That Takeshyta vs El Pantasmo match will be overrated by him no doubt. I just watched it. Should have ended on DQ after the table pile driver spot that was on purpose and not accidental. Typical Japanese spots that contributed nothing to the match.

If I had to rate it on Dave's scale. 3.75 stars.

Well I was right. He rated that higher than AJ vs Nakamura (4.75) in the Tokyo Dome in 2016. Yes I've watched both and no way it was better than AJ/Nak.

Let's be honest, Meltzer is all over the place... did you think AJ vs. Cody was better than AJ vs. Nak? Because he just gave AJ vs. Cody 5 stars...

People take his opinion way too seriously.

On Meltzer's scale I'd probably give AJ vs Nak a 6. Which AJ vs Cody? France? I'd probably give that a 4.5. I'd probably have to watch it again.

I'm not big on rating matches either. But if someone is going to ask like you did, or I need to use it for a comparison conversation, I will. I'm more on the side of, did I like it or not? That's usually how I see things.

An example, I watched Giulia vs Sareee and IYO vs Utami and while I liked both I thought IYO vs Utami was the way better match. No need for a rating with that.

Yes, I believe it was 'Backlash France' where he gave AJ vs. Cody 5 stars. At the end of the day, it's one guy's opinion. He has a following but it ain't serious to me. I'll see him give random matches that I thought were mid and he's giving it 4 stars.. it is what it is.. :manny:

I don't rate matches either. I think words like "excellent" or "good" or "bad" are fine..
