[The Rick Jericho]

7/10.

At least the show flew by. Needs more mid-card development.

[tagteammatchplaya]

Sadcap/10

[Gus Richlen: Ruffian]

Good show aside from WHY DID MADCAP PLAY THE HEEL but still -2 because Vince so 7.

[asuka007]

A 3/10:

LWO loses to JD, again.

LA Knight loses, again.

No women’s matches.

The same old Bloodline crap, again.

This show is boring AF.

[chronocross]

I thought it was okay, I liked the LA Knight/Woods match and setting up new challengers for Liv/Raquel.

I liked Nakamura's new attire as well as I missed seeing him on TV each week.

I also like the storyline with the Bloodline as it feels like they're setting up Jey for a beatdown in a couple of weeks when the Usos fail to regain the titles.

Gave it a 6/10.

[theironyuppie]

I'd say around 6.5. Most of it was quite fun, and it's good to hear crowds engaged in the LWO/JD storyline, but the Sami/KO/Riddle alliance still feels forced and the whole thing with Sami/KO and the Usos getting 'kicked out' just to return two minutes later was boring.

["Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik]

5 - good action but man some of the booking can be depressing.

[john84]

5 out of 10 for me this week. Some decent in-ring action but not a memorable episode and the Bloodline coming out on top AGAIN didn't help it nor did my boy Knight losing.

[Celgress]

7 out of 10, IMHO.
