Will Ospreay is the best wrestler
>>16558217While Will Ospreay's multiple five-star matches are an impressive feat β he has indeed earned more five-star ratings than the entire WWE has collectively over recent years β this doesn't automatically make his achievements more valuable than what top WWE superstars bring to the table.Five-star ratings primarily resonate with hardcore wrestling purists who value technical skill, innovation, and high-risk movesets. Will Ospreay excels in these categories, consistently delivering matches that push the envelope of what's considered possible.WWE, by contrast, focuses on a broader spectrum of entertainment β blending athleticism, charismatic characters, gripping storylines, and mass appeal. Stars like Roman Reigns, John Cena before him, and others have built enduring legacies without ever securing a five-star match. Their success is measured by ticket sales, merchandise revenues, and global viewership β metrics that dwarf the impact of individual match ratings.To dismiss Ospreay's achievements due to WWE's lower five-star count would be myopic. Each promotion caters to different segments of the wrestling fanbase, and both Ospreay and WWE's mainstays hold merit in their respective realms. Five-star ratings, while prestigious, should not eclipse the broader influence and resonance of top WWE superstars.

>>16558225nigga look cody was a total dork in aew, and he's your shining star nowif will started popping 5ers in the fed and bruvposting they wouldn't need to pipe in chants, believe me also, all of the cena downies would fucking crown his ass without a second thought
>>16558225All he does is flips and no sells. AEW could have tried to mold him after AJ Styles but Tony is retarded.
>>16558235Based on what? Who was the last guy that they signed who came in and got hot right away? Maybe LA knight? Heβd be a midcarder like finna or tama
>>16558258will can clear eli in retard posting and he is literally the best wrestler alive paul nose should give aj styles a massive raise because he almost convinced will to sign there
>>16558217>some jew boomer ratings Lol
>>16558217Yeah
>>16558217i remember the day when the best wrestler actually means something
why is this retard tranny shill still trying to pretend we don't know just how disgustingly repulsive it is?
>>16558217>Five-star ratings, while prestigiousdude, it just some rating from a monkey face journo
>>16558217indisputably true I'm afraid
>>16559683archives don't recognize emojis or words x2. the results are every single filename that contains the words 'ospreay'

those ratings are just dave's speculation and not a report
>>16560428they were all reported in the newsletter
>>16560455nope it was his speculation about the match quality
>>16558217he sure is
>>16558217At least one a month since joining AEW. Dudes on a good pace.
>>16559683Dire
>>16560201>>16560182>>16560379>>16560398>>16560560Take the wrestling fig out yo bussy playa
>>16558217Who keeps updating this
>>16559683retard alert
>>16560584Me
>>16558225If you listen to Dave explain the rating system he breaks it down as such>What was the story told in the match>How did the general flow of the match play in to this story>What emotions did the match make me feel as a result of thisHe rarely mentions stuff like athleticism, he constantly says phrases like "The story of the match was [x], which played in to the match by [y], which made me (or the crowd) feel [z]"A perfect example of this is when he explains his 5.5 star rating for Danielson v Swerve>The story of the match was Swerve forcing Danielson to retire in front of 40k fans and his family, which played in to match because Swerve played dirty and used his family against him, which made the crowd feel empathy for Danielson and then elation when he got the win and didn't have to retireThis whole "Dave doesn't like stories and only cares about moves" thing is really overblown. I can't think of a single Dave rated """5 star banger""" where he gave it based strictly on the moveset and what the guys did to each other in the match. There's probably a few out there yes but I've been follow WOR for like 6 years (I'm a fucking saddo, I know, but Dave's podcasts are comfy) and can't recall any that go this way. Even his WWE 5 star matches weren't exactly work rate clinics.
>>16560615Assplay is a shitty worker because he can't tell a story. He doesn't know how to sell and has no idea how to work in a believable way. He's just a glorified gymnast working obviously cooperative gymnastics routines with a partner. He's not a pro wrestler.
>>16560630that's not true
>>16560615>Even his WWE 5 star matches weren't exactly work rate clinics.Actually the one match people were convinced Dave was going to break the scale again for, that Gargano/Cole best of 3 match got 4 stars because Dave said it was just guys doing shit to each other and didn't tell a very good story.
>>16560630Simply not true ;)
>>16560649Based Dave not letting these shitters get away with forced "ebic" matches.
>>16560630The only thing he ever sells is exhaustion. He can't sell a serious leg or shoulder or anything else injury because then he couldn't do movez at 100mph
>>16560691t. Never watched an Ospreay bangerino
>>16560691Nah his selling is top-notch, just look at last night vs Brodie. He really ELEVATED him.
>>16560691Sometimes he does that gay and phony fencing response sell don't forget that
>>16561028the whole selling meme is from some gif where he did the spot where no no sell at first and then sell it like ishii always does, but the other part was cut out of it somehow it stuck because this was around when he was feuding with triple h
