As a bonus, if you watched it, tell us how many stars you'd have given it yourself.

I'd go 4.5. Botch ruined it a bit. Okada vs Naito, Kaito vs SANADA and Zack vs Okada were better

I've seen, by my estimation, over 3000 matches in my lifetime from nearly a full century over dozens of countries and this was the bottom of the barrel. A meaningless spotfest conducted by an out of shape failed ace and a cringy gymnast. A mockery of puroresu.

On my scale 3.75 doesn't mean "meh", 4 stars means "holy shit they tore the fucking house down". Meltzer, and by extension his drones, inflated the fuck out of their scales where 2-3 star matches might aswell not even exist anymore. I have very few 5 star matches.
My highest rated matches this year are both **** (Kenny vs. Ospreay at WK and Usos vs. KO/Zayn at WM)

Damn. I agree with you in principle and think Meltzer has inflated the ratings (Especially with his meme 5+ star shit) but my highest ratings this year were 4.75 for Omega vs Ospreay and Nakajima vs Kento.

Still only give a 5 star rating around once every 2 years, though. It misses the point so hard to hand them out like candy.

Boomerchads are based. They keep the zoomies and Meltzertards that want to pretend that the past 10 years of wrestling have destroyed everything else that came before it in check.

If he gives it anything more than 4, then he really will be a hypocrite. He criticized Hogan vs. Rock for its lack of 'proper' selling and spots, and this match - from a purely technical perspective - was ruined at the end, depriving the audience of what was 'intended' and giving them a compromised version. Going by Dave's autism, this should disqualify it from being 5 stars.

I'd give it a 4.25 because while the botch kick made it more exciting, hearing Ospreay shouting at Naito what moves to do took me out of it
