. The 2001 MOTY and a match that I found out about in a wrestling magazine at the height of me exploring wrestling outside of the western world. Keiji Muto is my favorite wrestler of all time and this is my favorite match of his. Two aging masters in front of a legendary crowd in a battle between AJPW's past and AJPW's future. There is some powerful lore behind this masterpiece. Post AJPW exodus; Tenryu returns to the company after the death of Giant Baba to defend the triple crown against NJPW legend and reinvented version of Keiji Muto. I think at this point in Muto's career, he was truly the definition of getting better with age. Everything he did, every move had a purpose and I think you can really see that his explosiveness was rooted more in his mannerisms than it was in pure athleticism. Tenryu is like 50 and he's hitting avalanche frankensteiners and brainbusters. Muto wrestles an entirely new style with unique, precise offense; low dropkicks to the knees, dragon screw leg whips and the coolest move ever; the Shining Wizard."

[8.0] "There were some very good TV matches in those days during the Bound For Glory series, and of course one of the best of them all was the one between Styles & Daniels, whose their awesome chemistry was showcased in a superbly paced TV match. Daniels' heat was interesting, Styles' comebacks even more so, the crowd was super hot for them and the finish was very satisfying. Yeah, it's hard not to like something like that."

[5.0] "well-performed, but not memorable beyond the usual deliverances of moves that you can find in most of either man's matches. Yuji Nagata is a great worker, so is Goto, but together they gave me nothing stellar. [3]"

[6.0] "It's an awesome brawl while it lasts, but the short run time and disappointing double disqualification finish really holds it back from reaching it's full potential. The two beat the hell out of each other though, so it's definitely still a lot of fun to watch, just expect a match that's more of a teaser of what these two are capable of than anything else."

[8.0] "The usual dynamic of the long matches, long Bobby Roode main events like we used to have back in the day but personally I've always been a customer of it so I'm not going to complain, I found it a bit too far-fetched in terms of booking because TNA liked to complicate things too much for nothing but I find the whole thing very good. The match itself was excellent, with some great back-and-forth action, a crowd behind Aries and some overbooking that may have been a bit disturbing but in the end I thought it was a success. The fans were afraid that TNA would take the title away from Aries quickly and fortunately they didn't. So yeah - some terrific stuff in it with its dose of entertainment."

[7.0] "Solid match to give a worthy send off to Shelley & Sabin, this was their last match in TNA before presumably debuting in All Elite Wrestling in the coming days and they pulled a good match out of the somewhat boring team that is The System. Don't get me wrong, they're four very good workers, but the match initially lacked a bit of energy, and MCMG were able to change that and get the crowd involved. We saw some good action, too bad for the not-so-clean ending. Thanks for everything, the Guns."

[8.0] "Saya and Natsupoi are two very athletically gifted wrestlers, but they also put a lot of energy and passion into things they do, and I feel that this match had a lot of that. The key spots were executed extremely well and the forearm exchange on the outside, right before they beat the count out, is the type of stuff I love to see. This match was at its best when they were speeding things up and havjng action packed exchanges, rather than when they tried to slow things down in favor of a more traditional main seent style, like they tried to do in the first half of the match. I also really enjoyed they how they ramped up the violence as the match went on, leading to some really sick bumps. Even to this day, I believe this is one of Saya's most EXCITING matches to watch"

[7.0] "Two big favs of mine, dishing out elbows and trading signature moves. It's not much but it gets cheering. [3.5]"

[5.0] "I didn't even realise this was a No DQ match until I was the stipulation listed on here - I enjoyed the match, though. It wasn't exactly the most exciting bout that you'll ever seen, but Taylor had some very solid, traditional heel work here, and it was nice to see some good looking punches. Ultimately it's pretty unmemorable stuff, but I thought it was at least well worked."

[5.0] "Start of this match was a bit weird and overall it was an okay match with some cool Giulia moves. I expected more and it was short too, still not a bad match."

[8.0] "This was a good match and the kind you don't see on mainstream wrestling anymore. The problem is they let Trevor leave without putting someone over. Maybe there was something contractually with WWE that said he couldn't be pinned, who knows. All I know is that vacating the belt and leaving was a terrible decision. If he was retiring then I get it. If Cain wasn't ready, he shouldn't have been in the match. Coulda woulda shoulda, right? This was still a stellar match with little down time given the length and some solid back and forth."

