Reacting To Dave Meltzer's AEW Double Or Nothing 2024 Star Ratings 

Meltzer math is like playjng D&D. -2.5 stars for women. +2 stars for NJPW. +3.5 for Will, Elite or Danielson. +2 for heat. +8 if he has a hotdog

It’s gotten to the point were I get excited for Dave Meltzer’s ratings because I can’t wait for you two to react to them.

Thank you guys for covering AEW, in a way that feels fair and objective ❤

#hottake having 6 Meltzers on the right but only 5 on the left kills.

Meltzer works in a vortex - rates a promotion's matches high, then talks about how highly rated they are as a way to make a general point that the "wrestling is better." It is a lot like going on Yelp and rating your own restaurant, then telling people how beloved the restaurant is. The place is rarely busy, the food is okay, service is terrible, and a negative public reputation has formed - all of it being very apparent with results that track. But you know, best restaurant ever. A true gourmet burger shack.

Larson HATES IT when Steve gets the ratings correct 😂

Larson only being a quarter star off on all his last predictions is basically him going 6/6 by Meltzer's Kurt Angle math 😂

Wasn't expecting this until tomorrow so this is fucking great!

Another classic Friendo Club Wrestling video

Brood still has the best theme song in wrestling ever

I saw the star ratings for DoN early, Death Triangle/BBG and Cassidy/Trent were way too high imho. Jaw hit the floor on the former one

Way I see Meltzer's star ratings is this: It's not 0-5 stars, it's 0-7, until such a time where he feels there's a better match that the 7* Okada vs Omega match. Convoluted I know, but I'm just tryna make sense of it 😅

Y’all make us excited for Dave’s ratings now, just for your reactions! 4 1/2 stars for not even technically a match is wild 😂

Steve's Meltzer impression always gets me 😂 It's "very good".

But why does Takeshita hit better deathriders than Mox 👀

Anarchy in the arena has the right star rating for the action. However they played the final countdown so it’s an instant 97 stars.

4.25 for Max/Take is insane. Deeb and Storm was way better lol. Idk wtf goes on in Daves head hahaha

Why do people STILL give a shit what this messy guy says? Has he ever booked a match? Has he ever actually wrestled? Why does his opinion matter?

Okay this is gonna sound insane, but did you guys use to do gaming videos? I know for a fact i know you from somewhere, but i only got into wrestling recently but know you from somewhere

Dave seemingly, doesn't care about the story, or the build or anything besides...how was the work rate and was the crowd hot. This is why every aew match "minus women" is a floor of like 3 1/4....unless it's a Jericho match.🤷‍♂️

Show was off to an awesome start, fell off a cliff after the Toni-Deeb match.

FRIEEEENNDDDOOOOSSSS

Wrestling fans will never be happy. A company puts on a bad show and the fans jump all over them for 'putting on garbage' etc AEW put on a good show with DON and fans are complaining that Meltzer has overrrated some of the matches. People saying the Ospreay match is overrated - seriously? It was a geat match. Of course its gonna be rated well. Unless the booking of the match veered completely away from what Will and Roddy always do - put on solid/excellent wrestling matches - then this match was always going to deliver and be scored accordingly. Sure Meltzer likes what he likes and will sometimes favour scoring some matches a little higher - but thats just his opinion - does it really matter if Meltzer scores a 4.5 star worthy match as a 5 star? No. Not really. A good match is a good match. If you dont like Meltzer - fine. But hes just one guy with one set of opinons and you dont have to agree with him. But people who get upset at him rating a good match highly, thats just silly. Wrestling fans will find any reason to complain.

Let's go

Double or Nothing is a B grade show

So the schtick here is that these guys make fun of Meltzer because he's biased in favor of AEW, instead of being like them, or biased against AEW.
