Al Snow is an actual wrestling expert unlike the incredibly deluded Meltzer. Snow has been a wrestler, producer, trainer and I think also a booker across multiple promotions in his career. "Expert" Meltzer can't even tell when he's commenting on a Triple H interview which is ten years old.

Eddie Kingston has been given a five star match rating by Dave Meltzer. Kurt Angle never has. This is who people are risking life, limb, wellbeing, and credibility for.
As a musician, it’s similar to playing guitar. You might be able to play the most intricate solos from other people, and be the best shredder and play every yngwie malmsteen song, but can you write a song or a hook that people want to listen to? Can you start small and slowly progress to that big ending, that big payoff that keeps the listener engaged? Or are you just doing a 3 minute shred fest? It’s cool and all, it takes talent and a lot of hard work, im not saying it’s easy. But at some point it’s like ok well there’s no substance, nothing to grasp onto. And yes, I know there’s a market for that, again I’m not saying that won’t get you anywhere, but there is a cap on how far you’ll go as far as audience reach. If you’re ok with that then more power to you, but don’t think you can be the next Beatles just because you can play a minor pentatonic scale faster than everybody else. Just my opinion.
Thank you Al for standing up for the safety of your fellow wrestlers. The hardest thing about being a fan is seeing the terrible price wrestlers pay for being a performer. I want today's wrestlers to be able to have high quality of life into their golden years. Not trashed at 35 and hardly able to walk when they're in their fifties.
Al has earned the right - as a trainer, star in multiple promotions, wrestling historian and hardcore legend; to comment on whether AEW is allowing a style of wrestling that could get someone seriously hurt. Haters should instead be appreciative of the fact he's telling folks before it happens, so they don't end up making a life-changing mistake.
Meltzer's ratings are getting more and more ridiculous every week, his ", reports" and "scoops" are less and less accurate, he's proven to be biased, he's proven to bullshit his followers and gaslight them, he's a hypocrite and I think his influence now is at the same time greater and smaller than evet. Greater because the promoter and booker of the #2 promotion loves him and considers him a guru. Smaller because more and more fans think he's a clown.
Dave's star ratings are irrelevant to me. I actually don't like Matches with a bunch of crazy spots, and no selling. The do moves that would kill someone, and the guy gets right back up. It's actually chasing people away. It may keep the hardcore fan base, however it doesn't appeal to new people
Meltzer, I used to respect you as a fellow fan, however in recent years you reflect the attitude of modern flaky wrestlers who wrestle for each other ,and not necessarily the fans.
He's a good historian or encyclopedia for wrestling and people would not have a problem with him if he only did that But when he starts to say how wrestlers should move in the ring or what type of promos are good thats when everyone has a problem Dude never worked in a promotion or work with wrestlers to say how wrestling should work
@@neilsun2521 That's ridiculous, look at his Misawa/Kobashi ratings. They were the kings of storytelling and hardly flipped at all. Also, he's big into southern territory style, proto-MMA style (Volk Han, Takada, Zack Sabre Jr etc) as well as actual MMA.
Dave put your money where your mouth is and stop giving high ratings to matches with dangerous botchy moves. They're only doing it because it impresses you so you have a responsibility to use your platform to protect the people and also the wrestling business (which will suffer greatly if someone breaks their neck).
A lot of wrestling fans are insecure people and don’t like developing their own opinion. That’s why they look to people like Dave to tell them what they should like or not. Rating matches in a show is kind of like rating scenes in movies.
I think the reason the wrestlers do it is this: they see Meltzer's review as the official history books of wrestling, because so many mark channels mention him, including very big ones like Conrad's.
I would listen to Al over Dave without even thinking about it! Useless trivia; he's also a gent! I bumped into Al in a bar in Cardiff, Wales years ago! He was with Animal. Road Dogg and The Cat from Red Dwarf himself, Mr. Danny John-Jules! An odd group of people but all so bloody nice! Taking time to speak to people, posing for photos. They care about the fans 👍👍
"More crazy standing ovations (now) than at anytime" he says. Watch any modern wrestling show PPV or not and then watch just a regular Raw back in 98/99 and you'll see a massive difference. Everybody were on their feet and cheering like crazy. Now you can blame a lot of that on phones and stuff but still. Terrible take.