[3.0] "As a wrestler during the Kings of NXT story? He was actually not that bad as a complete novice! But as a commentator, which is his main job dear god, he sucks! The entire discourse over "googling" wrestlers who make surprise appearances doesn't make sense at first blush when you consider that, typically, a promotion's play-by-play announcer (in WWE's case, Michael Cole) will quickly give you a run-down, but then it makes more sense when you consider that typically, WWE's color commentators (e.g. Graves, Booker, JBL) have been so bad you want to mute the TV come 8pm, and Pat really is no exception."

[8.0] "As the "Carolina Caveman" on the indies he was one of the best wrestlers. I saw him have 60+, 70+, and 90 minute matches that somehow never got boring and were back and forth and exciting. A comment a little further down really nails it by saying they feel bad for anyone who only knows him from NXT. I'm sure he's making great money and probably happy but selfishly as a fan of his for a long time I expected a lot more. It's like Nakamura's run. I'm not saying he was going to main event Wrestlemania but by now some kind of US or IC title run."

[0.0] "I see nothing in him that a lot of fans do. You know what? That's ok. I'm allowed to not like him and others are allowed to love him. To me, he's a bottom card guy desperately trying to look like the big time. Especially with his weird, kayfabe or not, obsession with being passive aggressive on Twitter towards other entities. I don't understand it. He's also shockingly clumsy in the ring and doesn't appear to have good control over his body. His ring attire is also atrocious. You could say that's because he's a heel and it's for the heat(tm) but so was Ted Dibiase in the late 80's and his gear didn't look like he picked it up at a yard sale on the way to the arena."

[2.0] "Awful, awful team. Neither guy stands out with their ability or promos. Waller is ok but I don't think he's anywhere near as good I've heard before I started watching him. He also has really terrible gear. Not heel heat gear but I want to laugh at how silly he looks and not watch his matches. If Shawn Stasiak (Meat) and Val Venis were a tag team and won the titles, it would be just like this but Meat and Val were far more entertaining and would've mad it fun. These two just don't have it. I don't buy into the Grayson Waller hype. His head is comically square and it renders whatever he's saying as unimportant."

[2.0] "It's very bold to do a nostalgia run on a team that wasn't good to begin with. I don't really know what to say, they both do seem like great people outside of the ring but there's nothing they do, have done, or will ever do that makes me want to go out of my way to watch a match. It shows how little WWE continues to care about the tag team division. There were only two hey days and they were both in spite of Vince's decision making. The biggest moment for this team was the match with Cena and The Rock in 2011 and that had very little to do with them. It was all about furthering Cena and Rock's feud."

[1.0] "The 1 is for the matches he's been involved in because while none of them were good, he was really putting in a lot of effort and was enjoying himself and that should be respected. As a commentator he's on the list of all time worst not counting someone who was a one off or temporary replacement. The camera cuts to his dancing are obnoxious. I can only speak for myself but I don't watch wrestling to see announcers dancing. He also has a bad habit of talking during entrances when he clearly should be laying out for it. His whole persona comes across like a mid life crisis dad trying to impress teenagers."

[2.0] "He's not a total loss because he started with a gimmick that was destined to fail and a debut that was even worse than that. He changed things up 15 years ago and just...never changed anything again. There's been variations to his entrance attire and pose but he's largely done the same promo and same character for 15 years. He's also not very good athletically. Any match of his that's considered great is with someone who always has great matches. Someone could make a solid case for his title run in 2011 to be the nadir of that belt in the 21st century. He's also involved in the one of the worst main events in the history of Wrestlemania."

[6.0] "When he's motivated and decides to have a good match because he likes his opponent, he can be great. When he doesn't like the opponent, he's lazy. That's never going to put someone in the conversation for the greatest ever. It was fun seeing him perform from 2012-2015. Everything after that, save for a few matches, was pretty uneventful. Once suplex city became a thing that's all he did during his matches. Then he had two awful Wrestlemania main events with Roman although their first one in 2015 was really good. Brock is an attraction. That's it."

