Nothing's better than postin' in the morning!

Ratings Description:

A match will be rated as the following:

WDW- Wrestling Done Wrong. Terrible matches, possibly even embarrassing

W- Wrestling, meaning it was a wrestling match (nothing special)

WD- Wrestling Done- A solid, enjoyable match

WDR- Wrestling Done RIght. An exceptional match, must see!

I really love how these people all seem to be stuck at least ten years in the past with their Meltzer complaints it's very funny

it's cool that he's spent the last 2 years talking about how good wwe is doing but the parasocial weirdos obsessed with him still think he's being bribed by the competition because they get their information third-hand from reddit comments and various podcasts

Dave has been overly generous in WWE star ratings unless you think WWe should have a 5+ star rating and if you do the problem is you not Dave

You don't have to 8e a good person to 8e a hero.
The stupid thing is that Meltzer doesn't even particularly dislike WWE, really; it's just the house style he's not keen on.

Meltzer has even always rated WWE on a curve and is obviously far more generous with the star ratings for WWE shows.

If Dave has a bias for anything it's ladder matches. Dude loving loves his ladders. I'm pretty sure he's given every men's MITB match a 4+ no matter how stale and repetitive they are.

At my lowest point, it happened! Vince McMahon was ran out of WWE and Triple H took over. Since WrestleMania 40 the WWE has become a completely different company, and I have found myself loving it. So long as they keep this "new era" direction I will be supporting WWE fully, for the first time in my life. I hope to review many of the matches on their television shows, and PLE events here on this page. Thank you Paul Levesque for wrestling done right!

I think the only bit is that he wants to be a revered wrestling personality and he changes his focus at least every quarter. I think he’s insincere in everything he says or writes and just tries to cast as wide a net as possible to try and get someone to notice him.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I hope they really lean into the goofy haunted hayride aesthetic so I can see gifs of Bo Dallas chasing somebody around with a plastic sickle or Rowan wearing blacklight facepaint. There's still 4 months until Spirit Halloweens start to open, I need a fix before that.

I'm sure that's coming and I am dreading the myriad of posts saying that it's a beautiful tribute to Bray and just what he wanted (as the hologram is used to distract Cody Rhodes so Dexter Lumis can conk him on the head with a pumpkin)

They're going beat some jobber up, oh let's say "main event" Jey Uso, and then on the tron it's going to be video of bray with the "whole world in his hand" thing

WWE stans go "this is such a great tribute. It's cinema"

Next it's Uncle Howdy vs Jey in a funhouse match sponsored by Pizza Hut.
