Dave Meltzer's 8 Most Controversial Star Ratings
4. Okada Vs. Omega II (6.25 Stars)
Who doesn't love arguing about quarter-star differentials? If you think people get miffed when Meltzer rates an amazing WWE match 4.75 stars, just imagine what they thought when he added a quarter star to a 6-star rating.
Last year at Dominion, Okada and Omega had their rematch which went to a 60-minute draw. Despite the protracted length, it was an epic, fast-paced encounter that never felt like it overstayed its welcome. Most who watched it thought it was on the level, if not, even better than the Wrestle Kingdom match.
Meltzer agreed, giving the match a whopping 6.25 stars. If fans hadn't thought Big Dave had jumped the shark before, they were thinking he had at least bought a pair of water skis.
I mean, come on! At what point does it stop, Daddy Dave? Oh Daddy, please stop! How could you defile your once sacred five-star rating system? Do all the 5-star matches of old mean nothing anymore? How could the man who popularized the system go and break it?
Well, about that...
