So now that WWE has such a high rating, can we all agree that Dave Stars are absolutely worthless?
>>
>>20609929
I don't worship at the altar of Meltzer.
>>
>>20609929
Don’t really I don’t care about it that much, kinda funny that aew tards and their mark wrestlers like ospreay are recoiling tho.

>>20609937
Yep he jumped the shark when he broke the scale in 2017

Whewww, now I can feel confident in saying the match was good. Thanks Uncle Dave.
>>
>>20609929
I'm happy osprey is upset at the attention this match got. I need to watch it myself even though I quit watching modern stuff.
I wonder how much was called in the ring or if it was blocked out like normal wwe matches.

Congrats, about as good as the average Ospreay match.

I suspect it was almost entirely blocked out. Guys don't really call it in the ring anymore. I don't know if either guy even has the ability, as entertaining as they are.

the fact that fucking shit like this is the barometer for what a great match is is why smarks all have terrible taste in wrestling because of over 20 years of indoctrination
>>
>>20609975
I'm an AEW stan and there's no way this is real. Mark's been killing it this year but nothing he's done has been 5 star material.

Apparently he loved all the run ins and the crowd being hot but lmao 5.75 is classic Dave
>>
>>20609929
What would Dave have needed to get 6 stars? No-selling Canadian destroyers?
>>
>>20609975
>>20609981
That's okay. Assplay got his stars of David so he can stop bubblin before he gets a heart attack.

Meanwhile EGA got the perfect score from: Cornette, Steve Richards, Vince Russo's podcast, Bryan Alvarez, Ariel Helwani, Sean Ross, Dutch Mantell, Bayley, and pretty much the whole wrestling world, including Assplay himself who couldn't speak shit on his rant about the match and called it "fucking awesome"

So we good
>>
>>20609982
I still don't know what the fuck is wrong with Dave to make that as significantly better than great DIY/Revival matches or the Gargano/Ciampa feud matches. Or any of the other great NXT matches for that matter.
>>
>>20609981
>It will be revealed as a typo, really 4.75
>>
>>20609975
This is the highest score AEW's gotten this year and I guarantee you it won't be a shortlist candidate for match of the year come award voting season over "lesser" AEW matches.
>>
>>20609976
I kinda thought that too, but I wasn't sure how they might do things in AAA. They probably couldn't call it in the ring, not anymore at least.
>>20609981
I know I'm half out the door a wrestling fan but I swear I haven't heard a peep of this match. I know will was doing crazy neck bumps while healing but that's the last match I've heard of his.
Kinda like Darby, once people are done calling you stupid there's not much left to say about these spots and matches.
>>
>>20609976
I noticed a callback to the Benoit/Angle Rumble 2003 match although Angle's grapevining was the finish. Considering Pete Dunne produced it and Chad Gable being an Angle style guy, I'm sure it was intentional and rehearsed.
>>
>>20610142
Creed segment was a bit too long to my taste. But the minions HAD to be involved, obviously, and showed themselves out in good time. Pimpi getting payback was another payoff moment.
>>
>>20610145
exactly, also a long exchange of counters like gymnastic acrobatics where they're clearly playing a choregraphed spot instead of showing they fucking hate each other
>>
>>20609929
theoretically is the scale limitless then? like a ten star match is possible despite the scale being five stars?
>>
>>20610336
kek yep. even kenny, the guy who broke dave's brain, clowned on him for this

The two WWE matches he's given five stars to this year I actually agree with.
>>
>>20610336
Theoretically yes, now, after Meltzer busted his 5 star scale then gave 6 stars then 7, there's no limit.
Realistically, Dave's mancrushes are getting too old and slow to break 7 stars as they can't do properly the long choregraphed gymnastic routines that make Dave cum and do it even longer. What would it even take to break 7?
A 2 hour, perfectly cheorographed triple threat with Osprey, Okada and Omega in the Tokyo Dome?
Secondly, Dave won't have second loves as strong as his feelings for Okada, Osprey and Omega, so he'll never have the same level of bias for a newer wrestler as he's got for them.
>>
>>20610336
the funny thing is to Dave, the limit is 4 stars not 5. To him, anything over 4 stars is a MotY candidate. So it's funny when people say 5.25 is breaking the scale because it's already broken.

Now I could be wrong but I believe if I remember right his viewpoint on matches getting 5, 6, or even 7 stars are signs of the standards getting raised. A new bar to reach for. Not so much that "oh you didn't get 5+? Well fuck you!" But more "the whole industry has gotten better".

And to be fair, we are far and away from TL Hopper vs The Goon as the standard weekly TV match. It's a fair assessment.
>>
Dave is such a snake for giving Ospreay/Davis the same rating. When people call him an AEW shill, it's for shit like that. I didn't like it, but I can see why some people would...but that match is not going to be remembered 2 weeks from now while The Grande vs Grande match is going to be remembered a lot in the future.

A gay sequence where they do a bunch of cartwheels and dodge a bunch of kicks where the payoff is staring at each other at the end of it. Then he'd also need a spot where one of them does a finisher, then the other guy no sells it to do his own finisher then they both get "knocked out" for 5 seconds before doing a finisher where the guy kicks out at 1 then he's "tired" but the kick out at 1 was "spirit" so he's just standing there waiting to get hit by another finisher.

>gable does the angle slam but EGA kicks out at 1 with the fighting spirit then they trade mexican destroyers before collapsing for 10 seconds then they get up to do 20 weak elbow strikes on each other as they get up off the ground onto their knees and then stand up and then gable does a release german suplex but EGA lands on his feet and tries to clothesline gable but gable senses it and does the trish straus matrix then as EGA comes back off the ropes Gable does a hurricanrana to EGA but EGA does a handstand flip out of the move then they do the street fighter pose and dave cums.

it got long because the midget had to get time to get that high. Honestly it wasn't even a bad involvement. Creeds even dealt well how the table didn't break at first and added to the brutality of the match

Yep it's blatant at this point. Even the way he himself talked about this match vs the ospreay one shows which was better.

The sad part of this is that this Ospreay match was actually really good. But more because of Mark Davis than Ospreay. Mark Davis is the best power wrestler in a long time. He is great as a singles guy and he does stuff that nobody else does to the level he does it.

He really stands out to me. But the narrative will be about Ospreay.
