Reactions from esteemed retired wrestlers regarding the perceived “modern style” of wrestling have been diverse.

I did absolutely love the Claudio and Will Ospreay match. I was a big fan. I like Don Callas and Taz. I like their dynamic on commentary. And the match was fantastic. Claudio is insanely good as is Ospreay, surprise, surprise, everybody.

Storm did mention his concern however about the reasoning behind the exciting battle.

But there is part of me that wishes many of these matches had more angles and stories so that you could get into them and look forward to them more. But the match itself was fantastic.