[9.0] "One of the greatest wrestlers ever! If he had any weakness it was his promos. He wasn't awful but he never really had a memorable one. That said, his timing and athleticism were world class and should be studied by any prospective wrestler worth their salt."

[7.0] "I don't blame Roode for signing with WWE when he did. He was 39 years old and likely felt it was now or never. TNA started getting better in 2018 after D'Amore and Callis took over and I wonder how Roode would've contributed. His NXT run was great but his main roster run wasn't. That was the standard for that era. NXT was light years ahead of the main roster and it was incredibly rare for the main ppv to be better than the Takeover the night before. Roode is very talented on the mic and in the ring and it's a shame the last few years of his career are forgettable."

[6.0] "To me, it wasn't any better or worse than most episodes of Dynamite. I think a lot of fans were expecting to either be trolled about the All In incident or were hoping it was more violent. It was dovetailed into the Bucks/FTR match so I didn't see much of an issue with it. The rest of the show was decent. Cope vs Penta being the MOTN."

[4.0] "If not for the main event and Drew's outstanding promo, this show would've been one of the worst of the year. If you're advertising your first hour as commercial free and 45 minutes of it is a promo and less than 5 is for a match, (not including entrances), it's intentionally misleading. It also speaks volumes about it when the WWE YouTube channel only uploaded the last 20 minutes, which were the only worthy part of that promo."

[6.0] "All of the matches were very short which is a bit of an issue. They're trying to fill less than an hour with as much content as possible but I'd prefer to see two 15 minute matches and one or two promos. The first and last matches were good but it feels like any other episode of Power instead of a special or ppv."

[5.0] "I think it might be time for me to stop watching NXT. I was watching and loving it from 2015-19 and since then I don't think the quality is anywhere near what it was consistently. This episode just didn't click for me. It wasn't bad but I wasn't invested in anyone."

[4.0] "Nothing stands out but nothing is truly awful. The consistent issue with this version of ROH is the champions aren't featured in some way every week. This is ROH Dark. They should be focusing on the rivalries and storylines and not random matches."

[6.0] "Good tag team match and main event. The opening segment with Hammerstone/Alexander/Dreamer was good. The contract signing was standard for pro wrestling but nothing bad or out of place."

[2.0] "I really enjoy the team of Smothers and Armstrong, but this was a slog. The Royal Family are extremely boring and had a lethargic showing here. Just look at what little effort Rip Morgan puts in to his headlock. Unnecessarily long (and felt even longer), and never seemed like it was gaining any momentum - just meandering, with constant low effort holds. Looked like they nearly broke Smothers' neck with that finish, too... An absolute chore to sit through."

[6.0] "I find the low ratings for this one quite baffling, but I'm a huge Jerry Lawler fan so my bias may be showing. This was short, to the the point and did everything that it needed to do. Although Tazz certainly deserved better than being a lower card heel that's feuding with a commentator, he excels as a despicable heel here. I wasn't sure if I liked Tazz no selling three consecutive piledrivers, but his face plant after trying to no sell the third one certainly made it worthwhile. Raven gets a huge reaction when he debuts. This didn't have the cathartic feel good feeling that their Summerslam match had, but this was a fun match that didn't outwear its welcome."

[7.0] "Great team match, wonderful chemistry and a sequence of spots as we like them in this kind of tag match. It's great to see GYV as team champion, and so well deserved given all the hard work they've put in over the years. Clearly a renaissance for them since their return to the indie circuit."

[8.0] "Santo vs Panther Greatest Hits on tour in Japan. This is truly great, this is not an exhibition match."

[5.0] "I liked this a little more than most people seemed to. It wasn't exceptional and Dustin was clearly green, but it was a pretty fun little match. It felt surprisingly physical in parts and Landel is good at this lower card heel role to help out the younger babyfaces on the roster. Nothing to write home about, but I enjoyed it and thought it worked well for what it was."

[10.0] "What a match the best match of the night macho man great heel work and great Selling I love the ending macho man one of the smartest wrestlers I ever seen tenyru is good to (****1/2) I wish had more time they had only 11 minutes if they had 20 I will give it a *****"

[7.0] "I love a good bloodbath and this was exactly that. Unfortunately the finish not landing as well as they hoped hurts this match as a package. I'm not against the blood stoppage finish in theory though. Lawler does a phenomenal job of feeding for Kerry's punches and clotheslines. Von Erich no selling a piledriver Hawk style would have been a moment that I could get behind if Von Erich got a big clean win, but it feels wasted here. Great Lawler performance and blade job, but the finish and Kerry's pedestrian performance holds this one back from getting to that next level."

