5 Star Matches - End of Half Year Awards

Now that the first half of the year is over, it's time that I give you my 5 star matches of the year so far. There have been 15 of them, and unsurprisingly they have all been inside of a NJPW ring. If you want my opinion for best bout, it's either between Ospreay/Takagi, Ospreay/ELP or Ibushi/ZSJ. And FUCK Dave Memezter's stars, that hack gave Chody/Gaydust 5 stars, what a fucking joke!

What did you think of Ospreay/Eagles from Southern Showdown? I think that may be another five star performance for Will, but maybe I just really love the story that plays out with ti.

I hope to God this thread draws enough yous to be worth the effort, for your own sake

4.75 stars. A phenomenal match with a really good story. I heard that if you were there in person you'd think it was 5 stars.

Right on. The crowd wasn't mic'd well so that definitely hurt the broadcast.

No one fucking asked holy shit

For me, its Ospreay vs Shingo

Ibushi vs KENTA may top it however

ya havin a bit of a seethe over there, lil man?
that could well top it. the second half of the year looks strong with G1 and Super J Cup

Seth Rollins/Becky Lynch vs. Baron Corbin/Lacey Evans is an easy 5 star match, coming up.

For sure, post-elite njpw looks stronger by the day. This G1 is going to be great, especially since im an Aussie who doesnt get fucked by timezones.

>it's time that I give you my 5 star matches of the year so far. There have been 15 of them

simp

yeah, I only gave NJPW 20 five star matches last year, and they've got 15 already this year in half the year BEFORE G1. And the only elitetard that got 5 star matches was Kennyetty, the rest just sucked up time from superior workers who are now in that spotlight generating more classic bouts
bitch

Based and accurate list.

The Kota vs ZSJ match was boring

your and idiot

All time 5 star match list (50 matches) if anyone's interested: pastebin.com/QQC5kJ9S

Okada=15
Ibushi=14
Kenny=14
Tanahashi=12
Ospreay=10

New Japan actually fucking sucks. I just made up this shill list because i’m a BBC sucking faggot.

radical list dude, totally tubular

It was, I didn’t really pay attention to it. Okada vs ZSJ was excellent but Ibushi vs ZSJ was really formulaic and, frankly, underdelivered like hell. 3.25 stars and that’s being generous

yeah I thought you might be on your phone during the middle of a match, stick to wwe you fucking moron

I was watching it on my phone you colossal retard, every time you cum in your body pillow your parents think about killing themselves just a bit more

and I haven’t watched WWE in ages ya simp, I only watch NJPW and the occasional Taleover these days

have sex

i'd give it 5. but i was there live

>not giving Battle of the Rhodes Brothers 5 stars

I wouldn’t expect you to appreciate a good carny match with an actual story but of course it didn’t have MUH FLIPS N MUH CHOPPA

ELP is based tho, we can agree on that

>only 5 star matches are all from japan

where's the US 5-star rated matches?

Ospreay vs Shingo is the only match this year that I’ve rated 5 stars :/

He's fighting Liger at the UK show by the looks of it since he laid down the challenge

If you want my opinion (I know you don’t but I’ll give it anyway) they were

>Moustache Mountain vs Zack Gibson & James Drake: NXT UK Takeover: Blackpool

>Johnny Gargano vs Ricochet: NXT Takeover: Phoenix

>Daniel Bryan vs Kofi Kingston vs AJ Styles vs Jeff Hardy vs Samoa Joe vs Randy Orton: Elimination Chamber

>WALTER vs Pete Dunne: NXT Takeover: New York

>Johnny Gargano vs Adam Cole: NXT Takeover: New York

>Kofi Kingston vs Daniel Bryan: WrestleMania 35

>Cody Rhodes vs Dustin Rhodes: AEW Double or Nothing

>Adam Cole vs Johnny Gargano: NXT Takeover XXV

Alicia Fox vs. Becky Lynch on Raw

Charlotte vs Lacey was better imo

>watching wrestling on a phone
cringe
>watching takeover
double cringe
2.5 stars WITH the blood. might have given it 3 stars if goldust wasn't stupid enough to have a red costume
hasnt been one since 2013

which ones should I watch?

all of them in order, but if you only have time for 5, Ospreay/Takagi, Ospreay/ELP. Ibushi ZSJ, Ospreay/Ibushi, Ibushi/Naito (from Dominion)

Who the fuck cares about your ratings? What authority does an anonymous shitposter has?
