sounds, the main event is entertaining, Taz/Candido is as good as a 10-minute match gets, and the rest of it isn’t the worst" and recommended that ECW "should have held the show at the ECW Arena". Scott Keith of 411Mania wrote "The energy was pretty much there, but the card was so eggreciously bad in booking and setup that it would have taken a Herculean effort to overcome it in the first place" and he gave a "mild recommendation to avoid". TJ Hawke of 411Mania gave a rating of 3 stars, stating it to be a "bad show", with "The only thing the crowd seemed to actively care about was the post-main event brawl. That is not a good sign for the quality of a show. The only match from this show that I would encourage someone to check out is Bam Bam vs. Spike. That was awesome." Jack Stevenson of 411Mania considered it an average event by giving a rating of 5 stars and stated "Very little of this was actively bad, but there was nothing really good either" and "Taz-Candido and RVD-Snow were reasonable". He further added "Aside from mentioning the horrible crowd, the star ratings really tell the story- bottoming out at *, but peaking at ** ¾. In short, it’s an inoffensive time-waster, but not worth spending money on." Wrestling 20 Years Ago staff rated the event 3 out of 10, writing "People in the building seemed to like the show, as did many ECW fans, but this show does not stand up at all well. The Sandman story was bizarre, the lighting bush-league and the in ring action not at the standard ECW would want."