[7.0] "This was a very nice change of pace for these old WCW shows. I was impressed by how the joshi ladies actually managed to get a decent reaction from the fairly indifferent crowd by the end - it was clear that the fans were at the very least impressed by some of their moves (many of which are pretty ordinary by today's standard, but stand out quite a lot when watching through early 90s WCW). They didn't have a lot of time to work, but this was a great effort for what they were given."

[3.0] "It feels like this guy is asleep during every segment and match he's in. He puts in zero effort and when he does he is just very bad. He's a complete nepotism hire since he's Roman Reigns' cousin or something, I hope the WWE stops pushing him. Every time he is on screen it makes me want to stop watching. Giving him a 3 is generous but he isn't an absolute DUD. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ"

[4.0] "Well-paced but outside of Honma's natural charisma i didn't take any of it in. The various Kokeshi attempts bit is such a crowd pleaser. [2.75]"

[10.0] "What can you say other than this is the best card of all time. Only a handful of matches ever truly deserve a 10/10 rating, and this card has two in KENTA/Kanemaru and Misawa/Kawada, as well as another which comes damn close in Kobashi/Sasaki. While the undercard isn't spectacular it's still a fun watch, and by the time you reach the GHC Jr. Heavyweight bout the card is just incredible. The tag title bout is brilliant fun, the GHC Heavyweight match is underrated, Ogawa/Tenryu is good but not great and the final two bouts are brilliant, including one of the greatest matches of all time between Misawa and Kawada. In terms of workrate you've got KENTA vs Kanemaru for an absolutely perfect showcase of NOAH's Jr. division, for spectacle you've got Kobashi vs Sasaki in a big meaty battle, and for drama you've got the final match between Misawa and Kawada, a beautiful match worthy of ending the best card of all time."

[10.0] "Conventionally this match is not perfect, but in the context of this being Misawa and Kawada's nigh impossible final bout, it might be the best wrestling can be as an art form. This was at the later stretch of Kawada's best run of his career in my opinion, and Misawa clearly still had something left to prove. They showed that although both men had spent the last 15 years being dropped on their necks, they could still outperform anyone else in the world on their best day. Every Gamengiri, every elbow, every brainbuster and power move lands with such elevated intensity considering the amount both men knew each other. I don't want to say too much else about this because it's worth watching fresh to really enjoy the work both men put their all into. It's sloppy at time and you could argue it goes too long, but I think that just adds to the story on display and creates a meta-narrative of two veterans showing the world the magic which can only be achieved when Misawa and Kawada face off in the ring. While in my mind Kawada should've won here to cap off their story, it's hard to criticise what both men put on display. Go and watch this now, you will not regret it."

[2.0] "Did not except a fun matchup, considering both of these lads are as fun as watching a plant wither. Yujiro's finish was sick though. [2.25]"

[7.0] "This would have been a much better choice for the opening match. Two very sound wrestlers with great fundamentals, a classic babyface and a classic heel - this was bound to be solid at the very least. I can imagine some fans finding this to be a little dry, but sometimes it can be nice to get back to basics and enjoy a match that embraces simplicity and highlights pro wrestling in its purest form."

[8.0] "This is a throwback to those 80's lucha title matches. I liked that match more than their previous match as it was more clean wrestling here."

[6.0] "A very good opening fight. Jacobs is as good as ever technically in the ring, and he brought a lot of drama with Mills, not to mention the stipulation, which naturally gave him some. After all, the result was a little predictable, as we're in a very classic booking with an underdog in the company."

[1.0] "Blake Christian is everything bad about modern professional wrestling, and next to none of the good. A heartless, soulless move machine who gets his biggest praise for simply being Will Ospreay if Ospreay couldn't talk, showed zero emotion, couldn't sell convincingly, and was ginger. And that's coming from someone who loathes Ospreay and everything he stands for. Blake Christian, for all his faults, shows no signs of improving. He does this one series of rolls and flips into a basement dropkick on an opponent that's on hands and knees. Genuinely, I don't think he's ever connected with the kick at the end, and he won't stop doing the move."

