During his Twitch stream, AEW star Kenny Omega commented on longtime wrestling analyst Dave Meltzer’s “star ratings” system. Omega said the following about “breaking” Meltzer’s scale by having matches that were rated higher than five stars…

“He’s jumped the f*cking shark so it doesn’t count for much anymore. He has jumped the motherf*cking shark, and guess who is to blame for that? Me. I’m the guy. I broke the scale, it f*cked up something in his brain where he doesn’t even know what good match is anymore… I think he just doesn’t understand it anymore, he cant comprehend what’s going on.” (quote courtesy of SEScoops.com)

Meltzer issued a response via Twitter/X by noting that Omega’s comments were meant to help build up a match against Will Ospreay. Meltzer wrote the following…

“Omega and Ospreay are building a feud. It’s part of the angle.”
