[20] He stated that the night two was "one of the best 2 and half hours of wrestling", with praise towards "the mindblowing trios main event", "End & Hero vs. Pentagon and Fenix", Mark Andrews and Pete Dunne's match as "a high-octane cat and mouse match", Matt Riddle and Kyle O'Reilly's and "grappling that would make Akira Maeda shed a tear of joy".

"[21] Andrew of SoCal Uncensored reviewed it as a "good show overall", which "seemed to set the stage for the entire weekend", with specific praise towards a few matches, as "Ospreay/Fenix pretty much killed it andCobb/Ricochet was a great showcase for Cobb".

[27] He rated the night two 8.5 as "a consistently strong show", with some criticism towards "the opener, Sami/Cody and main event" while "the Heroes Eventually Die/Pentagon and Fenix tag was the best thing".
