So knowledgeable on history yet so bullheaded/insulated with his opinions

He's just a weird case study, always has been.


Then again look at his twitter, folks live and die by his thoughts. .. people will fight him knuckle to bone over quarters of stars so I get why he's kind of stuck in his ways about the weights of his opinion on how he sees matches.

The fact that most self described "smart" fans think every thing he says is true proves how retarded wrestling fans are

I had a similar reaction when I heard that but hey it's his opinion. I don't know why people get so worked up by what Dave thinks of wrestling.
There are only five "journalists" in wrestling, and a bunch of former workers with podcasts...Dave was the pioneer :manny:

IMHO he is almost as out of touch as VINCE. It's ridiculous the way he gives everything WWE a grading haircut because it's WWE.

If the usos and new day were in NJPW or PWG they would be Gods. The pass he gives reckless guys on the Indies vs the way he criticizes WWE for risks is ridiculous. The idea that THIS MATCH was surpassed SIX TIMES OVER in a two day period by pwg, I just don't buy it. Ricochet, Penta, omega, are INCREDIBLY talented, but six man tags over this? Stop it.

It is really shameful to me. Alvarez is even even worse but that's another conversation.

Yup. You see it a lot, it's weird.

Cats that are smart as shyt and should be able to form their own opinions on matches and performers that stay regurgitating stuff Dave said on this very board

Meltz is a legend no doubt but folks REALLY gotta stop living and dying by his star rating system.

It's antiquated in a day where we ALL can watch the same matches and react to them in real time (which used to be HARD AS HELL to do with Japanese wrestling) or let them marinate and form your thoughts.
