The Dudley Boyz and Hardy Boyz had an intense rivalry during the Attitude Era, featuring high-risk ladder matches which put both tag teams on he map. And now, after they had their final ever match against each other at last weekend’s Bound For Glory, Bully Ray has boldly proclaimed on Busted Open that it was a five-star match, noting, “the criteria for the five-star match is the fans.”
Typically, when fans talk about five-star matches, they’re referring to Dave Meltzer’s rating system, which he introduced in 1982. And while most think five stars is the definition of a flawless match, in 2018, Kazuchika Okada vs. Kenny Omega at Dominion 6.9 in Osaka-jo Hall was given seven stars. Therefore, for those who follow Meltzer’s ratings religiously, this is considered the greatest match ever, and with Will Ospreay having the most individual five-star matches, a staggering 54, he is in contention for the best in-ring performer of all time.
