For what felt like a decade WWE would have bumpers bragging about any kind of media attention they got, including blatantly misleading things like "The WWE Universe have more twitter followers than every sport combined!" or bragging about winning an award that they pay to have on an awards show every year

Rhaka Khan trying to shoot murder 3 minis in Lucha Libre USA was also given -5☆

Also the Dos Caras, Rayo Del Jasico, and Villano IV vs. Canek, Mascara Ano 2000, and Cien Caras from 2017 was close as well

Didn't Formerly The Bushwhackers vs Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff from Heroes of Wrestling get -5* as well. I know Alvarez rated it as "Minus all the stars in the universe and the universe is infinite", but I'm pretty sure Dave gave it the -5* rating.

It's like goldy or bronzy, but made of iron.


So does that make the Bushwhackers the only people to have had a five star match and a minus five star match?

I am now wondering if it would be possible for someone like Okada, Omega, Ospreay, Shingo, etc to intentionally put on a -5* match and actually get the rating from Dave or if he'd be too unwilling to give them a minus score.

A Cagematch rater with some...interesting views.



Always good when your review starts "Yes I know he was a paedophile BUT..."

Lots of other weird things like rating Don & Ron Harris 10 while Ricky Gibson gets 4, far too many to list but giving Jack Gallagher a 10 rating 2 months after his heinous past was outed sure is a choice that goes along with rating Buck Zumhofe a 10.

Oh, I missed this one, a 10 rating for Ian Rotten: "One of the best promoters in wrestling. Founded IWA Mid-South one of the only hardcore promotions in wrestling today other than CZW. Great in the early days of ECW. He is 50 now and is slowing down but still can wrestle."

That seems like a troll went and looked up "worst people in wrestling" and rated them highly and then decided to rate a bunch of popular wrestlers poorly. I don't believe this person has ever even seen a Buck Zumhofe match.

With the cherry picking I made, you'd think so. But the guy has rated over 1,000 wrestlers somehow & a lot of them are reasonable enough, & then you get Scott Hall being rated a 0.

See for yourself, if it's trolling then boy has some dedication to his craft.

STOP DOING HEROIN
Just a quick look at guys with both historically high and low-rated matches:


-- Sting was in both WarGames 92 (5 stars) and WarGames 98 (minus 4 stars).

-- Bret Hart was also in that 98 WarGames match. He has 5 stars with Austin (Mania 13) and Owen twice (Mania 10, SummerSlam 94).

-- Lex Luger was in WarGames 98 and has 5 stars in two other WarGames matches, both in 87.

-- Speaking of Austin, he was in WarGames 92 and has the Mania match with Bret. He got minus 3.5 stars in a scaffold match at Great American Bash 91.

-- Dustin Rhodes might be the king of this exercise. He was in WarGames 92 and has 5 stars with Cody at the first Double or Nothing. He has minus 3.5 stars in an IYH match with Warrior in 96, minus 3 stars in a tag match at Battlebowl 93, and minus 2 stars in the "King of the Road" match.

-- The Tower of Doom cage match from Uncensored 96 is just cheating, with Ric Flair, Arn Anderson, and Lex Luger all involved in multiple 5-star matches.

-- Seth Rollins has 5 stars in the Passion of The Cody HIAC, the first main roster match to get 5 stars in 11 years. He also has minus 2 stars in the instantly infamous Fiend HIAC match. Talk about a land of contrasts.

-- The Undertaker has 5 stars with Shawn Michaels in the first HIAC match, and minus 2 stars in the tag match with Kane against KroniK. Also minus 2 stars in a 97 Raw casket match against Kane.



I'm sure there's more but that's all I got for now.
