Can you imagine an outlet in any other medium saying this insanely hyperbolic stuff regularly and routinely about a developer's games or a studio's films and not being laughed out the fucking building for being ridiculously devoid of any critical thought or merit?
It's actually crazy, and he hasn't even pinned this stuff on someone good. He wasn't even this gay for prime Kenny, who blows Ospreay out of the fucking water. He's this gay for a mediocre gymnast.

No I don't. You're seething at a boogeyman you just constructed in your head because you can't handle that someone doesn't not even necessarily dislike, but doesn't have the same excessive love for Ospreay.
Ospreay's better than Miz but he's still mediocre.

Dave has used the "would have been match of the year in basically any other year" line at least 3-4 times this year. Hell he said that Danielson match at forbidden door would have won match of the year basically any other year, then didn't give it 5* and said the Swerve vs Ospreay Match was better. If you're seeing the greatest match you've ever seen bi-monthly you might want to self reflect.

People don't give Meltzer near enough shit for how far up his own ass he is. Remember when he told everyone Kenny calling him an idiot was actually just a big work because him and Ospreay are going to be working an angle over his star ratings kek

Nolan's a bad one to bring up because Tenet's reviews were fairly middling 7/10 range, shows critics are capable of being objective with his shit in a way Meltzer isn't with Ospreay

Consider who Meltzer has given non stop praise to throughout history.

From the last 20 years, that would be Okada, Ospreay, Kenny, Danielson, AJ, Tanahashi, Ishii, and Kurt off the top of my head. Go further back and youd have Kobashi, Misawa, Toyota, Hokuto, Benoit, Shawn, Bret etx. Looks like a short list of the greatest of all time.

I didn't think it was that good. There was no real heel or face alignments. I couldn't find much of a story in it. They did too much and didn't sell that much. It was a moves based match and while they did some cool moves and spots, that's all they brought to the table.

It's really hard for me to understand how Dave and others who have watched for so long can't really see through this stuff for the brainless crap that it is.
