at still paying attention to Meltz's ratings. It went all downhill this year.
How so? That's a personal classic match for me so I'm just trying to see your opinion.
that shyt was like a 3.5 at bestWar Games was nowhere near 4.5 stars. Meltzer done lost his damn mind.
There some botches in there, good match but it's not a classic match that I would and watch over and over again. I felt like the Punk leaving angle was the match instead of the match enhancing the angle if you get my drift.
Why does his opinion matter?
I thought the whole 6 stars and 6 1/4 stars shyt was finally going to expose how ridiculous is to take Dave's ratings seriously. Unless you just wanna have fun with it and troll I honestly don't see any purpose on his views, specially given how shytty his taste is when it comes to current wrestling
You really don't need Dave's snowflakes to start a thread about which matches were better. Specially here in TSC
I think at this point there's a group who legit takes his ratings seriously because they see him as a sort of "Roger Ebert of wrestling" when it comes to match quality - which is fukking by itself but that's another topic - and in this day and age there's an obsession from fans of any form of entertainment to get their own opinions validated. Given that Dave is oldest and "most respected" wrestling journalist/critic, his views on stuff get dissected and talked about more than any other person.
It's fukking but it seems it will never go away.
till you rant matches.
I would stay far away from critiquing others match rants.

His most egregious ratings aren't even Japan. At least with those it kind of makes sense. The ratings he gives to random PWG matches is absurd
It can be Dalton Castle vs. Marty Scurll in some random ten minute match where they're doing goofy shyt and no selling and Dave gives it four stars
Not true. Watch takeover againPut any of those NXT matches under either of the main brand and he would've scored them 1-2 stars lower
