Two fantastic debuts, a series of really solid matches, some good character development, great vignettes, and great use of the setting considering how little time they must have had to prepare. 10/10.

10 and here is why.
They like much of the world were dealt a crappy hand in the last week and have made the best of the situation. They also used their platform to help take the fans' mind off the fear and paranoia that has been growing due to the coronavirus.
This was AEW not just running their show but helping with the healing process

10 / 10
GOOD LORD!
That was just so damn fun. After all the anxiety and depression of losing my job and possibly not being able to find an internship to finish school, I NEEDED this show and it delivered. MJF was a damn star per usual, Matt FREAKIN Hardy debuting as the fifth member, BRODIE LEE as the Exalted One. So much greatness

Would’ve gone with a 9 due to some sloppiness in some of the matches but considering the circumstances I bumped it to a 10. The matches were largely good, the promos were fire and the two debuts were goddamn outstanding. Best American wrestling company going.

I gotta go 10. Very enjoyable show getting a massive boost due to the dogshit situation. None of the WWE empty arena shows have come close to capturing that atmosphere. Having other wrestlers out there as fans was a brilliant move

The two debuts were great, but honestly, seeing that many people around each other all night made me feel uncomfortable.

The two debuts were great, but honestly, seeing that many people around each other all night made me feel uncomfortable. It was like... six people on each side of the ring. That's not a ton of people, but it really added to the show.

An absolute 10. In a full arena it would’ve been a 20.

I debated on giving it a 9, but its not their fault I couldn't attend. Plus they took a shitty situation and made the most of it.

That's not a ton of people, but it really added to the show. Come on, as much crap as WWE is getting for not canceling Mania and this is fine? Granted I'm not sure your opinion on that, but that's the overall reaction.

Granted I'm not sure your opinion on that, but that's the overall reaction. The crap WWE is getting for not cancelling Mania isn't so much about a few people being around a ring to enhance the show, it's about the biggest show of the year, what is supposed to be a spectacle, being regulated to the PC instead of being moved to a later date. So I don't know why you're trying to equate the two.

Easily a 9 out of 10, IMHO. A very impressive show and a strong card from top to bottom which is a minor miracle considering the situation. Edit - What the heck I'm changing my vote. 10 out of 10, I was thoroughly entertained which is something I thought impossible given the circumstances AEW had to work under.

10. The fact they pulled off this show with no audience is nothing short of miraculous.
