Hated it. Like legit hated with a passion.
As I said in the ratings thread, a match like this needs to be over the top goofy (with whose involved) and it felt like too many parties involved tried to play it too seriously. So rather than getting some goofy Memphis rasslin like we have from Jarrett (and when not in title matches consistently it's been fun) we got a slow and plodding match that reminded me of the Godwins.

It was awful, but it all went to a good cause so whatever.

It was probably the worst match in Dynamite history.
I loved it.

Everyone else played it seriously?? Kassidy was posing when they got dunked in blood and all Karen did was shriek the entire match, no one was taking this seriously I don't think Pretty sure at one point in this match Dutt stole Ethan's hat and continued to punch him lol

I want Jeff Jarrett vs. Young Sheldon in a "Point To His Head To Show How Smart He Is" match.

Honestly Karen just needs to go away but that's a different discussion. Maybe I had different expectations where I was expecting something similar to the Broken Universe and we got a bad 2000s WCW hardcore match complete with the match starting outside the ring

I know a lot of us thought it was the funniest shit ever (and it was) but I do totally get people outright despising it. Even for a funny gimmick match, that shit was dire. It is just to me, that is what makes it even funnier and I sniff glue on occasion. It's all good.

Idk, I just thought it was the kinda stuff wrestling was made off of, a backbone of just complete absurdity
Was for by all accounts what seems to be a good upcoming game and the proceeds went to Maui so I'm glad they were able to put on a show
But it is not the worst horror match I've ever seen, because I watched the House of Horrors and the Swamp Fight...

In the end it was what it was I also don't really hate Karen but she's been a non entity to this point outside of Valet which helps.

Robocop better run-in and save Sting one more time before it's all said and done. And JR better make the call again.

Why couldn't Leatherface disembowel Nana? He had a chainsaw and everything needed to get the job done

It is just to me, that is what makes it even funnier and I sniff glue on occasion. It's all good. I think that the reason why I liked it is that it was very tongue in cheek and self-aware in how awful it was instead of trying to like, play it off as being a serious match. Like they knew it was going to be stupid and they leaned in.
Like if they played it straight, it would've gone from "so bad it's good" to just "bad."

For the record as well, while I hated this match, I do agree that goofy stuff like this is needed on a show I just don't think it hit for various reasons.
