Yeah, I did recall there being several 5* matches in the last few years, but this is the first time I've seen anything given a quarter of a star on top of that in NXT. Not just reserved for New Japan main events of a few years back, then? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meltzer went above 5 for Gargano/Cole, WALTER/Bate and the recent WALTER/Dragunov matches. Meltzer gave ****** to Omega/Page vs. Young Bucks at AEW Revolution 2020. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
