Seth Rollins has been in the pro wrestling business for many years and takes pride in delivering strong matches and compelling storylines. While he understands the influence Dave Meltzer has in the industry, Rollins has now criticized Meltzers star ratings system, making it clear he doesnt put much value in it.
While speaking onNot Just Football with Cam Heyward, Seth Rollins criticized Dave Meltzers star ratings system, calling it completely arbitrary and not based on any real statistics. He argued that its just one person watching a match and deciding on a rating without any deeper context.
Rollins pointed out that Meltzer has never been in the ring and doesnt understand the story being told, the backstage politics, or how a match fits into a larger narrative. According to Rollins, the ratings are based purely on Meltzers personal opinion and eye test, which he believes makes the whole system unreliable.
Even AJ Styles made it clear last year that star ratings in the world of professional wrestling do not really matter at all. Dave Meltzers star ratings are still popular with fans and some wrestling companies, but Seth Rollins thinks theres more to wrestling than just what happens in the ring. He says things like hard work, backstage politics, character stories, and emotions all matter, and those cant be judged with just a number.
Rollins believes people can have their opinions, but relying too much on one persons rating system isnt fair. He wants fans to think more deeply about what makes a match or story special. Therefore, its likely many fans will agree with what Seth Rollins had to say.