[8.0] "Feels like i come away from Shinsuke title matches with little to say, but i really just don't want to come to the text box and say "his theatricality is stunning" every single time. Yuji's striking was really something else in this match, from his slightly delayed additions to strike exchanges to his one rancidly painful slap to a grounded Shinsuke, he was incredible here. [3.75]"

[10.0] "The clash between Roman Reigns and The Rock against Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania XL was a spectacle that embodied the essence of sports entertainment. It was a match that brought together legends of different eras, creating a narrative rich in history and significance. Roman Reigns, the Tribal Chief, stood alongside his cousin, The Rock, forming a powerhouse duo that represented both dominance and legacy. Their combined presence in the ring exuded charisma and raw power, captivating the audience from the moment they made their entrance. Opposite them stood Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins, two formidable competitors in their own right. Rhodes, carrying the legacy of his family name, brought an element of tradition and honor to the match, while Rollins, the Architect, brought his unparalleled athleticism and cunning strategy. As the bell rang, the anticipation reached a fever pitch. The chemistry between Reigns and The Rock was undeniable, their teamwork seamless as they executed a series of high-impact moves with precision. Rhodes and Rollins, however, proved to be worthy adversaries, countering each onslaught with resilience and determination. The ebb and flow of the match kept the audience on the edge of their seats, with each near fall eliciting thunderous cheers and gasps of disbelief. The momentum shifted back and forth, showcasing the athleticism and skill of all four competitors. In the climax of the bout, it was Reigns and The Rock who emerged victorious, their bond as family and as competitors proving to be an unstoppable force. As they celebrated their triumph in the center of the ring, the crowd erupted in applause, recognizing the epic encounter they had just witnessed. The match between Roman Reigns and The Rock versus Cody Rhodes and Seth Rollins at WrestleMania XL will be remembered as a defining moment in sports entertainment history. It showcased the perfect blend of athleticism, storytelling, and star power, leaving an indelible mark on the annals of professional wrestling way"

[9.0] "I mean yeah, this was amazing, what else would you expect from Sasaki and Kobashi. At a few points it felt very repetitive to me, including the 5 minute chop battle that went far too long for my tastes, but it did seem to be exactly what the crowd wanted, they were absolutely feral throughout. I wouldn't say this was the best bout on the card, but that's an exceptionally high bar and this was still one of the most influential and incredible matchups of all time. It was hard hitting and pretty relentless, and while it didn't always click for me it's still 100% worth going out of your way to watch."

[7.0] "There was a phenomenal amount of chemistry on display in this match, with all six participants making excellent contributions. For a guy who hasn't wrestled a huge amount in the last few years, Tomomitsu Matsunaga makes for a really good underdog."

[3.0] "JYD and Hughes opened the match with a really poor looking exchange. Things improved when Morton and Rich were in the ring, but even then the match was pretty basic and uninteresting. Morton did what he could to make this work as the face-in-peril, but the heel team seemed to have nothing going for them and brought nothing to the table other than Hughes being large...? The finish was very flat and strange, too. Boring, heatless match, and a very dull way to open a PPV."

[8.0] "Ishii's specialty is hard-hitting, Honma's specialty is also hard-hitting. It clicked instantly. Honma's sympathetic edge came into play a lot in this one, so did Ishii's tactless and roughhouse approach compliment that and send the crowd into hysterics every time Honma gave a 2.999 kickout. [4]"

[7.0] "Really solid match, was expecting worse but these two had pretty good chemistry in the ring, liked it. 7/10"

[7.0] "Not a bad match, Priest kind of had to carry most of it and got the reward of eating the pin! 6.5/10"

[8.0] "The match didn't excel in the ring but in its innovative use of the Spring Break festive setting, transitioning the action from the party atmosphere directly to the seaside. Sting and Luger fought their way to the beach and ultimately battled among the waves, creating a uniquely entertaining and memorable brawl that felt genuinely fun and spontaneous. This underappreciated moment capitalized on its unique environment, delivering a creative and exhilarating wrestling experience that set it apart from typical wrestling fare."
