["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

Not a perfect show but great promos and an amazing ladder match. I had a blast.

[kingoftheindies]

9. Very Very good go home show.

[Chiral]

I went in in a very downer mood but pretty much that whole show had me like

[Mochi Lone Wolf]

I went 8. Tag battle royale being boring brought it down from a 9. Excellent show otherwise.

[asuka007]

8.5/10:

The opener and the ladder match were both awesome.

Jericho vs. PPA was solid.

Riho vs. Toni was good. Although I’m still waiting to see how this heel turn is helping Toni? She feels LESS important now if anything.

Moxley and Hangman’s promos were both very effective.

Danielson is awesome.

Very good show overall.

[Deleted]

Thought the second hour kind of dragged at times, but still a very solid show overall. 7

Also probably one of the more pleasant Dynamite live threads we've had in a little while, too.

[Zone Was Wrong]

7

The battle royal dragged hardcore and as much as I enjoyed the ladder match, I was wincing hard during it. Looked like Sammy and Action just about killed each other on that ladder. Maybe tone it down JUST a notch on those matches please?

[coleslaw]

I'm going 9. Pretty great first hour. Ladder match was a crazy car crash. OC/BB was fun. Hook/Hardy was fine. Storm/Riho was pretty good. Tag battle royal was sloppy and awkward as f*** but I'm glad OC and Danhausen got the win

Shoutout to Mox, Christian, Hangman and Danielson for cutting killer promos tonight also

[WIENERS=$$$]

Matches were fine, but damn did those promos sell this PPV.

Plus, Riho won.

Money show.

[Deleted]

All personal opinions that do not need debate of course

7.

Alot of wild stuff in the ladder match but it was a scary spotfest.

OrangeDan doesn't do anything for me so i checked out of most of the battle royal.

Loved Christian being Christian and Moxley already bleeding by the time we got him on camera...Might as well cut out the middle man

[Kalmia]

Hard one to judge. Functioned better as a go-home show than as a standalone wrestling show, I thought.

The ladder match was nuts, OC vs Big Bill was fun, and I liked Storm vs Riho. The casino battle royale dragged in places, Jericho vs. Avalon was a lot of nothing, and Hook vs Hardy was fine.

Killer promos from Mox, Hangman, and Danielson. Christian's segment was good too. Could have done without the JAS beatdown on Ricky.

I'll give it a 7.

Not on the Orangehausen but I did feel like the crowd was dead through most of the battle royal Aside from the Dark Order, Lucha Bros, Top Flight and Orangehausen. Not that people weren't over but I do wonder if adding another battle royal was just a bit much especially after the ladder match

[Some Guy]

Probably a 6. Really loved the first 40ish minutes with a strong OC/Big Bill match, great ladder match, and incredible Mox promo. Then the rest of the show happened. JAS beatdown of Ricky Starks 9.0 just as boring as the first 8 times, Hook is great but Matt really isn't good in singles matches, Christian/Jungle Boy stuff was solid, Toni/Riho was good work but the angle is still shit, and the casino battle royal was maybe the worst battle royal they've ever done. Absolutely sluggishly paced, kind of an unsatisfying winner, messy timings...awful stuff. Main event promo was good at least.

They popped hard for Orangehausen winning though, glad to see it, I think they're gonna add a lot of crowd appeal to the tag title match itself

Her matches are still solid, but I think Toni's someone who's just better in the ring as a face. The robe tonight was a nice touch, though.

[The Captain]

Went with an 8. Dropped it from my original 9 because that tag-team battle royal really dragged, but other than that solid go-home show. Bryan absolutely sold me with the promo and I really want to see him f***ing kick MJF's head in.

[tuckerguy]

Pretty good show. Nothing too bad. The battle royal was a little bit of a mess and no FTR, but it is what it is. I'll give it an 8.

[Finish Uncle Muffin’s Story]

Didn’t watch. My interest in most stuff they’re doing right now isn’t there, but I’ll probably catch up over the next few days. Don’t think I’ll buy the PPV at this rate.

[Ecks Ecks Ringout Ecks Ecks]

I'll give it an 8, pretty good stuff across the board for my tastes. Multiple good promos, the ladder match was brilliant, loved Orangehausen winning.
