1. The Authority vs. Dolph Ziggler, Ryback, & Erick Rowan - **3/4 2. Goldust vs. Stardust - *1/2 3. The Usos vs. Cesaro & Tyson Kidd - ***1/4 4. Paige vs. Nikki Bella - 3/4* 5. Dean Ambrose vs. Bad News Barrett - *1/4 6. John Cena vs. Rusev - ***1/2 7. Roman Reigns vs. Daniel Bryan - ****1/2
Ironically enough, the main event tied for the highest rating Dave's given a Daniel Bryan match in WWE with last year's WrestleMania main event, among a couple of other matches he's had.

I always read those star ratings in Ed McMahon's voice.

Really? Damn, that seems high for a match with no doubt on the winner and a weak story. Then again, that is why I don't subscribe to his rankings, make no damn sense to me.

Reigns vs. Bryan was good, but not 4 1/2 stars good.

4 and a half?
It was good, but no where near that good.

Star ratings don't matter.

This is the sixth Daniel Bryan match that Meltzer has given 4.5 stars to, which is the highest any of his matches have been ranked during his WWE tenure.
The Best of Daniel Bryan in the WWE (according to Meltzer):
CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan (Over the Limit 2012) TLC Match: Ryback & Team Hell No vs. The Shield (TLC 2012) MITB Ladder Match (Money in the Bank 2013) John Cena vs. Daniel Bryan (Triple as guest referee) (SummerSlam 2013) Triple Threat Match: Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton vs. Batista (WrestleMania XXX) Roman Reigns vs. Daniel Bryan (Fast Lane 2014)

Granted 3 of them were 6 man tag matches with The Shield, but still he played a big part in all of them. I thought he had like 2

It's an especially high rating considering Dave very vocally thinks this Reigns over Bryan booking is depressingly awful.
Still, it was a good match.
I think he was a bit harsh on Goldust/Stardust. The crowd wasn't into it, which hurts, but it wasn't 1 and 1/2 stars bad. 2 and a half at least.

4 and a half stars? I loved the match, but no. If I was to give a rating, I'd say ***3/4.
And Stardust/Goldust was an effing DUD.

Surprised the best of 3 with Sheamus isn't up there.

Four and a half is an entire star too high.

Man, even Meltzer tries to push Reigns down our throats.

And Stardust/Goldust was an effing DUD. I liked it, and the crowd wasn't 100% dead. It told a story, it existed, I'm lobbying for two stars at least.

Reigns vs. Bryan was good, but not 4 1/2 stars good. He gave the Orton vs Reigns match 4 stars too if I recall. Don't get me wrong, they were good...but they're weren't that good.

Funny how when Meltzer commented on the Reigns/Bryan situation in terms of push everyone agreed with everything he said. But when he rates the match they had higher than they did he's apparently out of his mind

I mean like people saying he must be trying to overrate Reigns when he clearly agreed with those who aren't in favor of the big push and would have no reason to do that
