Naito is really good but I think he's just a step behind Styles right now

Neville deserves to at least be in the conversation for that top 5 imo.

I think there is some consensus as to who is in the top 3, after that it gets tough. Like Ishii to me is probably top 5 but I can see him not being there too (but not far off).

styles is an incredible wrestler but in more of a hmmm sterile way. like you look at him and you go wow this guy is a really fuckin great wrestler. look how good he is. he's even pretty good on the mic. kushida is the best babyface in the world and when somebody rips his arm off while you are appreciating that it makes you sad and mad and you want him to win a lot and when he does win youre like i love kushida and pro wrestling

Yeesh save some stars for Okada/Omega 3! Also the rest of the ratings feel just right. I'm especially happy for Kushida cause he had a great run in Super Juniors and here

Dave trolling with stars is great. Glad that tag match got some recognition because it was the best junior tag in awhile.

I'm actually more shocked to hear Dave write that Omega/Okada is (right now at least) ahead of where Flair/Steamboat was at a comparable point in their program. I'm pretty sure Meltzer was at one of those televised Flair/Steamboat matches and is shown on camera completely losing his mind at how great it was, too

I wish I'd gotten on the train back in January after WK11, but I'm glad I got on now. It feels like Okada is doing something really, really special right now and obviously Omega and the rest of his opponents are all a huge part of that.

We need to discuss something lost in the shuffle after so many great Dominion matches — YOSHI-HASHI is going to wreck Suzuki, restore CHAOS's honor, and finally get a belt.

I hope Dave unironically gives Okada/Omega 3 a million billion stars and completely breaks the scale, to where it's a big deal when he only gives a match 70 million stars in the future.

I really hope this happens, as YOSHI-HASHI was getting a fun lil' push last year that seems to have been sidelined; it'd be awesome to see him finally have something to do and would certainly be a breath of fresh air for the NEVER belt (Goto never did anything for me as the champ, and Suzuki doesn't need it). I basically want the NEVER title to be the "King of the Midcard" belt instead of the "Beat the poo poo Outta You" title. though it's fine if that's still a part of it going forward

Has New Japan shown interest into Jeff Cobb or is he stuck because of Lucha Underground fuckery? I'm imagining him in the G1 or anything and it would be so great.

Riddle facing Ishii could lead to Riddle getting some work for New Japan though that could be a bad idea for Riddle due to Japan's weed laws
