All of Dave Meltzer's 5 start Matches (LINK)

Well, not ALL of them. Some just don't have video up on the net, sad to say. But this is pretty goddamned comprehensive.

Before anybody complains about a match being missing or how the older matches don't stack up or whatever: wrestling ratings, even from an expert like Meltzer (and Dave Meltzer is as comprehensive a wrestling critic as has ever lived) are still subjective. Plenty of people think that he systematically underrated WWF matches during the 1980s, for example (Savage/Steamboat at WrestleMania 3 only got four and a half stars), and he's never watched enough lucha by his own admission. On top of that we have to take into account that a five-star match in 1988 probably wouldn't be a five-star match today because the sport evolves and changes.

But still: this is a SHIT-TON of awesome wrestling here, people. Do you want to become a fan of All-Japan Strong Style for life? Start clicking on anything with Misawa or Kobashi in it, then work your way out. Want to see some amazing lucha? There's some here, including the absolutely insane Los Gringos Locos match from When Worlds Collide in 1994 where the fans were about ready to MURDER Eddie Guerrero if he won the match. Want to see what women's wrestling REALLY is supposed to look like? Those AJPW women's links will school you on why Manami Toyota is basically the best wrestler who has ever lived ever, male or female (I personally recommend the Toyota/Aja Kong match or the final Toyota/Hokuto).
So, enjoy. This is RASSLIN EDUCATION right here, folks.