I've never been able to wrap my mind around modern wrestling. I may be old(my first live event was Bruno vs Pedro at Shea) but I appreciate some of the flippy shit. When it is nothing but flippy and dangerous shit, I just can't get into it. I look at PRO WRESTLING from the mindset of an old school street fighter and I've never once climbed up on a car to do a 450 splash in the middle of a fight. When I hear and read guys like Reigns, etc do nothing but punch and kick and I'm like um yeah, that's what you do in a fight. I'm against WWE not allowing blood also, so it's not just the indy crap. I think they need blood in cage matches etc. I'll take the stories over the "great" in ring crap any day
There is no reason to jump off the top of a cage. Wrestling needs to move away from buckaroo banzai indy break your neck crap. It really should be rare and only within the story, not because you can. Thanks Cactus.
Meltzer is in dire need of a receipt. This guy has gotten away with too much over the years. Disrespecting an actual veteran of the wrestling business who has done it all and seen it all is the final straw.....
I'm an Aew Fan and I'm am a realistic Aew hardcore fan. And real Fans call things that right & wrong! They don't simp for writers or The billionaire owners. Al snow makes sense. ( Even if the triple threat of Vince Russo, Eric bishoff and Jim Cornette... I'm not excluding Stevie Richards and Al snow he has no beef.. Both of Those guys live in reality
3:48 Oh, so I guess taste in wrestling is now objective instead of subjective, and Dave just happens to be the arbiter of what's good or not? Makes sense to me. Maybe one day Dave will actually lay out how he mathematically comes to the objective conclusions he does. Does adding 3cm of height on a frog splash give it 0.03 stars more?
I think if a filmmaker gets bad review but gets praised by Martin Scorsese, he would be happy. But why indie wrestling community values Dave is beyond me.
The point Meltzer brings up about not having to wrestle as many nights is sort of valid. But young wrestlers would benefit from more matches in their early career. Established wrestlers can demand more $ per date & work less but should try to have depth to their character & tell good stories, but they don't. So...
Do ya know what all of us fans need? What would be the ultimate show that would do HUGE Numbers for all involved? A Russo, Snow, Meltzer, Sapp, Bishoff, Hausman, LaGreca, and maybe one or two more round table discussion and just let em all go at it and air out all their views and bullshit. Now that is something I'd pay to see. And so would a lot of other people. At least I think they would haha. I enjoy the ridiculous drama though.
Al isn't in a place to criticize the wrestlers doing dangerous spots when he comes from the era of repeatedly slamming each other in the head with chairs every night.
If you also go back to the last scrum, Darby did not look too happy with Tony for booking him in matches before his Everest climb. Now that he’s been injured and had to cancel that, I have a feeling he isn’t too happy with Tony. Even though it was a preventable injury and unnecessary risk.
What’s funny is his star ratings are ALL about what he likes or not. Thats the whole premise of the star ratings! He acts like the rating is bigger than his opinion but it’s actually tied to his opinion.
If you’re good at your job you shouldn’t need anyone’s opinion or approval. Go to work do your job well and go home. Who give a shit what people think.
Although it might be more athletic with all the flips and shit its totally unnecessary because i can’t remember and don’t even watch today because its terrible but can remember when i younger and “less better according to dave” and even when i watch it back its miles better
Is there some kind of a Platonic ideal of greatness that Dave is serving then? I don't see how you can say a great match is a great match it doesn't matter if I think its one or not - who is defining it as great? The person reviewing it!! Its such bullshit.
There's a radio show/podcast up here that gives 15 minutes at the start of their second hour every week to Uncle Dave and take every thing he says as gospel/ sacrosanct
Here's a thought should a movie get a 9/10 just because I don't like certain lines from the movie? If the movie was done well and the only reason I'm giving it one less point is because I'm allowing my personal feelings to get in the way. Then isn't that not grading on performance and things that really matter? So by that standard if I think Vince Russo is bad at booking should I always give him a star or less on his matches no matter what he's doing? Or another dangerous spot you instantly get one less star cause I don't like that
