Dave Meltzer's rating system | WrestleZone Forums

i think his system is useful if you are looking for something that you havent seen before, if he rates it 5 stars i am sure it is worth checking out
it's just like rating a movie or cd, and honestly, it all depends on your taste, you may or may not agree with it

he does love his Japanese wrestling though...i cant believe all thos matches are "5 star", yet there is only a relative handful of American matches considered "5 star"

i checked out Joe vs. Punk 2 and Joe vs. Kobashi, and didnt see what all the hype was about, yet i did check out Misawa vs. Kawada, and Dr Death Steve Williams vs. Kobashi, and really thought they were excellent

to see a list of his rated matches, go to wikipedia.org, and look up Meltzer...they have the full listing of 5 star matches there, as well as links to all the matches he has ranked from WWF, NWA/WCW, ROH, TNA, and Japan... it is interesting just to check out at least
