>Ric Flair calls Dave Meltzer the second
>most influential man in professional wrestling
>after Vince McMahon.

>He also said wrestlers always ask what
>Meltzer has said about them

So, quite possibly the greatest professional wrestler (many legends' favorite wrestler) says Dave Meltzer is highly respected. So, I guess this means that NJPW really is, dare I say, THE GREATEST ORGANIZATION IN PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING TODAY.

Have a nice day!

You don't like his respected opinion so you slander him. Admit it, you lost.
>>
>>2757725
same with 90% of old wrestlers

Reminder that Bret also highly regards Meltz and was proud to receive praise from him

In other words, the wrestlers who were talented enough to carry matches with even the worst wrestlers in the business. The actual, "wrestlers".

Stop deflecting from the topic at hand, which is that Dave Meltzer is respected by the sixteen time world champion, and hero to the legends, The Nature Boy Ric Flair. Jim Ross also highly respects Meltzer.

Ric Flair and Bret Hart arguing about who Dave Meltzer thought was a better wrestler:

>Ric Flair actually read The Observer Live on

And people say that Dave isn't respected... Haha!
>>
>>2757790

The only people who don't respect Meltzer are the shitty guys who couldn't work or draw unless they were working with an actual godd worker and a draw like Flair.
>>
Makes sense. Flair helped ruin wrestling and turn it into dude workrate lmao flipz and divez instead of the matwork based style of Buddy Rogers and Lou Thesz.

Where else have I seen two workers wrestle to a 60 minute draw recently... I'm trying to remember...

Also, when does Ric Flair so flips and dives?

>>2757718
If wrestlers respect his opinion, that's one thing.
But saying he's influential, that's another because i'm not seeing it.
>>
>>2757815
*do
>>
>>2757809
You wouldn't have the testicular fortitude to say that to Arn Anderson's face.
>>
Meltzer has autism. He loves the repetitvness of the Flairs oner the top turnbuckle spot in every match. The Woooos also communicate to the autistic community and it's a calming mechanism

Meltzer's Dominion ratings when

Hopefully soon. He says it was the best show he has seen in ages. It will probably win The Observers show of the year.

He's not saying at all that he's highly respected based on your post.
Him being the second most influential man in professional wrestling and Flair saying wrestlers always ask what Meltzer said about them could be pretty much himself saying what's wrong with the business right now, which is precisely the fact that the wrestlers are listening to that hack and others "critics" or "journalists" online and are basing all of their success in the snowflake star ratings they give to the matches.
Even Scott Steiner referenced this issue in a promo, basically saying "don't ask for those marks opinions, ask us (the legends, the people that had ACTUALLY wrestled) what do we think of your matches, we'll tell you that you suck".

In the issue of if NJPW is the greatest organization in professional wrestling today... No, and Meltzer shilling about it and giving them 50 stars a match isn't going to change that, at all, just like he couldn't kill Vince in the 90's with all those stories about the steroid trials or right now that he's obviously trying to elevate the career of Kenny Omega
>>
>>2758047
Ric Flair said to Dave Meltzer that he is highly respected in the interview. Listen to it. It's very entertaining and has a lot of great stories from the 80s.
>>
>>2758047
Where the hell do you guys get that Meltzer is trying to sabotage Vince or the WWE? Despite smarks despising Roman and smarks are Meltzer's target audience Meltzer still praises Roman and his work rate.
>>
>>2758092
E Drones are delicate little snowflakes that feel threatened whenever somebody like Meltz criticizes the product (while defending it, mind you)

They basically cherry pick criticisms and ignore how Dave Meltzer defends shitty booking / storylines / character development, etc

Same E Drones who fucken nutted themselves when Dave rated MITB 2011, 5 Stars

Ric Flair is a shitty husband, having been divorced. He is a shitty father, one of his children died from an OD and another has nude pictures all over the internet. Flair has shitty judgement, his opinion is meaningless
>>
Lol literally no one doubts Meltzer's influence in the industry outside of the delusional autsitic /asp/ posters who anti-smark shitpost because Nash told them to.

When Meltzer gave Okada / Omega 6 stars Stone Cold watched it then had Meltzer on his show so they could talk about how right he is for an hour. Even fucking Cornette respects Meltzer and the guy is a walking symbol of everything Cornette hates.
